The Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 introduced both a new form factor and a PCIe 1x connection which has seen use with M.2 expansions for storage and Tensorflow Processing Units. Wiretrustee has taken the initiative and created a NAS carrier board that provides space for up to four SATA drives. Wiretrustee's SATA Board for Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 measure just 4 inches square (100 x 100mm), and on the top of the board we see four SATA power and data interfaces angled so that the drives are vertical. These four drives are linked to a Marvell 88SE9215 SATA-to-PCIe interface. At this time, Wiretrustee have tested the SATA ports, and in a Reddit post they have discussed their progress including SATA drive speeds, which are nothing to write home about but it is still early days. "We've tested it with the Raspberry PI OS and it has a write speed of ~220MB/s on each of the SATA ports (not simultaneously of course)". On first glance, we instantly noticed that there was no space on the board for the Compute Module 4. Rather than create a board with a larger footprint, they have cleverly located the CM4 on the underside of the board. The board has connectors for 12V power input and a 12V 4 pin fan connector, useful to keep the CM4 and drives cool if used in an enclosure. An LED control board, broken off from the mainboard, shows drive activity and provides useful power and reset buttons. Looking around the board we can see a Gigabit Ethernet port, two USB 2.0 ports, a single HDMI 2.0 port and USB-C power for the CM4. A microSD can be used as a boot device, but you can also use a CM4 with onboard flash storage as a boot device. It is still early days for this project, and it is still under heavy development with a testing schedule currently underway. There is no word on price or release date, but Wiretrustee intend to offer the board via Crowd Supply.

The last year has seen the security landscape evolve dramatically. The rise in cyberattacks linked to remote working has prompted a realization for many businesses that it’s time to re-evaluate their cybersecurity strategies. While most understand that trust should never be relegated to the back burner, many are still looking at it through an outdated lens that stands in the way of delivering the level of security that organizations need in order to properly protect themselves and their employees in the new hybrid office. Securing remote work isn’t just a technology issue. In our current digital era, security is built on layers of trust that underpin the way people engage with technology. To get things right in our new operating environment, companies need an approach that elevates trust throughout the entire ecosystem and makes security part of every job description. In my work as a Global Chief Security Officer, I have identified five steps that business and technology leaders can leverage to enhance trust among the people, processes, and platforms that contribute to secure remote work. Building trust through empathy Perfect security is a myth. The most effective way to build strong trusted ecosystems is to acknowledge that digital trust will always be a work-in-progress, and fundamentally, it is all about people. In my experience, the most effective way to build trust is to listen, learn and lead with empathy. When people tell you that security protocols are difficult to follow, don’t lecture them - seek to understand and find adoptable solutions. Encourage people to speak up about mistakes, and reward proactive behavior. Trust within an organization multiplies when it is generously and wisely given, and when people feel heard. Making sure security solutions are built in, not bolted on Unfortunately, some aspects of security practice have earned a bad reputation over the years, as well-meaning IT management teams implemented security solutions that placed barriers between people and the information they need to do their job. The fact is, people will find a way to work around security measures that don’t align with their business needs. As long as end-users see security as something that gets in the way, we will always face more security risks than we need to. Effective security comes from having tools and solutions that are easy to implement and follow. My philosophy is that the best security solutions are built in, not bolted on. This means giving employees guideposts to facilitate their decision-making without stifling their productivity, and trusting them to succeed. Technology can help us achieve this, such as using AI-driven tools that can automatically apply security classifications to different data types. But the goal is bigger that the tool: the point is to seamlessly integrate security into workflow processes without imposing new hurdles. For today’s leaders, investing in frictionless security solutions is a direct investment in people and culture. It creates a sense of ownership and accountability among users for the content that they create and share. This helps individual employees realize that they’re bigger than just their title in a company, which grows the trust ecosystem. Against this backdrop, there are three additional steps that security professionals can take to create a trust-based ecosystem that effectively delivers the level of security you need. Distinguishing what’s critical Part of any trusting relationship is knowing what’s important. Not everything in an organization needs to be as secure as a bank vault. Taking a one-size-fits-all approach to security has never been economical or purposeful, even before Covid-19 changed our work environments. In every organization, different types of data hold various degrees of security importance. Whether it’s financial information or health care records, leaders need a clear view of what data, if compromised, would do harm to their organization. The appropriate security controls for these crown jewels need to be identified, and integrated into the flow of work with clear lines of accountability, so that the data is protected by both the technology and the people surrounding the data. In my day-to-day work since the pandemic began, I am seeing more customers accelerate and deepen security plans that focus on the core transformations of their business. Distractions such as only hardening the perimeter (VPN, firewall, endpoint protection etc.), typically may not add incremental value to the core competencies of an organization. By differentiating what’s critical from what isn’t, leaders can successfully maximize the return on their security investments, by pre-empting problems that could irrevocably damage confidence in their organizations. Going back to basics You can’t build an addition on a house with a shaky foundation. The same is true with trust. There are core security fundamentals that form the basis of trust in every security environment: Senior leadership needs to be able to trust from the beginning that their teams have secured systems for remote work. Customers need to trust that their data is protected. Employees need to trust that there are systems in place to support them. It isn’t something you can add on as an afterthought. In a world dominated by remote work and mobile access, most organizations would benefit from strengthening the basics of identity management and implementing formal processes for monitoring and correlating security logs. Strong identity management means having a robust process for onboarding and off-boarding entities (employees, processes, APIs etc.). This prevents access proliferation, which puts your data at risk by leaving the virtual vault open to people who shouldn’t be entering it anymore. Along with best practices such as multi-factor authentication and malware detection, strong identity management helps ensure that the only people accessing your system are the people who have permission to do so. Supporting that effort with a formal process for monitoring your security logs will help you identify unauthorized access attempts early, and neutralize threats as quickly as possible. Investing in end-user education Trust is a two-way street. Security professionals know that end-user behavior is still one of the biggest risks to security, but I also believe that, with the right approach, end-users can be the biggest security advocates. Educating users about security threats and best practices is often seen as a “nice to have” that gets forgotten when a crisis emerges. However, this is exactly when security education is needed most. Social engineering has long been a primary threat vector, and the success rate with attacks is higher when everyone’s attention is diverted elsewhere. The fact is, workers are more distracted than ever in this pandemic, with many employees working from make-shift home offices, surrounded by families and pets, maybe in multi-purpose environments like kitchens and bedrooms. Yet, these same people still want to make good decisions, and they can be trusted to do so if they have the right support. Developing and communicating clear policies about trusted devices and regularly sharing information about the changing threat environment will help establish and reinforce a strong security culture, even in a changing environment. Organizations that don’t already have strong education programs don’t need to tackle this alone. They can look at leaders in this space to support them in ways that organically mesh into the culture of learning within an organization. Why does that matter when securing remote work? Because it creates a work environment full of empowered people who feel invested in the company’s success, which is a trust-based security posture that money can’t buy.

Sara Ali Khan has been giving us some stunning beachwear goals of late. After slaying in a colourful Shivan and Narresh bikini in the Maldives, the Kedarnath actor stole our attention, once again, with yet another gorgeous look. The 25-year-old actor shared the pictures on Instagram, in which is seen posing in a printed blue monokini from Esha Lal Swimwear. The outfit, with a slit around the belly, costs Rs 4,200 on the official website of The Beach Company. The monokini featured a hand-painted watercolour illustration while the fabric is made of sustainable eco-friendly fabrics and recycled raw materials, as per the website. In another look styled by Ami Patel, the actor once again sported a one-shoulder Shivan and Narresh Camo Heart bikini. The Love Aaj Kal actor was also photographed in a Tiger Toga from Studio Verandah. The toga, mentions the brand on its Instagram page, was designed to raise awareness about anti-poaching while honouring the efforts of the organisation Tiger Watch at the Ranthambore National Park to rescue a missing tiger T91. Studio Verandah further wrote, “…super soft, sustainable, designed from closed-loop lyocell, this dramatic toga dress can be worn just as easily from beach to bar.” Which of these looks do you like the most?

What is it? Just like its harder, sharper Trophy sibling, the entry-level version of Renault’s recently updated Mégane RS has been shorn of its six-speed manual gearbox. If you've read Matt Saunders’ report on the Trophy, you'll know why. It makes for pretty depressing reading, so I won’t delve into it in too much detail here, but effectively it boils down to increasingly punitive emissions-based taxation in Renault Sport’s home country. A Mégane RS with a manual gearbox will cost French buyers more in tax than one with a six-speed dual-clutch automatic, so it has been dropped altogether. Sad news. A modest hike in power and torque from the base Megane RS’s 1.8-litre four-pot petrol engine is something of a consolation, though; as is the arrival of new headlight and tail-light designs, an improved infotainment system and a redesigned instrument display. That motor now puts out 296bhp and 310lb ft instead of the 276bhp and 288lb ft it made previously and explains why it’s now called the Megane RS 300 (for 300PS, which is 296bhp) rather than the Megane RS 280. Otherwise, it’s business as usual. You still get four-wheel steering and a set of rally-style hydraulic suspension bump stops. However, the firmer, more aggressive Cup chassis is now available on pricier Trophy models only so this revised Mégane RS 300 makes do with the softer Sport chassis set-up. What's it like? It undoubtedly remains the more usable Mégane RS. Where the Trophy can feel almost unrelentingly edgy and unforgiving on bumpier stretches of road, the base car breathes a bit more freely. It still feels meaningfully taut and controlled in its body movements when you’re travelling with a bit of pace on, but I’d wager you wouldn’t find yourself scrabbling for the keys to literally anything else when faced with a simple trip to the shops. This is good news for those who plan on driving it every day - which most people undoubtedly will. The trade-off is that in gaining this extra level of pliancy and ride refinement, you lose a good deal of the bite that makes the Trophy models so exciting when the weather’s fine and you’re actually in the mood for a proper thrash. By opting for the RS 300, not only do you forgo the stiffer Cup chassis, but you also miss out on a limited-slip differential, beefier brakes and an active sports exhaust. You do notice this in tighter, more technical corners. Tip it in and the Renault’s four-wheel steering still makes it feel really agile and willing to rotate, but it just doesn’t sink its teeth in with the frenzied eagerness I remember from the earlier Cup chassis car. The wet, recently defrosted Oxfordshire B-roads I was driving on will have contributed to this impression, but even in such rubbish conditions, lateral grip levels still felt relatively high. Still, you’d get on the throttle early thinking you’d be able to power out and instead be met by an underwhelming response as the Renault scrabbled to put its power down. It’s not that you’d push into dramatic understeer: you just end up exiting a corner slower than you thought might. The 1.8-litre engine remains as boosty as ever, and on slippery roads, it can spin its front wheels quite freely when that lump of torque arrives. A lighter touch on the throttle can be handy here. Anything too brutal and you can coax a violent amount of axle tramp out of the Renault. Should I buy one? It wouldn’t be at the top of my list if I was in the market for a hot hatch. It might be more liveable with than its Trophy sibling, but I’m sure it wouldn’t be anywhere near as thrilling when the conditions were perfect and the roads were clear. Some might appreciate that more sensible balance and there’s certainly merit in taking such an approach. But other hot hatches are just as usable day to day, yet arguably even more exciting, involving and dynamically accomplished than the Mégane. The excellent Honda Civic Type R and Ford Focus ST spring to mind, to name but two.

Daniel Levy was seduced by the high-profile nature of his manager and big-name forward, but both are proving to be a long way from their best The most striking aspect of the 'All or Nothing: Tottenham' documentary on Prime Video was Daniel Levy’s reverence towards Jose Mourinho. The glint in Levy’s eye hinted at a child-like sense of awe that he was lucky enough to work – to share a thoughtful coffee; to furrow his brow over transfer targets – with a legend of the game. Levy was star struck. When the documentary first aired it looked like a disarmingly sweet, but irrelevant, detail that served to highlight just how far Levy had taken the club. It was only a few years after he first became chairman that Mourinho arrived at Tottenham’s rivals Chelsea and took the Premier League by storm. Levy had every right to feel chuffed that he had convinced the Special One to work for him. But as things begin to sour in north London, as a familiar sense of terminal decline begins to surface among the fan base of a Mourinho team, Levy’s apparent relationship with the Spurs manager starts to look like part of the problem. After years of careful building under Mauricio Pochettino, Levy succumbed to romanticism, allowing himself to be lured in by the idea of Mourinho and a big-club mentality. And with the benefit of hindsight it is perhaps the same wide-eyed, toy-shop management that brought Gareth Bale back to the club. Bale’s poor form, a consequence of dwindling talent that was understood at Real Madrid but overlooked with wilful ignorance by Premier League fans yearning for the good old days, follows the same trajectory as Mourinho: a name and an idea that is no longer operating anywhere near the peak of their powers. Until 2019, Tottenham were a club who latched onto rising stars, who invested in potential. In Bale and Mourinho they have caught two superstars on their downswing. It is a lesson in patience and restraint; in resolving to hold firm with the project rather than seek short-cuts into the elite. It is too early to condemn Mourinho’s Spurs, who are within touching distance of the top four and remain in three cups, but after Sunday’s woeful performance against Brighton there is a sense that the tide is turning against him. And that is a bigger problem for Mourinho than it would be for most other managers, because both tactically and psychologically his powers rely on a collective belief in them; once the wizard’s curtain is pulled back the entire concept falls apart. Mourinho’s Spurs have become a dull defensive team incapable of holding onto slender leads and over-reliant on Harry Kane and Son Heung-min to create counterattacking chances. This is a direct consequence of a deliberate tactical ploy to play conservatively, but it is also a consequence of a management style that is low on tactical detail and dependent on psychological force. This helps explain why Spurs are playing without a clear game plan and why they keep retreating late in matches despite Mourinho’s insistence he is not instructing them to do so. Rather than coach a detailed attacking structure, Mourinho expects his players to solve problems, which is not only out-dated in a modern age of tactical uber-geeks but makes Spurs prone to experiencing low self-esteem as total crisis. There is nothing to fall back on - no automated coding to re-engage - when creativity drains away. The inability to pick themselves up, or capitalise on a one-goal lead, gets to the heart of the psychological stranglehold of a Mourinho team. He is not telling them to sit back, but when his tactics include passivity instead of pressing, cautious defensive blocks instead of riskier high lines, and hesitant late substitutions instead of bold changes, then the players subconsciously get the message. Mourinho carries a weight with him, a rich psychological history; an aura of a master hypnotist who inspires extraordinary feats of collective self-belief and equally extraordinary collapses once the spell is broken. The Tottenham players held the same narrative as the rest of us when he was first appointed, so it should come as no surprise that they invested in it, in the same way magicians use the audience’s belief – a placebo effect – to perform hypnotisms. At the moment, and with little tactical detail to instruct them, this has seen the Spurs players exacerbate their defensive conservatism. Since the 3-3 draw with West Ham in October, Tottenham have looked spooked, taking increasingly risk-averse decisions; slowly retreating until the opponent pounces on them. Mourinho has only made this worse with his team selections, most recently picking three out-and-out centre-backs for the trip to Brighton, while fashioning a system that increases the reliance on Kane and Son. The outcome of this is a sense of paralysis and fear. Spurs shimmy and jockey about the pitch looking completely passive as teams simply play straight through them. It is a defensive frailty that speaks to Mourinho’s out-dated tactical model and the compounding effect of the players clumsily problem-solving by doubling down on the conservatism – assuming this is the manager’s preference and fearing his wrath. Mourinho’s own bafflement (note the wild tactical swing at half-time against Brighton) is even more cause for alarm, particularly when his response tends towards self-preservation; towards throwing players under the bus. Presumably it creates a completely different atmosphere to the warmth and collectivism fostered by Pochettino. The problem with dull, defensive football is that there is no good will in the bank when something goes wrong. And the problem with hiring a manager whose vision is built on the collective belief in his power is that the players have no real structure to fall back on when their self-belief takes a knock. Put these two things together and you get a negative spiral that accelerates over time. Back when Mourinho was an unstoppable champion – when presumably, like the rest of us, Levy first became enamoured – this came after a period of huge success. But we can say with increasing confidence that the modern Premier League has little use for his tactical philosophy, not in an age when the territorial dominance of the big clubs (a consequence of the increasing wealth divide) makes detailed possession and collective pressing a basic necessity. One Premier League manager has already lost their job this season because of their inability to conform to contemporary tactical trends, and it may not be a coincidence that Frank Lampard’s most influential coach during his playing days was Mourinho. But what is a coincidence is that like Lampard with Mason Mount, there is one player who has come to symbolise the perceived failures of the Mourinho regime. There is still time for Bale to come good and for Tottenham to turn their season around. But unfortunately, it increasingly looks like he was an expensive mistake made by a chairman suckered in by romanticism. It was, perhaps, the second such mistake in the space of a year.

Agadir – As the Moroccan House of Representatives prepares for a parliamentary session on the discussion of the situation of prisons on Tuesday, February 2, the house’s commission of justice carried out a fact-finding mission in three Moroccan penal establishments. The report noted the excessive use of punishment for people held in isolation, citing 1,918 such incidents in 2018 in the prison of Oukacha alone. The commission highlighted the overcrowding of prisons as the major concern It estimates that Moroccan prisons are at 75% over capacity. The Oukacha prison is the most overcrowded prison in Morocco, mostly due to the number of prisoners in pre-trial detention. Other concerns discussed in the report are the difficulties of securing orders from the prison store, and the size of the inmates’ promenade, a mere 150 meters for 500 inmates. The report also raised concerns over the inmates of Toulal 1 prison in Meknes and the Moul Berki prison in Safi, citing the remoteness of the locations. Many prisoners are demanding to be transferred to establishments closer to their families. The commission also noted that Morocco lacks the facilities to ensure the fair treatment of minors within the penitentiary system. It pointed to the Oukacha prison as one such example. According to the report, the Casablanca-based prison does not separate minors from adults, neither does it have a psychiatrist or a maternity ward. The only positive point in the report concerns the El Hoceima prison, where juvenile detainees are given larger cells and more time for walks and family visits. The Moroccan parliamentarians also pointed to the weakness of judicial control over penitentiary establishments as another major concern. The report found that many prisoners are receiving insufficient medical care. Attempting to improve the situation of prisoners in Morocco, the government hopes to turn prisons into a place of learning and training. Mohammed V University is providing lectures, books, and scientific papers for the inmates, hoping to prepare them for the outside world. The commission of justice concluded its report by issuing 40 recommendations for improving the situation of Moroccan prisoners. It argued that Moroccan authorities should pay particular attention to improving the legal and organizational framework of the penitentiary system. The report also stressed the need for ensuring that detainees’ rights are respected and that prisoners have access to essential services.

Our GPU benchmarks performance hierarchy ranks all the current and previous generation graphics cards, including all of the best graphics cards, in terms of performance. Whether it's playing games or doing high-end creative work like 4K video editing, your graphics card typically plays the biggest role in determining performance, and even the best gaming CPUs take a second role. Note that the table below is based solely on the scores from performance-based GPU benchmarks. We have a separate article that lists the best graphics cards, based on all factors, including price, graphics card power consumption, and overall efficiency. In this latest edition, we've updated the tables and charts with results from the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti and Radeon RX 6900 XT. If you're looking for a good deal on a graphics card this holiday season, we have some bad news. Component shortages, particularly on graphics cards, mean you'll be lucky to find the card you want at all, never mind finding it at a good price. Even previous generation cards are currently often selling (used) for more than the original launch price. Maybe later in 2021 we'll have a decent supply of GPUs at sane prices, but like so many other things in 2020, the latest hardware launches have been awful. To help you decide which graphics card you need, we've created this GPU hierarchy consisting of dozens of GPU benchmarks in the table below. Everything is ranked from fastest to slowest, using the results from our test suite consisting of nine games for our GPU benchmarks, running at 'medium' and 'ultra' settings with resolutions of 1080p, 1440p, and 4K. For comparison purposes, the fastest card, based on the combination of all nine GPU benchmarks, three resolutions, and two settings, gets normalized to 100 percent, and all others are graded relative to it. The arrival of Nvidia's Ampere architecture, along with the GeForce RTX 3090, GeForce RTX 3080, GeForce RTX 3070, and GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, has pushed everything down a couple of rungs. AMD's Big Navi and the Radeon RX 6800 XT and RX 6800, plus the Radeon RX 6900 XT, have joined the ranks of the highest performance GPUs. They're also some of the highest priced GPUs, and they're all sold out. Of course it's not just about playing games. Many applications use the GPU for other work, and we've covered some of the GPU benchmarks in our RTX 3090 review. But a good graphics card for gaming will typically do equally well in complex GPU computational workloads. Buy one of the top cards and you'd be able to play games at high resolutions and frame rates with the effects turned all the way up, and you'll be able to do content creation work equally well. Drop down to the middle and lower portions of the list and you'll need to start dialing down the settings to get acceptable performance in regular game play and GPU benchmarks. And integrated graphics ... well, we've tested that as well, and the results aren't pretty. (See the very bottom of the list for those entries.) It's important to note that all of the games and settings we're using for testing have to conform to the lowest common denominator. That means ray tracing and proprietary tech like Nvidia's DLSS aren't enabled, even where they're supported. We've included our most recent DXR benchmark results from the 6900 XT review at the bottom of the article, but those scores aren't factored into the rankings. The short summary: Nvidia is faster at RT, and DLSS can provide a nice boost to performance. If your main goal is gaming, you of course can't forget about the CPU. Getting the best possible gaming GPU won't help you much if your CPU is under-powered and/or out of date. So be sure to check out the Best Gaming CPUs page, as well as our CPU Benchmarks Hierarchy to make sure you have the right CPU for the level of gaming you're looking to achieve. GPU Benchmarks: Which Cards Ranked Highest? The Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 takes top honors for raw performance, with a composite score of 152.7 fps across all 54 tests. That's the 100% mark, though it's worth noting that it also scored 98.7 fps at 4K ultra. It's also a $1,500 graphics card, which is out of reach of most gamers. Not too far behind the 3090 are the Radeon RX 6900 XT, Radeon RX 6800 XT, and GeForce RTX 3080, nominally priced at $1,000, $650 and $700, respectively (if you can find one in stock). The 6900 XT is a minor bump in performance for a relatively large bump in price compared to the 6800 XT, and we'd generally recommend sticking with the latter. The 6800 XT is also technically faster than the 3080 by our ranking formula, though it's important to note that ray tracing and DLSS very much change the picture. Add those in and the 3080 easily beats even the 6900 XT. The new GPUs make all of AMD's and Nvidia's previous generation GPUs suddenly look a bit weak. The same goes for the Radeon RX 6800 and GeForce RTX 3070, which match or beat the outgoing RTX 2080 Ti with a starting price of just $580 or $500, respectively. The RTX 3060 Ti meanwhile leads the old 2080 Super in performance and costs 42 percent less. AMD's Navi 21 GPUs, aka Big Navi, finally break into the top three overall, even including Titan cards. That's something AMD hasn't managed since the Vega 64 launch (where it came in third). AMD is also mostly at feature parity with Nvidia now, with both companies supporting ray tracing. Except, Nvidia has Tensor cores that help with other tasks like DLSS, Nvidia Broadcast, RTX Voice, and potentially more, plus Nvidia's ray tracing performance is definitely still faster in the majority of DXR (DirectX Raytracing) games. If you're in the market for a new sub-$500 graphics card right now, the RTX 3060 Ti is currently the card to get. It's a bit slower than the 3070, but overall it's the best price to performance ratio of all the modern GPUs. We'll probably see RTX 3060 and RX 6700 cards in early 2021, but unfortunately, it's still a terrible time to buy a graphics card, as all of the most desirable GPUs are either out of stock or seriously overpriced. We've seen RTX 2060 Super selling at over $500 ($100 more than the launch price), and RTX 2070 Super going for $600 or more (again, $100 more than the launch price). AMD's RX 5700 at one point could be had for under $300, but good luck finding one for less than $400 these days. The RX 5700 XT can often be found for a lower price than the vanilla 5700, assuming you can find either in stock. If you can find a reasonable deal on a latest generation GPU right now, great! But don't pay more for a previous gen GPU just because there aren't enough RX 6800 series or RTX 30-series GPUs to meet the current demand. Eventually, supply will catch up, and that will be the right time to buy. If you can't wait, our advice is to just try and find any old GPU that still works to hold you over. Even a budget card will suffice, and at least those aren't likely to be completely obliterated before 2021 rolls in. That brings us to the bottom third of the list, the home of true budget GPUs like the GTX 1650 Super, RX 5500 XT, and more. These cards give up a lot of performance in order to keep pricing down, and there are older generation GPUs that can perform just as well (or better) if you shop around. But component shortages are affecting even budget GPUs, and we've seen prices on many of these cards increase 10% or more in the past month alone. Sticking with relatively current GPUs, the GTX 1660 Super, 1650 Super, and RX 5600 XT are the best options for around $250 or less. Also, the RX 5600 XT seems to be selling at over $300 now, which is just ... yuck! Again, the higher you go on price, the more likely you are to see new GPUs arrive in the near future that make current cards look anemic. Based on what's currently available at somewhat reasonable prices, the 1650 Super and RX 5500 XT are currently the best budget options. We don't recommend going below the GTX 1650 Super, though if you already have such a card you don't have to upgrade. There are tons of light and indie games that will run just fine on ... well, practically anything! Even Intel's integrated graphics solutions are often sufficient, particularly more recent variants like UHD 630 and Iris Plus. But there's still a better option if you're on an extreme budget. If you're looking at something like an RX 550 or GT 1030, you should consider AMD's integrated graphics on its Ryzen APUs as a viable alternative. If you have an older PC and are looking at adding a GPU, a motherboard and CPU upgrade might end up being a better option. Or not, as even a basic motherboard, CPU, and RAM can set you back $200 or more. We're interested in seeing what happens with the next generation of integrated graphics as well. Tiger Lake laptops sometimes double the performance of Ice Lake graphics, and AMD also has updated Zen 2 APUs with faster graphics as well. (We'll be testing both of these options soon enough for inclusion in the hierarchy.) Okay, maybe buying a basic GPU isn't a bad idea rather than dealing with a full motherboard and CPU upgrade (depending on what sort of CPU you're rocking). Provided you can provide at least a 6-pin PEG power connector, though, we recommend going for at least something at the RX 570 level or above rather than picking up a lesser graphics card. Also worth noting is that the scoring assigned to each GPU uses all six test resolutions and settings, except on integrated graphics where we scale the result — because, come on, no one is going to try and run Borderlands 3 at 4K on an iGPU. (It will probably just crash.) If you want to check performance at just 1080p medium, or one of the other options, you can see the ranking order for the main GPUs in the charts below. Test System for GPU Benchmarks Intel Core i9-9900K Corsair H150i Pro RGB MSI MEG Z390 Ace Corsair 32GB DDR4-3200 (2x 16GB) XPG SX8200 Pro 2TB Windows 10 Pro (1909) Our overall GPU benchmarks scores are based on the geometric mean frames per second (fps) of our testing of Borderlands 3, The Division 2, Far Cry 5, Final Fantasy XIV, Forza Horizon 4, Metro Exodus, Red Dead Redemption 2, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, and Strange Brigade. If you want to do your own GPU benchmarking, see our complete list of the best GPU tests, which includes a lot more games and synthetic tests as well. That's nine games, six settings and over 40 cards from the current and previous generations. We have a solid mix of game genres and APIs, plus AMD and Nvidia promoted titles, making this the definitive GPU benchmarks and performance hierarchy for gaming purposes. Due to the mix of various generations of GPUs, note that we don't include ray tracing or DLSS testing in any of the figures. That does penalize Nvidia's RTX cards quite a bit, and the RX 6800 series as well, since previous generation GPUs can't even try to run ray tracing in most games. GPU Benchmarks and Performance Hierarchy Charts Here you can see the average performance charts for our testing at 1080p, 1440p, and 4K (medium and ultra on all three). If you want to see the full suite of individual game tests, check out the charts in our Best Graphics Cards article. We've focused on the 'executive summary' and have omitted individual game charts as well as a few GPUs that don't fully qualify. We've left off the integrated graphics solutions as well as many older GPUs, plus omitted the Titan cards. That gives us 32 GPUs in the charts, color coded for your viewing pleasure. Yes, we know the labels on the charts are tiny. We've also included links to the full-size (1920x1080) images below each chart for those on smaller devices that want to be able to read them. Again, our GPU benchmarks scoring uses the geometric mean of all 54 scores (nine games, three resolutions, two settings). The geomean is a slightly 'better' weighting than a pure average, though it doesn't massively change the results. Either way, including all 54 scores means the fastest cards are somewhat penalized because they run into CPU limitations at 1080p and even 1440p, and the slower GPUs can also end up penalized because they were never intended to run games at 1440p or 4K. If you intend to play at 1440p or 4K, the charts below can help you focus in on just those results. For example, the RTX 3080 overall scored 20.8% higher than the RTX 2080 Ti, but if you only look at 4K ultra performance, it's 33.5% faster.

Apple has launched a new Chrome extension to help iCloud users remember their passwords. The new iCloud Passwords tool will sync passwords between the Safari and Chrome web browsers. “iCloud Passwords is a Chrome extension for Windows users that allows you to use the same strong Safari passwords you create on your iPhone, iPad or Mac when visiting websites in Chrome on your Windows PC,” the Chrome web store explains. “iCloud Passwords also saves any new passwords you create in Chrome to your iCloud Keychain so that they are also available on your Apple devices.” Users of iCloud for Windows will now see a new “Passwords” section under the list of available services (providing they have updated to version 12.0). By then clicking “Apply,” they will be redirected to download the new Chrome extension. Check out our roundup of the best password managers We've assembled a list of the best anonymous browsers Also, here's our list of the best password management software around Password protected Once the iCloud Passwords extension is running, Chrome users will gain access to the passwords that they have created, had automatically generated, or saved in Safari for macOS or iOS. The feature also works reciprocally, with any passwords stored in Chrome also becoming available on iPhone, iPad, and other Apple devices. The new extension becomes part of a relatively small group of tools that Apple offers on the Windows ecosystem. Before the launch of iCloud Passwords, Apple’s only Windows solutions of note, besides iTunes, were iCloud Bookmarks for older PCs, and Apple TV+ for Xbox users. Password management remains a hot topic in the security sector, however, particularly as a huge number of data leaks still occur due to inadequate password protection. The new iCloud sync tool should help prevent password fatigue for Chrome users, encouraging them to use stronger credentials.

Hello @david_okaso Firstly, you need to join one of our projects (Journalist , Devil Harmony, Dealers , Gamblers , VGR ..), make a good activity there & you can come back with a new request Good Luck !

Active ingredients have been the talk of the beauty town and if you are a beauty aficionado — you will agree with it. Whether it is retinol or a Vitamin C — everyone wants to add active skincare ingredients to their routine because of the fast visible results everyone has. In a bid to achieve the same, we end up buying products that do not work for us and rather pose more problems than offering solutions for our skincare concerns. That is why ahead, Mansi Chowdhary, Director, Body Cupid shares top pointers to keep in mind while investing in the same. This is a basic and the first step one should take while buying a skincare product. While there might be names which are hard to decipher or understand most labels do have the key ingredients mentioned in names that you will recognise. “This might take you a little extra time, but you can find out a bit more about the benefits of the key actives by doing some research or asking a skincare expert about them,” says Chowdhary. The trick to understanding is to take note of the place of the active ingredient in the list. “The ingredients are often listed in the order of highest to the lowest concentration. It’s a good idea to check the first five or six listed actives to get an idea of what the product will do for your skin. If your active ingredient is listed way below, then know that the concentration of the active in the product is low and may not deliver the result you are looking for” she further explains. Avoid giving into hype With an industry which launches a new product every single day, it is tough not to get swayed into buying products that are showcased. In fact, the attractive packaging is a great pull too. While it might not be easy to avoid the raving reviews of the products, what you can do is focus on the kind of skin type you have to begin with and understand if the product is truly meant for your skin. Picking the right actives When buying a product for your skin follow these tips to ensure your skin gets the best care: For oily skin ” If you have very oily skin or skin that is prone to clogging then use lightweight water or gel-based product. Look for natural exfoliants and mild acids AHAs to ensure healthy skin renewal and exfoliation to prevent clogging” says Chowdhary. She also explains that AHAs like salicylic acid, lactic acid, glycolic acid are excellent in exfoliating your skin’s top layer. This helps balance excess sebum in the skin as well. For dry skin To protect and repair dry skin you need to not only deliver deep hydration but put in an emollient and maintain healthy lipid and moisture mantle on the skin. “Rich creamy product with shea butter, cocoa butter, olive oil, almond oil all work well. Dry skin people often suffer from patchy complexion due to irregular exfoliation, so an exfoliating face wash gel can help to restore glow” she suggests. For sensitive skin Redness and chapped skin can be a common issue if you have sensitive skin that needs very gentle and lightweight care. Look for actives like oatmeal, aloe vera, shea butter in your label list. “Avoid products that list actives like SLES, parabens, sulfate, silicones. While they might improve product texture or give you that extra little foam or slick, these harms the skin the long run. Instead pick products that have hyaluronic acid, ceramides, niacinamide, tocopherol or vitamin E, ascorbic acid or vitamin C listed in the label” adds Chowdhary.
