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.

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?

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?
