I hate to state the obvious, but it needs to be said. Keyboards are important. In fact, I’d argue they’re the most important peripheral of them all, as they allow us to communicate with our computers. Whether you’re working or gaming, chances are you spend a great deal of time typing on a keyboard.

Intel’s 12th-gen “Alder Lake” CPUs have largely put the company back in the pole position when it comes to the best desktop CPUs.

That’s exactly why XSplit Presenter Premium has grown so popular. And now’s a great time to get it since a lifetime subscription, which normally costs $200, is discounted by 70 percent. XSplit […] https://www.pcworld.com/article/557397/engage-your-video-conferencing-audience-with-xsplit-prese
School teachers know it. So do paramedics. Surgeons know all about it. Some jobs just don’t come with a chair for sitting down. For careers that force people to remain on their feet most of the day, it can lead to some achy dogs by the end of a punishing eight-hour (or more) shift. While […] https://www.pcworld.com/article/553175/this-massager-bathes-your-lower-leg-in-comfort-right-now-amazon-shoppers-can-save-50.html
Looking for a drone that’s big on features but small on price? Then look no further than the Fader Stealth Drone from TRNDLabs.

Microsoft is testing a feature for the Xbox app for the PC that evaluates how a game will play on a given PC. It has the potential to eliminate confusion about whether to even download a game or not. The new feature isn’t available to all PCs. You’ll need to be a member of the […] https://www.pcworld.com/article/557693/xbox-app-beta-tells-you-if-a-game-will-run-great-on-your-pc.html
It’s only been a few days since Nvidia tacitly confirmed the existence of a new version of the RTX 2060 graphics card, first released almost three years ago but coming back with boosted video RAM to help with the current shortage of GPU hardware. Unfortunately it looks like this re-release is going to omit the […] https://www.pcworld.com/article/557625/that-new-rtx-2060-card-might-not-be-such-a-bargain-after-all.html

NordVPN is one of the best VPNs out there, but one of its biggest downsides is that it’s so darn expensive. That’s not the case today. The VPN is selling a two-year subscription for $79.

It also works out to about $3.30 per month, which is fantastic considering […] https://www.pcworld.com/article/557597/get-two-years-of-nordvpn-for-a-ridiculous-79.html
We’re well into the Norton 360 era now where the company’s storied antivirus services combine with identify theft protection from LifeLock. Despite the changes behind the scenes, the front-facing product hasn’t changed that much. The basic Norton security interface has looked pretty much the same since 2015 save for some cosmetic touch-ups to keep it […] https://www.pcworld.com/article/393283/norton-360-deluxe-antivirus-review.html
