One of our favorite SSDs is on sale today and we’re super jazzed about it. Amazon is selling the 2TB Crucial P5 for $180. That’s a savings of $110.
We reviewed the Crucial P5 and gave it 4.5 out of 5 stars and an Editors’ Choice Award. “The P5 is an excellent mid-range SSD that can run with the big drives in everyday performance, and even in all but the most demanding long transfers,” we said.
The P5 also earned an honorable mention in our round-up of the
Game streamers are spoiled for choice when it comes to hardware as of late, but Elgato (now owned by Corsair) remains a perennial favorite. Today the company is announcing the HD60 X, an upgraded version of the popular HD60 S+ USB-based capture card. While its technical specifications are broadly similar, the big addition is the ability to capture game footage with variable refresh rates.
In layman’s terms, if you’re putting in an HDMI video source that can sync its framerate w
Amazon’s Fire TV Stick is a popular option for a cheap and easy-to-use streaming device for your TV. It’s small enough to be unobtrusive in your TV’s port but it still has enough computing chops to install and run apps from the Amazon Appstore.
That means you can run VPN apps right on the Fire Stick as opposed to trying to add a VPN to your router, or having to resort to a smart DNS feature—a hacky solution that’s not always as consistent as it should be.
I know people who love Windows 11. I am not one of them.
Before anyone tells me why I’m wrong—or that it’s ludicrous for a tech journalist to be against new technology—let me draw your attention to the exact problem first. I want you to right-click on the desktop in Windows 11 and tell me what you see.
Does the menu have the Refresh option? Or are you forced to choose Show more options to get to a secondary right-click menu with the desired feature?

One of the more useful upcoming features within Windows 11 carries with it a major pain point: you’ll need to reset your PC to use it.
Security was arguably one of the fundamental reasons for launching Windows 11, as Windows 11’s restrictive hardware requirements proved. And more are on their way. “In a future release of Windows 11 you’re going to see significant security updates that add even more protection from the chip to the cloud by combining modern hardware an
If you’ve ever been scared to look away for a second at your notes while in a Teams meeting, worry no longer. Microsoft is making AI-driven eye contact and a number of other productivity features part of the Windows platform, the company said in a press briefing accompanying its Future of Hybrid Work presentation on Tuesday.
The new features represent some nifty uses of artificial intelligence, on a PC platform that has struggled somewhat to integrate them. On smartphones, AI is gener
Microsoft is beefing up its PC in the cloud, Windows 365, with some additional capabilities that recognize how workers will be moving back and forth from the office as they transition back to work, including an offline mode.
Microsoft launched Windows 365 in July 2021, offering businesses the option to use a PC in the cloud, rather than a physical device at their desk. Among the differences between Windows 365 and Windows 11 includes the option for a business to “upgrade” thei
It’s only taken five years, but Microsoft’s tabbed File Explorer, called “Sets,” could finally become a reality in Windows 11.
At Microsoft’s Future of Hybrid Work event, Microsoft showed off several features that the company plans to bring to Windows 11. Microsoft didn’t provide a timetable for when they’ll be arriving, however. Some of them also are specific to particular applications; a number of features will be used for videoconferencing, for e
The most dedicated PC gamers spend hours and hours tweaking their hardware to squeeze out every possible ounce of performance. So it’s no surprise that when some AMD fans saw the latest Radeon GPU drivers resetting their hard work on a CPU overclock, they were a bit miffed. Such is allegedly the case for at least a few gamers who installed version 22.3.1 of the Adrenalin GPU driver. The software appears to be messing with the overclock settings of some AMD CPUs.
