Upgrading to a 1440p ultrawide monitor usually means spending well north of $400—but not today. The Koorui 34E6UC 34-inch ultrawide monitor has dropped to an enticing $265.99, down from its $499.99 MSRP. That’s a huge savings on a screen that delivers impressive performance for both work and gaming, and it’s one of the best price-to-feature ratios we’ve seen in this segment. You’re getting a 3440×1440 resolution on a 34-inch curved VA panel, which means razor-sharp text, expansive workspace, and deeply immersive visuals. Whether you’re managing multiple apps or diving into an open-world game, the ultrawide format gives you breathing room…

In a market where most budget laptops are underwhelming and underpowered, the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 is a refreshing exception—especially now that it’s available for just $449.99 with a coupon code. This model normally goes for nearly $900, but thanks to a rare price drop, you can grab a Ryzen AI-powered machine with serious hardware for less than half of its MSRP. What makes this deal so compelling isn’t just the price—it’s the specs. This particular Slim 5 comes equipped with the AMD Ryzen AI 5 340 processor, which includes six performance cores and an onboard NPU. That means it…

While AMD’s new Threadripper Pro 9000 WX chips come with wallet-busting prices, the mainstream Threadripper 9000 series is launching with no price increase over the previous generation—offering relief for high-end desktop users looking for maximum core counts without breaking the bank. Set to ship on July 31, the Ryzen Threadripper 9980X—with 64 cores and 128 threads—will be priced at $4,999, the same MSRP as the Ryzen 7980X from 2023. Given current inflation trends (about 2.5% year over year), the price freeze is equivalent to a small discount in real-world terms—about $130 less than if adjusted for inflation. This consistency stands…

Microsoft has quietly introduced a major visual shift in how you interact with Copilot—its increasingly ubiquitous AI assistant—by giving it a new animated face that reacts in real time. Reminiscent of a minimalist teardrop with personality, this new visual avatar responds with subtle expressions as you chat, making interactions feel a bit more human. The Verge first reported the discovery, which Microsoft is currently testing with a limited number of users. The feature is still experimental and not enabled by default. If you’re part of the test group, you can activate the animation by launching Copilot, clicking the microphone icon…

OLED Monitor Price Break — AOC’s 27-Inch Gaming Display Dips Below Prime Day Levels OLED monitors have been gradually coming down in price, but that didn’t stop some from jumping back up during this year’s Prime Day. Case in point: the most affordable OLED display featured during the event still ran about 20 percent higher than the cheapest models from the previous year. But if you’ve been waiting for a better value, AOC’s Q27G4ZD has just dipped to $427.69, undercutting those Prime Day prices while delivering the performance you’d expect from a solid gaming display. This monitor offers a 27-inch…

Surface Laptop 5G Expands Microsoft’s Business Portfolio with Intel Inside Microsoft has finally expanded its Surface portfolio with the long-awaited Surface Laptop 5G, a move that adds cellular connectivity to its latest generation of devices. Typically, each Surface generation includes a Surface Pro and Surface Laptop followed by a 5G-enabled variant released later—this time is no different. However, the twist lies in Microsoft’s unexpected choice to add 5G to the business version of the Surface Laptop powered by Intel’s Core Ultra Series 2 (Lunar Lake), rather than to the consumer version featuring Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Elite processor. This strategic decision…

ChatGPT’s Meteoric Rise and the Future of Interaction ChatGPT is now handling over 2.5 billion user instructions daily, according to a recent statement from OpenAI to Axios. That’s a staggering volume—roughly 1.7 million instructions per minute, or about 29,000 every second—highlighting the immense scale at which generative AI is now being used worldwide. And these are not mere clicks or searches; these are full-blown interactions where people ask complex questions, write essays, generate code, get help with work, and more. This figure represents an enormous leap from the 1 billion messages per day the platform handled just months earlier, in…

Once upon a time, desktop PCs didn’t look like the sleek black towers festooned with colorful LED lights that many gamers and creators use today. Instead, they were boxy, beige machines that resembled kitchen appliances more than modern tech gear. This classic, understated look has become a cult favorite in recent years, with various case manufacturers bringing back the retro design language. Now, MainGear has joined the trend with its own fully built desktop computer designed to evoke nostalgia while packing the latest hardware. The Retro95 is a horizontal desktop system that uses the Silverstone FLP01 case, a faithful throwback…

At the forefront is the addition of semantic search and an agentic AI assistant in the Settings menu. Semantic…
