Inside, it packs the power of an AMD Ryzen 7 5800H processor that should be well up to the task of breezing through productivity workloads, as well as also being a solid performer in gaming, too. Eight cores and 16 threads also means that those more intensive tasks should be dealt with rather well indeed, with plenty of cores and threads for those apps to take advantage of. Alongside the powers of a Ryxen 7 5800H comes an Nvidia RTX 3070 GPU that should offer excellent performance at the laptop’s 2560x1440 screen....
So, you were a little unimpressed by the scale of Pokémon Sword & Shield’s Wild Area? Feast your eyes on this majestic diorama, threatening to engulf Pokémon overlord Junichi Masuda entirely!

In response to continued exposure of shady and undisclosed marketing deals between advertising and prominent broadcasters, Twitch.TV has established some new transparency rules. This is a good thing. The language used in this announcement is (understandably, given the source) a little soft on the borderline-illegal (in some countries just illegal) practices of broadcasters taking undisclosed money from advertisers to be unrelentingly positive about an upcoming game. But the rules ultimately being adopted by Twitch are admirable and should be applauded....
