The most ridiculous gaming monitor ever sold is now on sale.
A wickedly curved 57 inches of quantum-dot-enhanced mini-LED pixels. Two 4K 240Hz screens side by side, stretching across your entire field of view. On sale today for $2,500 at Samsung, with Best Buy and Newegg coming soon.
I’d warn you away from Samsung’s monitor lottery after reviewing two previous-gen models myself, but maybe they got it right this time?

The sneaker PC is real — just $3,500.
It began as a case mod in 2020, then Cooler Master said it’d sell the thing. Now, you can get a badass robot kick that runs Windows on an RTX 4070 for $3,500 at Amazon. “Place your order and we’ll email you when we have an estimated delivery date,” sez the retailer. There’s a 4070 Ti model too.

TIL someone got the amazing analog Space Command remote to control Alexa.
No batteries, no infrared — just the original “clicker” TV remote’s ultrasonic pings translated into digital commands by an Arduino computer, which then speaks in a robotic voice to get Alexa to do your bidding.
Here’s our Button of the Month about the 1956 gadget — and its service manual.

AMD FSR3 arrives tomorrow in its first two games.
AMD chief gaming architect Frank Azor confirms to me that Forspoken and Immortals of Aveum will be the first, with 12 other games announced and 16 studios committed to the tech.
FSR3’s big new feature is like Nvidia’s DLSS 3 frame generation, but not proprietary — it can imagine new frames between existing ones, boosting your framerate, with rival GPUs too. Wonder how my 3060 Ti will do.

I like the look of these mini vertical Maingear gaming PCs.
The Revolt has a integrated handle that folds flush into the case, a pop-out headphone holder, toolless side panels, and separate cooling zones for the CPU and GPU — and the $2,099 Platinum configuration seems a solid price for a prebuilt RTX 4070 machine with i5-13600K, 32GB of DDR5 and RGB.
The highest-end configs seem overpriced, though, and what’s with the low storage capacities? BYOSSD. Hyte also sells the case by itself for $130.
