For one of the best 3D printer deals, head straight to Amazon. As one of its limited time deals, you can buy the Anycubic 12K Resin Photon Mono M5s 3D printer for $300 reduced from $480. It’s nice to see a 38% discount on a printer from a reputable brand. As it’s a limited time deal, you’ll need to be quick to avoid missing out. Here’s everything you need to know before you buy.

Why you should buy the Anycubic 12K Resin Photon Mono M5s 3D printer

Sure to appeal to anyone looking for one of the best 3D printers under $500, the Anycubic 12K Resin Photon Mono M5s 3D printer is a great bet for anyone checking out 3D printing. It’s the first consumer grade resin 3D printer without levelling. While printing, a mechanical sensor on its cantilever arm detects the alignment between the printing platform and the floating levelling module before automatically adjusting as needed.

It has an HD resolution of 11520 x 5120 and a high contrast ratio of 480:1, so you get an XY accuracy of 19 x 24 micro, leading to highly precise results. Combined with Anycubic high-speed resin, the Anycubic 12K Resin Photon Mono M5s 3D printer is able to reach an average speed of 105mm an hour. Alongside those core figures, the Anycubic 12K Resin Photon Mono M5s 3D printer also has a 10.1-inch 12K LCD screen. You can check the exposure screen, mechanical detection module, motor operation status, and resin allowance before printing. There’s also an Intelligent Mode which matches exposure parameters based on model details and size, with the new support algorithm enhancing the printing stability and success rate.

With so many convenient features, the Anycubic 12K Resin Photon Mono M5s 3D printer is sure to be one of the best 3D printers for many scenarios. It usually costs $480, but as one of Amazon’s limited time deals it’s down to $300 for a brief time right now. The 38% saving of $180 won’t be around for long, so take a look at it quickly before you miss out.

AMD CPUs should support CUDIMM memory soon, but not this generation
Official product render of the G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo memory for AMD.

AMD processors can't make full use of CUDIMM memory just yet, but it may well do before the end of this socket. In a recent interview with DigitalTrends, AMD's product management lead for gaming and workstations, Sourabh Dhir, told us that there was no reason that AM5 couldn't support CUDIMM, but wouldn't be draw on a timeline of when we might see it.

Considering we expect AM5 to be AMD's flagship CPU socket for the next couple of generations at least, that probably means we don't have long to wait for the added memory speed support.

Asus’ new RTX 5090 might be the most ridiculous GPU ever, and it costs $10,000
RTX 5090 Dhahab Edition.

It's no news that Nvidia makes some of the best graphics cards, and Asus is one of its most prominent partners. However, this time the company truly took things to the next level by launching an RTX 5090 that just might be the most ridiculous GPU I've ever seen. Prices range from $7,000 to over $10,500, and there's a good reason for that ... kind of.

The unique Asus ROG Astral RTX 5090 "Dhahab Edition" draws inspiration from the Middle East. In the announcement, Asus says that the card blends modern technology and cultural heritage, reflecting the rapid growth of the Middle East."

The MSI Claw 8 AI+ Polar Tempest model first launched in April before being removed from MSI's website, but has now returned with a dedicated product listing and a July 15 release date for the United States. This powerful handheld leaves the Steam Deck in the dust in most regards, but has been notably hard to purchase due to high demand and a limited initial production run.

The latest run of the Polar Tempest Edition comes with 2TB of storage and is priced at $999, versus the original Sandstorm model with 1TB of storage and an $899 price tag. In addition to a US release, fans have spotted listings in Germany, which suggest Europe will also get another release this summer. The only other difference is the white front panels (hence the Polar moniker).
