Nvidia's GeForce GTX 1660 Super is in a bit of an odd place right now. It's a teensy bit faster than its non-Super sibling, the regular old GTX 1660, but not quite fast enough to really a proper impact on your minute-to-minute gaming performance. But given the GTX 1660 was already pretty close in speed to its more expensive cousin, the GTX 1660 Ti, is…

It's been a rocky 24 hours for Red Dead Redemption 2 on PC. From in-game crashes to Rockstar's own launcher "unexpectedly" upping sticks and riding the hell away before anyone can even get a whiff of a menu screen, it's clear Rockstar still have a heck of a lot of work to do before we can truly enjoy everything their long-awaited cowboy epic has to…

It's only been eight months since Nvidia's GeForce GTX 1660 graphics card first came out, but already it's got a Super-fied successor in the form of the GTX 1660 Super. I've already gone into a pretty detailed breakdown of how both cards compare in my Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Super review, but sometimes it's just easier to see things laid out in some nice bar…

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I do not understand why the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Super needs to exist. Yes, it's a mildly more powerful version of the original GTX 1660, now boasting 6GB of GDDR6 memory clocked at a nippy 14 Gbps instead of 6GB of the slower GDDR5 type that ran at just 8 Gbps, and yes, Nvidia's decision…

I'm just going to come out and say it. The Ducky One 2 is probably one of the best gaming keyboards I've ever used. It's available in a range of sizes and numerous different key cap colours, including a tenkeyless version, a 65% model and the even dinkier Ducky One 2 Mini, but it's the full-sized RGB model I've had on my desk for the…

All Hallows Eve may have slid back into the calendar coffin for another year, but All Hallows DEALS Eve is still going strong, with plenty of spooky games discounts still trick or treating (mostly treating) as hard as they possibly can. There are loads of great savings to be found in this week's best PC gaming deals round-up, so why not grab your candy bag…

There are two types of ray tracing game that have emerged over 2019. On the one hand you've got your big, bombastic feast-for-the-eyes type games like Minecraft RTX, Control and Metro Exodus, and on the other you've got your subtle, squint-and-you-miss-it jobs like Battlefield V and Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and its ray traced shadows fall squarely into the…

Gaming headsets are all well and good for barking at your mates when you're playing games online, but I'm willing to bet a fair few of you have a separate favourite pair of headphones for listening to music with as well. After all, even the [block id="604477" title="Best gaming headset"]s aren't often fit to be seen in public, nor are they necessarily compatible with any…

In terms of pure visual spectacle, Minecraft RTX is hands down the most impressive ray tracing game I've seen to date. Unlike other RTX-enabled games where you need big green boxes or a magnifying glass to see the fancy lighting effects, Minecraft RTX puts them right in your face. It's like having a Creeper explode point blank in your retina every time you toggle it…

HDR on PC hasn't improved much in 2019. Despite there being more HDR gaming monitors than ever before, the very [block id="604469" title="Best gaming monitor"]s for HDR continue to be quite expensive compared to non-HDR monitors, and the situation around Windows 10 support for it is still a bit of a mess. However, provided you're willing to fight through all that, then the next step on your…
