As part of TechRadar’s PC Gaming Week 2018, we’ve thought long and hard about what the most important PC games of all time are. From graphical milestones to the creation of a entirely new genres, these are the games that elevated PC gaming with every release. That’s why we’ve gathered together ten of the best, highlighting just why they have been so influential in shaping the course of PC gaming. Sid Meier’s Civilization (1991)It’s impossible to overstate just how influential Civilization has be

Note: Our best Linux distro for beginners feature has been fully updated. In the early days of Linux, choosing a distribution (distro) was much simpler. While you can still make a choice based on these criteria, the sheer number of Linux distros available now, and their ever vocal fan bases, makes it difficult to settle on one and get started. These are the best Linux training providers and online courses in 2018How we tested…All distros were tested on the same dual-core machine with 4GB RAM.

Most mirrorless cameras in this group have APS-C sensors, but some of our favourites have slightly smaller Micro Four Thirds sensors. Mirrorless cameras also offer interchangeable lenses. This is a relatively new area for entry-level mirrorless cameras, and they don’t all do it (though they do all offer regular 1920 x 1080 Full HD). Otherwise, read on to see the 10 best entry-level mirrorless cameras you can buy right now. Worryingly, Sony has not launched a new APS-C mirrorless camera since 201

Think of lenses with an ultra-fast f/1.2 maximum aperture and you’d expect a four-figure price tag. Not so the new Neewer 35mm f/1.2 APS-C prime lens for Fujifilm X and Sony E mounts, which costs just $119.99 (about £89 or AU$158). Chinese brand Neewer is probably known more for its range of affordable accessories, but this is the company’s second lens to date. While quite a few budget lenses will feature a seven-blade aperture diaphragm, the Neewer 35mm f/1.2 APS-C sports a nine-blade construct

Another new preview build has emerged for Windows 10, and there are a whole host of changes in this fresh effort, including some improvements for gamers. Although shutting down some of those processes might be a sensible idea, anyway, if you want to get your PC running games more smoothly. You may have already experienced SwiftKey on Android and iOS mobiles, where it has been available for some time. Another interesting move is that Windows 10’s search function has been fine-tuned to point to th

We don’t know a huge amount about the Samsung Gear S4 yet, but one thing that’s looking very likely is that it will have a bigger battery than the Samsung Gear S3 or Samsung Gear Sport, and today there’s more evidence for that, as Samsung is apparently planning to use a Panel level Packaging (PLP) manufacturing process. Now, that doesn’t necessarily mean that a larger battery will take up the remaining space, but it’s the likely option, given that we recently heard a rumor that the Gear S4 would

If you own a relatively recent and high-end Garmin watch, you’ll soon have much improved sleep tracking features on your smartwatch. This level of insight isn’t new to fitness trackers and smartwatches – for example, Fitbit has been doing this for a while – but it will mean affected Garmin watches will be better at tracking sleep than previously. Improving your sleep scoreThe app update also brings in new heart rate variability data into your night’s sleep to improve the accuracy of your results

Could it predict who will win the World Cup? The Opta approachWe know both companies have a lot of data – but who do they think will actually win the World Cup? In Opta’s case, Peter explained to me that their World Cup model doesn’t take into account the myriad of individual players’ data. For the last three World Cups, it has rightly predicted the eventual World Cup winner. TechRadar’s World Cup coverage is brought to you in association with Honor.

Consoles may have their technically impressive titles, but on PC, games aren’t held back by ageing hardware, and while that means we’re treated to some truly incredible looking experiences, it also leads to developers pushing the very best hardware to its absolute limits. The thing is, these unhindered efforts have become cornerstones in PC gaming, creating some of the most technically impressive graphics in the history of the industry. As part of TechRadar’s PC Gaming Week 2018, we take a look

Garmin Drive 51 LMT-S reviewAn easy to use and compact alternative to using your smartphone. Read our Garmin Drive 51 LMT-S reviewTomTom Via 53TomTom’s mid-range sat nav offers a host of features to tempt smartphone users. Yes, it’s expensive but it’s one of the best GPS systems available to get you from A to B. The Garmin Drive Assist 51 is laser focused on the navigation experience though, and it’s one that excels when you’re behind the wheel. It comes with voice functionality – both integrati

In case you missed the announcements for PlayStation VR, Oculus Rift and HTC Vive, don’t worry – we’ve rounded up the most exciting VR games from E3 2018. Through the game, you’ll build up your android body to become a seasoned fighter, save your friends, and save the world. In the multiplayer game, you’ll play as one of 12 mercenaries, use a range of different upgradeable weapons, and more. In Creed: Rise to Glory, you’ll play as Creed from the Rocky series of movies, and as you go you’ll box y

We recently had the unique opportunity to visit Corsair’s main headquarters located just north of Silicon Valley, in Fremont, California. We only expected a corporate building – augmented of course by the fun of PC gaming – but to our amazement inside is a competition-grade gaming room and even some testing areas where the company evaluates its products before release. Join us as we take you inside Corsair’s hallowed halls where the company comes up with some of the best PC gaming components and

The latest update to Autopilot includes a “Hold Steering Wheel” alert that pops up in 15 to 20 second intervals if it doesn’t detect driver hands on the wheel, reports Electrek. Seems like a sensible safety measure, but it’s how the wheel is detecting driver grips that’s frustrating Tesla owners. According to at least one driver, he now needs to “white knuckle death grip the wheel to keep away the nags.” Replying to this driver’s tweet, Musk said: “Will be adjusting alert to clarify that we mean

The new Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga (3rd Gen) is a classic example of that divergence. For the serious business customer, does the X1 Yoga offer the best of both worlds, or is it a regrettable compromise? Confusingly, it isn’t in the Yoga section or even the ThinkPad Yoga division. You’ll find it listed in the ThinkPad X1 collection, along with the X1 Carbon, X380 Yoga and X280. At the top end is the X1 Carbon, and one notch down from that is the ThinkPad X1 Yoga, now in its third generation which w

It’s called Concrete Genie and while it didn’t get a trailer during Sony’s keynote, it’s something I couldn’t get enough of at the show. So how exactly did a game about a teenager with an oversized paint brush enthrall me? While the genies can help Ash by removing obstacles for him, they can’t help Ash with his real world problems: bullies. But those will hopefully be ironed out by the time the game comes out – hopefully, according to developers, later this year. These themes are overflowing fro

For PC Gaming Week 2018, we here at TechRadar are celebrating everything PC gaming has to offer. And, today, we’re going to show you how to build a gaming PC. If you’re looking to equip yourself with a killer gaming PC, there are two distinct schools of thought on how to do it. But, at least it’s not as expensive to build a gaming PC as it was just 3 months ago. Which is what we’re focusing on over the next few pages: a pure gaming machine.

Let’s face it – if you haven’t been called up for your country’s World Cup soccer squad by now that ship has probably sailed, and it’s unlikely that you’re going to finish July with a World Cup winner’s medal round your neck.

Samsung has revealed a second-generation of its Chromebook Plus convertible, with the new spin on the 2-in-1 laptop getting beefed up with an Intel processor. The original Samsung Chromebook Plus ran with an ARM-based hexa-core CPU, whereas the new model goes with an Intel processor – just like its Chromebook Pro sibling – albeit not a Core family CPU, but a Celeron 3965Y. Samsung’s Chromebook Plus (V2) makes another useful change by doubling up on the cameras, offering both front and rear-facin
