ID-COOLING has announced the SE-234-ARGB tower-type CPU heatsink. The heatsink features an ARGB fan and RGB lighting on the shroud as well. The RGB LEDs are powered by a single header that connects to a motherboard 5V 3-pin ARGB header, utilizing ASUS Aura, MSI Mystic Lighting, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, and ASRock Polychrome Sync technologies. For motherboards that don’t feature an ARGB 3-pin header, there is an internal cable controller for multiple RGB lighting effects. ID-COOLING has announced the SE-234-ARGB CPU Heatsink Cooler which is perfect for keeping the colors going! The included ARGB fan is a 120 x 120 x 25 mm fan utilizes a 2-ball bearing design, offering higher durability and a long lifespan. To reduce noise this fan has eight rubber dampeners on each corner. This fan has a variable speed of 900 RPM to 2,000 RPM with PWM support while pushing 56.5 CFM air at maximum speed, at the fastest speed this fan makes 31.5 dBA of noise and at the lowest speed makes 16.2 dBA of noise. To maximize airflow even further this CPU cooler heatsink uses an x-shape fin design. The x-shape fin design allows for the air from the fan to be pulled through the heatsink at a much faster rate. This CPU cooler utilizes a metal-mecha mounting system, which is a metal mounting kit that offers support for both Intel LGA2066/2011/1151/1150/1155/1156 and AMD’s AM4 socket.

If you'd have told us 27 years ago that Mario and Sonic would one day share the same virtual space, we'd have laughed in your face (this review isn't supposed to rhyme, by the way). The very notion that the moustachioed plumber would ever be mates with the spiky blue blur (and vice-versa) seemed like the realm of pure fantasy, but since the old days of SEGA and Nintendo competing for eyeballs and thumbs, it's something that has happened on multiple occasions. Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 (to give it its full title) is, in fact, the sixth time the duo has teamed up to appear at the Olympics together, and it's rather good fun. Mario and Sonic are firm friends, then, which is fortunate as Dr. Eggman and Bowser have joined forces and are up to their old tricks. This time, Eggman (Dr. Robotnik to you and I) has devised a portable video game console that captures Sonic and Mario, transforming them into their original pixellated guises while sending them to the Tokyo 1964 Olympic Games. As Luigi and Tails do their sidekick business, rounding up allies back in 2020, Mario and Sonic are stuck in their retro world, competing against Eggman and Bowser to win gold medals that provide the key to their escape. As Mario and Sonic, you're racing to bag all of the gold medals and get out, which means beating the baddies at their own game. Simple. What follows is a succession of events and mini-games, all wrapped up in a largely forgettable, throwaway narrative that serves as a whistle-stop tour of everything the game has to offer. Gymnastics, discus, hurdles, archery, canoeing, climbing, karate, triple jump... It's all here, and much of it is highly entertaining, but when you can play any event without the unnecessary story bits, why even bother with Story Mode in the first place? The answer is for the 8-bit/16-bit sojourns to the 1964 Olympics, where there's button-mashing, old-school versions of events and mini-games that will have SEGA Mega Drive and NES owners losing their shit. Mario flying Tails' plane as Sonic stands on the wings in a brief shmup sequence featuring Sonic the Hedgehog 2 enemies? Yes! Mario in a speedboat jumping off ramps while chasing Bowser? Wonderful. Chasing down Eggman's car in a sequence like Sonic 2's bonus level? Sublime. The 2020 portion of the game has its own highlights, too, like a bit of Where's Wally searching but with Toads, or scaling the Tokyo tower as Tails. You can replay all of these via the Game Room and also leaf through all of the Olympic Games trivia you've collected, if you're so inclined. By and large, Mario and Sonic's 34 events are hit and miss, which is to be expected. For every bout of fun fencing or surprisingly excellent game of rugby sevens, there's a rubbish game of 16-bit volleyball or slightly silly equestrian event. Most are rendered infinitely more palatable and fun when playing with friends or using the Joy-Con's motion controls to chuck a javelin or punch one another's digital faces. Expect this to be a party favourite over the ensuing festive season – even granny can sling a javelin, although you probably won't want to watch her performing the required action using the Joy-Con. Everything here is lovingly presented; an exuberant smile-inducing package that's likely to appeal to kids and adults alike. The story portion of the game can get a bit dull, save for the 8/16-bit segments, but beyond that, this is a lovely big mélange of colourful sporting events. Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 is also a joyful celebration of SEGA and Nintendo's present, as well as its glorious past, harbouring a stupidly enjoyable rugby event and an extremely competent footie mini-game that gives FIFA a run for its money (not really, but y'know). You'll be boxing, fencing, running, jumping, shooting, and hitting things until the real 2020 Olympic Games start, in July. Maybe. ° Developer: Sega ° Publisher: Sega ° Available on: Nintendo Switch ° Release Date: November 5, 2019

Happy Birthday

A study of 2,000 adults found a fast pace of life combined with rising work pressures and a phone that never stops means few people "switch off". Other factors include the stress of being a parent, longer commuting times and financial pressures amid rising costs of living. Two thirds of those polled believe a lifestyle that leaves no time to decompress is taking its toll on health and emotional wellbeing. The research found those who do find the time, only do so for an average of 54 minutes a day. The research also found the difficulties we have switching off mean we’re left feeling "mentally frazzled" twice a week on average. Despite this, the Twinings research carried out through OnePoll, found many of those polled have made changes to their daily routine to help them better relax. These include taking longer tea breaks during their working day, not looking at their mobile devices in the evening and reading a book before going to bed. Other methods include taking more tea breaks, doing exercise and enforcing a ‘no talking about work’ rule when at home. SWNS

The North American firm Dodge has refined like no other the art of manufacturing muscle cars, and although it is true both the Ford Mustang and the Chevrolet Camaro are excellent sports cars, their gradual evolution has gradually removed them from the traditional concept of muscle car or pony car. While, for its part, the Challenger has been improving the formula. Surely you will say that the Demon would actually be the king, since it is more powerful (840hp), but you have to clarify a couple of things, to achieve that power you need special fuel for competitions and in second, it is a car developed expressly for arrancones, while the Redeye, is a sports car designed to sow terror in the streets, roads and even, although it is heavy, on the slopes too. Returning to the mechanical aspect of the Hellcat Redeye Widebody, the 2.7-liter Roots supercharger is the largest used in any production vehicle, with which the blowing power increases up to 14.5 psi, while the speed limit grows to 6,500 laps Butt of performance, this bestial V8 consumes 5.4 liters per minute, which would end the tank in just 11 minutes. For its part the automatic transmission is the well-known eight-speed TorqueFlite with manual mode, which by the way is very fast and sends all the power to the rear rollers. All of the above allows the Redeye to accelerate from 0 - 100 km / h in 3.4 seconds, complete the quarter mile in 10.8 seconds and reach a maximum speed of 326 km / h.

The year 2019 is finally over and it has been either a great year for gamers or a horrible one - depending on who you ask. Both AMD and NVIDIA launched new (major) products. Intel was somewhat absent this year and only managed to squeeze out a new mobility architecture (best of luck to them for 2020) on the 10nm process. PC hardware: All the latest and greatest releases of 2019 It has been an absolutely great year for AMD with the company achieving breakout success with its Zen 2 launch. While Zen was considered to be an *almost as good* alternative to Intel's processors, Zen 2 is on par with Intel's greatest and actually beats it in specific benchmarks. At the same time, while Intel processors are getting security vulnerabilities discovered every day (and applying mitigations for these slows them down), AMD processors are having a relatively smooth cruise. From a value proposition perspective, AMD's Zen 2-based processors are now in the disruptive stage of their life cycle, taking the company from a $3 company to a $40 behemoth. While most enthusiasts would know Zen 2 through the launched Ryzen 3000 desktop processors, EPYC is where this microarchitecture made the biggest splash. Fixing AMD's HPC weakness that was present in Zen, it has singlehandedly made AMD the most competitive x86 company on the planet and took Intel by surprise. Zen 2 also forced Intel to hand out price cuts in its lineup and more are expected to follow as Intel transitions to 10nm in 2020. Zen 2 has been an absolute success story for the company and going forward in 2020, we expect Zen 3 to be even better. While AMD's CPU side has been killing it, the GPU side has taken a slow-burn approach to things. The company's 7nm based Navi GPU offers great performance for an affordable price point and has helped the company a lot in terms of finances (7nm is great economies of scale and is much cheaper to manufacture than 14/16nm parts). Unfortunately, however, we did not see Big Navi this year (which is in line with our exclusive published almost two years ago) and leaks would tell us we might catch a glimpse before 2020 is up. So Big Navi parts are another aspect to look forward to from AMD in 2020. NVIDIA's Turing/SUPER GPUs were initially debuted in late 2018 with the flagship part but it wasn't until 2019 that we saw a drastic reduction in premium and the advent of the SUPER series (as well as the RTX 2060 etc). NVIDIA's Turing GPUs were meant to be a revolution in the industry of GPUs with their raytracing techniques and while that didn't happen - the launch did kick start a very slow but steady burn in the industry to support raytracing at a hardware level (any Turing complete machine can run raytracing on a software level). The company also launched NVIDIA's non-RTX Turing cards like the GTX 1650 in 2019 and these were the ones that would go on to become the company's bread and butter graphics. NVIDIA has been one of the most consistent companies in terms of product launches and we have no doubt that 2020 is going to be even greater with the upcoming launch of the rumored Ampere GPUs. Intel is the only company on our list which would probably want to forget 2019 ever happened. The company faced a tough time with rising competition from AMD, security vulnerabilities being discovered and its 10nm process getting delayed to 2020 (while the company has technically launched Ice Lake 10th Gen processors, desktop parts won't land till 2020). The only major launch of the company was the introduction of its Ice Lake processors on the mobility side in late 2019. Considering the fact Intel has already claimed the 10nm mobility milestone with CNL mobility processors (which were then EOL-ed) that did not ship in volume, this is not something that caused a lot of hue and cry. The major excitement coming from the Intel camp has to do with its Xe graphics efforts which are expected to bear their first fruit in 2020. We also expect the company to (finally) transition to the 10nm node in mid-2020 and roll out Ice Lake on the desktop side of things as well.

Microsoft reported quarterly earnings that toppled analysts’ expectations Thursday as its key cloud product nearly doubled its revenue. Microsoft’s cloud business brought in $6.86 billion in revenue during the fiscal second quarter. That figure came in both above analyst expectations and the company’s own guidance. Analysts expected the company’s cloud business to bring in about $6.73 billion in revenue, according to a StreetAccount consensus estimate. That figure was in the high end of the range Microsoft projected for the segment — $6.55 billion to $6.75 billion. The company said revenue from its major cloud offering, Azure, grew 93 percent year over year. Growth in cloud revenue is seen as a key indicator of Microsoft’s progress as the company transitions away from legacy businesses. In October, the stock broke through its 1999 highs after the company said Azure saw revenue growth of 116 percent. CEO Satya Nadella said Microsoft customers are “greater value and opportunity as we partner with them through their digital transformation.” “Accelerating advancements in AI across our platforms and services will provide further opportunity to drive growth in the Microsoft Cloud,” Nadella said in a statement. On Thursday, the stock initially dropped about 1 percent in after-hours trading, but then reversed those losses to trade as much as 1 percent higher. It was last about flat in extended trading. The company posted second-quarter adjusted earnings per share of 83 cents on revenue of $26.07 billion. Analysts projected Microsoft to report earnings of 79 cents a share on $25.3 billion in revenue, according to Thomson Reuters consensus estimates. Earlier Thursday, Microsoft shares hit a fresh all-time intraday high of $64.54. The stock is up 23 percent in the past 12 months. The Street also expects Microsoft to formally announce 700 job cuts as part of its previously announced plan to cut 2,850 jobs by June 2017. The company also completed its $26.2 billion acquisition of LinkedIn on Dec. 8.

If I had to be a human being and only have 30 ammunition, what would I buy? Jetpack or Tryder

Pokémon Shield is a pioneer. With a new platform comes a cluster of changes, a flurry of firsts. It’s the first game in the series to use an autosave, to have cut down the Pokédex, to turn the little beasties into behemoths, with the new Gigantamax forms. It’s also the first time we’ve found out that a world filled with Pokémon would be dread-full. The Galar Region’s Wild Area is the biggest addition to the Pokémon world order. This time, Trainers will come across wandering Wooloos and grumbling Growlithe in the grass, and the region feels like a proper ecosystem. Some critters will run and hide, some will watch you curiously, and some will hunt you down like a dog. Nothing compares to the utter terror of encountering a giant Dusclops in a thunderstorm and having it zoom, at the speed of light, towards your placidly smiling Trainer. It’s a delight to scurry round and be surprised by the creatures that scamper and chirrup the way that real creatures do. And you won’t be able to catch those who are many levels above you, in much the same way that you wouldn’t be able to catch a cat that’s smarter than you (hint: they’re all smarter than you). Sure, some of the environmental assets don’t look beautiful—the thunderstorm ambience roars but the trees are still and blockish—but I’m not looking at the trees. I’m looking at the Liepard stalking the grasses and hoping it doesn’t decide I’m lunch. okémon Sword and Pokémon Shield both have eight Gyms, which vary depending on which game you get. Shield has the Grass, Water, Fire, Ghost, Fairy, Ice, and Dragon Gyms, and the Galar Region, the setting of both games, is simply barmy for the competitive scene. Like the Kahuna feature in Sun and Moon, the Gyms have special challenges before the Trainer meets the Leader. For the first three Gyms, these were awesome, but then petered off into a pinball thing, a quiz, and a maze. Each Gym battle begins in a stadium packed to the brim with attendees, all whooping support and cheers for their favourite. As the Pokémon score critical hits and are knocked out, the crowd will “ooh” and “aah,” and it’s ridiculous and thrilling. Don’t even get them started on the Dynamax and Gigantamax forms, also known as when a Pokémon transforms into a hulk and gets unique moves. The crowd goes nuts. It’s understandable; seeing a Gigantamax Gengar would cause me to brick it, too. The region is peppered with cities and towns that are fully realised in three dimensions. With silly names like Circhester, Motostoke, and Wyndon, the locales have locals who call out “Howzit, mate?” as the Trainer sprints past them to the Pokémon Centre. At these Pokémon Centres, there are new features that add to the Galar Region experience. Galarians love Pokémon and use them to help out with various professions, and certain types of Pokémon are better suited to certain tasks. Sending a team of Fire-type Pokémon to a restaurant will award them with oodles of experience, even if they’ve been stuck in the Box. And, Pokémon will be able to remember a move that the player skips over when they level up. These additions are an inspired mechanism for keeping all of a Trainer’s Pokémon viable in battle and allows for flexibility for new players. Me being one of those new kids on the block. Bringing the community together, the online features offer Special Trades and Link Trades and Battles, which is the norm. What is new are the Max Raid Battles. In the Wild Area, there are pits in the ground that glow with mysterious red light. Players will engage in a battle with a Dynamaxed wild Pokémon and other players can join in the fight. These are alright, but what I love the most is the Pokémon Camp. At any moment during the Trainer’s journey, they can set up a tent for the team to use as a pit stop. Other players wandering the Wild Area will drop by, and their Pokémon will play with their new pals. Chatting with the Pokémon will increase their friendship but cooking them curry is a whole ‘nother level. Curries can cure status conditions, award experience points, and replenish health points. And, it’s so cute to watch your Trainer and Pokémon timidly test this experimental recipe made from fast food leftovers, sweet and sour berries, and a helping of rice. Miraculously, it tastes delicious, which may be an indictment of Galarian (read: British) cuisine. But, there are issues with it. I experienced a bit of stuttering, none of the six million players of Sword and/or Shield wanted to do a Special Trade with me, the textures in the Wild Area don’t look fabulous, and I was sad that my baby Bulbasaur didn’t make it into the Pokédex. Online Trainers in the Wild Area give you curry ingredients or rare treasures, but, due to connection issues, they’ll pop in and out like odd but friendly ghosts. The Gyms lose steam rapidly, and the writing isn’t winning any awards. But then, I remember that this is a game for children. It’s a game that would appeal to veteran Trainers and to rookie players alike, with the new changes that shake up the meta and simplifies the strategy that has been built up for more than twenty years. The game directors explained that developing for the Nintendo Switch was a unique challenge, and Game Freak has been churning out Pokémon games on a yearly basis. Some things are going to slip, intentionally or unintentionally. This is my first Pokémon RPG. I play Pokémon GO and I started SoulSilver but didn’t get very far with it. The changes that Pokémon Sword and Shield have brought makes this game much more accessible for me and makes sense within the story. It might not be the very best, but it’s pretty darn close.

Your major appliances work hard for you. So why not pay some attention to your washer, dryer, dishwasher, fridge and stove? “Lots of people think that the function of the washing machine or the dishwasher is to clean, so it must just clean itself,” says Melissa Maker, who runs a cleaning service and the Clean My Space blog. “This isn’t the case. Over time, if you don’t keep these machines clean, there are things that can lead to their demise.” First, dig out each appliance’s manual. If you’ve misplaced it, you can probably get a version of it online. You might be surprised at what you find. I just pulled out the manual for my seven-year-old KitchenAid dishwasher to see whether it had a filter I needed to clean (it doesn’t). While reading it, I discovered my flatware basket has holes to fit chopsticks. “If you want your appliances to last longer, clean them,” says Becky Rapinchuk, cleaning expert and blogger at Clean Mama. “It doesn’t take long and in some cases, you just push a button and let it roll.” We asked experts for ideas on the best ways to clean the major appliances in your home. Washing machine Many washing machines have cleaning or sanitising cycles. You can use vinegar or washing machine cleaner (made by a number of companies including Tide and OxiClean) in that cycle to refresh your machine. Or just use those products and run a regular hot-water cycle. “The internal parts of our appliances are often kind of disregarded or seem like they don’t need upkeep, but they do,” says Brendan Bosch, marketing director for Affresh, a washing machine cleaning tablet made by Whirlpool. Cleaning the interiors is especially important in high-efficiency machines, because they use less water than conventional washers, and excess detergent and clothing fibres can build up inside and cause odours. Jill Notini, a spokeswoman for the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers, says wiping down the gaskets with dish soap or vinegar is a good idea. She does not recommend bleach, because you might end up staining your clothes. Dryer If you’re not already emptying your lint trap after every load, vow to be better about it. Buildup will clog your dryer duct and, in extreme cases, could cause a fire. Meanwhile, if you haven’t had your vent cleaned recently (by you or a professional), do an inspection. Vacuum out any lint clogged in there that might be affecting your dryer’s performance. Rapinchuk pours a bit of white vinegar on a cloth and wipes down the seals on the door of her dryer frequently. You can also use that to wipe the inside of the drum. It’s nice to rinse your lint catcher under running water once in a while. Dishwasher “The machine that cleans your everyday forks and spoons needs attention,” says Brian Sansoni, spokesman for the American Cleaning Institute. “Yes, the utensils look clean, but you want the device to be clean inside also.” Dishwashers are not an appliance most of us think of cleaning. But models with stainless steel interiors in particular will look shiny and fresh if you wipe them down or use a dishwasher cleaning powder or tablet. Some newer models have removable mesh filters that can clog with pieces of food, especially if you’re not a big pre-rinser. Pop out the filter and rinse under warm running water or gently brush with a toothbrush. If you see mineral deposit buildup inside your dishwasher, put two cups of vinegar in a glass container on the bottom rack facing up and run a hot cycle, says Nathan Kryglowski, senior product marketing manager at KitchenAid. This way it splashes out throughout the cycle and doesn’t immediately rinse down the drain. If your spray arms pop off, check the water jets to see whether they may be clogged with minerals and rinse them off as well, Notini says. Refrigerator Wiping down refrigerator shelves with warm soapy water should be part of a regular cleaning routine. But taking everything out of your refrigerator and giving it a larger dose of TLC is a worthwhile spring chore. “We’ve found on surveys that people don’t clean refrigerators enough,” Sansoni says. “It’s especially important to scrub out the shelves where you keep your meats.” Pulling your refrigerator away from the wall and cleaning any debris or dust from the back of the unit and the floor is also important, Notini says. If there is a grill on the front of your refrigerator that can be removed, clean behind there and make sure air can freely flow through. Oven If your oven has a self-cleaning cycle on it, activate it on a warm spring day when you can leave windows and doors open to air out your house during the several hours that it’s cleaning itself. To remove that baked-on gunk from your removable metal stovetop burners, Rapinchuk says, run them through the dishwasher. Or you can soak them in hot soapy water and then scrub them with a paste of kosher salt, baking soda and dish soap. If you have a stainless steel stove top, Rapinchuck suggests wiping the surface using a sponge or a cloth dipped in warm soapy water and wrung out well. Avoid the gas burner holes. Notini says most ceramic stove tops can be cleaned with warm soapy water or a vinegar and baking soda paste. Check your manual for specifics.

In a world where far-flung destinations are easier to access than ever before, tourism is big business. Seeking a career filled with excitement and important challenges, Monash Arts grad Nikolaos Gkolfinopoulos decided to ride the global tourism wave while figuring out how to create a positive impact in the industry. After completing his Master of International Sustainable Tourism Management at Monash Arts, Nikos dove headfirst into game changing global tourism conversations as a Silk Road Project Specialist for the World Tourism Organisation. Read on to discover how Nikos aligned his studies with his passions through a postgraduate degree, and how his experiences at Monash Arts prepared him for a fulfilling future. How did your Master of International Sustainable Tourism Management (MISTM) inform and shape your career goals? Tourism fascinated me while studing my bachelor's degree in Economic Sciences in Thessaloniki, Greece. The potential of the tourism sector to engage stakeholders, generating benefits both economically and sociocultural, is immense. The knowledge gained through my Master’s highlighted to me how I want to contribute as a professional, helping me to develop my critical thinking and analytical skills. You've had a truly international study and career experience, with degrees from Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and Monash University, and work experience across Australia and Europe. How did Monash Arts support and nurture your global aspirations? Monash Arts gave me the opportunity to complete the International Development unit, gaining valuable insights on how development organisations work. Studying with Monash Arts gave me real-world experience – namely the international field trip to the Fiji Islands, where we explored how Polynesian developing destinations manage tourism growth and the opportunities that come with it. Throughout my Master’s I was motivated and inspired by the well-structured and challenging courses, as well as the exposure to the Australian and international environments eventually guiding me toward an international career. How have the skills and knowledge gained from your Masters helped you in your current role with the United Nations World Tourism Organisation? I joined UNWTO in 2016. I am the Silk Road Project Specialist within the Technical Cooperation and Silk Road Department. Our work focuses on assisting 34 Silk Road Member States to develop sustainable tourism based on the theme of Silk Road, incorporating the intangible and tangible heritage we encounter in each destination of the historic routes. I love the challenge of raising awareness of Silk Road, assisting governments and regions with their destination management plans and developing transnational and interregional tourism development strategies. At Monash I collaborated with people from different cultures, gaining valuable skills in learning how to understand and respect cultural differences, and troubleshooting solutions with inter-cultural related problems. I have found these experiences to useful in my current role where I operate in a multi-cultural environment on a daily basis. The Master of International Sustainable Tourism Management provided me with contemporary project planning and research skills necessary for me to succeed in my career. This course armed me with well-rounded knowledge, vital experience, and the right analytical skills so I could graduate job-ready. To achieve UNWTO's Silk Road Initiative vision, we work as a team to tackle ambitious objectives and deal with numerous complexities presented on a daily basis. It is undoubtedly fulfilling to witness the positive impact our work has on the Silk Road Member States’ economies, ensuring a better future for local communities.
