According to the analytics firm, Forza Horizon 6 has handily taken the top spot as the most successful first-party game launch from Xbox and Sony for 2026 so far—and with quite a margin, to boot.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[TCL&#8217;s panel arm, TCL CSOT (China Star), is planning OLED monitor panels with refresh rates of up to 700 Hz, according to a new Omdia report on OLED monitor shipments. The panels will apparently come from TCL&#8217;s Gen 8.6 inkjet-printed (IJP) OLED line in Guangzhou, which is expected to begin production in 2028, and will include larger sizes such as 32-inch and 34-inch. No resolutions were given, and it&#8217;s not clear whether 700 Hz will be a native refresh rate or a dual-mode setting at a lower resolution. TCL is starting smaller, with its Gen 5.5 line set to ship 27-inch UHD 120 Hz IJP OLED panels in Q3 2026 for an MSI content-creation monitor. If the 2028 timeline pans out, TCL could be the first to mass-produce IJP OLED monitor panels at Gen 8.6. Read&nbsp;More]]></content:encoded>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Valve&#8217;s Steam store listing for the Valve Index now states that the headset is no longer being produced, with remaining headsets, controllers, and accessories up for sale while supplies last. On the US store, the Index headset is down 20% to $399.20 from its usual $499, and the Replacement Left Controller and Replacement Tether are 20% off as well. Valve says nothing changes for existing owners, and the Index will continue to be supported through Steam and SteamVR. The headset launched back in June 2019, when the full kit went for $999 on preorder. Its successor, the Steam Frame, opened for preorders on September 14 at $1,059 for the 256 GB model and $1,299 for the 1 TB version. Read&nbsp;More]]></content:encoded>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[On two separate occasions, in August and again in September, it was predicted that entry-level GPUs would see significant price increases in the second half of 2026, and it seems as though that prediction has come true, as showed in a recent Reddit post sharing updated retailer listing prices for NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50-series GPUs from Japan—one of the countries where PC hardware prices are often felt sooner than in international markets. According to the price list, the cheapest available RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB was ¥118,800 (~$750 converted), while RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB prices start at ¥139,800 (~$882 converted).

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[A hacker claiming responsibility for the breach of Denmark&#8217;s Central Register of Persons (CPR) says it was protected by &#8220;123456,&#8221; a password that has topped most-common-password lists for years. Speaking to Danish newspaper Politiken, the person said at least three accounts at Pays ApS, a two-employee IT company in Odense with authorized access to the register, used that exact password, and one of them was an administrator account. Danish authorities confirmed the breach on October 5, saying the names, addresses, and CPR numbers of around 8.8 million people were exposed, including deceased people and those who have moved abroad. Pays managing director Sophie Laursen confirmed on October 9 that the company&#8217;s access had been abused, and its website has since gone offline. Read&nbsp;More]]></content:encoded>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Since Asha Sharma took over as Xbox CEO earlier in 2026, she has been gunning hard to grow the Xbox audience, and part of that strategy has been a return to Xbox-exclusive games, although it was assumed that these Xbox exclusive games would be relatively limited, but it seems as though that may not be the case, according to a new report by Windows Central. Per the report, a new Xbox Research user survey asked gamers how their gaming habits would change if it was announced that all future games from Xbox-owned studios, excluding Call of Duty, suddenly became console-exclusive to Xbox.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[GlobalFoundries announced that it has been selected to provide the technology and to operate two planned semiconductor fabs at its Malta, New York, site. This is not a direct investment from GF but rather came as a new U.S.-Japan initiative involving up to $21 billion in funding. The first 300 mm fab will be funded with an initial investment of around $10 billion. GF expects to break ground later this year, with production planned to begin in 2029. In a second phase, another fab is planned with another $10 billion investment at a later date. When fully operational, each fab will produce around 900,000 wafers annually. GF expects to reach baseline capacity around 2031-2032 for the first fab, and projects 2033 for the second one. The expansion comes as the company seeks new opportunities in advanced packaging and semiconductor manufacturing. In April, AMD announced plans to work with GF on co-packaged optics (CPO) for its next-generation Instinct MI500 AI accelerators, scheduled for 2027. The company is also preparing to bring its 7 nm-class FDX Fusion technology into mass production at its Dresden, Germany, facility in 2028. Read&nbsp;More]]></content:encoded>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Valve appears to be working on an OLED version of its Steam Frame VR headset, according to evidence that comes from Valve&#8217;s own code. Steam Frame Hub dug through the headset&#8217;s Linux kernel source, which Valve made public and evlaV mirrored on GitHub, and found a branch called &#8220;deckard-plano.&#8221; Plano seems to be the codename for a mid-generation refresh, building on an earlier &#8220;deckard-oled&#8221; branch, with work on it running from March until early October 2026. The driver code points to panels with a native resolution of 3552&#215;3840 per eye, nearly three times the pixel count of the current Steam Frame&#8217;s 2160&#215;2160 LCDs. However, running at that resolution is another story. Read&nbsp;More]]></content:encoded>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Tuxedo Computers, the German Linux hardware maker, has launched the Stellaris 16 Gen 8, a 16-inch desktop replacement laptop with optional liquid cooling. Stellaris 16 is powered by Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus processors and NVIDIA GeForce RTX GPUs from 5070 up to 5090. The laptop uses an all-aluminium chassis, measures 357 x 260 x 28 mm and weighs up to 2.8 kg, depending on configuration. The internal cooling system uses three fans, two on each side and one in the middle for up to 240 W of combined CPU and GPU power. For additional cooling, users can buy the optional Tuxedo Aquaris external docking station. This circulates distilled water through a dedicated cooling pipe inside the notebook, improving overall cooling performance. However, that will pretty much limit the laptop&#8217;s mobility. Tuxedo also offers its own Control Center software that provides control over CPU power limits and fan speeds. Read&nbsp;More]]></content:encoded>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Apple has officially announced HomeView, its long-rumored smart home hub, priced at $299 in the US. It comes in two versions, a tabletop model and a wall-mounted one, both built around a 7-inch Liquid Retina display with True Tone that ranges from 500 nits down to just 0.3 nits. The tabletop model sits on a domed speaker base with a down-firing woofer, attached through a tilting stainless steel hinge. Inside, there&#8217;s an A18 chip with Secure Exclaves, which Apple says keeps camera and microphone data separate from the rest of the system. Read&nbsp;More]]></content:encoded>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Epic Games announced today that its biggest game, Fortnite, is officially coming to Linux, bringing joy to millions of Linux gamers who will no longer have to deal with translation layers and compatibility issues on their own. While the game is not available yet, the company is currently rebuilding Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) and plans to distribute Fortnite through its new Epic Games Launcher once the security work is complete. Historically, anti-cheat compatibility has been a barrier, as EAC has supported Linux for years, but developers needed to enable that support. Epic states that its existing implementation cannot offer protection comparable to Windows, and Fortnite players have been in the dark, replying on limited success with Proton translation layer.
