    Today we're looking at quite an exciting new OLED monitor format from LG: it's a 45-inch ultrawide with a 4K-class resolution. This isn't the first time we've seen 45-inch ultrawide OLEDs, but previously they packed an insufficient resolution of just 3440 x 1440, which is far too low for a screen so large.

    What just happened? Nvidia is finally ready to unveil the GeForce RTX 5060 series today, which includes three new graphics cards: the RTX 5060 Ti 16GB, the RTX 5060 Ti 8GB, and the RTX 5060. Nvidia seems to be trying to bury the 8GB models, and there are quite a few questionable decisions surrounding this launch. Safe to say, we were unimpressed – and maybe a little confused – by what Nvidia presented to us. To start with, let's focus on the graphics cards and what they offer.

I'm pretty sure most gaming hardware reviewers play games. Getting into this business was all about a passion for PC gaming. Personally I play a ton of games each year, time permitting. Most of the big single player releases. Currently enjoying Hitman 3

John Carmack has proposed GPU and console auctions to beat scalpers. This could temporarily drive up the price of PS5s, RTX 3080s, and Xbox Series X consoles, but might eventually cut out scalpers. Details here: https://t.co/NANU5gdT4z https://t.co/3BWdPZTvaW
