The last thing that I expected was for Ark to become the next big thing, especially with top talent like Vin Diesel jumping on board. We still don’t know a whole lot about Ark 2, but we know more than most games that don’t even have a release window yet. At first, I didn’t think there was going to be a real story. Then I dived into the DLC cutscenes of the previous title and discovered Vin Diesel does appear at the very end....

“WTF is that thing?” “That’s not a laptop, it’s a space engine!” “Who, why? What’s it do? What’s it doing right now?” “This thing is weird.” Those are just a few things my co-workers said when they saw a prototype of the Asus GX800 on my desk, the first gaming laptop with its own water-cooled dock. Now, I’ve seen a lot of fantastical things during my career as a tech journalist that rarely make it to market....

Asus ROG Flow X13 (2023) The Asus ROG Flow X13 is set to arrive in the second quarter of 2023, with prices starting at £1,899 in the U.K. (around $2,266). This is for a model with an RTX 4050 and AMD R9-HS, meaning higher-spec models will likely go well beyond $2,000/£2,000. The 2023 ROG Flow X13 chassis has had a complete redesign, shrinking its footprint by 10mm (0.4 inches) while keeping its 15-inch keyboard layout and increasing battery capacity from 62Wh to 75Wh....
Design – A welcome deviation from black and red Clad in gunmetal gray and copper, the ROG G752VS OC sets itself apart from all the red-and-black gaming laptops we’ve seen from Acer, Lenovo and MSI. Asus even pulled off a futuristic spaceship vibe without treading on Alienware’s territory, although I must admit I’m still not a fan of the overly edgy ROG logo. It kind of looks like the logo for Bad Boy clothing, which isn’t a good thing....

Two solid affordable gaming laptops that come to mind are the Asus TUF Gaming A17 and the Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3i, but which laptop is actually better? The former costs $1,099 and the latter runs for $989, so it’s roughly a $100 difference between the two. The TUF Gaming A17 is a 17-inch laptop and the IdeaPad Gaming 3i is a 15-inch laptop. Those sizes alone may very well be a deciding factor for some....
Design The 0.3-inch thick Asus ZenPad Z8 is quite slender. Its front features a simple, 7.9-inch display, with thin left and right display bezels, and its back panel offers an elegant, textile-patterned, soft-touch finish that is comfortable to hold. The ZenPad Z8’s 8-megapixel rear camera protrudes slightly from the top left corner of the back panel, and its 2-MP selfie shooter sits off-center to the right in the display’s top bezel....
The Bolt is a bit larger than an average man’s hand, but still small enough to fit into just about any bag or purse.

The back of the capture box has ports for HDMI, USB 3.1 and Thunderbolt 3....

For several console generations, Nintendo has been in a league of its own when it comes to innovating peripherals. That being said, the company occasionally thinks so far outside of the box that simple things like comfort are overlooked. A prime example is the Nintendo 64 controller’s trident-esque design, a peripheral seemingly designed for those among us with three hands. While (drift-issues aside) the Nintendo Switch’s Joy-Cons are incredible bits of tech — offering fantastic motion and local multiplayer support — there are a slew of alternative controllers that offer anything from nostalgic authenticity to enhanced ergonomic support....
