We all want to invest in a display that is capable of handling the images that our graphics card processes. Such is its case that without a quality monitor, more than half the capabilities of a good graphics card will remain unrealised. The whole concept of an awe-inspiring gaming rig, doesn’t just rest on the […]
Big-screen gaming is a salivating prospect that most gamers dream of. Big screens bring bigger action and an overall satiating experience to most gamers. However, big screen monitors have a premium price tag attached that may become a stumbling block for most gamers. That’s where projectors come in. Here’s how to choose a projector for […]
The iPad Pro 12.9 M1 launched in 2021 comes with a mini LED panel. That extra layer or backlighting makes the overall dimensions thicker and heavier. It is now 6.4mm vs 5.9 mm. With that, Apple also lauched a new Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro, now available in black and white. The real question is, […]
Sometime earlier, during the middle of May 2021, researchers from Unisantis Electronics (which includes NAND Flash memory inventor Fujio Masuoka) revealed the new concept of Dynamic Flash Memory (DFM). It is officially introduced as a brand new volatile (power dependent) memory-based system, touted to be the ultimate replacement for current Dynamic Random-access Memory (DRAM) modules.
Intel’s Rocket Lake 11th Gen certainly did not capture the imagination of the DIY crowd even as it finally gets shipped and becomes widely available to consumers. Unlike Comet Lake 10th Gen, which eventually became the best bang-for-the-buck option at the moment, the horrible power consumption of Intel 11th Gen just showed how overstretched its […]
Launched in September 2020, the Galaxy Tab A7 is not a 7-inch tablet as its name might suggest but a full 10.4-inch device to rival all the budget tablets out there. It has all the hallmarks of a modern tablet; small even bezels, display with rounded corners and rear and front cameras that actually work.
With the same octa-core 2.0GHz processor used in the Fire HD 8 but with 3GB vs 2GB memory, the 11th generation Amazon Fire HD with optional keyboard case in the Productivity package looks to go beyond just a media consumption device but can it pull it off.
Smartphones have well and truly replaced compact cameras as the camera of choice. Smaller, more powerful than ever, and with excellent lenses and sensors, smartphones are the quintessential photography tool of the 21st century. We looked at the dozens of smartphones and listed them according to the performance of their cameras and overall image quality. […]
Just over a year since iPad Pro 2020, Apple introduces the first iPad Pro (2021) powered by the M1 chip. A major upgrade that sees the Pro line deviate from relying mainly on A series chips. The previous generation iPad Pro used A12Z Bionic chip while the iPad Air 2020 is powered by A14 Bionic, […]
Game controllers have been around since the days when Atari launched video games. Remember the 8-bit video games we used to play on consoles as a child that had wired remote controllers. I bet some of you may be feeling nostalgic now remembering about your feats in Contra or Dead Fox. For those looking to […]
The current global chip shortage has unanimously been one of the biggest cause of despair and frustration for many PC builders in 2021. Having to fall in line with TSMC’s overloaded production lines means that GPU production never satiates demand, price skyrockets, and everyone, including AiB partners and distributors take a cut in order to […]
Performance and activity levels of your PC can vary wildly. These depend on the type of task that it does, the number, and the operational duration of running programs. A heavy but clean software task might still keep your PC snappy, while a bunch of smaller, but far more numerous background tasks can bog down […]
When we purchase a new laptop, we compare the specifications of different laptops and get a device that meets our requirements. However, you would agree that there are very few laptops that come with good quality webcams. For some mysteriously unknown reason, most manufacturers seem to be happy with a low-grade 720p camera on their […]
Content Creation is relatively a new term that was not mainstream even a decade ago. The concept of ideation and creation of content has been around for a long time but the term Content Creation got associated with it with the advent of digital media. Many might argue that content creation is only associated with […]
This is 2021 and one thing you simply cannot do without is a great camera app on your smartphone. If you are still stuck with the stock camera app that came with your smartphone, you’re losing out big time on a world of photography and video shooting possibilities.
Product photography is a great source of secondary income and has become a very popular genre of photography, thanks mainly to the boom in online eCommerce businesses. More and more e-commerce stores are looking for product photographers to take professional photos of their products.

Commonly used AMD Ryzen 7 mobile processors and its specification: AMD Ryzen 7 3700U Mobile Processor with Radeon RX Vega […]
Ever since the start of the GPU crisis caused by the current global chip shortage, many enthusiasts have tried to come back to integrated graphics as another alternative source of graphics crunching power. Indeed, options such as Intel Tiger Lake Iris Xe, Ryzen 4000G, and even the older Ryzen 3000G series provide adequate performance levels […]
TDP, or thermal design power, is a term that is often thrown around by chip manufacturers as metric of performance efficiency over a perceived sustained energy dissipation value. Theoretically, this is absolutely correct. When considering chip designs, there is a considerable relation between power and performance. The higher the TDP, the more energy is required […]
Many of you have built your first computers handpicking every part. You have spent a good amount of time crunching the numbers. There are so many things to look into to make sure every component is fully compatible and optimised with the others and would work at their highest efficiency. But the component that often […]
