THIS ISSUE of Maximum PC is filled with glimpses into the future—nextgeneration Zen 5 chips from AMD (page 8), the future of gaming keyboards with 8,000Hz polling rates (page 49), as well as the first ARM-based Snapdragon X laptops and their amazing battery life (page 72). But as any bargain hunter will know, the release of the next big thing often results in great discounts on last season’s model. And we really are seeing some excellent bargains at the moment, particularly on items like graphics cards, RAM, and SSDs. This is why we’ve chosen to build a $999 gaming PC this issue to take advantage of all the great value PC tech that’s out there. The last time we attempted such a budget build was in May 2023, when it…

THE NEWS First Zen 5 Chips

TECH COMPANIES love launching new products at trade shows, and at this year’s Computex, AMD treated us to a major chip announcement: the first Zen 5 processors. There are six new Zen 5 processors, four desktop versions, and two mobile, codenamed Granite Ridge and Strix Point. Zen 5 architecture offers, according to AMD, an IPC (Instructions Per Clock) gain of 16 percent over Zen 4, which, as generational IPC bumps go, is about average for a change of Zen architecture. There had been some speculative rumors about a higher IPC than this, with 30 percent touted. This would have been amazing, but proved spurious. As it is, the bump is enough to allow AMD to offers “the fastest consumer desktop performance in the world”, as CEO Lisa Su proclaimed from…

APPLE WORKING ON BUDGET VISION PRO

VISION PRO is an undoubtedly impressive piece of VR kit, with a equally impressive price: it starts at $3,499. Apple has reportedly hit pause on the development of the Vision Pro 2 in order to concentrate on a ‘budget’ version. Staff have been reassigned to the project, codename N109, which was started in 2022. Apparently, the idea is to price it next to premium iPhones at around $1,600. The new version was originally slated for this year, but is now expected late next year. Going for a cheaper model first over another high-end one is probably a good call. The Vision Pro was expected to sell over 700,000 units, but it’ll be lucky to shift much over 400,000 this year. The expense is a big factor, although it isn’t without…

APPLE WORKING ON BUDGET VISION PRO

THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION has its eyes on Adobe for breaches of ROSCA (the Restore Online Shoppers’ Confidence Act). This was enacted in 2010 to protect consumers from online fees that weren’t made clear beforehand. Adobe has been pushing people toward an annual subscription billed monthly, at $59.99 a month for the Creative Cloud All Apps package. What isn’t clear is what happens if you cancel the account, because that information is buried in tiny text that mentions a “early termination fee”. You only get full details when you try to cancel, and that fee is half of any remaining months. Also, the FTC alleges that Adobe makes subscription cancellation difficult, incorporating “resistance and delay” tactics. Some customers are left thinking they’ve canceled their package, only to be billed. This…

Tech Triumphs and Tragedies

THE THEME of this year’s Computex was AI, two letters that are already getting tired pretty quickly. This year saw 1,500 companies with over 4,500 booths, and alongside the usual array of new monitors, laptops, and other kit, it also attracted myriad oddities, innovations, and more. MSI’s MEG Vision X AI drew the attention of Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger, who signed it and added ‘awesome’. The front of the case is a 1080 by 1920 touchscreen. You can run MSI’s system software-monitoring temperatures, frequencies, lighting effects, and so forth, or use it as a second Windows screen. It’s an experimental model so far. Ducky, the mechanical keyboard people, had their new One X, the first to use Cherry’s innovative MX Multipoint system to adjust the actuation points, which is cheaper, and…

NVIDIA WORLD’S MOST VALUABLE COMPANY

THE LIST of most valuable companies has been topped by big tech for years. Apple has generally been in prime place, with Microsoft and Alphabet occasionally usurping it. Now, we have a new winner: Nvidia. In mid-June, it became the world’s most valuable company by market capitalization at $3.34 trillion. No prizes for guessing why. The growth of AI has led to every other big tech company beating a path to buy its high-end accelerators. Last year, Nvidia sold 3.76 million data center GPUs—98 percent of the market. On March 18, Nvidia announced its Blackwell family, which it promised would power “a new era of computing”. The 208 billion transistor B200 chips are built into GB200 systems that are 30 times faster and use less power than the previous generation. A…

Microsoft cans Recall

PART OF MICROSOFT’S PLANS for the AI PC, or ‘Copilot+’, was Recall. This AIpowered system takes snapshots of your screen and uses OCR to produce a searchable database of text. Sounds useful, but not everybody was happy. The system is unselective, so bank details, private correspondence, and more is logged, creating a treasure trove of data for hackers and the curious. Anybody using your account has full access, itself something of a concern, but it was discovered that physical access to your system wasn’t even required. Those text files can be accessed by anyone with a Windows profile on that system, a process that can be actioned remotely. As pressure grew, Microsoft made a few tweaks, making it an optin feature, and adding some encryption. Then it limited it to its…

AMD gets hacked

A forum had a post from a group called IntelBroker that claimed to have AMD data for sale, including product, employee, and customer details. AMD investigated, and did not confirm any losses, although there was a data breach. This was followed by a report that damage was limited in scope. It also said it was working with law enforcement and a third-party hosting partner. It transpires that the data was from a vendor’s system. AMD has been suitably tight-lipped about what has been stolen, and says it is unlikely to have any significant effect on business or operations. IntelBroker has managed some high-profile breaches in the past, including one at Los Angeles International Airport.…

Audio AI watermark

Meta has an AI watermarking system called AudioSeal that can add and then detect watermarks in audio data. The digital tell-tales are distributed across the data, too small to be noticed by the human ear, but easy for an AI system to detect. Early tests show 90 percent accuracy. However, Meta has no plans to use watermarks in its AudioBox or VoiceBox tools. Why not? Online disinformation is a real and growing problem. A universal standard would be ideal—until then, something is better than nothing. At least Meta has new a policy of labeling AI content. It’s a start, but more robust embedded watermarks for AI content are needed. AudioSeal is available on GitHub if you want a peek.…

TECH TALK Intel Taps TSMC for its Lunar Lake CPUs

INTEL WAS THE LEADER in microprocessor manufacturing technology for decades, but the soon to be released Lunar Lake processors will primarily be produced using technology from TSMC. It’s not the first time Intel has used another company’s process technology, but it’s the latest CPU cores being produced elsewhere. And that’s only the start of the changes. The simple explanation for the use of TSMC’s N3B node for the main compute tile is it was better than what Intel had in the design phase of Lunar Lake. Intel stalled on 14nm process technology for what seemed like ages—it was first used in the 4th Gen Haswell chips in 2014, and extended to the 11th Gen Rocket Lake CPUs in 2021. TSMC passed Intel, and is now considered the leading foundry for semiconductor…

TRADE CHAT The battle for next-gen laptops and handhelds

THE DUST has settled on the orgy of silicon, sweat-shop capitalism, and silly AI marketing straplines that was the 2024 Computex show in Taiwan. All that’s left bar the cocktail of air-travel contracted pathogens currently laying waste to the post-Computex attendees is to decide which was the best new laptop chip announced at the show. AMD’s or Intel’s? I know what you’re thinking. What about Qualcomm’s new Arm chip, the Snapdragon X? It may well be a turning point for Arm on the PC, but there’s a long way to go, and much to prove, not least the efficacy of its x86 emulation. In reality, the vast majority of laptops are still going to use AMD and Intel x86 chips for several years to come. In some ways, Intel’s Lunar Lake…

So far, so good, but I’ve run into two annoying problems. The major one is that if I leave the server unattended for a short period, my Nextcloud client reports that the server is disconnected. If I log on to the server through cockpit, the connection is restored, but as soon as I leave the server to its own devices, it disconnects again. The second problem is that I cannot get the server to shut down on a schedule. I’ve edited both user and root…

The Best Sub-$1,000 Gaming PC pushing the envelope on value

LET’S FACE IT, PCs are too expensive. Over the last ten years, graphics card prices have soared ever upward. Regardless of whether you support team green or team red, the trend has been the same. CPUs likewise have ballooned in price, and building an entry-level gaming PC for sub-$400 is a thing of the past. That’s a sad fact, but it’s true. At launch, the humble Nvidia GeForce GTX 780 cost just $600. 10 years later, the RTX 4080 is now double that to $1,200. No matter how you split it, that cost increase tumbles down the range as well. Heck, even the 16GB 4060 Ti landed at $499. That’s half the price of our entire build here for what should be a mid-range card. After much discussion in the Maximum…

The Best Sub-$1,000 Gaming PC pushing the envelope on value

999 dollars on the wall

CPU AMD RYZEN 5 7600 WWW.AMD.COM Don’t be fooled by its understated demeanor compared to its X sibling; the Ryzen 5 7600 is no slouch when it comes to CPU prowess. Both chips feature the same core counts, the same cache, the same CCD setup, and more impressively, similar clock speeds as well, at least at stock. For your money, you get six cores, with multithreading for 12 threads, along with a base clock of 3.8 GHz and a turbo of 5.1 GHz. There’s all the hardware support you’d expect for a Ryzen 7000 series chip, including PCIe 5.0 and DDR5, but it’s the differences in clock speed that blew us away. The Ryzen 5 7600X is only 200 MHz faster on its boost clock, and although it has 900…

999 dollars on the wall

LENGTH OF TIME: One hour DIFFICULTY: Easy COMPARED TO LAST ISSUE’S BUILD, this month’s was a cake-walk. It’s nice to pivot from one complex system, with an incredibly intricate process required for even basic cable management, to a chassis that allows you to be super flexible in how you operate within it. In fact, arguably both builds are good builds—they’re just for different people, and that’s okay. They both look fantastic: one with a minimalist heart, and the other with ponderous thought and decision by every process. That is to say that the XT View is phenomenally easy to build in. This build in general, given its lack of AIO or liquidcooling of any capacity, effectively makes it a very easy build. You strip the case as much as necessary…

Minimalism is the Ultimate Sophistication

A BUILD DOESN’T need to be complicated to be brilliant. It doesn’t need to be $5,000, liquid-cooled to the hilt, or modded to the nines to really be exceptional. Sometimes, a build just needs to be. Our most memorable systems aren’t necessarily the fanciest, or the most complex, but the ones that mean the most to us; ones that we got through hard work, or ones that were there during a major life moment. Yes, Dream Machines are nice, and systems like that are aspirational and fantastic things to see, but do they hold the same weight as something like this? A PC built with purpose? That’s elegant and simple, yet powerful and impressively good value? We think not. That’s exactly what this is. To be blunt, building in the…

$999 Performance

WE ALWAYS KNEW a $1,000 build was going to be a little rough around the edges, so let’s preface this benchmark chat with a little caveat. We are very much comparing this build to a system that costs $589 more on the core componentry alone. That doesn’t sound like much, but if you took this build and poured all that extra cash into the GPU, you’d end up with a rig with an RTX 4070 Ti Super in it or better, and we’re comparing it to an RTX 4070 Super at that. Additionally, all of our testing, for better or worse, is performed at 4K to really test the limits of our GPU in question, so when you see 3 fps in Cyberpunk with ray tracing enabled, that’s definitely not…

$999 Performance

THIS MONTH’S BUILD has arguably been all about upgrade paths, and saving cash wherever possible to drop that overall price below $1,000. The thing with our builds is that we often look at them as a one-off. The reality, however, is vastly different. Even our very own systems here at the Maximum PC labs go through iteration after iteration and change after change as hardware becomes available or budgets accessible, and it’s no different out there in the real world. Our $1,000 rig is a fantastic starting point, and if you’re heading into a new semester, or looking for a clean complete rebuild after six or seven years, it’s a solid choice. But later down the line, when more funds become available, what’s the best way to upgrade this rig? There…

CPU vs GPU THE UPGRADER’S DILEMMA

IF YOU’VE BEEN a PC enthusiast for long enough, you’ll know the feeling: your once-proud system has started to feel a little long in the tooth. Back in the heyday of Moore’s Law, that might only take a year or two, but things have slowed down quite a bit these days. Every generation of new hardware outperforms the previous generation, but sometimes the gap can be quite narrow. Most of us don’t have unlimited funds, and the question inevitably becomes one of stretching your existing hardware as far as possible and choosing the most beneficial upgrades. That’s especially true with gaming PCs, where the usual advice tends to focus on replacing the GPU. It’s the pixel-pumping heart of any gaming rig, after all—why bother with upgrading any other components? It helps…

CPU vs GPU THE UPGRADER’S DILEMMA

For gaming purposes, the difference between the fastest and slowest motherboard for a platform can be quite large. We wouldn’t expect an $80 board with an H610 chipset to match a $400 board with a Z790 chipset on features or performance, and the same goes for a socket AM5 board using the A620 chipset compared to the X670E chipset. Memory support, power delivery, and other aspects can and will differ. We’ve done our best to level the playing field as much as possible by selecting some of the best components for each platform. Some elements are even the same across all four systems, like the Crucial T700 4TB PCIe 5.0 SSD for storage and be quiet! Dark Power Pro 13 1600W power supply. The SSD won’t run at PCIe 5.0 speeds…

THE GAMING SUITE

There’s no single game or game engine that will universally represent every game. This is one of the drawbacks of tools like 3DMark, because while it does illustrate some aspects of GPU performance and matches up well with certain games, it’s designed to focus on graphics performance. Some games end up being more dependent on the CPU, so we’ve tried to include a mix of engines and game types. We don’t have room on the pages of our magazine to show every score from every game for each GPU, unfortunately—you can see additional testing results at Tom’s Hardware if you’re interested (bit.ly/cpu-vs-gpu). For the performance tables here, we’re using the geometric mean of the average fps across all 19 games, which gives equal weighting to each result. We used more demanding…

WHAT ABOUT AMD GPUS?

We wanted to minimize variables and keep settings consistent for our testing, so we only used Nvidia RTX cards. AMD has competing GPUs for every generation, though it only has ray tracing hardware in the RX 6000- and 7000-series. We’d expect to see similar scaling overall if we were to test AMD Radeon GPUs, though some of the individual game results would vary quite a lot from the RTX hardware. Generally speaking, AMD GPUs of the past several generations have performed slightly better than similarly priced Nvidia GPUs in games that use traditional rasterization rendering. Some AMD promoted games, like Borderlands 3, have favored Radeon cards quite heavily, and similarly, there are Nvidia-promoted games, like Cyberpunk 2077, that favor GeForce cards. Games with ray tracing also tend to favor Nvidia…

WHAT ABOUT AMD GPUS?

7800X3D: NOT ALWAYS THE WINNER

When is the fastest processor not the fastest? When drivers, platforms, and architectures come into play. AMD’s stacked 3D V-cache used in its Ryzen 5000 and 7000 series X3D chips can dramatically boost gaming performance, though it varies by game and other factors. That’s actually not something we expected to see. We started our testing of these processors with the RTX 4080, and everything lined up pretty much as expected. As we worked our way down to the RTX 3080, 2080, and eventually 3050, however, we started to see some curious results. The 7800X3D clearly wins at 1080p with the 4080, while the 1440p and 4K are basically GPU limited. Based on that, we expected to see very little difference between the 2080 and 3050, since those GPUs are substantially slower.…

The Life & Times of Gaming Keyboards

Zak Storey takes a deep dive into the world of our favorite peripheral… …looking at where they’ve been, where we’re at, and where it’s all heading KEYBOARDS are one of the few devices that we often overlook as PC enthusiasts. Whenever we price up systems and specs, peripherals are mostly ignored outside of the occasional consideration to screen resolution. Yet the reality is that monitors, keyboards, and mice are all integral elements of any good build. So why are keyboards so overlooked? For the majority, a keyboard is the primary method of interacting with the PC. Yet, the world of keyboards has changed dramatically since the PC scene first exploded. To get a good idea of where we’ve been, and where we’re heading, we’re going to jump into the noisy…

The Life & Times of Gaming Keyboards

Where it all began

FOR ANY LONG-TIME PC veteran, the mechanical keyswitch might seem like a bit of an oddity, arriving back into the PC market after so many years, and with good reason. The first keyboards produced by IBM back in the early ’80s were actually based on a similar mechanical design. In fact, if you took the stats and specs of a Model F, and placed them side by side with a similar mechanical keyboard today, you’d be hard pressed to tell them apart, at least outside of the realm of RGB. The Model F launched with a ‘buckling spring’ style of keyswitch. Effectively, a long spring situated under the keycap would push down and bend when pressed, pushing force onto a metal plate that would make contact with the PCB below, completing…

Where it all began

Chiclet & membrane

Down but not out, both rubberdome membrane and Chiclet keyboards still have a place in modern day gaming keyboards. The biggest detractor from modern day gaming keyboards is the cost. Even for the most budget of mechanical keyboards, you’re still looking upwards of $80 for a single purchase, which can be a big investment, particularly if your budget only extends to $1,000 for a new rig. There are a number of more budget oriented keyboards out there that feature chiclet or membrane style switches. One particular type that’s becoming increasingly popular, however, is Mecha-Membrane switches, or Mechanical Membrane. These boards still feature the membrane-style contact PCB, with traces. However, each switch situated on top is now fully mechanical, making contact with a rubber dome, pushing down on the membrane itself.…

Chiclet & membrane

Modders leading the way

ONE OF THE BIGGEST developments we’ve seen over the last few years is the rise of custom keyboards among the PC enthusiast community. With a number of manufacturers out there from all over the globe specializing in the field, it’s now possible to build your own keyboard from the ground up. We’ve written extensively in the past about building your own DIY keyboard, but the basic premise hasn’t particularly changed. At its core, you need a case to house all your components, a PCB that’s going to handle all of your inputs and switches (you can now get these in optical or mechanical configs, with different pin/contact types), a plate, allowing you to mount your switches to the board for added rigidity, stabilizers for your switches, switches, and finally, key-caps. There…

The rise of Glorious

You’ve likely heard of Glorious. Founded in 2014, it started due to a frustration with gaming mouse mats being limited in size and scope, and set out to manufacturer its own larger solutions instead, building the first XXL mousepad. In 2016, it launched its first hot swappable keyboard, allowing you to change out switches on the fly. At the time, mechanical keyboards were still making their way into the marketplace proper, so it mostly flew under the radar. Today, you can build your own custom board on its site, choosing everything from keyswitches and lubrication options to keycaps. Alternatively, you can buy a barebones kit and go elsewhere to get your keyswitches, too. We reviewed another custom kit, the Ducky ProjectD Outlaw 65, in our March 2024 issue.…

The rise of Glorious

So where do we go from here? The world of gaming keyboards has never been more competitive. As the competition heats up, we’re seeing advances in fields across the board. One field in particular is in connectivity. There has been a big push recently in the world of wireless keyboards, particularly those looking to be competitive with them. Over the years, wireless keyboards (and mice, for that matter) have had a reputation as being pretty awful when it comes to latency. Couple that with a low battery life, and usually a lackluster featureset compared to the likes of their wired brethren, and they’re often disregarded. At this year’s Computex, a number of manufacturers debuted boards that re-envision that belief. Asus in particular showcased its latest Azoth Extreme keyboard, featuring an…

MORE TOOLS FOR YOUR RECOVERY DRIVE

Lazesoft’s Recovery Suite is just one tool you can add to your Ventoy flash drive as an ISO file. If you’d rather run dedicated tools than rely on a single recovery environment, you’ll find plenty online. If they can be downloaded in ISO format, they can be added to your recovery media. One major category is bootable security tools, which specialize in scanning hard drives for threats. They include Norton Bootable Recovery Tool (https://support.norton.com/sp/static/external/tools/nbrt.html), Kaspersky (www.kaspersky.com/downloads/free-rescue-disk), and Panda Cloud Cleaner (www.pandasecurity.com/en/support/card?id=1681). Choose the DVD or ISO version rather than the USB. If you use Hasleo Backup Suite (www.hasleo.com) or Macrium Reflect (www.macrium.com) to take drive images of your system, make sure you create recovery media in these, too—again, choose the ISO file, and copy it to your Ventoy rescue disc.

THE AUDACITY CONTROVERSY

In November 2022, the open-source website FOSSPost ran an article with the damning headline ‘Audacity is Now a Possible Spyware, Remove it ASAP’. The controversy touched on Audacity’s acquisition by The Muse Group. The new owners made changes to the privacy policy that seemingly gave them the right to transfer European users’ data to Russia. It also reported on users’ IP addresses being logged for 24 hours on Audacity’s servers before being hashed and saved for a year. As Audacity had no cloud-saving features, there was no need for it to connect to the internet. As open-source software, Audacity is also licensed under the GPL (GNU Public License), which allows users to freely distribute and use it. This seemed to be at odds with the new privacy policy, which banned…

YOU’LL NEED THIS WINTOYS (free from the Microsoft Store), Windows 10 or 11 IF YOU’RE LOOKING TO KEEP YOUR PC PURRING, then Wintoys is worth taking for a spin. It’s a beautifully designed tool that provides a host of tuning, tweaking, and managing options, from cleaning and optimization to maintenance and repairs. The app echoes other parts of Windows, in particular its Settings app, and you’ll find plenty of options that already exist there. But what sets Wintoys apart is that it attempts to make these options more visible and easier to access. In this guide, we’re going to give you the complete tour—you’ll discover how to use it to manage your app installs, Services, and startup items, plus clear out redundant files. You’ll also find out how it brings…

CUSTOMIZE WINTOYS SETTINGS

Wintoys is as customizable as it is comprehensive—simply click the Settings button in the bottom lefthand corner to get started. You can start by switching theme from auto (which follows your system) to either permanent light or dark. You can also toggle the backdrop between light blue (Mica) and a darker shade (Mica alt). Of more practical benefit is the ability to open Wintoys to a specific section, selected under the landing page. Below this is a slightly cryptic option for ‘persistent’ sorting and filtering. Flicking this switch on basically remembers your chosen filters and sort orders in relevant sections like Apps, Services, and the Startup apps section of Performance, instead of reverting to whatever defaults Wintoys has set. Moving on, the Shortcut makes it easy to place a shortcut…

While Wintoys provides a convenient one-stop shop for many system tools and tweaks, it’s more of an everyman utility than best-in-class. If you find that its tools fall short of what you need, consider augmenting it with the following free apps, all focused on excellence in one specific area. When it comes to uninstalling software from your PC, consider Bulk Crap Uninstaller (pictured above) (www.bcuninstaller.com) should you want to remove applications thoroughly from your system—including leftover files and Registry entries. Looking to see what impact start-up items have your PC before deciding if to remove them or not? Try the free version of Bootracer (https://greatis.com/bootracer/index.html">index.html)—check out the January 2023 issue for our guide. Also consider Autoruns (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/autoruns) for a more comprehensive start-up manager in general. Wintoys’ cleanup tools will free…

SIX QUICK BOOSTS

1. ULTIMATE PERFORMANCE POWER PLAN Provides a way to enable the ‘high performance’ power plan hidden under Power Options. Click the settings to jump to the Power Options control panel. 2. HAGS (HARDWARE-ACCELERATED GPU SCHEDULING) Another shortcut to a feature in Settings > System > Display > Graphics > Default graphics settings. Click the link to learn about how it reduces latency to improve performance. 3. STARTUP APPS Click here in order to expand the section and see how long your last boot time took, plus view and manage all of the startup entries. 4. BACKGROUND APPS Windows 11 removed the universal setting that disabled all of the background apps. Wintoys restores this setting, enabling you to free up system resources and RAM, in addition to extending battery life with…

Recover deleted files

YOU’LL NEED THIS EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE To store disk image/Windows backup USB STICK For bootable OS (System drives only) WITH THE RISE OF ONLINE APP suites and cloud storage, horrific data loss scenarios are becoming rarer. Still, as anyone who’s worked in IT knows, people don’t always engage in best practices when it comes to data storage. The subreddit ‘Tales from Tech Support’ even contains a number of stories of customers storing important documents in their Recycle Bin! In this scenario, if files are accidentally deleted from Trash, there’s no automatic way to retrieve them. Even expert PC users can fall victim to this if a failed update or malware corrupts a drive, or if they accidentally delete the wrong partition. There are many data recovery programs, but TestDisk and…

Recover deleted files

IMAGING YOUR DRIVE

In the first step, we discussed creating an image of all drives before recovering your data. This involves using Windows’ own tools via the Control Panel.Obviously, this won’t work if the Windows system won’t boot. Fortunately, TestDisk supports creating a disk drive image. To get started, you’ll need to use another device to create a bootable USB of a Linux OS that comes with TestDisk pre-installed, such as GParted. Once you’ve done this, open Terminal and run ‘sudo testdisk’. From here, you can select your system partition and partition table using the arrow and enter keys. Next, choose ‘Advanced’ in the ‘Filesystem Utils’ section. From here, use the arrow keys to select ‘Image Creation’. TestDisk will ask you to confirm the location where to store the image. In Gparted, this…

QPHOTOREC QUANTIFIED

1. SELECT MEDIA DEVICE Use this drop-down menu to select the drive with the files you want to recover. This can be the system drive, external drive, or a disk image. 2. DRIVE PARTITIONS QPhotoRec can search an entire drive, but searches are faster if you target specific partitions. If your partition isn’t listed, you may be able to restore it using TestDisk. 3. FILE SYSTEM TYPE The utility will automatically try to detect the file system type on your chosen partition. If you’re uncertain, leave the default option checked. Most Windows drives use FAT or NTFS. 4. FILE EXTRACTION METHOD By default, QPhotoRec extracts files from unallocated space. This is the most common scenario where files have been deleted. The utility also supports extracting files from whole partitions, but…

AMD’s 9000 is coming Yes, AI was on the agenda COMPUTEX 2024 has happened, and we’ve had a few announcements, first and foremost being AMD’s 9000 Ryzen series presentation. The top-line facts are straightforward: spec generally stays the same across the majority. However, it’s moving to TSMC’s N4 4nm (maybe 5nm) process, and combining that with lowering latency, TDP, and increasing the bandwidth between the L1 and L2 memory cache, the CCD, and other pipelines. That’s impressive, as it’s given AMD a 16 percent IPC performance boost, without increasing voltages or CCDs. Interestingly, that means we haven’t seen an expanded core count on the mainstream chips this generation, either, making this the fourth one in a row where core count has been somewhat stagnant. No doubt this is to retain Threadripper’s…

Editor’s Pick: WD Passport 6TB

I’LL CONFESS, my attitude to backing up information is fairly Spartan. I’ve been flattening my PC and reinstalling Windows at the slightest inconvenience for the last 14 years or so. It’s the simplest solution for me. Graphics driver issue? Flatten it. Game not loading correctly? Flatten it. Weird hardware bug that doesn’t make any sense? Flatten it. Given how easy it is to reinstall Windows, and the amount of bugs and registry mishaps it clears away, I advocate that everyone does a hard reset every six months or so. The thing is, this has also helped me develop a blasé attitude when it comes to backing up. I don’t keep anything valuable locally. All my music is streamed, and my personal files are either physical or backed up on the cloud…

Samsung Odyssey G8 OLED G80SD

SAMSUNG IS a tricky company to gauge. On the one hand, it’s a tech colossus, striding from advanced chip manufacturing to OLED panels, laptops, cell phones, and more. On the other, it is capable of some remarkable slip-ups and oversights. So where does the new Samsung Odyssey G8 OLED G80SD fit into the triumph-or-tragedy spectrum? Frankly, it’s too close to the wrong end for comfort. That’s a surprise, because in many ways, this monitor is a known quantity. It’s a 4K OLED panel with up to a 240Hz refresh rate. Several monitors matching that specification have been announced this year, and of the ones you can actually buy, they all have essentially the same QD-OLED panel used here. By the time you read these words, it’s possible that a few…

Netgear Orbi 970

NETGEAR WAS QUICK off the mark with its RS700S, one of the first routers we’ve seen supporting the new Wi-Fi 7 standard. This Orbi 970 mesh system was announced around the same time, and promised to be one of the best mesh Wi-Fi systems on the market, but faced delays, and has only just become available here. However, the Orbi 970 goes even further and faster than the standalone RS700, offering a three-piece ‘whole home’ mesh system with a top speed of 27Gbps and is capable of covering areas of up to 10,000 square feet. It’s also phenomenally expensive, with the threepiece system here costing $2,299, and that’s before you add the cost of the extra subscription services that Netgear tries really hard to sell you. Ouch. On cost, the…

Philips Evnia 49M2C8900

49 INCHES? Check. QD-OLED panel? Present. 240Hz? Affirmative. We’ve seen this before, surely? Certainly, the new Philips Evnia 49M2C8900 is not a new concept. There have been several gaming monitors using the 49-inch 32:9 aspect QD-OLED panel, not least panel manufacturer Samsung. The question is how well Philips has implemented this panel and where it fits in the price hierarchy. Features-wise, it’s at the better-specified end. Connectivity is comprehensive thanks to dual HDMI 2.1 ports, Displayport 1.4, USB-C with 90W power delivery, a USB hub, and audio out. You also get a KVM switch, which combined with that USB-C interface, makes this perfect for sharing between a laptop and gaming desktop. Further niceties include Phlilips’ Ambiglow RGB lighting on the rear and a stand with height, tilt, and swivel adjustment. You…

Lenovo LOQ 15IRX9

LOQ IS LENOVO’S new budget gaming brand, and it takes a lot of design cues from the older IdeaPad 3 Gaming machines, though gains an extra cooling vent on the side. It’s well-priced, though definitely worth paying the extra few hundred bucks for the uprated model we’re reviewing here. With an RTX 4060 and 13th-gen Core i7 CPU, it’s still not going to be competing for a place at the top of the pile when it comes to gaming framerates, but it does a good enough job considering the price point. As a fairly standard 15-inch laptop, there’s one thing that stands out about the LOQ 15, and that’s the keyboard. Seriously. It’s extremely comfortable to type on, and Lenovo has resisted the urge to do anything silly like replace…

Phanteks XT View

TALKING ABOUT a case like this is simultaneously incredibly nice and exceptionally frustrating. It’s so good that conversely, there’s not a lot to complain about. The XT View is nothing if not spectacular. Not only does it provide some exceptional features, aesthetics, and build convenience, it manages to do that all while keeping the price below $80. You get a full fish-bowl case, complete with tempered glass, three RGB fans, and an RGB light strip, plus an RGB controller built in to the front I/O, with room for expansion as well. On top of that, there’s support for all manner of cooling solutions, all of which are wellventilated, in a relatively small compact ATX tower. There’s no corners cut here at all, which for the price, is honestly insane. We’ve had…

HP Spectre X360 14 (2024)

BUYING A 2-IN-1 laptop often incurs an additional expense—a stylus—so it’s good to see that HP has included one in the box with this 2024 edition of the Spectre X360. It’s an up-to-date package all round, with the Core Ultra 7 155H (Meteor Lake) CPU powering it along. From a gaming point of view, the integrated Arc graphics are sub-optimal, but this is still a very attractive package if you only want to do the occasional bit of alien blasting. The OLED touchscreen is the Spectre’s window on the world, and it’s a lovely place to do things. No only do you get those marvellous OLED colors and blacks, but with an 1800p resolution and 120Hz max refresh rate, it was clear and bright before HP covered it in Gorilla…

Bag a software bargin

Norton 360 Premium for $29.99 WE’VE NEGOTIATED a killer deal with Norton. No subscriptions, just a one-off bargain price of $29.99 compared to the regular $109 charge. That buys you fifteen months of cover from the Norton Security suite across ten devices. Because it’s the Premium version, you get a host of extra tools. There’s 75GB of cloud storage for secure backups, plus the full version of Norton Secure VPN, both to protect your identity and provide a way of watching TV from home while abroad. Norton Parental Control provides tools to see exactly what your kids are up to on their various devices, and you also get GPS location monitoring for Android and iOS. To round things off, Norton Password Manager generates and stores passwords across all your devices,…

Geometric Future Model 4 Caliburn

THIS IS THE SECOND CASE from Geometric Future that we’ve absolutely fallen in love with recently. When it comes to outlandish design, the company is certainly not pulling its punches. The Model 4 is without question a supersmall chassis. Geometric labels this thing as a Compact 35L ATX case, and they're not kidding on that front. We spoke about it last issue in our feature build for that month, but for reference, this thing clocks in at just 15.6 x 8.5 x 16.1 inches in its smallest configuration. It does that while retaining support for up to nine 4.7-inch fans, GPUs up to 15.9 inches in length, plus full-size PSUs and E-ATX motherboards, plus you can still stick two radiators in there. In contrast, the NZXT Manta, one of our…

Glorious Model D 2 Pro 4K/8KHz Edition

OUTRAGEOUS SPEED in a featherweight chassis. That’s what Glorious is bringing to the table with the Model D 2 Pro 4KHz/8KHz Edition. This gaming mouse delivers a painfully quick 8,000Hz polling rate over a wired connection, and maintains half of that even over wireless. In other words, it’s communicating its position with your PC eight times faster than most gaming mice. Superficially, the 4K/8KHz Edition appears to be your run-of-the-mill black plastic mouse, and hardly screams quality from the outset, though this is the trade-off you have to make to shed weight. It has to be pretty simple to keep weight down, which is paramount to competitive gaming aspirations, and comes in at just 62 grams. Don't confuse the 4K/8KHz Edition with the 1KHz version, either. The latter is $30 cheaper…

Scuf Envision Pro

A CONTROLLER built for PC gaming? Imagine that—a whole controller just for us. We've become so accustomed to borrowing pads from the best consoles that it actually seems like a novel idea. The thing is, Microsoft and Sony spend big money on designing their controllers, so what can Corsair-owned Scuf bring to the table? For starters, a software package exclusive to Windows. The Envision Pro relies heavily on the Corsair iCUE application to deliver a range of functionality. Most notable are the five programmable macro G-keys running beneath the twin sticks and configurable via the application. With iCUE, they can be programmed for pretty much any function. There are also a few additional buttons, too. Each shoulder has programmable buttons, known as SAX buttons, which you activate with the lower half…

Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree

ACTION ROLE-PLAYING GAME ELDEN RING: Shadow of the Erdtree is a staggering expansion, not only for its massive size—it’s about as big as half of the original map—but for the ways it challenges the assumptions we had about the nature of its world, coming from the main campaign, and the limits of an open-world narrative. SotE rivals Dark Souls with a corkscrew world design layered with wondrous and horrific secrets to discover. From Software has perfected its command over creating a dark fantasy world layered with history and details that cement Elden Ring as one of the most creative and satisfying action RPGs ever made. Old enemies return in new contexts, weapons, and spell types stretch your approach to combat with acrobatic animations and potent synergies with existing items, and…

Cinebench R23/24 vs Geekbench 6.2.1

WE SPEND A LOT of our time benchmarking. It’s a core part of the job. In fact, no matter where you work as a tech journalist, it’s fair to say that your career very much hinges on your ability to benchmark. And not only being able to benchmark successfully (which can be as complex or as simple as you’d like to make it), but also in being able to analyze the data that those tests spit out. In a similar vein, picking the right benchmarks for your own test set is of pivotal importance. Finding ones that stress whatever it is you’re testing to the max, or providing unique workloads that are relevant both to your audience and to the product itself, is incredibly important. To that end, this month,…

Cinebench R23/24 vs Geekbench 6.2.1

> Back to the future > Thermal issues > AI, AI, oh Benefit of hindsight I recently re-read Jeremy Laird’s Trade Chat column from the February 2023 edition on page 13 titled: 'This cannot go on. It will not go on'. He wrote about $700 GPUs becoming the new price for a mid-market model: “It’s an incredibly short-sighted way to go about things…[AMD and Nvidia] are not just ripping off gamers, they’re hurting their own businesses. The longer they stick at this nonsense, the smaller the remaining market of PC gamers is going to be when they come back to their senses.” I don’t believe that much has changed, and Jeremy’s conclusion may not be accurate. AMD and particularly Nvidia make vast amounts of money from enterprise/AI supercomputer-market GPUs. The…

Sponsored by BUDGET THIS MONTH has been a little weird. In some segments of the market, the entry-level stuff has held fast. Yet, on the top end, once more we’ve had massive swings as manufacturers vie to one-up each other on volume sold, without compromising too heavily on their margins. Not one key area has gone up consistently, either. Some CPU pricing has dropped on AMD’s side (not surprising, given the announcement of the Ryzen 9000 series), and PSUs have crept up, but that’s about it. We’ve actually made some sizable changes to both our Intel and AMD rigs this month, with each receiving a new SSD in the form of the 1TB Kingston NV2, replacing the Crucial P3. Not only is the NV2 slightly cheaper at $56 versus $61, it…
