Bethesda and NVIDIA are back with another over-the-top custom PC inspired by Doom: The Dark Ages. This time, they’ve showcased a rig modeled after the game’s Skullcrusher shotgun — complete with moving parts and high-end components.

For the first time in years, NVIDIA is overhauling its graphics card release strategy in response to new U.S. export restrictions. At the center of the shift are two new models: the memory-boosted RTX 5080 Super and a scaled-down RTX 5090D tailored specifically for the Chinese market. But with reduced specs and production delays, the success of these GPUs remains uncertain.

With modern games demanding more video memory than ever, Intel appears to be gearing up for a direct response to the competition. The company has started teasing what looks like the upcoming ARC B770 graphics card, featuring 16GB of VRAM — potentially a strong rival to NVIDIA’s rumored RTX 5060. More details are expected at Computex 2025, where Intel, AMD, and NVIDIA will once again battle it out for gamers’ attention.

ZOTAC is gearing up to impress fans of compact computing at Computex 2025. Front and center are three new MAGNUS ONE PCs that challenge everything you thought you knew about size and power. Packing full-size desktop GPUs and modern processors into sub-10-liter cases, these systems are built for users who want high-end performance without the bulk.

American authorities plan to tighten export controls on advanced tech components by mandating geolocation systems in processors and graphics cards. The proposed legislation aims to prevent their use in sanctioned countries like China by tracking hardware locations in real time.

NVIDIA has rolled out the GeForce Game Ready Driver 576.40, bringing performance tweaks for upcoming titles and addressing several technical issues. The update introduces DLSS 4 support for DOOM: The Dark Ages and New World: Aeternum, while also expanding DLSS enhancement options via the NVIDIA App.

NVIDIA has started raising prices across its product lineup due to shifts in its supply chain and global economic pressures. The company is moving part of its manufacturing operations to the United States, leading to higher production costs — and ultimately, steeper prices for consumers.

TechPowerUp has put Doom: The Dark Ages through its paces, testing the hotly anticipated title on a massive range of 40 graphics cards from NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel. Their comprehensive benchmark shows how the game performs at maximum settings across 1080p, 1440p (2K), and 4K resolutions.

Modern graphics cards are putting simple passwords at serious risk — testing by Hive Systems reveals that NVIDIA’s flagship RTX 5090 can brute-force an 8-digit numeric code in just a few hours.

Tech enthusiasts and professionals were expecting early reviews and benchmarks of the upcoming GeForce RTX 5060 to surface online. But the launch may go largely under the radar — NVIDIA hasn’t provided reviewers with drivers ahead of the card’s release, effectively preventing any pre-launch testing.

Alienware has refreshed its gaming laptop lineup with a focus on simplicity and everyday usability. The new Aurora 16 and 16X models aim to deliver strong performance in a more compact package — though entry-level specs might leave power users underwhelmed.

Amid growing interest in Windows on Arm, NVIDIA and MediaTek may officially introduce their first co-developed PC processors this May. The new chips are expected to mark a broader push into the desktop and laptop market with Arm-based architecture.

ASUS has unveiled updated versions of its gaming laptops. The refreshed ROG Strix and TUF Gaming models now feature NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 GPUs, displays with refresh rates up to 240Hz, and hybrid processors from Intel and AMD. The new lineup is designed to deliver reliable performance for both gaming and creative work.

AMD is gearing up for major advancements in ray tracing technology for its upcoming graphics cards. A series of fresh patents and strategic hires suggest the company may soon close the gap with NVIDIA — potentially giving gamers more affordable access to cutting-edge visuals.

Steam’s April hardware survey confirms the trend: more gamers are switching to NVIDIA’s latest generation of graphics cards, while AMD's new lineup is still nowhere to be seen.

YouTube channel Geralt Benchmarks has put Bloodborne through its paces on the latest shadPS4 emulator builds, allowing you to play PS4 games on your PC.

NVIDIA has showcased a one-of-a-kind gaming PC inspired by Doom: The Dark Ages, featuring spinning blades modeled after the game’s Shield Saw. The striking design was created by enthusiast modder AK Mod.

NVIDIA has rolled out the much-anticipated GeForce Game Ready 576.28 WHQL driver update, combining urgent fixes for RTX 50 series GPUs with stability improvements in top games. However, not all bugs have been squashed — users are advised to proceed with caution.

NVIDIA is scrambling to patch up driver issues for its new RTX 50 GPUs. In an unusual move, the company has released a second hotfix (version 576.26) within just a week of the previous one (576.15). The update addresses 16 issues ranging from game crashes to blue screens on multi-monitor setups.

Users have picked their favorite graphics card manufacturers — and the results are pleasantly surprising. The ranking doesn’t just look at raw GPU power but focuses on engineering, cooling efficiency, and overall reliability. Sapphire, ASUS, and MSI lead the pack, while some big-name brands didn’t even make the top three.
