From CNET: There wasn't a new ZenFone to be seen at Computex and it feels deliberate.
Instead of launching a new phone like last year at one of the biggest PC-focused events in the region, the Taiwanese manufacturer is going back to its roots with a launch of four new notebooks.
The new ZenBook...
From PC World: Memory’s been a thorn in the side of AMD’s Ryzen processors ever since they launched. Memory speed and latency can play a major part in Ryzen’s performance, but early AM4 motherboards haven’t been able to offer robust memory overclocking capabilities. Ryzen PCs topped out at DDR4-3200...
At the beginning of this month, I went to San Francisco for a week with a friend, and it was a pretty fun experience. We got to see all the touristy places around the city in addition to finding some lesser known spots. However, the months leading up to this trip was not an easy one. As I had never been to San Francisco before, there was a lot of things I did not know. My friend whom I was traveling with was quite busy in the months leading up...
The other day, I stopped by my colleague Jonathan Kwan’s house to pick up some new items for review. Two of my colleagues were hard at work on spring cleaning their cars, of course this was Jonathan Kwan and Aaron Lai. A short visit mainly for work, in typical APH Networks fashion, turned into a longer visit including lunch, although I had to first wait for them to finish cleaning their cars before we would leave. We talked about all the usual...

The few minutes quickly turned into fifteen minutes, yet no one showed up. I tried calling the other people, but no...
From CNET: Samsung this week showed off new display technology that looks kind of like a trampoline. The 9.1-inch stretchable OLED display prototype, which Samsung called the first of its kind, can be flexed in two directions, unlike conventional flexible OLED displays that can be formed in only one...
From InfoWorld: Microsoft is positioning its P language as a solution for asynchrony in a world where this capability is becoming increasingly vital for the cloud, artificial intelligence, and embedded systems.
Geared to asynchronous event-driven programming, the open source P unifies modeling and...
From PC World: Maybe it’s time to start paying attention to Microsoft’s livestreaming play. After acquiring fledgling service Beam last August, then integrating Beam into Windows 10 and the Xbox One, today Microsoft announced a whole raft of changes to make the service more appealing—starting with a...
From CNET: We first got a glimpse of the Nitro 5 at the Acer press conference last month, and Acer is leaning heavy on "modern titles at a mainstream price." Designed in different configurations to hit a variety of needs for casual gamers, the Nitro 5 will start at $799 in July (converting to around...
From PC World: Computex kicks off in Taipei next week, and it’s there that we’ll see the first liquid-cooled power supply for PCs in a long time: FSP’s wild Hydro PTM+.
This power supply sounds like an impressive little unit. Not only is the Hydro PTM+ compatible with custom liquid-cooling setups...
