Check out our review of the CyberPower Zeus Mini gaming PC.

Perhaps popularized by the introduction of the Steam Machine, it seems as if small form factor PCs are gaining more and more traction as of late. Now, CyberPower is the latest PC maker to introduce a new batch of dwarfish computers. This new line is dubbed the Zeus Mini.

 With the case measuring 13 x 17.4 x 4.4-inches, the Zeus Mini is a far cry from the behemoth gaming PCs you’re likely accustomed to. That doesn’t mean that the CyberPower Zeus Mini doesn’t pack a punch on the inside though.

Don’t be concerned about pricing though. You don’t need a god-like bank account in order to get your hands on CyberPower’s latest creation.  For instance, the Zeus Mini starts at $599 and include and AMD A10-7850K processor, 8GB of RAM, a 500GB 7,200 rpm hard drive, an 8x DVD burner, Windows 8.1 and more. Meanwhile, the top level default config is priced at $1,479 and wields a beefy Intel Core i7-4770K processor, 16GB of RAM, a spacious 2TB 7,200 rpm hard drive, an Nvidia GeForce GTX 780 graphics card with 3GB of RAM and Windows 8.1. 

In all, there are eight Zeus Mini default configurations, and all of them are highly customizable, giving you the ability to raise the price of your Zeus Mini to epic proportions. As for the availability, the Zeus Mini can be had right now.

4 CPUs you should buy instead of the Ryzen 7 7800X3D
AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D sitting on a motherboard.

The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is one of the best gaming processors you can buy, and it's easy to see why. It's easily the fastest gaming CPU on the market, it's reasonably priced, and it's available on a platform that AMD says it will support for several years. But it's not the right chip for everyone.

Although the Ryzen 7 7800X3D ticks all the right boxes, there are several alternatives available. Some are cheaper while still offering great performance, while others are more powerful in applications outside of gaming. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is a great CPU, but if you want to do a little more shopping, these are the other processors you should consider.

Even the new mid-tier Snapdragon X Plus beats Apple’s M3

You might have already heard of the Snapdragon X Elite, the upcoming chips from Qualcomm that everyone's excited about. They're not out yet, but Qualcomm is already announcing another configuration to live alongside it: the Snapdragon X Plus.

The Snapdragon X Plus is pretty similar to the flagship Snapdragon X Elite in terms of everyday performance but, as a new chip tier, aims to bring AI capabilities to a wider portfolio of ARM-powered laptops. To be clear, though, this one is a step down from the flagship Snapdragon X Elite, in the same way that an Intel Core Ultra 7 is a step down from Core Ultra 9.

Gigabyte just confirmed AMD’s Ryzen 9000 CPUs

Gigabyte spoiled AMD's surprise a bit by confirming the company's next-gen CPUs. In a press release announcing a new BIOS for X670, B650, and A620 motherboards, Gigabyte not only confirmed that support has been added for next-gen AMD CPUs, but specifically referred to them as "AMD Ryzen 9000 series processors."

We've already seen MSI and Asus add support for next-gen AMD CPUs through BIOS updates, but neither of them called the CPUs Ryzen 9000. They didn't put out a dedicated press release for the updates, either. It should go without saying, but we don't often see a press release for new BIOS versions, suggesting Gigabyte wanted to make a splash with its support.
