  • 5 reasons Wi-Fi 7 adapters make more sense than a new motherboard

    1 week ago | xda-developers.com | Joe Rice-Jones

    While mobile phones usually get the newest version of Wi-Fi connectivity before anything else, the PC market is never far behind. With Wi-Fi 7 arriving and being fully supported in Windows, the majority of new motherboards equipped with wireless connectivity will feature Wi-Fi 7 chips. The (slightly) older Wi-Fi 6E is being phased out, and you might be wondering if you need to upgrade your motherboard to stay current.

    The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 2-in-1 Gen 10 Aura Edition is one of the best convertible laptops, full stop.

I use mine mostly for archival storage, but I still have the odd one or two inside my desktop PCs for files that don't need SSD speeds. Over time, they need to be re-optimized for peak performance. Over the years, I've tried many different programs to get more performance out of hard drives, and most are useless.

    1 week ago | xda-developers.com | Joe Rice-Jones

    If you're on the hunt for one of the best business laptops, you can stop searching if your budget allows. The HP EliteBook Ultra G1i is the perfect companion to grace your C-suite desktop. Perhaps that's not surprising, as HP has a reputation to maintain, and the EliteBook range replaces our old favorites, the premium Dragonfly models.
