Intel 8th-gen motherboards explained: Z370 vs. H370 vs. B360 vs. H310
Selecting the best Intel 300-series motherboard to fit your needs was straightforward when the initial wave of 8th-gen Core desktop processors launched in October 2017, because only the enthusiast-class Z370 chipset released alongside the new chips. That was enough to help the flagship Core i7-8700K CPU counter AMD’s Ryzen threat at the high end, but left PC users looking for more affordable options in a pickle. Buying a $100 Core i3 chip doesn’t make much sense when you’re forced to slap ...

Microsoft Patch Alert: April patches infested with bugs, but most are finally contained
People think I’m joking when I refer to bug fixing as Microsoft’s next billion-dollar business. I’m not.

Microsoft’s hell-bent move to bring out new versions of Windows twice a year “as a service” makes things worse, but quality control problems dog patches to every version of Windows. Except, arguably, Windows 8.1.In April, we’ve seen a return to two...
