The TV industry is always changing; we see new and improved technologies being released every year. This may make you think that it is time to upgrade, but you need to be able to make an informed decision. Take HDR, for instance.
Over the past few years, as CRT has evolved into thinner TVs, and as we have witnessed plasma’s introduction and downfall, terms like HD, Full HD, and Ultra HD have…
Two versions of IP addresses exist, the IPv4 and IPv6 (version 4 and 6).
In this article, we’ll get you acquainted with their relative merits and individual significance, finally culminating in a consideration of:
IPv4 vs IPv6’s speed differences
IPv4 vs IPv6’s security
and a comparison of IPv6 vs IPv4 for gaming.
A Primer On Internet Protocol Addresses
“IP” means Internet Protocol. An…
If you have been looking into multi-GPU setups, you are probably already familiar with the AMD CrossFire vs NVIDIA SLI debate. Both of these are technologies that allow two or more GPUs to work together simultaneously.
This article should help you understand how each works and which one might be better for you. Whether or not you actually need a multi-GPU setup is a different story, but we will…
Whether it’s the fact that the 17% of people that owned a smartphone in 2008 grew to 78% of the population in ten years, or of entirely new markets suddenly emerging and quickly booming (think smart speakers and smartwatches, now at 13% and 20% respectively, as opposed to being negligibly small just ten years ago), we can very safely say that not only has the entire face of technology changed…
Ask anyone about what they’d consider the best gaming PC out there, and chances are that the answer from those who’ve experienced will be the same: one that you’ve built according to your needs and wants.
Yes, while you can qualitatively rank certain things and components, such as the best gaming motherboard or the best CPU you could utilize, there’s nothing that comes close to building a…
Your keyboard is your point of connection to your computer, and it is thus important to have one that works well with your fingers. Mechanical and membrane keyboards differ not only in how they function fundamentally but also in how they perform for users. Today, we settle the mechanical keyboard vs membrane debate once and for all, by looking at the pros and cons of each type.
What are Membrane…
You’ve probably come across the term RAID if you’ve been looking into PC storage. This article will explain what RAID is, and how different RAID levels affect overall performance.
What is RAID?
RAID stands for either ‘Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks’ or ‘Redundant Array of Independent Drives.’ A RAID system comprises two or more drives that work together to offer you multiple…
Hyperthreading both acts and sounds like something out of a 90’s sci-fi film. This article seeks to demystify hyperthreading by defining it, simplifying it, explaining how hyperthreading works and helping you decide if it’s of any use to you, cool and desirable as it may sound.
What Is Hyperthreading?
Simply put, hyperthreading is a technology – that takes advantage of superscalar…
Even if you do not know anything about tech, you have probably still heard about the 32- vs 64-bit debate when it comes to processors. But since 64-bit clearly seems to be dominating modern computing, does the debate even matter and should you care? Keep on reading to find out.
How Do Bits Work Anyway?
For you to better understand the differences between how 32-bit and 64-bit processing works…
Antialiasing is the next big thing in tech – or, at least, it’s a sensationalist way to start off an article, in spite of being pretty much meaningless and untrue. Antialiasing is a very, very powerful tool, however, one that’s often holding up the very structure of a device’s graphics, and that’s no exaggeration.
In this article, you can expect to learn what it is, why it’s needed…
Visuals on your screen – on TVs, monitors, projectors, phones, and so on – are made up of various forces interacting together. Brightness, gamma, and contrast are three things you might already know of just from having looked at the Settings on an app or device at some point!
However, of these, the most important for how rich the colors and how clearly defined the edges are that determine the…
PCIe stands for Peripheral Component Interconnect Express, and it is a standard for internal devices on a computer. If you are curious as to what the difference is between PCI Express vs PCI on its own: PCI express refers to the actual expansion slots on the motherboard into which PCIe-based cards are inserted, and sometimes to the cards themselves as well. PCI, or conventional PCI, refers to the…
