Forward-looking: Despite The Witcher 4 being many years away from release, developer CD Projekt Red is already warning that getting the game to run on the Xbox Series X at 60 frames per second is going to be "extremely challenging." Digital Foundry's Alex Battaglia met with Epic and Charles Tremblay, CD Projekt RED's VP of technology, in Poland following the tech demo showing off Unreal Engine 5.6 earlier this month.

Don't cancel Netflix yet: I used these secret codes to unlock the full catalog of shows

Repair technician finds three of four RTX 4090s were fakes packing RTX 3000-series GPUs

Why it matters: The surprisingly common practice of replacing a high-end graphics card's GPU with a different one from a cheaper card, borking it in the process, isn't going away. A Chinese repair technician uploaded a video to YouTube showing that of the four faulty RTX 4090 cards he recently received, three of them packed RTX 3090 or RTX 3080 dies.

I'm old enough to remember when PCs were huge, looming units. They had to be big to hold all the components that made up a PC. As gaming PCs became a thing, these were even bigger because the high-end components generated a lot of heat. In turn, the heat had to be dissipated with copious amounts of airflow. Thanks to Moore's law, components have become smaller and more efficient, to the point where even a gaming PC can fit into a surprisingly compact case. Also: The best portable power stations
