Google S Ios App For Switching To Android Is Now Compatible With All Android 12 Phones

In a blog post highlighting some of the reasons for switching to Android, Google announced that its Switch to Android app for iPhone users was now being rolled out to all Android 12 phones. While Apple’s ‘Move to iOS’ app has been helping users shift to iPhone for years, Google’s answer arrived quite late and in limited fashion with the Switch to Android app that only worked with Pixels, until now....

Haswell Refresh Intel S Latest Platform Explored Asrock Z97X Killer

Yes, the Z97X Killer sports the Qualcomm Atheros Killer E2200 series PCIe x1 Gigabit LAN controller. Qualcomm says that through using cutting-edge technology their network controllers are up to five times the speed of the competition. They supposedly allow for faster downloads, better streaming video, and smoother gaming. Sounds great, but it’s a massive load of rubbish. In reality, they are just massively overpriced network controllers that perform no better than the competition....

Hbo Shares First Look At The Last Of Us Tv Series Coming Next Year

The segment runs for less than 20 seconds, but it does give us an idea of the tone of the show. Naughty Dog announced the series adaptation with HBO, PlayStation Productions and Chernobyl series creator Craig Mazin in early 2020 at the beginning of the pandemic. It will be based on the events of the first game, focusing on Joel’s attempt to escort Ellie across a post-apocalyptic US, and will consist of 10 episodes....

Heavy Nft Regulations In China Lead To Tencent Closing Its Marketplace A Year After Launch

China’s government has fought a running battle against cryptocurrency for years, cracking down on mining businesses and declaring all crypto transactions illegal last year. It has an equally dim view towards NFTs, which have several rules in the country: they must be purchased with yuan, and reselling them for profit—pretty much the main reason why most people own NFTs—is not allowed. The restrictions placed on the reselling market are crushing the business potential of Tencent’s Huanhe platform that mints and issues blockchain-based digital collectibles, reports SCMP....

Homeworld Remastered Collection Graphics Cpu Performance Final Thoughts

Like we said earlier, most of the mid-range graphics cards pushed above 100fps at 2560x1600 during the start of the game when you’re collecting resources and building/researching ships. The high-end cards went as high as 140fps and most of the lower-end solutions were good for around 70fps through this relatively uneventful phase. As the number of ships increased, however, frame rates slowly dropped. After we reached a few hundred ships we were seeing lag with the low-end and even mid-range hardware....

How To Stop Android 13 From Revealing Your Passwords

Android 13 lets users see and edit whatever is in the clipboard, but the feature could also reveal sensitive data, like passwords, to whoever else might be looking at a device’s screen. If an app doesn’t mark that information as private, activating autofill in the settings can circumvent the problem. Starting with Android 13, whenever Android users copy text, images, or other information, a bubble appears at the bottom of the screen displaying what the user just copied....

Hp Omen Desktop Pc Review Performance Overclocking And Thermals

The second reason is that on TechSpot we’ve spent a lot of time covering the major processor and graphics card launches over the past few years. Most of the CPU and GPU configurations available for the Omen Desktop we’ve checked out in the past with in-depth benchmarks and performance analysis, so rather than rehashing stuff we’ve already covered, I’ll just point you towards our review section so you can find the reviews relevant to the Omen Desktop configuration you’re interested in....

Htc One M9 Review Gpu And Nand Performance

There’s some weird results in here for the One M9, and most of it is down to various non-shader bottlenecks being hit. As you’ll recall, the Adreno 430 is supposed to be 30% faster than the Adreno 420 in shader bound tasks, but if it’s a bottleneck elsewhere, this performance advantage won’t show. In Basemark X and 3DMark, it appears as though a memory bottleneck is being hit, as the Snapdragon 810 performs to roughly the same level as the Snapdragon 805, which both have the same memory bandwidth....

Iconic Hardware Products That Made A Dent On The Pc Industry Cases And Peripherals

Silverstone Temjin TJ07 Ideally, a design should encompass both aesthetics and functionality. The Silverstone Temjin TJ07 achieved this feat as few have done before or since. From its aluminum unibody construction and its gracefully curved façade to its dual PSU/radiator support and removable motherboard tray, the TJ07 became an instant favorite with the enthusiast watercooling crowd. Silverstone continued those styling cues in the TJ11 with varying degrees of success. Cooler Master Cosmos The Cooler Master Cosmos, another large chassis geared for the enthusiast, catered more to the air-cooled system and placed a high emphasis on quiet operation with extensive sound deadening foam inserts and rubber vibration dampening for the hard drive drawers – the latter being one of the few negative points about the TJ07....

Intel Apologizes To Scavenger Hunt Winners For Delays And Reveals Prizes

Intel sent out an email to the winners of the hunt last week. VideoCardz was able to get a look at it and screenshotted the following passage. Intel is giving themselves a deadline to deliver the prizes and presumably launch the GPUs they contain: the end of summer. It sounds like the company is trying to get the GPUs onto store shelves within the next few weeks and into reviewers’ hands even sooner, which is something to look forward to....

Intel Core I5 661 Review Now With Built In Graphics Overclocking Results

This impressive 38% overclock was achieved by increasing the base clock to 177MHz, with the clock multiplier set to 26x. With 1.425v of power being fed to the processor, we arrived at a completely stable 4.6GHz overclock. In other words, users shouldn’t have any problem pushing their Core i5 661 processor to 4.0GHz. The overclock boosted the Core i5 661 performance in the CINEBENCH R10 multi-threading test by 34%, which was enough to surpass the quad-core Core i5 750....

Intel Core I7 5960X Haswell E Review A True 8 Core Desktop Cpu Application Performance

The Core i7-5960X was 10% faster than the 4960X and 32% faster than the 4790K in Excel 2013 . When testing with WinRAR we find that the Core i7-5960X is 4% faster than the 4960X when measuring multi-threading performance. Moreover, the 5960X was almost 40% faster than the 4790K. The Core i7-5960X offered a 14% performance improvement over the 4960X when testing with Photoshop CC, which also works out to little over 40% faster than the 4790K....

Intel Core I7 7700K Core I5 7600K Review Dgpu Gaming Performance

Using the GeForce GTX 980 Ti graphics card we see no real performance gains from the new Kaby Lake processors when testing with Ashes of the Singularity. The 7700K was just 2% faster than the 6700K in Overwatch and that gain can of course be put down to the higher operating frequency. The last game we looked at was Grand Theft Auto V and again small gains were delivered by the Kaby Lake processors....

Intel Core I9 7900X Core I7 7820X And I7 7800X Review

After years of remaining unchallenged, Intel is finally facing some serious competition with the arrival of AMD’s Ryzen 7 and Ryzen 5 chips. Those parts have managed to put Intel’s mainstream offerings under fire, and that’s apparently just the beginning. AMD has also announced a high-end desktop series dubbed ThreadRipper, which is expected to include a chip with 16 cores and 32 threads, while costing considerably less than Intel’s 10-core Broadwell-E offering....
