										<content:encoded><![CDATA[It seems as though video game industry layoffs are almost inevitable these days, for studios both large and small, and this is something that KO_OP, the small indie studio behind 3D puzzle game, GNOG, and the co-op space-faring cozy game, Young Suns, has had to face recently. The studio recently announced that it would be laying off 13 staff members, but instead of the sudden, sweeping layoffs that decimate studios and livelihoods alike, KO_OP says that it has conducted its layoffs &#8220;democratically.&#8221; The layoffs will take place over the course of &#8220;the next few months.&#8221; Read&nbsp;More]]></content:encoded>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Modders at the Brazilian YouTube channel TecLab have an RTX 5090 running on three standard 8-pin PCIe connectors instead of the 16-pin design that keeps melting on high-end NVIDIA cards. The team stripped a Galax GeForce RTX 5090D HOF OC LAB XOC down to the bare PCB, removed both native 16-pin inputs, and soldered three 8-pin connectors straight to the power regulators. Sense pins were rewired so the card would still request full power, with liquid cooling keeping temperatures in check. Read&nbsp;More]]></content:encoded>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Wallhack has been teasing its M-001 wireless gaming mouse for some time, but it hasn&#8217;t revealed much of what to expect from the new peripheral when it launches. However, Wallhack has now officially announced the M-001&#8217;s release date and pricing, and provided a full spec sheet for the new mouse. The official launch date is slated for September 21, and one of the most notable facts that was previously unknown is that the mouse will have a magnesium shell. Despite the cast metal shell, M-001 will still weigh in at a relatively lightweight 53 g. Read&nbsp;More]]></content:encoded>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[By this point, there are plenty of split ergonomic mechanical keyboards that one can conceivably build or buy without breaking the bank, but many of those come with compromises when it comes to materials, challenging build processes, configuration software, or just being a little fiddly, in general. The Pando, a recently released open-source keyboard design by Julian Yap, aims to solve many of these problems by offering USB-C connectivity with ESD protection, an integrated MCU—as opposed to something like an RP2040—hot-swap switches, open-source firmware and layout configuration, and a no-nonsense design built around MX switches and standard keycaps. The Pando can be built as a DIY project from the GitHub repo, like its predecessor, the Pando58, but the maker of the keyboard also offers pre-soldered barebones kits—no switches or keycaps—for $109 on Etsy, with an upgraded multi-jet fusion-printed case with a stainless steel bottom plate coming in at $179.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[JAPANNEXT, the Japanese manufacturer known for some unique monitor designs with distinctive form factors, has now listed the JN-MD-IPS7443. This is a compact 7.8-inch IPS portable display with a vertical 400 x 1280 resolution in a 5:16 aspect ratio, all packed in 211 x 74 x 15 mm. The unusual form factor is aimed at chat apps, status displays, and similar narrow vertical content. The panel has a refresh rate of 60 Hz, with 550 cd/m² brightness, a 900:1 contrast ratio and a glossy surface. There is no support for adaptive sync, HDR, or flicker-free, also, the panel is not touch-sensitive. The small display comes with a dedicated stand to change from vertical to horizontal mode when needed, though Windows 11 is required for orientation switching while macOS is not supported.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[An unofficial, native Android port of Grand Theft Auto 5 is reportedly in development, though it looks like only a small portion of phones will actually be able to run it at launch. The project comes from M0jso of Paralympics Productions, the same developer behind the unofficial GTA 5 port for the original Nintendo Switch that we recently covered. Unlike solutions that run the Windows version through compatibility layers like Winlator, this port is being built to run GTA 5 natively on Arm. It reportedly uses the same base as the Switch port, which itself was built on GTA 5 Legacy 1.0.2699 and the leaked 2023 source code. Read&nbsp;More]]></content:encoded>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Shortly after modders enabled DLSS 5 on previous NVIDIA generations, the focus has shifted to Frame Generation. A modder has reportedly gotten NVIDIA&#8217;s own DLSS Frame Generation running on a GeForce RTX 20-series GPU, something the company has never officially supported. The mod was tested on an RTX 2060 Max-Q in The Witcher 3&#8217;s next-gen update using DirectX 12, where the in-game Frame Generation toggle could be switched on, and the improved framerate was observed. NVIDIA officially only supports DLSS Multi Frame Generation (MFG) on RTX 50-series GPUs, with simple Frame Generation limited to RTX 40-series and above.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Today, AMD quietly launched new CPUs for both the AM4 and AM5 platforms in a surprising twist. Starting with the Ryzen 5 7500, it joins the Ryzen 7000 lineup as a slightly different take on the Ryzen 5 7500F. Meanwhile, the Ryzen 5 5500F introduces another Zen 3 chip to the increasingly hard-to-retire Ryzen 5000 family. Focusing on the newer platform, the Ryzen 5 7500 is a 6-core, 12-thread &#8220;Zen 4&#8221; processor running at 3.7 GHz by default and reaching up to 5.0 GHz under boost. Its 65 W TDP and 38 MB of combined cache, split between 6 MB of L2 and 32 MB of L3, remain unchanged from the 7500F. The key distinction is the integrated GPU; AMD has equipped the chip with a small RDNA 2 graphics unit containing two Compute Units clocked at up to 2.2 GHz.
