CES 2026: Nvidia’s Updated DLSS Makes Games Run Worse on Older GPUs
Unless you run an AI data center, Nvidia’s announcements this CES have been more on the quiet end. There were updates to GeForce Now cloud streaming and its DLSS upscaling tech, but no new graphic cards. That’s fine—it’s normal for Nvidia to have a quiet year on consumer tech every now and then, and the […]

CES 2026: Lenovo’s New ‘AI Frame’ Gaming Monitor Might Actually Just Be Cheating
It’s easy to take this for granted, but not everyone is able to immediately look at a shooting or strategy game and find the reticle or map. Gaming UIs can get complicated, and for less-seasoned gamers, they can be pretty intimidating, too. Lenovo’s new concept “AI Frame” monitor, shown off at CES 2026, aims to […]

CES 2026: I Tried a Gaming Headset That Can Read Your Mind
Before this CES, I thought gaming headsets had gotten about as complex as they ever would. How many improvements can you possibly make on speakers and microphones? Well, forget all that. Apparently, the future of gaming headsets is mind reading. In a private demo with a colleague from IGN, I tested out a collaboration between […]
CES 2026: XREAL’s New Gaming Glasses Put a Huge, Fast Gaming Monitor Right on Your Face
I’ve been a fan of XREAL for a while, but outside of people who are really into AR, it’s still a lesser-known company.

This Is the Best Free Mac Cleanup Tool I’ve Found
There are a lot of apps on the market that claim to “clean up” your Mac—for a price. Some offer subscriptions, some cost a lot up front, but for the most part, they offer the same few features—wiping things like caches and logs, completely uninstalling apps, and monitoring system health. These apps all tend to […]
