Where to buy Nvidia’s RTX 3080 graphics card tonight or tomorrow

Sony's PlayStation 5 opened pre-orders today, and it's an utter fiasco so far — there was no communication about when, where, or how to get one without competing with scalpers. But perhaps we can help you get your hands on Nvidia's new RTX 3080 graphics card, a GPU that finally powers 4K 60fps gaming or better for $700?

Truth be told, we don't know when precisely these orders will begin, but it should be sometime between now and the end of day tomorrow, since September 17th is launch day.

But we do know where you might want to look: Amazon, Best Buy, and Newegg all have dedicated landing pages that list all the cards they plan to sell — though do note that they're mostly third-party designs from the likes of EVGA, MSI, and Gigabyte,...

PS5 will be ‘99 percent’ backward compatible with PS4 games

Sony revealed the PlayStation 5's price and release date ($399 for the all-digital version, and $499 for the one with a disc drive, both out on November 12th), as well as the company's six launch titles that will be available at release. That's not a huge lineup, and you might be wondering if you can play some of your PS4 collection on your new PS5 as more games become available — and fortunately, it seems like there's a good chance you will.

The new console is "99 percent" backward compatible with the PS4 games the company has tested on it so far, Sony PlayStation boss Jim Ryan said in an interview with The Washington Post. In March, Sony said it believed the "overwhelming majority" of PS4 games would be backward compatible with the...

PS5 pre-orders began a day early, and so far they’re a mess

Posted: 16 Sep 2020 05:43 PM PDT

Sony ended its presentation today with the long-awaited price and release date for the PS5 — but stopped short of telling gamers when and where to buy one, until a tweet seemed to make things clearer: pre-orders would begin tomorrow on September 17th. Or so it seemed for an hour or two. Now, it's become an utter mess.

Perhaps eager to capitalize on the demand, retailers quickly turned the pre-order situation into a free-for-all, opening the floodgates a day early and allowing the quickest and savviest buyers to swoop in. Some called or walked into their local GameStop to secure a pre-order a day early, or seemingly lucked out with one of Walmart's listings for the PS5 and PS5 Digital Edition. Walmart even gleefully tweeted that it was...

Mark Zuckerberg on why he doesn’t want to “put an Apple Watch on your face”

Social networks contain multitudes. One day you're writing about internal dissent over the company's ability to uproot influence campaigns and election interference; the very next, you're watching a live stream of the same company's foray into virtual reality helmets and designer mixed reality glasses. At a company with as many interests as Facebook has, different days call for different kinds of stories. And so today's edition will be a lot different from yesterday's.

This is all a roundabout way of saying that I talked to Mark Zuckerberg about Facebook Connect. The event, which was previously called Oculus Connect, gives the company an annual opportunity to discuss the latest advances in next-generation computing platforms. Facebook...

Confirmed: The PS5 is the biggest game console in modern history

Posted: 16 Sep 2020 03:35 PM PDT

When internet detectives revealed the PlayStation 5 was going to be huge, we were extremely amused — but even their fancy Photoshops couldn't completely prepare us for how enormous the PS5 truly is.

Roughly half an hour after Sony finally revealed the next-gen console's price and release date ($399 or $499, November 12th) the company released a full spec sheet that includes the console's dimensions. And it's a monster.

Quick, what's the biggest console ever made? Did you say the original 2001 Xbox, or the VCR-sized original Xbox One? Perhaps the 60GB PS3, affectionately dubbed the "Phat"?

Wrong. The PS5 is bigger than all of them.

According to Sony, the PS5 is approximately 390mm (15.4 inches) tall, 260mm (10.24...

Please do not use a live snake as your face mask

Posted: 16 Sep 2020 03:34 PM PDT

Over the last several months, I have seen a great many comparisons of fabrics that can be used to construct homemade face masks to help prevent the spread of COVID-19, but I have not seen anyone discuss the use of live snakes. I assume it is because of this crucial omission that a man boarded a UK bus using a live snake as his face covering.

Snakes are adorable, so I understand the temptation. However, it is worth considering that a good face mask needs to be made of a breathable material, and a live snake, unfortunately, is not that. Because this man cannot breathe through his snake, which looks to my non-expert eye like a ball python, he is inhaling and exhaling through the gaps around the snake's body — which means his breath isn't...

Sony reveals PS5 accessory pricing, including $70 DualSense controller

Alongside the reveal of the PlayStation 5's $399 and $499 price tags and November 12th release date, Sony also announced how much the various accessories for the upcoming console will cost.

The most important price is that of Sony's new DualSense controller, which will cost $69.99 for additional gamepads. That's a $10 increase compared to the $59.99 MSRP for the DualShock 4 — apparently all the fancy haptic feedback technology and adaptive triggers that Sony is adding don't come cheap. And the charging station, which can recharge two DualSense controllers at once, is set to cost $29.99.

Meanwhile, the Pulse 3D wireless headset — which will support Sony's big push for 3D audio — is set to cost $99.99, while the PlayStation...

Sony has confirmed its PlayStation 5 first-party launch lineup, as well as confirming some details around PS4 versions of its exclusive titles and how the transition from current-gen to next-gen will work.

Here's the full list, including pricing and confirmation for the first time that Sony intends to raise the price on some exclusive titles by $10 to a max of $69.99:
