Killer Gaming Performance Surprisingly Compact For This Speed Awesome OLED HDR Contrast & Response Sturdy Solid Chassis & High Build Quality Nearly...Nvidia has officially revealed the GeForce RTX 5050, a new mid-range gaming GPU for desktop and laptop platforms. The desktop version will start at $249, with laptops featuring the RTX 5050 expected to begin at approximately $999. Both variants are slated for availability in the second half of July 2025.
The RTX 5050 is designed for 1080p AAA gaming at medium to high settings. It supports DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, allowing users to push framerates higher than expected from an entry-level gaming GPU.
The desktop RTX 5050 utilises the “GB207” silicon, which is fully enabled, featuring 20 Streaming Multiprocessors (SMs) for a total of 2560 CUDA cores, 80 Tensor cores, and 20 RT cores. It also includes 80 Texture Mapping Units (TMUs) and 32 Render Output Units (ROPs). The GPU's base clock is 2.31GHz, with a boost clock of 2.57GHz. It has 8GB of VRAM (GDDR6 on desktop and GDDR7 on laptop) on a 128-bit memory bus. Nvidia did not specify the memory speed, but seeing the desktop version has a memory bandwidth of 320 GB/s, we assume the memory will run at 20 Gbps. As for the laptop version, it has a memory bandwidth of 384 GB/s, meaning the memory will run at 24 Gbps.
The desktop GPU has a Total Graphics Power (TGP) of 130W, allowing AIC partners to use 6-pin PCIe power connectors, though 8-pin PCIe is also expected. The laptop variant has a TGP up to 115W. Both models feature the latest NVENC and NVDEC video accelerators and a current display engine.
KitGuru says: Do you think the Nvidia RTX 5050 has what it takes to make a stand in the desktop market? What about its laptop version?

This new headset is notable for being the first gaming-focused product to incorporate Skullcandy's patented Crusher multi-sensory bass technology, combined with an open-back design.
The Crusher Plyr 720 integrates Skullcandy's new multi-sensory bass with THX Spatial Audio and an open-back acoustic design. This combination seeks to provide a distinct auditory and tactile experience: explosions are designed to resonate more, engine sounds are deeper, and an opponent's approach can be pinpointed to a specific direction.
The open-back acoustics and positional audio tuning contribute to a spacious soundstage. The headset features dual Crusher drivers that, according to Skullcandy, allow gamers to perceive events in the game by feeling them before they are seen or heard. Unlike typical haptic headphones, the Crusher Plyr 720's drivers direct sound into the head and ears, rather than just around the latter. Skullcandy claims this results in a more visceral sensation akin to adding an adjustable subwoofer.
The Crusher Plyr 720 also offers audio management through the Skull-HQ app, allowing users to customise their sensory experience. For console and mobile gamers, THX Spatial Audio with head tracking is available via the Skullcandy Mobile App. The headset is designed for cross-platform compatibility and is available in two models: Multi-Platform, which offers wireless play on PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, PC, and mobile, with wired support for Xbox, and “Designed for Xbox”, which provides support for wireless play on Xbox, as well as PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, PC, and mobile. Both versions of the Skullcandy Crusher PLYR 720 are priced at $259.99 and will be available through the company's website and Amazon.
KitGuru says: There are not many open-back wireless gaming headsets out there, so this is quite unique.

Gamesir is one of the renowned companies offering an extensive portfolio of portable gaming products. One of their specialties is gaming controllers, especially the wireless ones. We have extensively reviewed several of their models in the past, but the SuperNova most likely exceeds them all, not just in the connectivity experience but also in the user-friendliness. Gamesir was kind enough to provide us with a review unit of the SuperNova controller. Compared to its "presumed" predecessor, the Cyclone 2, the company has integrated several new additions, including swappable faceplates, multi-platform connectivity, and much more, which we'll discuss.

Noctua has officially revealed its next-generation flagship 120mm fan, the NF-A12x25 G2. Building upon the success of its predecessor, the G2 introduces a refined blade geometry and a new motor design, promising a significant leap in performance-to-noise efficiency.
The NF-A12x25 G2 is the successor to the NF-A12x25 and stands as the 120mm sibling to the already acclaimed 140mm NF-A14x25 G2. Like its forebear, this fan is crafted from Noctua's proprietary Sterrox LCP compound, enabling an incredibly tight tip clearance of just 0.5mm. However, the G2 version pushes the boundaries further with an enhanced progressive bend impeller featuring winglets, flow acceleration channels, and a redesigned centrifugal turbulator hub.
The NF-A12x25 G2 is designed as a versatile all-rounder, delivering superb results across various applications. It performs admirably in low-impedance, airflow-oriented scenarios like case cooling and in high-impedance, static pressure-demanding situations with heatsinks and water cooling radiators. For application-specific optimisation, the fan's Advanced Acoustic Optimisation frame can be paired with the included NA-AVG1 anti-vibration gasket for a tighter seal on radiators. Enthusiasts can opt for the separately sold NA-IS1-12 inlet side spacer frame, which can enhance suction acoustics and improve flow rates in some “pull” configurations.
Noctua's ultra-low-loss etaPERF motor powers this fan, which uses its Smooth Commutation Drive 2 technology to improve energy efficiency and running smoothness. The fans also feature SupraTorque, which allows the fan to leverage additional torque headroom. This ensures it maintains its desired speed even when operating against significant back pressure, leading to superior performance on heatsinks and radiators.
The NF-A12x25 G2 is available in three distinct versions. The standard PWM model offers a maximum speed of 1800 RPM. For those prioritising silence, a quiet LS-PWM variant tops out at 1100 RPM. Lastly, the Sx2-PP combination pack is also offered, bundling two fans with a slight speed offset of +/- ~50 RPM. This subtle offset is particularly beneficial in push-pull operations or multi-fan setups (like case cooling or radiators), helping to mitigate buzzing or other undesirable auditory interactions that can occur when fans run at perfectly synchronised speeds.
Backed by a 6-year manufacturer's warranty, the NF-A12x25 G2 establishes a new benchmark within Noctua's portfolio. The Noctua NF-A12x25 G2 PWM, NF-A12x25 G2 LS-PWM, and NF-A12x25 G2 PWM Sx2-PP are priced at €/$34.90, €/$34.90, and €/$64.90, respectively.
KitGuru says: Although expensive, the first reviews suggest that it's indeed Noctua's best 120mm fan to date. However, other brands have strong alternatives for about the same price.

Despite a peak concurrent player count of almost 650k on Steam back during the launch of Season 1, the game’s honeymoon period seems to have ended – with both player counts and review scores falling.
A little over 6 months on from its initial launch, Marvel Rivals has started to see its popularity wane, with peak daily player counts on Steam (via SteamDB) consistently falling under 100,000 for the first since the game’s explosive arrival.
Beyond this, reviews for the title have also taken a turn for the worse, with recent Marvel Rivals reviews sitting at a ‘Mixed’ on Steam – with some of the concerns surrounding decreasing performance; EOMM issues; balancing and more.
That said, with the upcoming launch of Season 3, Marvel Rivals is set to overhaul how its updates are rolled out, with a new character being released each month for a total of 3 a Season.
Whether the increased rate of new content will help improve the overall experience or exacerbate current issues we will have to wait and see.

In the meantime we were offered the new FLP01 which is also retro, but is HTPC instead of a tower. Whether you like it or not, there is no denying the FLP01 brings a breath of fresh air to the world of glass PC cases that are decked with RGB lighting.

Main features
Specification:
To put this case through its cooling paces we will be using a test system consisting of an AMD Ryzen 5 9600X, Intel Arc B580 graphics card and an SSD. This system allows us to produce a substantial amount of heat and effectively test the SilverStone FLP01‘s cooling capabilities.
Test System:
For the first time in living memory we are not posting a chart showing temperatures at various fan speeds for the SilverStone FLP01. The reason is that this case puts a strict limit on the height of the CPU cooler, and this is especially true if you are using the optical drive bay. As we show in our video the drive mount over-shadows the CPU socket so your options are limited. We ended up using a lightweight Ryzen 5 9600X CPU which draws 88W and ran at 95 degrees C under load while our Intel Arc B580 graphics card ran at 78 degrees C.
Let's make the obvious point that the SilverStone FLP01 is an oddball PC case that is unlikely to interest the mainstream user.
It has quirky traditional looks and an HTPC form factor that are fun for those of us with long memories, however they won't be much of a selling point to the younger generation. Having said that, if you like retro the SilverStone FLP01 will surely be right up your alley.
The other main feature of the FLP01 is it's support for a 5.25-inch optical drive and this also presents a small problem. You have to choose your CPU cooler carefully to ensure it fits inside the case and also clears the drive bay hardware. This shouldn't be an issue for the typical low power CPU you use in an HTPC but is a severe restriction in a gaming PC.
You can buy the SilverStone FLP01 for £135.99 HERE.

KitGuru says: The SilverStone FLP01 is quirky and different but not really our cup of tea.
If Techland is known for one thing, it’s supporting their titles for up to a decade after launch with a bunch of free and substantial updates. Despite its sequel now having been out for 3 years, the 10-years-old Dying Light from 2015 is set to receive a major update later this week.
Earlier in the year, Techland announced that Dying Light 1 would be receiving an update later in 2025 in celebration of the game’s 10th anniversary. Now, the team have fully detailed the update, taking to their blog to say:
“This week, we're not just looking forward – we're rolling out significant updates for both the original Dying Light and Dying Light 2: Stay Human. We promised to support our games for a long time, and we're committed to continuing that support, right through and beyond the launch of Dying Light: The Beast.”
Described as a ‘retouch’ and not a remaster, the patch – which is set to go live tomorrow on the 26th of June – brings with it some pretty notable visual improvements.
According to the team, textures have been enhanced across the board alongside better lighting and physics based rendering “improving how metallic surfaces reflect light or react physically to the world which makes them look a lot more realistic.”
Beyond these, the maximum level-of-detail range has been extended by almost 1/3rd and up-to 8K ‘Ultra’ shadow resolution options have been added – which in combination with the improved lighting makes “a lot of surfaces that previously looked rather flat now really pop out and get depth.”
Beyond visuals, the update also remastered all the game’s OST while also adding “brand new tracks and ambient sounds throughout the game”. All in all, an excellent update – especially for free.
Dying Light Retouched Update arrives on PC, PlayStation 4/5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S on the 26th of June. Full details on the listed improvements can be found HERE.

In an interesting move, the console maker chose to use its mobile app to announce the release date for their Basketball title Drag x Drive.
Making the initial announcement via the Nintendo Today app, the company confirmed that the 3v3 Rocket League-esque Basketball title Drag x Drive is set to come to Nintendo Switch 2 on the 14th of August.
First unveiled back during the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, relatively little attention was given to Drag x Drive – with it seemingly being a somewhat smaller title in scope.
Sure enough, this seems to be the case, with the upcoming Nintendo published title available now to pre-order for just £16.99.
With the Switch 2, it is clear that Nintendo is covering all of its bases price-wise. From the £75 Mario Kart World to the £7.99 Welcome Tour (though that arguably should’ve been free), it seems we can expect a lot of variable pricing for Nintendo published games this generation.

Following a ton of great work on getting Bloodborne to work on PC, another title trapped on the PS4 – Driveclub – has reached its own progress milestone.
In the wake of the recent release of ShadPS4 version 0.9.1, one of the biggest games which was still trapped on Sony's last-gen system (Driveclub) has seen a ton of improvements.
As recent as version 0.8, the game was barely able to boot. Now however, players have been able to get in-game and mess around with various aspects of the racing title – at 60fps for the first time (though with many issues still present of course).
For context, Driveclub was released for the PS4 back in 2014, and while it received some criticism, history has been quite kind on the game – with many fans still mourning the title’s official shutdown back in 2020.
Unlike Bloodborne, which HAS to get a current-generation release at some point or another, Driveclub is likely to remain a relic of the PS4 era. As such, it is exciting to see so much progress being made to ShadPS4.
Of course, there is still a ton of work to be done, with the most recent report putting just under 10% of tested titles as being ‘playable’ on ShadPS4. As we’ve seen over the past year however, progress has been ‘progressing’ quite quickly, and so it’s only a matter of time before Driveclub is revived.
KitGuru says: What did you think of Driveclub back in the day? Would you like to see the series return in any official capacity? What PS4 exclusives would you want to check out? Let us know down below.

Popular mouse manufacturers are racing to deliver the best possible sensor, ergonomics, and customizability for gaming, but Ragnok has different plans. Instead of competing in the same category, the company is thinking out of the box to offer more "immersive" gaming experiences. After releasing its first gun-mouse, the FireGrip, the company has debuted a brand new gaming mouse called "ErgoStrike 7", which is drastically different from the previous one. Not only does it resemble an actual gun, but it also offers much more than the FireGrip. In this post, we will go through the specs, features, and performance of the […]

Thermaltake has introduced the WAir CPU cooler, an air-cooling solution designed for workstation applications involving demanding tasks like 3D rendering and AI processing.
Brought to our attention by ITHome (via TechPowerUp), Thermaltake's new cooler measures 143.2 x 115 x 165mm and features a single-tower heatsink with aluminium fins. It is compatible with Intel LGA4677 and AMD sTR5/SP6 sockets and is rated to provide a cooling capacity of up to 500W TDP. The heatsink has six 6mm diameter copper heat pipes connected to a nickel-plated copper base. High-quality solder paste is used at the interfaces between the heat pipes and the heatsink fins and between the heat pipes and the copper base to optimise thermal conductivity.
The WAir cooler is equipped with two Thermaltake ToughFan14 Pro fans. Each of these 140mm fans operates at speeds ranging from 500 to 1500RPM, controlled via PWM. The fans utilise liquid crystal polymer (LCP) blades, designed to reduce vibration at higher speeds. Each fan provides an airflow of up to 83.4 CFM, a static pressure of 1.86 mm-H₂O, and a noise level of 24.4 dBA. They connect via 4-pin PWM connectors and have a rated operational life of 50,000 hours. The fan positions on the cooler can be adjusted to accommodate various memory module heights.
Thermaltake has not yet provided specific pricing or details on availability for the WAir CPU cooler series.
Discuss on our Facebook page, HERE.
KitGuru says: Seeing its specs, the Thermaltake WAir seems quite capable for a compact workstation CPU cooler. However, those planning on getting one of these to cool a high-core-count CPU might be better off waiting for reviews or using another cooling solution that has been proven to be more robust.

That effort has already led to several rounds of job cuts, with another now set to take place starting this week.
Bloomberg's Jason Schreier has learned that Microsoft is about to announce another round of job cuts, and sources anticipate that Xbox will be hit pretty hard. According to The Verge, managers at Microsoft have already been briefed on plans, but they have yet to be revealed to lower-level employees.
This will be described as a ‘restructuring' of Xbox and will also see Xbox teams in certain regions being culled. Specifically, it is claimed that some smaller Xbox teams in central Europe will be impacted.
Microsoft had already announced plans to cut 6000 jobs across its various divisions back in May. This next round of layoffs will be in addition to that. In 2024, Microsoft also cut thousands of roles across its gaming divisions.

However, outside of this summer, we know very little about the Switch 2 release schedule for the rest of 2025. That should change quite soon, as a Nintendo Direct is now expected in July.
Nintendo skipped this month's Summer Game Fest for new game announcements but news is just around the corner. According to popular Nintendo-focused YouTuber, BeatEmUps, a Nintendo Direct is going to happen in July.
Aside from discussing the rumoured Direct, he also delved into a few of the games expected to be shown, including the likes of The Witcher 3, Death Stranding, Metroid Prime 4, Animal Crossing and new GameCube titles for the Switch 2's emulator.
Most of these are safe bets for third-party titles, as Death Stranding is now available on everything, from PS5, to the iPhone and even Xbox. CD Projekt Red and Atlus are both well-known for their strong support of Nintendo platforms. On the first-party front, Metroid Prime 4 fans are already on red alert after recent public advertisements for the game proclaimed that it was ‘available now', leading to rumours that the release date could be much closer than previously thought.

It is a weird collaboration, as Xbox has had very little to do with VR gaming over the past decade.
The Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition comes with an Xbox controller, alongside the usual motion controllers. The headset itself swaps from its typical white design to a black design, and the Xbox logo can be seen on the front faceplate.
The Xbox Edition headset also comes with three months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, so you can use the Game Pass VR app to stream Xbox console games to a virtual cinema screen in the VR headset. The bundle also includes three month's of Meta's subscription service, Horizon+, which grants access to free VR games every month.
This is part of Microsoft's ‘This is an Xbox' campaign, aiming to shift the public perception of Xbox from a console hardware brand to a platform-agnostic gaming service.

The game has officially sold a million copies in its first six days, a remarkable feat given that it is currently available exclusively on Steam.
The impressive sales figures immediately sparked questions from fans regarding a potential console release. In a response on the official Landfall X account, the company stated it's “too early to say” but expressed hope for a console launch. Given Peak's success on PC, such sales numbers will undoubtedly strengthen the case for wider platform availability.
Peak's surge in popularity appears to follow a similar trajectory to other streaming-friendly indie hits like Lethal Company and Chained Together. The game's premise, where players must work together to scale a treacherous mountain, translates perfectly into engaging stream content. Watching streamers navigate treacherous climbs and inevitably tumble offers a unique brand of entertainment that resonates with the audience. Adding to its replayability, Peak features a dynamic map that changes daily. Even if players conquer today's challenging mountain, a new one awaits them and their friends tomorrow, ensuring a fresh experience with each session.
It remains to be seen if Peak can maintain its lofty position at the summit of the sales charts or if it will be displaced by the next “flavour of the month”. For those eager to test their climbing prowess, Peak is currently available on PC via Steam.

The game began life as a modified multiplayer server for Minecraft before spinning out into a standalone game. It has been in development for over a decade and when Riot acquired the studio behind the game in 2020, many thought that the long road to release would soon be over. Unfortunately, that was not the case and now, Hytale has officially been cancelled.
Hypixel Studios is ‘winding down' over the next few months and Hytale has officially been cancelled, founder and CEO, Noxy, confirmed this week. It appears that Riot was unhappy with the ever-increasing scope of the game and slow progress towards an actual release of the game.
Noxy essentially confirms this in his statement on the cancellation, saying: “Our technical ambitions grew more complex, and even after a major reboot of the game engine, the team found that Hytale still wasn’t as far along as it needed to be. It became clear we’d need a lot more time to get it to a place where it could support the ambitious vision for the game.”
Riot has funded Hytale's development for ten years at this stage. The company first invested in the project back in 2015 and then spent more money acquiring the studio in 2020. Now, five years after that, there was still no release date in sight.
