										<content:encoded><![CDATA[F-Stop, the Portal prequel Valve canceled in 2007, is now playable after the community stitched it together from several leaks. Most of its assets were already sitting in the gigantic 12 TB Steam2 archive that leaked in August, but that dump didn&#8217;t include the game&#8217;s source code or its mapsrc data, Valve&#8217;s folder for map source files. Those two missing pieces showed up on the Valve Cut Content project&#8217;s Discord server over the past few days, where the team verified the map files before everything was merged into one build. It isn&#8217;t fully complete, as some textures and dialogue are still missing, but YouTube playthroughs suggest it&#8217;s largely stable, and the campaign wraps up in under an hour. Getting a copy yourself is another matter, since the Discord server apparently went invite-only after all the attention. Read&nbsp;More]]></content:encoded>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[PC Games Hardware has put a modded GeForce RTX 2080 Ti 22 GB through their test gauntlet, and the extra memory seemingly pays off once games run out of headroom. At 4K with DLSS Performance and FSR 3.1 Frame Generation, the card averaged 52.5 FPS in Flight Simulator 2024 against 30.2 FPS on a regular 11 GB model, roughly 74% faster. Spider-Man 2 jumped from 39.4 to 64.0 FPS, and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle crashed to the desktop on the 11 GB card. At 1440p with DLSS Quality, the gap was smaller, though those first two games still ran about 20% slower on 11 GB. Of course, PCGH chose nine memory-hungry games on purpose, and most titles run fine on 11 GB. Keep in mind that these are just one outlet&#8217;s numbers, and other results may vary.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Microsoft has introduced Cloud Rebuild, a recovery option that can wipe and reinstall Windows 11 by pulling a fresh image and the PC&#8217;s drivers from Windows Update, even when the system refuses to boot. It ships with KB5127936, the optional preview update released on October 28 for Windows 11 25H2 and 26H2, and it&#8217;s rolling out gradually. If Windows still loads, the option sits under Settings &gt; System &gt; Recovery as &#8220;Rebuild PC.&#8221; If it doesn&#8217;t, the PC falls back to the Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) after a few failed boots, where Cloud rebuild shows up under the Troubleshoot menu.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Two days after arguing that the DRAM in home PCs would be put to better use in data centers, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman sat down with around 50 Samsung presidents on Saturday, October 31. The group went well past the chip business, with leaders from Samsung&#8217;s finance and biotech arms joining the electronics side at the company&#8217;s training center in Yongin. Samsung presented it as part of a leadership seminar series for its company-wide AI push, and the talks apparently covered where AI is headed, the markets it could open up, and how it changes the way large companies make decisions. According to Samsung, Altman told the room that adopting AI alone doesn&#8217;t give anyone an edge, and that the payoff comes from using it to move faster and build better products.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Haswell owners finally have a way to get Resizable BAR running on Intel 8-series motherboards. As spotted by Haze on X, a developer going by roschank has released reBART, an open-source UEFI driver for Z87, H87, Q87, B85, Q85, and H81 boards. Back in 2020, it was reported that Intel CPUs since Haswell support Resizable BAR, pending firmware updates from motherboard makers that never came for 8-series.
