About two months ago HP released a teaser for an upcoming VR headset made in partnership with Valve and Microsoft. Today the company has officially unveiled this new head-mounted display (HMD): the HP Reverb G2. And boy does it look impressive, especially for us gamers.
You might be able to grab a Mac Pro wheels kit for $700, but how does a gaming PC crammed into a whole other set of wheels – a driveable toy Tesla Model S – sound? A YouTuber has posted a clip showcasing exactly this – a “high-end PC that can also be driveable” – or, put another way, “A mini Tesla that also has a PC in it”.
Cutting edge gaming peripherals company Whirlwind FX has unveiled its brand new creation: the Element keyboard. And it’s an exciting innovation if immersion’s your thing – it’s “the first content-reactive mechanical keyboard to auto-sync dynamic RGB lighting effects using on-screen analysis for event recognition” using any game.
Sony’s announced some of the finer details of its PlayStation 5 console, including many features that look rather similar to the Xbox Series X. But there’s one feature that should be quite familiar to PC gamers, too: the PS5 will support interchangeable M.2 NVMe SSDs.
With Microsoft announcing the tech specs of the Xbox Series X earlier this week, it’s about time we heard a little more from Sony regarding its next-gen console, the PlayStation 5. Now what do us PC gamers have to gain out of all this? Every little juicy detail out of these technical disclosures could also pertain to AMD’s upcoming graphics cards and the future of red team ray tracing, that’s what.
The Khronos Group behind graphics API Vulkan has announced the ratification and public release of Vulkan Ray Tracing. Delivered via a handful of open-source extensions, Vulkan is now able to offer cross-vendor real-time ray tracing support as an open standard for the first time, and a genuine alternative to the sole implementor so far, DX12.

Pictures of a gaming bed coming out of Japan got a lot of social media attention over the weekend, with TheGunrun’s “Japan has made a gaming bed” tweet gaining over 49,000 likes and 12,000 retweets. The images of Bauhutte’s ‘gaming bed’ might seem like the wet dream of those real-life South Park ‘Cartmans’ of the world who don’t even leave their gaming chair to go to the bathroom, but it’s not really a ‘gaming bed,’ is it?
TSMC’s head of marketing believes lithographic process node naming convention needs to change in the near-future. The company’s most advanced node today is 7nm, or N7, which is used across AMD’s Ryzen and Navi range, but soon it will be shifting to 7nm+ (N7+), 5nm (N5), and then onto 3nm (N3). Following that same cadence, where does a foundry go after 1nm, and will it be representative of the physical silicon?
Sony has patented a VR motion controller with the USPTO, suggesting the popular PSVR accessory might be in line to receive a next-gen makeover sometime in the PlayStation 5’s lifetime. The design of Sony’s crude patent might appear somewhat familiar to PC VR enthusiasts, too. It operates per finger tracking – just like the Valve Index Controller.
