The War of the Worlds: Chapter XII. WHAT I SAW OF THE DESTRUCTION OF WEYBRIDGE AND SHEPPERT

The Nvidia RTX 30 series have been out for a while and have made headlines for their incredible performance and their incredible scarcity. Unfortunately, they have mostly existed in desktop form. People who want a gaming laptop with one of the latest have had to wait a while for them to come out. graphics cards graphics cards Fortunately, they have finally arrived. The first wave of laptops boasting Nvidia’s latest offerings are starting to become available. Please note that not all these gaming laptops on this list have been released yet and some of them might be out of stock. The performance of these laptops has or will be examined to death by people far more qualified than I am, but raw performance isn’t all that makes a laptop work. The four manufacturers we looked at today have managed to find all kinds of features and gimmicks to throw into their gaming laptops. One of the best things about these gaming laptops are the new screens that they have. A few years ago, the best you could expect would be the standard 60hz or the faster 144hz. Many of these laptops on this list go far beyond that, up to 360hz! Naturally, these translate to a higher potential framerate. Most competitive games would benefit from that but it’s to play any of the best looking games at a high framerate at the native resolutions these laptops boast. proven hard for even the mighty 3080 So, anyway, here are eight gaming laptop offerings, divided by brand to keep your eye out for. 1. Gigabyte Gigabyte’s main gaming laptop offerings exist in the AORUS brand. They do have other laptops with 30-series cards in the AERO range but those are aimed at content creators that will see you pay out the nose for features you probably don’t need to game, like OLED screens that have better colours but slower refresh rates. The Gigabyte’s 15” offerings in the AORUS 15P and AORUS 15G are almost identical. Only that the 15P is slightly thicker than its counterpart and less customisable as the 15G can take a 3060 for those on a tighter budget. The 17” version, the AORUS 17G is where it gets interesting. It is the only laptop on this list to include a mechanical keyboard, a feature that does add some weight at only a minimal cost to size. Another important thing to consider would be the screens. The AORUS 15 variants have screens that only go up to 240hz while the AORUS 17 goes up to 300hz. This laptop range is also the only one to limit screen resolution options to FHD, or the old standard of 1920x1080 which comes with a lower pixel density than the other laptops you might find on this list. | AORUS 17G AORUS 15G ASUS ASUS has split its laptops into two main ranges, STRIX and ROG Zephyrus. The Zephyrus line is the sleeker and lighter of the pair, more focused on aesthetics and portability than raw horsepower. 2. STRIX 15”/17” The STRIX range is ASUS’ cheaper option. They only have RTX 3060 and RTX 3070 available to be used and with FHD displays that typically run at 144hz, though more expensive variants allow for 300hz. graphics cards | STRIX 17” STRIX 15” 3. STRIX SCAR 15”/17” The STRIX SCAR is a more advanced version of the STRIX. The displays default to QHD resolutions with a minimum refresh rate of 165hz and a maximum of 300hz. They are also capable of using the more expensive and powerful RTZ 3080. | STRIX SCAR 17” STRIX SCAR 15" 4. ROG Zephyrus The ROG Zephyrus is closer in execution to a Macbook Pro than a traditional gaming laptop. It packs enough processing power to rival traditional “gamer” laptops without the typical tacky looks. It doesn’t have a 300hz display option, though all of its variants use a 165hz display. It’s also worth noting that most of its variants only have 8GB of RAM which isn’t enough for most modern games. ROG ZEPHYRUS 14" 5. ROG Zephyrus Duo The ROG Zephyrus Duo is a pretty strange machine. It isn’t as sleek as the ROG Zephyrus and sees the return of tacky aesthetics but it is a unique machine. It boasts a second screen that is raised from its chassis and improves airflow when the screen is raised. Having a second screen is helpful for the utility of being able to use a second window without minimising the first. Keeping Spotify or Discord open on the second screen is a good idea. It offers 3060, 3070 and 3080 variants. The 3060 and 3070 variants have 300hz FHD screens while the 3080 variant has a QHD 120hz screen. ROG Zephyrus Duo 15” 6. Razer Razer’s main offering, the Razer Blade, has been a solid choice for a gaming laptop for quite a few years now and it doesn’t seem to be any different this time. There is plenty of choice when configuring Razer Blades. They come in 15” and 17” with display options ranging from FHD 360hz to QHD at 165hz and even touch screen OLED at 120hz. They pack the full range of GPU options as well. Buy it here MSI MSI has the most diverse lineup of the companies on this list with four gaming laptop types having 30-series cards being available to them. They also share Resizable BAR technology, a feature that can produce up to 10% better performance. 7. GE76 Raider The GE76 Raider is the highest-spec laptop from MSI. It uses an Intel i9 CPU which is more potent than the i7 and i5 variants counterparts. Display wise, it lets users pick between FHD 240hz and 300hz with a 4K option with no refresh rate indicated, presumably 60hz. Buy it here Something else that does make it appealing is the GE76 Raider Tiamat version, which has some unique carvings on its chassis but is otherwise identical to the GE76. 8. GP76 and GP66 Leopard These laptops are functionally identical except that the GP76 has an aluminum chassis for a more premium feel. They only have the 3070 available and have FHD 144hz screens which the 3070 should be able to comfortably make use of. Buy it from their website 9. GF65 Thin The GF65 Thin is a gaming laptop intended to be easy to carry around. It doesn’t look very special but that doesn’t stop it from packing 3060s and having an FHD 144hz screen at a lower price point than the other laptops. | GF75 GF65 10. Stealth 15M This laptop is a premium version of the GF65 and is uniquely equipped with an 11th generation Intel i7 while the other laptops on this list have 10th generation processors. It’s also the lightest at 1.7kg. Like the GF65, it uses the 3060 and has an FHD 144hz screen. Buy it here Wrapping up There’s a fairly varied group of gaming laptops that have 30-series that can fill just about any price point. Seeing so many models go beyond FHD displays and at consistently higher refresh rates really shows how powerful 30-series cards can be. Some of the more innovative features like the second screen on the ASUS Zephyrus Duo are certainly interesting. graphics cards The more professional-looking models like the MSI Stealth 15M are also great for not standing out in public. Ultimately, keep these models in mind and keep an eye out for benchmarks!

The Roaring Wave of Fear That Swept Through the Greatest City in the World

Over the past few years, the online digital banking industry has exploded, growing from a budding community into a force with which to be reckoned. What was once a collection of small tech startups desperate for investors is now a billion-dollar industry that challenges traditional financial institutions. Way back in 2014, Jamie Dimon, CEO of America's largest bank JPMorgan Chase, the emergence of the modern fintech banking industry. In an annual letter to shareholders, he warned investors about the threat of Silicon Valley fintech startups, saying that: predicted "they all want to eat our lunch, every single one of them is going to try and a lot of them will succeed." New advancements in financial technology mean these digital banking startups can now offer better products, faster, and at cheaper rates due to low overheads, automated systems, minimal staff, and no physical branches. Traditional banks that are reluctant to utilize automation technologies that would result in staff redundancies are unable to match the attractive rates and low costs of digital banks. However, while a new school of young professionals may be ready to embrace these technologies, can they offer the same level of service to corporate clients? Digital banks that are leading the charge Millennials and mobile phones have been noted as the main contributing factors in the rise of digital banking. Reports indicate that as many as 60% of Millennials are not satisfied with existing banking infrastructure and in low-income countries, over 2 billion citizens remain unbanked due to lack of access to services. Now, for the first time, the digital banking industry presents an opportunity to solve these issues. Individual users with only basic banking requirements have been drawn to small startups like Simple Bank, which offers powerful budgeting tools and no-fee structure. The only fees customers incur is when using their debit cards outside of the US, and VISA charges this fee, not Simple. The company is similar to , a UK-based mobile-only banking solution aimed at offering low-fee banking to frequent travellers. Monzo Offshore digital bank EQIBank, based in Dominica, was founded in 2016 and is comprised of former employees from HSBC, Credit Suisse, Bank of New York and UBS. The tech startup is the world's first licensed and regulated offshore bank, boasting 240 years of combined experience from its founders and directors. of the current shift in the banking sector, EQIBank CEO Jason Blick feels "banking is broken" and that the traditional industry has not evolved to support new emerging asset classes. Speaking "The process is too complex, too expensive and too insecure. We launched EQIBank to solve these problems, redefining the boundaries of banking," commented Blick. Across the pond, London-based was founded in 2014 by Anne Boden, once Vice President of UBS and former COO of Allied Irish Banks. The mobile-only digital bank has raised over $300 million in funding since its inception and is licensed and regulated by the Prudential Regulation Authority and the Financial Conduct Authority. The bank has, in the past, been associated with the hugely successful online money transfer company TransferWise, another challenger to the traditional banking sector. Starling Bank Looking ahead Since Dimon's ominous prediction, several high-level employees from the traditional banking sector have made the move into the fintech industry, bringing an added level of professionalism to the industry. Now, many digital banking customers have access to an extensive range of financial services including trading, custody, lending, clearing, and settlements. While the majority of large organizations currently maintain their existing banking relationships, going forward, it would appear the traditional banking sector may need to revolutionize or risk getting left behind. Soon, teenagers who opened their first-ever bank account online will not understand the concept of visiting a physical branch or meeting a bank manager in person. Many of these teens will grow into positions of power, starting businesses of their own while maintaining a relationship with their choice of online digital bank. As these startups foresee the need for comprehensive services that meet the needs of corporate clients, several traditional banks are already stepping up to meet the challenge. Barclays, Citigroup, and Charles Schwab are just some of the traditional banks that have begun investigating fintech solutions to compete with the onslaught of tech startups. As the second decade of the 21st century draws to a close, it will be interesting to see how the banking industry develops in the next ten years. Disruptive technologies like blockchain and AI are likely to shake-up the financial world in a way never before seen, changing the face of banking forever.
