  1. Assembled PCs are widely favoured by users, primarily due to their affordability. Purchasing individual components and building a PC often proves more cost-effective than buying a pre-built or branded PC. However, not everyone possesses the technical skills or the inclination to undertake this process. Building a PC can also be highly time-consuming, and complications may arise, leaving you without adequate support. This is where brands such as CyberPowerPC come in, offering users powerful pre-built machines that strike a balance between fully custom-built and branded PCs. However, is it better to buy a pre-built PC, especially from CyberPowerPC? To answer this question, we got our hands on the CyberPowerPC Game Master 715 to see how it stacks up. CyberPowerPC Game Master 715 Components and Price Before I talk about build quality, design, upgradeability, ease of repair, and performance, let me list down the components available on this particular pre-built system. The Game Master 715 will set you back by Rs. 1,79,472 and is currently available to buy on CyberPowerPCs India website. CyberPowerPC will also send you the Elite M1 131 wired RGB gaming mouse with 9 buttons along with your purchase. And of course, these pre-built PCs don't come with a monitor, keyboard, and a backup UPS. With a good monitor and keyboard included, this build should touch the Rs. 2 lakh mark. Gaming PCs go all out when it comes to design, but I'm someone who likes a minimalist look. The Game Master 715 has a minimal design until you turn it on.

  2. Google really wants you to know that Gemini 2.0 Flash is a big deal. It's the first generally released member of the Gemini 2.0 family, and the company is hyping it up as faster, smarter, and more powerful than ever, hinting without outright claiming it should replace OpenAI’s ChatGPT in people's hearts and smartphones. Gemini 2.0 Flash is essentially a high-efficiency version of the model that is faster but supposedly maintains as good an accuracy rate. I decided to play around with Gemini's new model, testing it out in some basic ways the average person would use it. To spice things up, I sent the same prompts to ChatGPT. I started with a prompt about fitness as it's the kind of thing a lot of people turn to the internet to help with. I think a good AI chatbot should not only suggest a reasonable workout routine but also explain the reasons for its suggestions, variations on the exercise, and more information about how to be healthy and avoid injury. I wanted to see which chatbot would provide the most well-rounded response, but both honestly did quite well. Gemini included links and tips for its workout, while ChatGPT had a whole weekly schedule for workouts and its own set of helpful advice on getting in shape safely. I had to call it a tie, though the multi-day schedule from ChatGPT did stand out somewhat. For the final test, I used logic, word association, vocabulary, and pattern recognition. In other words, a crossword puzzle. Any AI chatbot should be able to quickly identify words that match letter patterns and match the definition. Gemini Flash matches ChatGPT Both Gemini 2.0 Flash and ChatGPT offer incredibly advanced AI models, and for most users, the difference comes down to preferences, ecosystem, and specific use cases rather than raw ability. Any clear technological edge that might have existed a year ago has essentially closed for the average person. Even 'personality' differences are likely due to the prompts used as much as any underlying programming. If you primarily operate in Google's ecosystem, Gemini 2.0 Flash has obvious appeal. Its integration with Google Search, Google Docs, Gmail, and other Google services makes great for anyone who relies on these tools daily. You can use it to draft emails, summarize documents, and even assist with research, all within the Google suite. If speed and efficiency are priorities, Gemini is there for you. On the other hand, ChatGPT is well-established and has deep partnerships. In particular, ChatGPT is embedded throughout Microsoft Office tools like Word and Excel. ChatGPT is often more conversational and expressive in my experience, though again, that is likely contingent on the prompts used. At the core, both models have reached a level where their intelligence feels equally matched. There’s no longer a clear “better” option. You have to decide which AI fits more seamlessly into your daily life. Google and OpenAI are in an ongoing race, constantly refining their models and adding new capabilities. Gemini might take the lead in one update, only for ChatGPT to counter with an even stronger feature. There’s no wrong answer or best option. Whether you choose Gemini 2.0 Flash or ChatGPT, you’re getting one of the best AI models ever built. You just have to decide who you want to translate your Klingon for you.

  3. A Heise investigation of used Seagate data center-grade hard drives that are being sold as new has suggested that the drives originated from Chinese cryptocurrency mining farms that used them to mine Chia several years ago. Notably, this finding does not disprove Seagate's assertion that the fraudulent HDDs were obtained from channels that did not buy from official distributors. The investigation suggests the used HDDs originated in China, likely from cryptocurrency mining farms that previously mined Chia. During Chia's peak, HDD demand surged, leading to shortages and price hikes. However, the economic payoff for Chia mining declined over time, leading to many farms shutting down and flooding the market with second-hand drives. According to the report, these drives — many with 15,000 to 50,000 hours of prior use — had their internal records altered to appear unused. Seagate denies involvement; it has launched an investigation and now offers a tool to determine whether HDDs are shiny new or used (more on that later). Over 200 reports of affected HDDs have surfaced worldwide, including cases in Europe, Australia, Thailand, and Japan. The fraudulent sales were first reported in January when it was discovered that supposedly new Seagate Exos datacenter-grade HDDs had been used for thousands of hours. The affected retailers have responded differently to the scandal. Alternate claims neither the store nor its German suppliers knew the drives were not new, but it suggests customers contact the store if they discover their 'new' drives have been used. Galaxus has set up an online help page, while Proshop allows free returns and replacements. Some sellers state that warranty laws apply, while Wortmann has insisted on checking the HDDs before offering compensation. Seagate has distanced itself from the issue, insisting it only distributes genuine new drives. It announced a full-scale investigation and has urged affected buyers to report fraud cases directly via fraud@seagate.com. The company believes the used drives were resold as new somewhere in the secondary market before reaching customers. Anton Shilov is a contributing writer at Tom’s Hardware.

  4. Marvel Rivals has reached that tier of po[CENSORED]rity where it has multiple dedicated leakers on social media, working together to datamine and share new information found in the game's files. In the case of Marvel Rivals that information is mostly about the increasingly horny skins being released for all the women characters, but occasionally there's a hint of something more interesting. Last month, both @RivalsLeaks and @RivalsInfo suggested a PvE mode was in-development, which one leaker based on information from "a source" and the other from a tag in the game's files. More concrete information has recently come from @RivalsInfo and @X0X_LEAK, who shared video of a giant squid creature believed to be a boss from a mode called "Infinity Crisis". That kraken-adjacent beast could be Monstro, the Menace from the Murky Depths, an octopus mutated by radiation who first appeared in Tales of Suspense. Or it could be one of any number of tentacled sea monsters who've shown up in Marvel comics over the years, whether being wrestled by Conan's comic-book incarnation, or traveling from the Ultimate Spider-Man's "pirate reality" to menace Aunt May and Web-Beard—the pirate version of Spider-Man—a thing that actually happened in the Ultimate Spider-Man TV show. Since the model from the leaked video seems to be a placeholder asset, it's tough to say what form it'll take when or if it makes it into Marvel Rivals. But if Marvel Rivals does get a PvE mode, that sure would give its fans another nice stick to beat Overwatch with, since the cancelation of Overwatch 2's PvE mode still stings.
