Intel has launched the latest 12th-Gen processors ‘Alder Lake’, and everyone is curious about its performance. So, today we are going to show you the benchmark of the Alder Lake processors under daily tasks, content creation, and gaming.

Packing up to 16 cores and 24 threads, the latest Intel 12th-Gen processors promise a significant leap in both single-core and multi-core performances, a major selling point for those looking to adopt the new Alder Lake platform. However, there are some caveats. If you pair the new chip with just any motherboard, the actual performance might not be as great as expected. In this article, we will highlight some of the features you may overlook regarding the Intel 12th-Gen processors and how to pick a motherboard so that you will be able to receive the best performance from the new CPU.

For gamers there is few things more exciting than major computer hardware releases. The thought of upgrading your current gaming rig to the latest and greatest or building a brand-new gaming PC from scratch is enough to have any loyal PC gamer reaching into their wallets.
With the upcoming release of Intel’s Alder Lake 12th Gen CPUs, so also does the release of the newest motherboards. But what exactly are these new motherboards all about, and why should you choose to make the move to the newest Z690 offerings?
Well, let’s take a look at the things that you need to be aware of when buying a Z690 motherboard and see why now is the perfect time to be thinking of an upgrade.

It has been a while since there has been a major release of new computer hardware, something for gamers to really get excited about. Well, that is all about to change with the upcoming release of the Intel 12th Gen CPU.
The 12th Gen CPU, codenamed “Alder Lake”, is Intel’s latest CPU offering that promises uncompromised gaming and computing performance. Team blue is determined to make a bold statement with the launch of its latest processors and now is a great time to be a PC gamer. 
However, before you head on out and build a new PC or upgrade your current gaming rig, here are 5 things that you should know before you buy an Intel 12 Gen CPU.

When we start gaming, we can’t deny that we get into “game mode”. Meaning, we stay in front of the PC for hours enjoying our gameplay. 

But it does come with its own set of negative effects like carpal tunnel, neck pressure, eyestrain, and body pains. 

Using a regular chair when gaming for long hours often leads to poor posture. This won't only limit movements, but it'll also bring about strain on different parts of your body. At the end of the day, your back, neck, and shoulders are in for pressure because of the bad posture. 

This is the reason why proper posture and ergonomics are important, and they work simultaneously for a better gaming experience. So, if you’re a gamer, a comfy and ergonomic gamespace will keep you feeling and working at your best.

Have you ever suffered from having the same exact image displayed in totally different colors on different monitors, even when the monitors are of the same model? This is because inconsistent color presentation exists on every single display, even for products of the same model. Inaccurate color calibration on a display may cause dreadful consequences for color perfectionists such as designers, video content creators, photographers, industrial designers, illustrators, etc., for they are prone to be misguided by incorrect colors, leading to chromatic aberration in their final products. Therefore, it is extremely important for content creators to obtain an accurate color presentation, but how?

Microsoft has announced the upcoming release of their newest operating system, Windows 11. We're expecting it to come out in the later months of 2021. When it's here, you can update it like usual but the computer or laptop you’re working with should be compatible with it.

Windows 11 promises to bring with it a bunch of new features and a streamlined user experience, so the question is, will you be upgrading?

To have the best gaming experience or the most efficient content creation, many people will choose to upgrade the graphics cards or processors. However, if you’d like to possess a stable platform for constant gaming or content creation, the motherboards inside your system play important roles, especially the power design on it. Only when your motherboard features a promising power design, can you get rid of those annoying BSOD (Blue Screen On Display) or system crashes.

Both the next-gen consoles, PS5 & XBOX Series X, claim the 4K/120Hz premium gameplay, delivering exceptional in-game scenes, and smooth and magnificent visual experience. But, here come the questions: can your display support 4K/120Hz gameplay? If yes, do you really know how to enable the 4K/120Hz gameplay on the console?
