After shrinking an RTX 4080, Redditor and DIY hardware enthusiast TechTaxi got his hands on an RTX 4070 Ti and hacked it into a dual-slot graphics card that can fit into a four-liter small form factor case.The modder posted a picturein the r/SFF community to see if users would like to see a modded and functional graphics card with a single cooling fan using an SFF case like aVelkase Velka 3and theCaselabs K39....
YouTube makers atNerdforgehave crafted a fully functional PC that houses a coffee grinder and roaster inside its chassis. For the discerning power user who needs freshly ground brew right at their desk, this hugely custom job enters to help the caffeination battle.

With its distinctive combination of leather, glass, and steel, along with a robust leather carrying strap up top, Montech’s Heritage was one of the more memorable cases to break cover last summer atComputex 2024. Here in early 2025, the case has finally arrived on our test bench, in both its black and white variations. And after spending time building a system in the Micro ATX / Mini-ITX chassis, we can confirm it’s one of the most unique compact cases on the market, although its internal design reminds me of Asus’ more understated and affordableAP201....
MSI debuted three new Project Zero motherboards for Core Ultra 200 Arrow Lake CPUs atCES2025, beefing up the company’s midrange options for its hidden-cable product series. Of particular note are the two LGA 1851 boards that fall under MSI’s Tomahawk brand, which are well known for offering good value for money. The MAG Z890 Tomahawk WiFi PZ and Tomahawk WiFi PZ White are more or less identical to their non-PZ counterparts, but as the PZ stands for Project Zero, these two boards have all of their onboard plugs on the back side rather than the front....
On April 4,Microsoft releasedits landmark 1986 MS-DOS 4 operating system’s source code on GitHub, listed alongside its other DOS source code releases — however, posting MS-DOS 4 on GitHub in its current altered form seems to have broken some critical files entirely.As called out by noted developer and operator of blog OS/2 Museum Michal Necasek inHow Not To Release Historic Source Code, git failing to preserve timestamps and converting files to UTF-8 pretty much breaks everything....
A fundamental limitation of modern artificial intelligence and neural networks is that they aren’t good at spatial mapping or navigation without an existing map. However,TechXplorereports that a combination of a predictive coding algorithm andMinecraftgameplay successfully “taught” a neural network how to create spatial maps and subsequently use those spatial maps to predict the following frames of video, yielding a mean-squared error of 0.094% between the predicted image and the final image....
After its Corporate Management Policy Briefing, Nintendo confirmed on Twitter that Nintendo Switch games would remain playable on “the successor to Nintendo Switch,” which most are currently calling Switch 2.

Several legitimate-looking leaks of the Nintendo Switch 2’s final design have surfaced this past week. Still, these culminated yesterday with Dbrand’s unexpected release of a full 3D render of a Nintendo Switch 2, albeit with a version of theDbrand Killswitch carrying casefor handheld PCs redesigned for Switch 2. Speaking toThe Vergeon the topic, Dbrand CEO Adam Ijaz claimed the company used its access to the actual dimensions of Switch 2 based on a 3D scan of actual hardware, which measures roughly 270mm wide with Joy-Cons attached (200mm without), 116mm tall, and 14mm thick....
Thepreliminary specificationsof Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 4070 Super, poised to be among thebest graphics cards, claim that the GPU could have 48MB of L2 cache. To our great surprise, thelaunch materialsthat Nvidia supplied us mentioned that the GeForce RTX 4070 Super was equipped with a GPU with 36MB of L2. This was a typo later corrected by Nvidia, reportsWccftech.

A robotics and machine learning engineer has developed a command-line interface tool that monitors power use from a smart plug and then tunes system performance based on electricity pricing. The simple program, calledWattWise, came about when Naveen built a dual-socket EPYC workstation with plans to add four GPUs. It’s a power-intensive setup, so he wanted a way to monitor its power consumption using a Kasa smart plug. The enthusiast has released the monitoring portion of the project to the public now, but the portion that manages clocks and power will be released later....
