Logitech has just revealed its newest mechanical gaming keyboard, dubbed the G910 Orion Spark.

What makes this keyboard stand out is its mechanical switches which, the company claims, are much faster than any switches offered in any other mechanical keyboards. The Romer-G switches in the G910 register your keystrokes “up to 25 percent faster” compared to other mechanical switches, Logitech says. This, if accurate, translates to increased responsiveness.

These switches “can’t be found on any other keyboard,” according to Logitech.

The company also claims that the keys are durable for up to 70 million keyboards, which is an increase of up to 40 percent compared to similar keyboards that are currently available. This claims significantly surpasses that of competitors like Razer’s Blackwidow mechanical gaming keyboard. For example, Razer says that the Blackwidow’s keys can sustain up to 60 million strokes.

Most gaming keyboards feature some sort of back-lighting, but the G910 tries to set itself apart from the crowd by allowing you to adjust the lighting of every key individually, with support for 16.8 million colors.

The Logitech G910 Orion Spark wears nine programmable keys, and up to three different user profiles. This means that you can assign up to 27 different commands to these keys, which you set up using Logitech’s Gaming Software app.

Plus, the G910 is supported by a companion mobile app which you can use to deliver in-game data, PC performance stats, and more to yourself. You can use a pull-out tray that’s built into the keyboard to prop up your Android or iOS device, putting it in plain view, making it easy for you to consume that data.

The Logitech G910 Orion Spark will be available starting sometime this November for $179.99, and includes a two-year limited warranty.

Best Chromebook deals: Cheap computers starting at $54

If you want to grab yourself a Windows laptop but feel that the prices are pretty high, especially when it comes to the best laptops on the market, you may want to consider going for a Chromebook instead. That's because ChromeOS tends to be a lot more lightweight than Windows, so the specs you have can go a much longer way, and even the best Chromebooks don't cost as much as the best Windows laptops. Even better, you can still get some great Chromebook deals, which is why we went out and collected our favorites below, although if you'd still like to go with a laptop, these laptop deals are a good option too.
HP Chromebook 11A G6 Education Edition -- $46, was $244

Probably one of the cheapest options you're going to find for a Chromebook is this education edition that's made to be as basic as possible to bring the price down. The processor is a very entry-level AMD A4 9120C which is just about enough to get productivity tasks completely, and probably can't handle more complex tasks. The 4 GB of RAM isn't a lot either, but at least with ChromeOS not being as demanding resource-wise, you shouldn't feel it as much as you would on a Windows device. The biggest downside is the 16GB SSD, which means you will almost certainly have to rely on one of these external hard drive deals.

I would give up my Steam Deck if the ROG Ally 2 had these features
Lies of P running on the Asus ROG Ally.

Last year, I wrote about how I went back to my Steam Deck after using the ROG Ally for several months. Asus' device is a real competitor (read our Asus ROG Ally review to learn why), but there are a handful of aspects of the Steam Deck that make it the right handheld for me. That could change with the ROG Ally 2, however.

Rumor has it that Asus is gearing up to release an updated version of the ROG Ally for 2024. Even if this isn't an entirely new handheld, it's hard to imagine Asus will exit the world of handheld gaming PCs any time soon. And if it makes a few key changes to the next iteration of the ROG Ally, I might finally retire my Steam Deck for good.

Whether you have the best gaming desktop money can buy or a budget-oriented PC, the whole point of it all is to be able to play your favorite games and make them look nice and run great. Not every gamer cares about visuals, but performance matters, and getting your money's worth out of your PC is important, too.

If a PC performs poorly in games, many of us immediately assume that the hardware is to blame. Sure, that can often be the case, but before you start looking into ways to upgrade your computer, try out these solutions that might solve your problem and let you get back to high-quality gaming.
PC settings
Whether you're dealing with poor performance, such as stuttering and low frames per second (fps), or you're simply unhappy with how your games look, the root of the problem might lie in the settings of your PC -- and as such, it could be an easy fix.
