Two monitors. One brand. And a whole world of difference. Hopes were high for the new 32-inch Thermaltake TGM-V32CQ, after all, its smaller 27-inch sibling, the TGM-I27FQ, wowed us late last year. It doesn't break any records, but it does deliver a great all-round 1440p gaming experience at a very reasonable price.
The Razer Blade 14 (2024) is a highly desirable gaming laptop. It's the sort-of laptop that feels almost like bragging to use openly in a public space. It's practically a status symbol. The competition hasn't been able to emit that same star quality.

However, one tipster claims that the core configuration will remain unchanged compared to Apple’s previous A-series chipsets, potentially meaning that we may not witness a noteworthy difference between the two silicon generations.
Qualcomm has shared even more performance numbers of its upcoming Snapdragon X Elite PC CPUs, now showcased to be over 50% faster than Intel's fastest Core Ultra chips in Geekbench 6 benchmark tests.
AMD's next-gen Ryzen "Zen 5" CPUs codenamed Granite Ridge have received the first support on ASUS's AM5 motherboards with the AGESA 1.1.7.0 BIOS.
