Whether you’re using the old-school Nvidia Control Panel or Team Green’s more recent app, it’s easy to make settings mistakes, even on a high-end graphics card like the RTX 5070. In an age where games will destroy your 8GB GPU, it’s important to know the correct settings for your level of hardware. With that said, even if you own a decent Team Green GPU, there are always graphical presets you can cut back on without feeling any significant visual downgrades for potentially big performance benefits. As someone who has been gaming on Nvidia GPUs for over 15 years, here are…

It started with Game of Thrones, as many things do. HBO’s epic fantasy show was the most popular TV series of the 2010s, in part because it was created on a scale that few people had seen before. The biggest episodes of Game of Thrones rivaled the biggest Hollywood movies for shock and awe, and that required a record-breaking budget. Or at least it was record-breaking at the time.

An accusation made about the British is that they never shut up about the weather. And people from elsewhere find that odd, because British weather is mostly very dull – in every sense. Lots of grey skies. A general lack of terrifying tornadoes or the kind of heat that singes your eyebrows. All true. But we do have seasons that splutter into existence, with temperatures and conditions bouncing around before they settle. Which, I’ve discovered, is a problem for smart heating systems – or at least the one I have, which doesn’t offer quite enough control. Most of the UK…

Google TV is one of the best smart TV platforms around, but the thing is, most people never go beyond the usual streaming options. And that’s a shame because Google TV includes some really clever features that can change the way you use your TV. These let you do everything from declutter the home screen and mirror your phone’s screen to even speed up your Google TV. Some of these are buried deep inside the settings menu, while others are available right in front of you but are easy to overlook. Related I Finally Found the Solution to My Android…

If you spend your day hopping between video calls and deep-work playlists, you’ve likely realized that Bluetooth devices are riddled with compromises — especially on a platform like Windows. I reached a breaking point after realizing that my Bluetooth earphones would always sound mediocre during calls.
