BenQ's XL2730Z 'FreeSync' monitor reviewed
I get a little bit too excited about monitors these days, to be honest. The market for desktop PC displays has traditionally been sleepy and slow-moving, but things have changed in the past year or so. Pixel densities and display quality are up generally, and the prices for big LCD panels have been dropping at the same time. Yet in our latest TR Hardware Survey, over two thirds of our readers are rocking a main desktop monitor resolution of 1920x1200 or lower. The time has come for an awful lot of folks to consider an upgrade.
That said, perhaps the single biggest reason for PC gamers to consider upgrading their displays isn't size, pixel count, or contrast ratio. Nope, it's variable refresh technology. You may have already heard us wax poetic about the smooth animation made possible by Nvidia's G-Sync. AMD has been promising to release a competing ...

Skylake reference design spotted in Shenzhen
Intel CEO Brian Krzanich confirmed in February that the Core M processor is getting a Skylake refresh in the second half of the year. Other Skylake chips are rumored for later in the year, as well, and a reference system made the rounds at the Intel Developer Forum in Shenzhen, China last week. MobileGeeks got its hands on the convertible tablet, which is laced with the latest technologies in addition to an intriguing secondary display.
Most of the action goes down on a 2560x1440 touchscreen, but the tablet also has a small e-ink display on the back. This secondary screen can be used to display photos, text, and other content. Although the e-ink sidekick ...
