Early benchmark tests show the upcoming RTX 5060 Ti 16GB performs about 20% better than the RTX 4060 Ti 16GB. These results came from synthetic benchmarks reported by VideoCardz, though actual gaming performance might differ. According to industry sources, the new graphics card launches on April 16, 2025.

Both cards will use the GB206-300-A1 chip, which has 4,608 CUDA cores running through a 128-bit memory interface. The standard power draw is 180W, requiring just one 8-pin connector for reference models.
Testing samples sent to reviewers only include the 16GB model, which might create expectations issues when gamers buy the more...

Former victim Mai Ahmad Fatty believes The Gambia should not spend D840 million yearly for five years to prosecute ex-dictator Yahya Jammeh. He urges honest national discussion about transitional justice based on reality instead of emotions. Historical wrongs need correction, but current needs come first. Fatty survived an assassination attempt that left him with broken bones during Jammeh's rule.
He thinks a D4.2 billion tribunal wastes money that could help victims still suffering physical, emotional, and financial harm from the regime. Many victims face health problems as families struggle with the aftermath of past violence. The nation must decide between costly legal battles or giving direct support to those affected. Fatty...
Amateur cricketers from South London plan to face The Gambia national team this November. The Believers Cricket Club usually plays matches around Barnes or Battersea. Their upcoming game will happen under the British High Commissioner's observation as part of celebrations marking 100 years of cricket in The Gambia.
Team captain Ben Geffen says the club exists because members love cricket, not because they excel at it. Friends rejected from local teams decided to start their club rather than abandon the sport. After losing several local matches, Geffen contacted numerous national cricket teams seeking competition. The Gambia accepted their challenge when most others ignored them.
The team wants to document this unusual sporting event...
President Trump started an unnecessary trade war instead of negotiating better terms privately with other nations. He claims China has unfair advantages but fails to see that many American products come from there because of lower labor costs. These tariffs harm the stock market, threatening retirement savings with possible recession risks. Even Tesla faces backlash as Elon Musk supports policies that cut essential programs. Canada may seek new trade partners for national security, raising prices for American consumers.
Companies need time to create manufacturing jobs that Trump promised would replace imports. The automotive industry depends on foreign materials for production. Florida struggles to find workers after immigrant...
GMC leader Mai Ahmad Fatty called the government plan to spend D4 billion prosecuting former dictator Yahya Jammeh unwise. The government aims to use about D840 million yearly for five years on these prosecutions. Fatty believes this large expense makes no sense, given national financial limits. He thinks the money should help victims still dealing with physical, emotional, and financial harm from Jammeh's rule.
Fatty urged for an honest national conversation about transitional justice based on reality rather than emotions. The planned tribunal would cost USD60 million over five years, taking D4.2 billion from state and partner funds. These resources could support suffering victims and grieving families instead. Many victims face...
