The new Radeon RX 9000 series desktop graphics card and some notable new chips make 2025 look like an interesting year for laptop and desktop PCs.

The SoCs of the Ryzen AI Max processor family raise the performance of integrated graphics units to a level that Windows devices have never seen before.

Apple's latest M4-series MacBook Pros are the best that the company has ever produced, but they are also among the most expensive in their class. That means that it's vital to take advantage of any deals whenever they become available,

This "binned" M4 Pro-equipped MacBook Pro retails for $1999 and is available through Apple's own site and online retailers like Amazon. In the box, you'll find the laptop itself, along with a color-matched braided MagSafe cable and a white 70W Apple charger. A higher-wattage fast charger is an optional extra.

The AMD Ryzen AI 300 series aims to take on the MacBook Pro at its own game. Also, the Ryzen 9 9950X3D CPU seeks to blow gamers away with its strong performance.

AMD has unveiled a new roster of chips for laptops, desktops, and gaming handhelds at CES 2025. The company says the 9950X3D, which is designed for gamers and creators, is 8% faster on average in popular games like Starfield compared to AMD’s 7950X3D.
