With skyrocketing memory prices, If you want to build a $80 gaming PC I'd suggest picking up a BC-250 with a D220P PSU It's an AMD 6 core APU with 16GB of GDDR6 & RX 6600 that you can install Bazzite or Linux *Just make sure you flash & set the bios to dynamic 512mb vid memory

Microsoft's hidden Windows 11 trick makes apps launch 70% faster. I tested it on a low-end PC, and early results are promising. Right now, when you click Start, open File Explorer, launch Edge, or right-click for a context menu, and there’s often that tiny micro-stutter before anything happens. Microsoft is now testing a feature called Low Latency Profile. Once turned on, and you do a high-priority action, Windows 11 briefly pushes the CPU to max frequency for 1–3 seconds, finishes the task faster, then drops back down. In my testing on a constrained VM with just 2 cores and 4GB RAM, the difference was obvious. Edge, Outlook, Copilot, and the Start menu opened much faster. CPU usage spiked to around 96–97%, but only for a few seconds. For high-end PCs, the difference may be small. But for budget laptops and low-end Windows 11 machines, this could be a real game-changer.



Adrenalin 26.5.1 is now available. That took some time, AMD didn't release any driver in April (except another big Preview driver for AgilitySDK). So... big news? Apparently no, just the usual batch of new supported games or game-specific bugfixes. Some curious items though. 🧵
