My personal pick would be the Ryzen 5 3600x for the performance and cost. It still outperforms the Ryzen 7 2700X (which is what I have), and compared to the Ryzen 7 3700x, you're only getting a modest performance boost for $100 more. The Ryzen 5 3600x is the best value for cost/performance. And...

The Sims 3 definitely has its pros and cons over the Sims 4, but the moods in 4 are far more complex and make for some funny actions too. (If your Sims is angry and they need to go to the bathroom, they can 'take an angry poop,' for instance.) It did take me a while to get used to the UI in the...

I am a die hard TNG fan as well! I've been loving Picard so far, too.

That same part scared me so bad, too! I slowly managed to carry on from there, but it took me a while to finish the game—and I love horror games. The part in Layers of Fear (when it first released, as this scene plays out differently now) where you're forced to walk down a dimly lit hallway...

TNG is my favorite ST series, so to see so many characters come back for a new series is exciting to me. So, anyone planning on watching the premier of Star Trek Picard tomorrow? Are you excited? Apprehensive? Which ST series do you like the best?

Currently a part of a bi-weekly Call of Cthulhu campaign and loving every second of it. Also helping a writer friend beta test a table top RPG of his. He recently released one as well, which I'm currently learning. (It's called The Great American Novel, if you're interested.) I also love table...

The Lion King This survival game takes place after Scar has taken control of Pride Rock. The land has already started to decay. Watering holes have turned to dust bowls, grass fields to dried husks. Springbok and other carnivore food sources are now endangered. Everything is dead or dying. You...

RAM is definitely an easy one, although some manufactures like to solder the RAM to the motherboard, so upgrading to a larger SSD is a better option. You can do either M.2 NVMe or SATA, depending on your budget and what can fit into your laptop's configuration. If you're looking for the best...

I've always liked giving/receiving peripherals because you can usually find a good one that's not too expensive, the SteelSeries Arctis 3 being one of those quality ones under $100 if you don't get it with Bluetooth. But I totally hear what you are saying about making sure the gift matches the...

Hello all! I'm Joanna Nelius. Other than writing a bunch of stuff about PC hardware and cloud gaming, I play a lot of The Sims 4, Overwatch, and any horror game I can get my hands on. (Who else is excited for The Outlast Trials?!) As of late I've been slowly working my way through The Outer...
