Intel Arc A750 GPUs Are Being Sold for Nearly Half-Price in Japan!
Despite the fact that recent driver updates have notably improved the performance of Intel’s Arc graphics card platform, I’d still honestly struggle to recommend any of them as a consumer purchase. Don’t get me wrong, they’re not bad by any stretch, but given the rather terse MSRP values Intel has…

Retail Figures Suggest the Nvidia 4070 Ti is Proving an Early Hit With Consumers!
Released earlier this month, I think it would be fair to say that the overall reception to the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Ti, from professional outlets/critics/reviewers at least, was mostly tepid.

Putting my PC gaming purchases to one side, I do still occasionally dabble in the realms of physical media. You know, actually buying a real-world tangible copy of a game. This is, however, pretty much exclusive now to when I’m buying a gift for someone (actually having something to unwrap…

AMD 7900 XT Reference GPUs are Already Getting Spotted Falling Below MSRP
The AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT was certainly an interesting graphics card, but one that always seemed to have a bit of a problem on its hands. Namely, for not that much more extra money, you could simply get its 7900 XTX bigger brother which, until recently at least, I…

Intel Bizarrely Raises the MSRP of its 12th-Gen Alder Lake Processors!
Given the release of Intel’s 13th-gen Raptor Lake processors, you’d have likely been forgiven for thinking that the cost of their 12th-gen Alder Lake series was now probably set to start dropping, even if only slightly, over the coming months. – That is, after all, typically what tends to happen…

Sony Says Getting a PS5 Should Now Be Much Easier Moving Forward!
Initially released in November 2020, it’s somewhat difficult to believe that the Sony PS5 is already over two years old. Even since it hit the market though, it’s hardly been a secret that retail availability for the console has been notably poor. – Oh sure, it hasn’t been outright impossible…

Ryzen 7000 Accounted for Just 15% of AMD’s Processor Sales in December!
I’d say that it was widely speculated that the initial sales for Ryzen 7000 processors were somewhat lacklustre following their release last September.

DDR5 Prices Fell By Around 40% Over 2022 – Is Now the Time to Buy?
The price of DDR5 memory has clearly been falling quite significantly since it made its initial debut with Intel’s Alder Lake platform back in late 2021.

Tumbling Dollar Sees Nvidia 4080’s Fall Below MSRP in Europe!
The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 isn’t exactly proving to be a popular choice among consumers at the moment. – And it’s not that it’s a bad graphics card, but more down to the fact (or perception) that for as potent as it is, it’s simply too expensive. Well, perhaps more…

Nvidia is Already Considering a Price Cut to the 4080?
It’s hardly any secret that the Nvidia 4080 is predominantly proving to be something of a flop with consumers. While it is undoubtedly a fantastic graphics card, the key issues most people seem to have with it largely come down to two points. Firstly, it is too expensive. And secondly,…

Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 Briefly Drops Below MSRP in Germany!
It’s pretty much a known fact at this point that the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 isn’t proving to be overly popular with consumers. While the 4090 continues to sell exceptionally well, it appears that consumers are simply either not interested in the 4080, or likely more accurately, don’t want to…
