Processors
Intel Core Ultra Series 3 (Panther Lake)
While we don’t know what a Panther Lake is, we do know that is a cool name. Intel showed off their long awaited Core Ultra Series 3. These new Panther Lake based chips are built off the 18A process, and boy does this new silicon impress, especially with their iGPU performance.
Both the Core Ultra X9 388H and Core Ultra X7 368H both sport the new suped up B390 iGPU. This built in GPU has 12 Xe3 cores with dedicated ray tracing hardware. Moving over to the Core Ultra 5 338H gets a different iGPU, with the B370. This is a slightly weaker variant with 10 Xe3 cores.
Besides just being an all-around fast and efficient processor, the iGPU sports some impressive performance, opening up the year for some kick-ass handheld gaming PCs. Who knows, if the performance is as good as it looks, we may need to make our own Cyber-deck.
AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D
Gamers love AMD’s Ryzen 7 9800X3D. It’s fast, offers best in class gaming performance, and is one of AMD’s most successful processors in recent memory. The insane gaming performance is in no short part thanks to AMD’s 3D V-Cache technology that layers in copious amounts of fast cache on the chip to support the fastest frame rates your GPU can pump out.
With the AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D, we are getting a high-clocked variant of the 9800X3D that is aiming to deliver even better performance than the already beloved base model. So, the 9850X3D is shaping up to wear the crown as the new world’s fastest gaming processor.
Specs wise, the Ryzen 7 9850X3D is sporting 8 “Zen 5” cores and 16 threads with a base clock speed of 4.7 Ghz and a max boost clock of up to 5.6 Ghz. This is complimented by a generous helping of 96 MB of L3 cache.
The increase in clock speed makes the 9850X3D about 8% faster than the base 9800X3D.
We can confirm we will have the AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D available in our gaming PCs at launch. But AMD has not disclosed the exact release date, so stay tuned for an announcement from us!

NVIDIA Announces Improved DLSS 4.5
Back at CES 2025, NVIDIA introduced gamers to DLSS 4, which has since set the standard for AI rendering with Super Resolution and Frame Generation delivering crisp visuals and fast frame rates in supported titles.
This year, NVIDIA showed off DLSS 4.5, which introduces Dynamic Multi Frame Generation and 6X Multi Frame Generation mode. Combined, NVIDIA says DLSS 4.5 can generate up to five additional generated frames per traditionally rendered frame, dynamically boosting your performance to meet your monitor’s refresh rate. 240+ FPS gaming with path tracing enabled is possible now on RTX 50 Series GPUs.
All RTX owners (20xx, 30xx, 40xx, 50xx) can upgrade games to use DLSS 4.5 Super Resolution by installing the latest NVIDIA drivers available on the NVIDIA app.
In Spring, 50 Series owners will be able to start using Dynamic Multi Frame Generation and 6X multi frame generation. So if you have a 50 series GPU, make sure to make use of this insane performance boost when it launches this spring. Don’t have a 50 series GPU? We got you covered. Check out our selection of 50 series gaming PCs, all ready to have you experience the full performance boosting power of DLSS 4.5.
Check out NVIDIA’s video detailing how DLSS 4.5 delivers incredible visuals and gaming performance.
Stay tuned for more on upcoming hardware, games, and news for 2026!
