When shopping for a mini PC, there are a lot of things to look for. The CPU is a big part of the equation, and it’s one of the things I look at first, but it’s not the most important. A powerful processor is great, but the latest and greatest from Intel and AMD don’t … Read more
I’m not one to ice Intel processors when they’ve been mired in controversy and mediocre generational improvements over the past couple of years. Many Raptor Lake processor owners suffered lasting damage to their chips due to a power surge bug, seriously damaging confidence in the company’s products.

Today’s GPUs are absurdly powerful, and there’s no denying that. Even mid-range cards can blast their way through games that would have melted high-end hardware just a few years ago. And yet, despite all this raw power, we’re still pushed to tweak settings just to get the “right” experience. Whether it’s lower latency, smoother frame … Read more
I’m sure most of us are currently obsessed with AMD’s X3D processors. This is an easy recommendation for gamers, and I completely understand why. Ever since I ditched my 5900X for a 5800X3D, I’ve been a big fan myself as it finally allowed my RTX 4090 to stretch its legs at 1440p. That’s why I … Read more
Jellyfin est l’une de ces applications auto-hébergées qui peuvent paraître simples à première vue, surtout si vous l’utilisez uniquement pour vider des films et des émissions de télévision.
