The Quarry PC preview
I’ve been checking out a preview of Supermassive Games’ upcoming game, The Quarry.

Corsair 32GB Vengeance 5200MHz DDR5 DRAM kit review
With Intel’s 12th-generation Alder Lake CPUs and AMD’s upcoming Ryzen 7000 CPUs both supporting DDR5, soon users will need to make the jump to the new desktop memory standard. But right now, at least with Intel’s Z690 chipset, which can support motherboards configured for DDR4 or DDR5 (but not both), it’s still a matter of personal choice.
