Nvidia's GeForce RTX 5090 starts at $1,999 before you factor in upsells from the company's partners or price increases driven by scalpers and/or genuine demand. It costs more than my entire gaming PC. The new GPU is so expensive that you could build an entire well-specced gaming PC with Nvidia's next-fastest GPU in it—the $999 RTX 5080, which we don't have in hand yet—for the same money, or maybe even a little less with judicious component selection. It's not the most expensive GPU that Nvidia has ever launched—2018's $2,499 Titan RTX has it beat, and 2022's RTX 3090 Ti also cost $2,000—but it's safe to say it's not really a GPU intended for the masses. At least as far as gaming is concerned, the 5090 is the very definition of a halo product; it's for people who demand the best and newest thing regardless of what it costs (the calculus is probably different for deep-pocketed people and companies who want to use them as some kind of generative AI accelerator). And on this front, at least, the 5090 is successful. It's the newest and fastest GPU you can buy, and the competition is not particularly close. It's also a showcase for DLSS Multi-Frame Generation, a new feature unique to the 50-series cards that Nvidia is leaning on heavily to make its new GPUs look better than they already are.

Some of the recent Marvel Rivals character leaks might be fake, as part of a ploy by the developers to catch leakers. A big part of Marvel Rivals’ appeal is its character roster, which consists of 35 famous Marvel heroes and villains as of this writing. NetEase has promised gamers that more characters will be added as the live-service hero shooter continues its lifespan, with the only two officially confirmed at this time being the Thing and The Human Torch of The Fantastic Four.

I've seen plenty of burned-out PC components in my time, from power supplies to monitors, but I've never seen a burned-out gaming mouse before. However, a report on social media has left us all scratching our heads after a user complained that their Gigabyte M6880X wired gaming mouse caught fire as they slept, and nearly burned down the house. If the facts behind this story are true, then it would certainly be a shocker. This particular Gigabyte device isn't the best gaming mouse out there, but that doesn't really matter in this instance. It would (or rather, should) be extremely unusual for any mouse to catch fire, especially given the limited electrical current that they typically draw and the fact that this isn't a wireless mouse, meaning there's no battery either.

If I had to pick the five greatest and most PC influential games, at least during that transformative decade between 1990 and the end of 2000, then I think Fallout would make the list, probably Civilization, and maybe Doom. There are a lot of contenders for the fourth spot. Command and Conquer comes to mind. So do Half-Life, Counter-Strike, The Sims, and StarCraft. But the ultimate crown goes to Deus Ex. Visionary, original, and the perfect intermediary between player and developer, they should give out Deus Ex to everyone who owns a PC. It's required reading. We're not quite there yet - but if you're signed up to Prime Gaming, or want to give it a try, Deus Ex is free to keep. Read the rest of the story...

Cyberpunk 2077 is already one of the best-looking games available, despite its advancing age, but the neon-lit game's latest update makes it look even better, thanks to its new support for DLSS 4. The new Cyberpunk 2.21 patch is being rolled out right now, ready for the new RTX 5000 launch, but you can actually enable the new upscaling tech on any Nvidia GeForce RTX GPU, including the 2000 series. I had the chance to test a pre-build of Cyberpunk 2077 with DLSS 4 support before the launch, ready for my Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 review, and I was really impressed with the results. You will need an RTX 5000 graphics card to run Multi Frame Gen, which provides a massive boost to frame rates, but the new DLSS Super Resolution tech will work on any Nvidia RTX card, and it makes a big difference to image quality compared to previous versions of DLSS.

How do you use the Monster Hunter Wilds Light Bowgun? The Light Bowgun is one of the best beginner friendly weapons in the game, and though it comes with a few tweaks and changes from previous iterations of the weapon, it largely plays the same. The Monster Hunter Wilds Light Bowgun is, as you guessed it, a lighter version of the Heavy Bowgun, and unlike the normal MHW Bow, you'll need to craft elemental ammo to use it, though normal, piercing, and spread ammo are unlimited. It's a much nimbler alternative to the Heavy Bowgun and has a few moves that allow you to move around while shooting and quickly dodge out of the way, but keep the pressure on enemies. Here's why it's one of the best Monster Hunter Wilds weapons. Read the rest of the story...

Assassin's Creed Shadows has a long legacy to live up to, both in terms of matching past heights and avoiding past pitfalls, but one area that should be set for success is the art direction. With a consistent breadth of historical detail on display, even the weakest games in the series are full of eye candy. Of course, every setting brings some new challenges, and Assassin's Creed Shadows is complicating affairs by trying out some major new tech on top of everything else. View the full article
Assassin's Creed has always been defined by its thorough recreations of historical settings, and Assassin's Creed Shadows is setting a new standard among the largest games in the series. While the most recent entry, Mirage, went back to a focus on one city, Shadows follows in the tradition of the open-world maps of Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla. The landmarks in these games attempt to stay close to their actual size, but the overall lay of the land tends to be more compressed to make the scale manageable. View the full article

There’s a level of uncertainty surrounding 100 Thieves’ League of Legends program. Rumors of the organization leaving League were only amplified by the announcement that Riot Games had bought back its permanent partnership with the formerly-named LCS and 100T was made a provisional guest.
