There are more 4K high refresh rate monitors on the market now than ever before and we've reviewed quite a few of them, so here's an update on our top picks and which are worth buying right now.
We test all current generation AMD and Nvidia GPUs to establish FPS performance and using that data, create cost per frame comparisons to find which GPUs are the most cost effective.
Out of the box, Windows does not support .HEIC files, so you can't open photos transferred directly from your iPhone or iPad devices. But the solution is simple.
It's time for our monthly graphics card pricing update and in overly positive news, the trend towards more affordable GPUs has continued. We're inching ever closer to MSRP level pricing.
On the menu today is another 40 game benchmark -- actually 41. This time it's the 5800X3D against its spiritual predecessor, the 5800X, to see where that massive L3 cache can help out.

Making CPU cores faster rather than adding more cores is the best way to boost PC gaming performance. That's why AMD has supercharged their 8-core, 16-thread CPU to create the Ryzen 7 5800X3D with 3D V-cache.
We're comparing the Ryzen 5 5600 and Core i5-12400F mainstream CPUs across a range of games at 1080p and 1440p using four tiers of GPU: RTX 3060, RTX 3070, RTX 3080 12GB and RTX 3090 Ti.

For years, Adobe Flash was synonymous with interactive websites, web video, and browser games. At its peak, Flash Player was on 99% of desktop browsers. A decade later and it's all but gone.
The RTX 3090 Ti is an overclocked 3090 with a ludicrously high power rating of 450 watts, a ~30% increase over the original. Is that dumb? Surely sounds like it, but to be sure let's go over the benchmarks.
The Radeon RX 6800S is a lower-power, higher-efficiency version of the Radeon RX 6800M, similar to what Nvidia has been doing with what used to be Max-Q products.
