Microsoft is taking a conservative approach to ongoing lockdowns in China, which threaten to extend the instabilities in the existing PC supply chain that have persisted throughout the pandemic. But company executives sounded the alarm that these new shutdowns will have an effect on PC and console sales.
During its earnings report for the first calendar quarter of 2022, Microsoft said that revenue in its More Personal Computing division was $14.5 billion, up 11 percent over the same period
Graphics card prices are returning to normal, at least in fits and starts. This is the third time we’ve spotted a graphics card at its usual selling price. Newegg is currently selling the MSI Mech AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT for $380 after a $20 mail-in rebate. That’s the original MSRP and better than the plus-$400 you’ll pay elsewhere.
The 6600 XT is a very good 1080p gaming card. You can expect solid 60 frames-per-second or more on ultra graphics settings on most games. Howeve
At one point, Windows was an operating system that you could specifically buy, take home, and install on a PC. And it still is. But more and more, Microsoft sees Windows as a vehicle for its paid subscription services, which Microsoft chief executive Satya Nadella rather elegantly spelled out Tuesday afternoon.
As part of the company’s third fiscal quarter 2022 earnings call, Nadella was asked to comment on the strength of the PC market, and the durability of the PC business long term

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 Ti is a monstrous graphics card with an interesting story to tell. It’s the first of its “Ti” kind in the flagship “90” series from Nvidia, perhaps replacing Titan-level GPUs of times past. It also almost didn’t happen, having been delayed for months and releasing right when graphics card prices started to rapidly decrease.
If the RTX 3090 Ti had a yearbook picture, underneath would likely read: “Most likely to be very, v

PC gamers know that they need the latest and greatest drivers for their graphics cards. (With a few obvious exceptions.) But Nvidia really wants to drive the point home: not only will new drivers improve overall graphics performance, they can dramatically improve the way that individual and specific games perform. These Game Ready Drivers are usually released at the launch of a new title.
Nvidia’s latest video explains exactly how these customized drivers are prepared. It’s obv
Role-playing video games are a timeless staple of the medium, but if you’ve ever owned a Game Boy, you know they’re particularly great on portable devices. Which brings us to the portable game player of the moment: Valve’s Steam Deck. With a typical focus on story and strategy over visuals, RPGs might just be ideal for the Steam Deck’s limited power.
That’s the hypothesis that Adam Patrick Murray is testing in the latest PCWorld YouTube video, putting an ast
The Steam Deck is allegedly tearing up the sales charts, but that doesn’t mean Valve is resting on its laurels. Today the company is releasing the first major software and firmware update for the portable gaming machine, adding a host of improvements to its unique Linux-based gaming OS. The update is rolling out to Steam Deck owners right now.
The most immediate user-facing change is the new login screen, something the Steam Deck was lacking. Users can now set a 6-digit PIN code, whi
