Microsoft confirms you can now pause Windows 11 updates for as long as you want, no more "forced" reboots

@Marlayna29 Double it

No man can do this 😭

@pavandavuluri Hopefully our feedback is heard loud and clear in the future also. And hopefully less AI slop.

The team and I have spent the past several months analyzing feedback from the community. What came through was the voice of people who care deeply about Windows and want it to be better. Read this blog post to learn more about what we're doing in response as we look to raise the bar on Windows 11 quality. Please keep the feedback coming, to help us shape the future of Windows together. blogs.windows.com/windows-inside…

Linus Tech Tips has called out YouTube for adding 30-second unskippable ads to its TV app "When will it be enough? Are we just going to go all the way back to cable TV with three-minute ad breaks? Can we not?"

@charlieINTEL Every bullet matters now, more pro friendly than noob friendly tbf.

Counter Strike 2 has completely changed its gun reload system so players now drop unused ammo Reloading swaps magazines and discards whatever bullets were left

original Xbox startup intro (2001)

i swear i’ve seen this place before

@mttywayne15 @shaunjohn74 @hamsolo05gaming @MrboomstickXL I know its being added for Xbox aswell. But i never heard any outrage from news sites about that like charlieintel, kotaku and others 🤔 i find it kinda hilarious

@Dufmaan @shaunjohn74 @hamsolo05gaming @MrboomstickXL They did talk about this. Fanboys used it to go at ps gamers, and then a few weeks later Xbox announced an ai assistance being added to games as well. Weird how you only mentioned it being added for ps though... 🤔

Xbox: Why is there an ethernet cord. Xbox 360: Who needs party chat and Achievements. Xbox One: Digital games and the kinnect are stupid. Xbox Series S/X: Quick resume, Play Anywhere, and smart delivery are pointless. Xbox Helix: Nobody wants access to pc and console simultaneously. Me: Lol, these features are dope, just admit you don't like Xbox and move on bro!

@shaunjohn74 @hamsolo05gaming @MrboomstickXL Oh for sure and Sony has also patented a "ghost assistance" AI system. Nobody talks about that btw.

@hamsolo05gaming @MrboomstickXL Microsoft gets ahead of the curb and everyone hates them for it. It’s so odd. Yet Kratos Inc and Mario Co can do no wrong in any decision made. It’s almost reached hilarity at this point.

Alright, if we look at the FULL leaked specs side-by-side, the gap becomes clearer. I'll break it down using the specs reported in leaks. Full spec comparison (leaks) Xbox “Magnus” APU GPU: 68 RDNA 5 CUs CPU: up to 3 Zen 6 + 8 Zen 6c cores Memory: 192-bit GDDR7 RAM capacity: up to 48 GB Cache: at least 24 MB L2 GPU cache AI/NPU: up to 110 TOPS Die size: about 408 mm² total (chiplet) Power: ~250–350W estimated PlayStation 6 “Orion” APU GPU: about 52–54 RDNA 5 CUs CPU: 8 Zen 6c cores + 2 low-power OS cores Memory: 160-bit GDDR7 RAM capacity: about 30–40 GB Power: about 160W TDP Die size: ~280 mm² monolithic Hardware advantage breakdown GPU size Xbox 68 CUs PS6 ~54 CUs Difference ~26% more compute units for Xbox Memory bandwidth Xbox 192-bit GDDR7 PS6 160-bit GDDR7 Difference ~20% wider memory bus RAM capacity Xbox up to 48 GB PS6 30–40 GB Difference more memory headroom for Xbox Chip size Xbox 408 mm² PS6 280 mm² Difference Xbox chip is ~45% larger, which usually means more GPU area and performance. Realistic performance gap Based on the specs: PS6 estimated GPU ~35–40 TF Xbox Magnus estimated GPU ~45–52 TF Gap ~25–40% That lines up with leaks saying Xbox could be about 25% stronger overall. Compare that to current generation Console GPU TF Difference PS5 10.3 TF Series X 12 TF ~17% Next gen rumor: Console GPU TF PS6 ~35–40 Xbox Magnus ~45–52 Difference ~25–40% So the rumored next-gen gap is bigger than Series X vs PS5. But the important thing Even if Xbox is stronger: What will matter more is Ray tracing hardware AI upscaling cache design developer optimization Those can shrink real-world differences just like this generation. 💡 One thing I noticed looking at the specs The memory bus difference (192-bit vs 160-bit) might actually be the biggest real-world advantage for Xbox, not the TFLOPs.

Nvidia, AMD, and Intel back Microsoft's plan to fix shader compilation stutter Nvidia announced support for Microsoft's new Advanced Shader Delivery technology. The feature, designed to address shader compilation stutter in PC games, will arrive on RTX graphics cards later this year.

Microsoft is reportedly working on official Xbox and Xbox 360 emulation for Windows, potentially arriving in November as part of the 25th anniversary celebrations. This could let your digital library run natively on PC through the Xbox app.

@charlieINTEL Sony has also patented a "ghost assistance" AI system, widely reported in early 2026, designed to act as an in-game helper to assist players who get stuck in challenging parts of a game.

Xbox says its Gaming Copilot AI companion is being added to Xbox consoles later this year It'll let users ask guide-like questions about games

Dust 2 will never be the same 💔💔

It was great to share the first details about Project Helix and the future of Xbox this morning at GDC. Thank you to everyone who attended and to the thousands of developers across the globe building games for Xbox. Check out more details here: news.xbox.com/en-us/2026/03/…

Project Helix finally gives us a real look at Microsoft’s next‑gen Xbox plans. A custom AMD chip at the center and new FSR Diamond tech aimed at boosting image clarity for everyone. It feels like the first time in a while that Xbox hardware momentum is back, but will it be enough? DETAILS👇 windowscentral.com/gaming/xbox/mi…
