Corsair Xeneon Edge review | PC Gamer

Corsair is not necessarily known for its monitors. Its big thing has always been the memory market, but the company has also successfully broadened its horizons into PSUs, peripherals, cooling, and almost everything that goes into building a gaming PC. But it was also one of the first to hit us with a bendable OLED … Read more

After running an OLED monitor for 533 days, seven hours, and 22 minutes straight, MSI claims the effects of burn-in on its displays are ‘basically none’

OLED burn-in is one of the biggest anxieties around OLED monitors, behind, well, the price. We’ve seen people run their screen for a year, then 15 months to see if it would cause problems, but until now, we have not seen someone do it for longer. Well, MSI has recently run a monitor for three … Read more

Gears of War: Reloaded PC performance: The updated graphics are easy work for any desktop GPU from the past six years but they’re still enough to give handhelds grief

If you were hoping that Gears of War: Reloaded was going to be like The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered, then I have a bit of bad news for you. It’s essentially 2016’s Ultimate Edition of Gears of War, but with better lighting and textures—everything else, including meshes, animations, and the overall gameplay, is exactly … Read more

I got my hands on Nvidia GeForce Now’s new RTX 5080 upgrade and I couldn’t tell the games weren’t running locally, but 4K with frame gen was a little laggy

Nvidia recently announced its “biggest launch in GeForce Now RTX” history which includes an upgrade to RTX 5080 performance, and last week I got some hands-on time with the new and improved game streaming service. As a big proponent of local, discrete, good ol’ fashioned hardware, I wasn’t quite expecting how good it feels to … Read more

Crusader Kings 3’s new DLC has a release date and even more opportunities to be murdered spectacularly by your vassals

The thing about monarchs is they are, on the whole, very keen for you to know they’re monarchs. Thus the crown, the ermine, the jewellery, the palaces and, most of all, the coronations. Whether it’s the Pope dumping a crown on Charlemagne’s head in 800 CE, Napoleon getting ideas above his station in 1804, or … Read more

Borderlands 3 ‘sometimes felt like parody’ of itself, say writers, but 4 aims to fix that: ‘If I tried to put a meme in the game, he would come to my house with a baseball bat’

Borderlands 3’s story is… interesting. As someone who has played most of Gearbox’s loot’em shoot’ems, I agree with the general consensus that 3’s story is kinda the worst. Mind, I’ve never hopped into Pandora’s (or its associated moons’) deep narrative—but after hours of outdated memes, when a certain character sacrificed themselves to Beyonce’s “This Girl … Read more

KTC H27T22C-3 gaming monitor review

You know those random-branded monitors you see on Newegg or Amazon? The ones that look like stellar value on paper? Are any of them actually any good? Or are they somehow fundamentally flawed and therefore ultimately a waste of money? In the case of the KTC H27T22C-3, at least, I can answer that question. At … Read more

All MMO quest journals are a massive waste of potential, except for FF14’s, which was good for exactly one storyline

Terminally Online This is Terminally Online: PC Gamer’s very own MMORPG column. Every other week, I’ll be sharing my thoughts on the genre, interviewing fellow MMO-heads like me, taking a deep-dive into mechanics we’ve all taken for granted, and, occasionally, bringing in guest writers to talk about their MMO of choice. My credentials? Well, I’ve … Read more

Speculatively plotting GTA 6’s map is a painstaking, exhausting, and heroic effort: ‘We had 10 people search every street in StreetView, this took weeks—and failed’

If you’re a Grand Theft Auto-enjoyed, the painstaking wait for GTA 6 likely seems like a lifetime. Sitting on our hands, watching the clock, marking huge Xs on the calendar day-by-day—May 26, 2026 cannot come quick enough. For one GTA community, though, this is the busiest they’ve ever been. Founded in the run-up to GTA … Read more
