XIGMATEK launched the Connect Pro 360 water cooling system with a built-in 7-inch LCD display. The screen measures 1280 by 800 pixels and attaches to the pump head through USB-C connections. Users can detach and rotate the display for different mounting positions. The screen works as a secondary monitor for computers. ARGB lighting sits behind the display and creates customizable color effects.
The pump operates between 800 and 2500 rotations per minute through PWM control. Maximum noise reaches 30 decibels from the pump unit during operation. Engineers built the pump to push coolant through 380mm tubes to an aluminum radiator. The radiator measures 27mm thick and handles typical processor heat loads effectively. Users can remove the...
ASUS released the ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5080 Dhahab CORE OC graphics card. The company follows up their previous RTX 5090 Dhahab model with another Arabic gold-themed design. Gold covers the exterior and Arabic calligraphy appears across the front panel. The backplate shows artwork of camel caravans and modern skyscrapers. Mosaic vine patterns decorate the fans on the right side.
The new graphics card runs at 2970 MHz boost speed and 2760 MHz base speed. Performance matches the regular ROG Astral RTX 5080 OC model exactly. ASUS changed only the visual appearance and kept all technical specifications identical. The card builds on existing Astral 5080 hardware without modifications. Middle Eastern cultural motifs create the distinct...
DeepCool launched two new liquid cooling systems for computer processors. The LQ240 ULTRA features a 240mm radiator and the LQ360 ULTRA uses a 360mm design. Both models work with Intel and AMD motherboards such as LGA1851 and AM5 sockets. The company backs each cooler with a five-year warranty for customer peace of mind. These systems help keep gaming computers running at safe temperatures.
The LQ360 ULTRA displays real-time data through a four-segment screen on the water block. Users can monitor CPU power usage, heat levels, workload percentage, and speed measurements. The magnetic screen rotates to match different installation angles around the processor. Engineers built the water block at 89 by 76 by 64 millimeters and connected it...
Intel showcased major advances for integrated graphics cards at SIGGRAPH and HPG 2025 conferences. The company demonstrated path tracing technology running on Arc B580 hardware with one trillion triangles. Engineers achieved 30 frames per second at 1440p resolution through improved sampling methods. The team reduced visual noise using advanced denoising algorithms similar to NVIDIA Ray Reconstruction. These improvements help budget graphics cards handle complex lighting effects.
The chip maker introduced Open Image Denoise 2 software that works across different hardware brands. Neural network technology powers the new denoising system for better image quality. Intel developed hardware-accelerated texture compression that reduces memory...
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy told workers their jobs face cuts during coming years. The company plans to reduce corporate staff as artificial intelligence takes over many tasks. Jassy sent employees a memo explaining the changes ahead. Technology giants across America embrace automation to boost profits and cut costs. Amazon has already fired more than 27,000 people since 2022.
Generative AI and automated agents will change how Amazon operates daily. Some current positions become unnecessary as machines handle the work instead. The company needs different types of workers for future operations. Recent layoffs hit the devices group and books division hardest. Jassy believes AI represents the biggest shift for business operations.
Amazon built...
Gearbox shared fresh details about Borderlands 4 as the September launch approaches quickly. Executive Producer Chris Brock told Gamereactor that the new game represents bigger changes than its predecessor brought to the series. The company focused heavily on movement abilities and world exploration for this entry. Developers wanted to evolve the formula without losing the familiar Borderlands feeling that fans expect from each release.
Senior Writer Taylor Clark explained the different comedy approach for Borderlands 4 during recent interviews. The team adjusted humor to match the oppressive totalitarian planet setting rather than the wild west atmosphere. Previous games used harsher jokes because Pandora featured lawless corporations...
AOC released three affordable gaming monitors that target budget-conscious gamers. The company expanded its G4 and G42 series with QHD displays reaching up to 300Hz refresh rates. These screens deliver competitive gaming performance without premium pricing. The Q25G4SR features a 24.5-inch display perfect for esports competition. Fast IPS technology provides 1ms response times and HDR400 support.
The 27-inch Q27G4ZR runs at 240Hz but overclocks to 260Hz for enhanced performance. Built-in speakers and DisplayHDR 400 certification separate this model from cheaper alternatives. The Q27G42ZE offers similar specifications but uses standard HDR10 technology instead. All three monitors use ergonomic stands with height, tilt, and swivel...
Samsung plans to release its Android XR headset during October 2025 according to Korean reports. The company worked with Google and Qualcomm to create Project Moohan mixed reality device. Samsung has shown the headset at major tech events and given private demonstrations to partners. Newspin reports Samsung will announce the device at September 29th Unpacked event in South Korea. Sales begin October 13th in Korea before expanding worldwide.
The tech giant may reveal prototypes during July keynote alongside Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 phones. Samsung enters the XR market with this flagship headset after months of development. The device runs Google's Android XR platform and uses Qualcomm's Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 processor. High...
SpaceX aims to launch Starship Flight 10 around June 29th according to new FAA documents. The company could fly the massive rocket just over one month after Flight 9 crashed during May testing. Flight 10 represents another attempt to master spacecraft reentry and heat shield protection. SpaceX continues working toward catching the upper stage with mechanical tower arms. The Federal Aviation Administration published advisory notices for the upcoming test mission.
Recent Starship flights have struggled with engine problems during critical phases. Flight 8 suffered from improper fuel mixing that caused system failures. Flight 7 experienced vibration issues in the propulsion systems. Flight 9 failed during atmospheric reentry after...
