There are two things in the PC building process you can't ever trust. First is the I/O shield fitting in on the first try, and the second is the BIOS settings your PC ships with. Luckily, you can fix both with a little bit of tweaking, tinkering and less than ten odd minutes of your time.

Whenever I run into Wi-Fi issues, I follow a familiar, frustrating routine: staring at a spinning loading icon, resetting my router for the third time in an hour, and contacting my ISP’s customer support line. I was convinced I was being throttled, overcharged, or simply ignored.

If you're looking for a Windows computing device that's compact, powerful, and versatile — the Asus ProArt PZ13 is going to be for you. We got some hands on time with this model, and for the most part, we were pretty happy with what it offered.

Well, it's official; we've finally gotten to the point where we can just have an LLM dawdle around and do its own thing for our amusement. Granted, watching an LLM make something can be really therapeutic, especially when you're making something yourself. It makes for a nice body-doubling companion you can always rely on.

As the very device that got me into single-board computers, DIY projects, and (to some extent) the Linux ecosystem, the Raspberry Pi holds a special place in my heart. I’ve written dozens of articles centered around my Raspberry Pi 5 and Zero boards here on XDA, and even though I went down the home lab route a few years ago, I still use my pint-sized companions a lot in my tinkering adventures.

Repurposing old PC components is always recommended, but sometimes, you can't figure out anything useful for hardware you're no longer actively using. That's what happened with my 250GB SATA SSD when I switched to NVMe storage years ago. The SATA drive was the first SSD I had ever used, and it transformed my PC experience. After the move to NVMe, though, the SATA SSD remained unused for years. Windows 10 was my primary OS, but when I needed to install Windows 11 for work, I finally found a good use for the SATA SSD. It was just large enough for a Windows partition, plus it saved me the hassle of dual-booting Windows 10 and 11. Additionally, the old drive was perfect as a testing ground for stuff I didn't want running on my primary NVMe SSD. I could also use the SATA SSD as an external or recovery SSD in the future, provided it remains healthy enough.
