Is It Safe To
Build a New PC?
Depends on if you need a new
GPU... find out when the next
CPUs are coming, and what's going on with
AMD's RX 480 & 470, along with
Nvidia's
GTX 1070 &
1080, the deal with the
Founder Editions, why the RX 470 could kill the
GTX 970, and a great
SSD deal!

DIY Rasberry Pi WAP?
Jason writes, "There is a place that I travel to for work that has ethernet connections provided in the rooms, but no WiFi. Is it possible to turn my
Raspberry Pi 1 model B+ into a
WiFi hotspot so I don't have to use my mobile data plan, or is some type of travel router the only way to go?" Turns out you CAN use a R.Pi as an AP, and luckily Adafruit has a tutorial for the B+ on their site!
