Noctua plans to release a new mounting kit for its NH-D15 G2 coolers next year. The NM-IMB8 kit costs about USD 4.30 and fits Intel LGA 1851 sockets. It works with all NH-D15 G2 models and several other cooler types. Users replace their current brackets with the new ones using existing hardware. The kit shifts heatsinks up 3.7 mm and over 2 mm to better target CPU hot areas.
This helps especially with Core Ultra 7 265K and Core Ultra 9 285K processors that run very hot. Buyers can choose between standard brackets or HBC versions with curved bases matching Intel CPU shapes. Tests show the regular bracket reduces peak temperatures about 1 degree Celsius. The HBC version can lower temperatures up to 3 degrees on certain CPUs. Most users...

Fred Matiangi met with Maasai leaders from Narok on Friday as he builds support for his 2027 presidential run.

Appeals judges ruled Deputy Chief Justice Mwilu lacked the power to pick judges for Gachagua's impeachment cases. The three-judge panel said only the Chief Justice can assign judges under the Constitution. Gachagua's lawyers had argued against Mwilu sending files to Judges Ogola, Mrima, and Mugambi after Chief Justice Koome left the country. The high court judges had called it just an administrative duty.
The appeals court disagreed, saying modern technology means a chief justice can work from anywhere. They noted that Mwilu signed papers as Acting Chief Justice without proper authority. The ruling stated that Koome must remain reachable electronically worldwide. She never lost her position through death, removal, or resignation.

Some stories claimed Nyongo wanted to stop the leasing in Kisumu County right away. These reports said he worried about community...
Gambling addiction spreads across Kenya, harming many lives with false promises of quick money. Mobile betting grew into a huge business where most players lose more than they win.

People pawn belongings, sell land, and skip paying school fees to chase lost bets. The addiction leads some to depression and suicide as debts pile up...
