As more PC builders use AIO liquid coolers, you start to see many options on the market come down in price. Believe me; the market is saturated with AIO coolers from various brands. As always, my goal with Weekending Deals Weekly is to find the best reasonably priced gadget and hardware. The ID-Cooling ZOOM Flow is my pick for this week's weekend deal.
The editor's pick of the week? The Asus TUF GeForce RTX 3060 (Demonslayer Edition) graphics card. This is a great choice, considering several graphics cards on the market are still expensive. Have you seen the price of the RTX 4080? Rather pricey.
Once again, we have a collaborative effort from Noctau and Asus that entails a custom cooling fan on a graphic card, the GeForce RTX 4080.

A few weeks ago ( give a take), we reported Nividas driver number 531.18 caused a CPU spike erratically once the user exited games. Well, we are happy to report Nvidia has solved that issue. The company has begun releasing the new ' Game Ready' GPU driver, version 531.29 WHQL,
You wouldn't expect storage devices to be trendy news, but when you have a 168TB PCIe add-in card make its way to the market, it deserves attention.

This equates to 8TB M. 2 2280 sticks and provides impressive transfer speeds of up to 31GB/s.
Corsair has become the official memory used in my PC builds; from my experience alone, the RAM is one of the best in the market regarding overall performance and stability. So when the company unveiled its 192GB ( 4x 48GB) memory kit, it got attention from each pundit, such as myself. The memory kit retails for $749.99. In addition, Corsair also launched a high-speed DDR5-7000 C 40 48GB (2x24GB) kit for $284.99.
The point of updating hardware drivers is to improve the performance of that particular hardware. Unfortunately, in some cases, specific driver versions can be a detrimental problem. This leads us to Nvidia's latest dilemma, their latest driver, version 531.18, has a severe bug that causes high CPU usage after users have exited games. However, Nvidia has admitted that there is a problem; there will undoubtedly be an issued hotfix that will come in the next driver update.
When I say odd, I don't disparage the Jiushark Diamond JF13K CPU cooler. It's just that this is my first time seeing a top-down cooler.

After years of mass outcry, Google has finally implemented a memory and energy saver feature into its world's most popular web browser. As you know, Google's web browser, Chrome, is inefficient in using memory—an ongoing issue for years. So in December, Alphabet Inc, Google's subsidiary, announced they would emphasize memory savings and reduce the amount of energy used for the web browser. Well, it seems Google has kept its word.
WhatsApp is rolling out updates to its iOS variants; new features will include picture-in-picture mode for video calls. The new feature will allow users to multitask with other apps during video calls without interruption.

This Lenovo 2022 IdeaPad 3 is ideal for a student on a budget. Currently, there are only five left on Amazon. Purchase while supplies last.
