On paper, a 12-core CPU sounds like it should be comfortably competitive in 2026-era workloads, especially if you're lining it up against mainstream desktop parts. But real performance is a mix of architecture, clocks, platform maturity, and software optimisation, not just core count. That's why the latest Linux benchmark results for Loongson's 12-core 3B6000 are getting attention.

Let's address the headline first: an RTX Pro 6000 priced around MYR 40,000 is not a "gaming GPU with a ridiculous price tag." It's a workstation-class accelerator built for people who make money when projects render faster, simulations converge sooner, AI models fine-tune locally, or huge scenes stop crashing halfway through a deadline week. In other words, it's less "frame per second" and more "hours saved, jobs delivered, clients happy."

Every now and then, PC hardware throws you a problem that feels less like "tech troubleshooting" and more like "how did this even leave the factory?". A PC gamer recently highlighted a pretty painful quality-control slip involving a PNY NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti. After installing the card, their system started freezing and crashing. They also noticed PCIe-related errors showing up in HWInfo, which is usually a big hint that something isn't happy in the connection between the GPU and the motherboard.

NVIDIA has quietly dropped a meaningful upgrade for PC gamers and creators alike. With the latest update to the NVIDIA App, DLSS 4.5 Super Resolution is now available to all users, bringing smarter upscaling, cleaner visuals, and smoother motion across hundreds of supported titles and applications.

Kioxia has officially unveiled the BG7 series, its latest lineup of low-cost M.2 NVMe SSDs aimed squarely at mainstream and value-focused PCs. Arriving roughly two and a half years after the BG6 generation, the BG7 continues Kioxia's strategy of supplying affordable solid-state storage primarily for OEM systems rather than retail consumers.
