The RTX 5070 Ti is sold out, but you can still find pre-built PCs in stock

NVIDIA's RTX 5070 Ti unsurprisingly sold out in seconds, but that doesn't mean you can't get the new GPU on launch day. I found these pre-built PCs with the GPU.

NVIDIA CES 2025

How do NVIDIA’s RTX 5000 GPUs perform without DLSS? We just got our first look.

The first of NVIDIA's RTX 5000 GPUs is expected at the end of January, and the company has released details surrounding non-DLSS performance. Here's what you need to know.

Intel outlines five major issues affecting its latest desktop CPUs — could Arrow Lake be better for gaming than we thought?

Intel's "Arrow Lake" desktop CPUs didn't wow us with gaming performance, but we weren't getting the whole picture. Intel has now revealed the 5 main issues with solutions that are already underway.

Raspberry Pi 500 and Pi Monitor offer a minimalist, low-power, but useful desktop

The arrival of the Raspberry Pi really revolutionized not just the computer education market that it targeted but also hobbyists, makers, and all sorts of creators. It offered a computer that, while not as powerful as the weakest laptop in the market, could handle a variety of applications, from programming to word processing to smart home automation. Best of all, it was affordable at only $50 on average.

While the RPi, as it is lovingly called, is now used to power no small number of DIY projects that need a discrete but capable computer, its true calling is still providing that computing power for students, home users, and everyone in between. That’s the calling that Raspberry Pi’s new dynamic duo is answering, providing a simple and minimalist desktop computer at a fraction of the price.

Designer: Raspberry Pi Foundation

The Raspberry Pi is a single-board computer or SBC that shatters misconceptions of what computers look like. Rather than a towering desktop or a slim laptop, you get a credit card-sized electronics board with ports rising from its top. It is definitely a complete computer, but one that needs a keyboard, a display, and a power supply to use like a normal computer.

The Raspberry Pi 500 carries on the new tradition of providing a ready-to-use solution for people who just want a usable Linux computer without having to worry about cases or cables to connect peripherals. It’s part of a rare breed of computers that are hiding inside a keyboard, which is fortunately the right amount of space required by the Raspberry Pi. Although the layout of ports on the back of the keyboard is different, it has the exact number of them, including the 40-pin GPIO connector for experiments and fun.

Of course, you can’t really use a computer these days without some sort of display, so Raspberry Pi launched its own 15.6-inch Monitor for that very purpose. Designed to work with any Raspberry Pi model, in fact, any HDMI device, it fits the use case of the RPi 500 perfectly. Together, you practically have a space-saving computer that only needs a 5V power supply to work. Yes, you’ll need a mouse, too, but Raspberry Pi also sells one, fortunately.

Admittedly, this “Raspberry Pi Desktop” won’t win awards in terms of power, and not everyone will be comfortable using Linux as their operating system. That said, the combo does provide unique value for Linux and power users who want a low-profile, low-power, but still capable desktop computer for their daily needs. Plus, it’s the Raspberry Pi, so you can connect a whole host of other devices, sensors, and DIY components to take it beyond its advertised purposes.

Desk lets you be “lazy” when you need a break

Whether you’re working from home or from your cubicle in the office, a lot of times we’re expected to work continuously during official work hours. But as numerous studies have proven, we need to take a break every once in a while to just rest our eyes, mind, and body. It’s easier to do it at home but when you’re in the office, you need to find your space or uncomfortably like your head on your table.

Despite the negative connotation associated with the name, Lazy is a concept for a desk that will let you be “lazy” when you need to take a break. It’s a work desk and chair that has some additional features that lets you rest without needing to move somewhere else. Ideally of course you should step away when you want a break, but for those times when you can’t, then this is an alternative.

The desk has a cushion on the upper left part which lets you take a nap or even just lay your head down and close your eyes. Laying your head on a wooden desk is not that comfortable but the cushion should be a better option. Under the table are strings that lets you swing your feet around if you need some movement. There’s also a gap in the desk where you can place your laptop when not in use or books, notebooks, documents that you don’t need at the moment.

The chair that is part of the Lazy furniture matches the table. My one complaint with this though is that it doesn’t have a backrest so it might be uncomfortable if you’re sitting at your desk for some time. But otherwise, I’m looking forward to having a cushion ready at the desk for my daily nap.
