WHERE TO BUY: The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 launches on March 5 with a starting price of $549. It will be available at Amazon and Best Buy, though third-party models may cost more.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 is here, and while it is not the most exciting upgrade, it is still the latest mid-range option in the 50-series lineup.

Performance is nearly identical to RTX 4070 Super, with only a slight lead in some games and even some losses in others. The only real improvement is the inclusion of DLSS 4, which allows Multi-Frame Generation to artificially boost frame rates. That comes with added latency, making it more useful for single-player games than competitive ones.

Nvidia RTX 5070 vs. RTX 4070 Super

At launch, RTX 5070 is priced at $549. That makes it $50 cheaper than the 4070 Super at launch, but that may not be enough to make up for the lack of a real generational jump. It is a reasonable choice for those who skipped the 40-series and are upgrading from something older. But it may be better to buy the 4070 Super if you can find stock.

For those who already have a RTX 4070 Super, I've noticed around a 15% bump in general performance from my MSI model by using a program called DLSS Swapper. This allows users to use DLSS 4 on 4000 series cards (usually locked to 3.5) and is managed by games that use the AI tech.

Here's a spec comparison for RTX 5070 to RTX 4070 Super:

• CUDA Cores: 6,144 / 7,168

• VRAM: 12GB GDDR7 / 12GB GDDR6X

• Memory Bus:192-bit / 192-bit

• Power Draw: 250W / 220W

• DLSS Version: DLSS 4 / DLSS 3.5

For those set on getting RTX 5070, Amazon and Best Buy are the best places to look. Amazon will have a range of third-party models from brands like ASUS, MSI, and Gigabyte. Prices may vary, especially if resellers get involved. Best Buy is the most reliable place to find Nvidia’s Founders Edition cards, which tend to sell out quickly. Both stores will have stock at launch, but availability may change within hours.

The card itself is built on Nvidia’s Blackwell architecture and features 6,144 CUDA cores, 12GB of GDDR7 memory, and a 192-bit memory bus. The power draw is slightly higher than the previous generation, reaching 250W compared to the 220W of 4070 Super. That should not be an issue for most modern power supplies, but it is something to keep in mind for those with lower-wattage setups.

Buying a GPU at launch always comes with some risk. Prices may fluctuate, stock may disappear, and better deals may come up later. If RTX 5070 drops below $549, it becomes a more attractive option. If the 4070 Super stays in stock at a lower price, it may be worth choosing instead.

For those who do not want to wait, checking Amazon and Best Buy early on launch day is the best bet.

Not the day you're after? Here's the solution to yesterday's Mini Crossword.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has announced that GPT-4.5 will "likely" begin rolling out to ChatGPT Plus subscribers "over a few days" rather than all at once. You'll just have to continue being patient.

"there is no perfect way to do this; we wanted to do it for everyone tomorrow, but it would have meant we had to launch with a very low rate limit," Altman posted to X on Tuesday. "we think people are gonna use this a lot and love it. so we think it's better to let people have real, long conversations with it, but that means we have to stagger people in rather than have everyone hit it hard a [sic] the same time."

Tweet may have been deleted

Announced last Thursday, GPT-4.5 is the latest version of OpenAI's large language model (LLM), and will apparently be the last which doesn't use chain-of-thought prompting. Chain-of-thought models strive to simulate human reasoning by breaking down complex tasks into manageable, logical steps, which are followed to ultimately reach an answer.

Though GPT-4.5 isn't quite there yet, OpenAI asserts that early testing indicates that interaction with it "feels more natural."

"Its broader knowledge base, improved ability to follow user intent, and greater 'EQ' make it useful for tasks like improving writing, programming, and solving practical problems," OpenAI said last week. "We also expect it to hallucinate less."

SEE ALSO: OpenAI's GPT-4.5 is here. How to try it now.

Even so, Altman has attempted to temper expectations, noting that GPT-4.5 "isn’t a reasoning model and won’t crush benchmarks."

The rolling, staggered release of GPT-4.5 doesn't come as a surprise. Altman previously stated that though OpenAI had initially wanted to launch the "giant, expensive model" to ChatGPT Plus and Pro subscribers simultaneously, a lack of graphics processing units (GPUs) prevented this. As such, ChatGPT Pro subscribers got their hands on it first. A ChatGPT Pro subscription costs $200 per month, while a Plus subscription is $20 per month.

"we will add tens of thousands of GPUs next week and roll it out to the plus tier then," Altman wrote on Thursday. "(hundreds of thousands coming soon, and i'm pretty sure y'all will use every one we can rack up.)"

Remember the iconic 1994 action flick Speed, in which Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock were stuck on a bus that would explode if it slowed below 50 mph? Picture that, but instead of a bus it's a bullet train hurtling toward Tokyo, and instead of Keanu Reeves it's one very dedicated train conductor.

Netflix has released a teaser trailer for Bullet Train Explosion, the next project from Shin Godzilla director Shinji Higuchi. A modern reboot of the 1975 Japanese film The Bullet Train, Bullet Train Explosion follows Tohoku Shinkansen Hayabusa No. 60, a train which has been rigged to explode if its speed drops below 100 km/h (62 mph). That is, unless a ransom of 100 billion yen (approximately $667 million) is paid.

Aboard the train is conductor Takaichi (Tsuyoshi Kusanagi), who looks like he's about to demonstrate a ridiculously fierce commitment to customer service and passenger safety. He won't be alone on the worst train ride ever though, with the ensemble cast also including Kanata Hosoda, Non, Jun Kaname, Machiko Ono, Hana Toyoshima, and Takumi Saitoh.

Bullet Train Explosion will arrive April 23 on Netflix.

We're living in a high-definition, super-connected world. It makes sense that 4K smart TVs are now the expected standard for streaming from your favourite apps, up-to-date to gaming, and accessing a whole host of tech-savvy features. Not to mention the fact that 4K resolution looks absolutely incredible across a 50-inch (or bigger) screen.

Let's put it another way: You need a TV that’s up to the task of keeping you entertained while also keeping pace with the latest innovations. But one that comes at a price that suits you, of course. Thankfully, there's no shortage of choice when it comes to 4K TVs. The top manufacturers, such as Samsung and LG, update their smart TV ranges pretty much every year. There's never a bad time to upgrade.

But with an ever-growing selection of TV brands, not to mention all the head-spinning terminology, choosing a new 4K TV isn't always straightforward. If you want the latest spec — and a model that won't look out of date after a few months — it can be hard to navigate. After all, it wasn't so long ago that Full HD was the sharpest resolution on the block. Now it's budget level.

To help put you in the picture, we've pulled together some helpful information and a selection of the best 4K TVs available right now.

What resolution is 4K?

The futuristic sounding 4K is another way of saying ultra-high definition. A 4K TV display has at least 8 million active pixels. That’s a standardised resolution of 3,840 x 2,160 — four times the resolution of the HD standard of 1080p. Top branded TVs will also do a great job of upscaling regular HD and SD content so it looks as polished as possible on your 4K display.

How big are 4K TVs?

When it comes to 4K, bigger is indeed better. And why not? A bigger screen makes sense to get the most out of the 4K quality — and to set these TVs apart from smartphones and small devices, which we increasingly use to watch HD content. The smallest size in 4K is usually 48 inches, going up to 55, 65, 75, and even 80+ inch screens. The screen size is measured diagonally, from corner to corner.

How much do 4K TVs cost?

This very much depends on the spec and manufacturer. It’s possible to find basic (but good quality) models around the £400 mark. You might be surprised to find that for TVs that offer multiple screen sizes, there isn’t a huge price difference between 48 and 65-inch models. It’s when you go past 80 inches that the prices really start to go up.

What’s better, OLED or QLED?

OLED and QLED are the panel technologies behind premium 4K screens. OLED stands for Organic Light Emitting Diode. It uses a carbon-based film between two conductors that emits its own light when electric current is passed through. This creates a “self-emissive” display, as the OLED panel generates light without needing to use a backlight (as used by LCD displays). Its pixels are individually lit.

OLED has whiter whites, because the panel lights itself, and blacker blacks, because the pixels turn off entirely without using a backlight. OLED prevents “hotpsots” (overly bright areas) and “blooming” (when lighter images bleed into dark patches).

QLED stands for Quantum-dot Light Emitting Diode. Championed by Samsung — the world’s biggest manufacturer of televisions — QLED is a type of LCD panel technology. It uses an LCD backlight and quantum dot colour filter that boosts colour and contrast. QLED is renowned for delivering a brighter picture than OLED — which is especially useful if you’re watching in a brightly-lit room. Samsung also has its own version called Neo QLED, which replaces usual LED diodes with ever smaller "mini" LEDs.

What is the best 4K TV for gaming?

If you’re planning on connecting a TV to a PS5 or Xbox Series X, there are features to look out for. Make sure it has HDMI 2.1 ports, which deliver better bandwidth, higher resolution, and higher frame rates. A gaming-friendly TV will also support eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel), ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode), 4K@120Hz (High Frame Rate), HGiG tone-mapping, and VRR (Variable Refresh Rate).

What is the best 4K TV?

We've searched the internet for some of the best 4K TVs. Maybe you're looking for pure power, or maybe you're on a tight budget. No matter what you're looking for, there should be something for you in this list. These 4K TVs are truly eye-popping.

These are the best 4K TVs in 2025.

Connections: Sports Edition is a new version of the popular New York Times word game that seeks to test the knowledge of sports fans.

Like the original Connections, the game is all about finding the "common threads between words." And just like Wordle, Connections resets after midnight and each new set of words gets trickier and trickier—so we've served up some hints and tips to get you over the hurdle.

If you just want to be told today's puzzle, you can jump to the end of this article for the latest Connections solution. But if you'd rather solve it yourself, keep reading for some clues, tips, and strategies to assist you.

The NYT's latest daily word game has launched in association with The Athletic, the New York Times property that provides the publication's sports coverage. Connections can be played on both web browsers and mobile devices and require players to group four words that share something in common.

Each puzzle features 16 words and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise of anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer.

If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake—players get up to four mistakes until the game ends.

Players can also rearrange and shuffle the board to make spotting connections easier. Additionally, each group is color-coded with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, you can share the results with your friends on social media.

If you're reading this, you're looking for a little help playing Strands, the New York Times' elevated word-search game.

Strands requires the player to perform a twist on the classic word search. Words can be made from linked letters — up, down, left, right, or diagonal, but words can also change direction, resulting in quirky shapes and patterns. Every single letter in the grid will be part of an answer. There's always a theme linking every solution, along with the "spangram," a special, word or phrase that sums up that day's theme, and spans the entire grid horizontally or vertically.

By providing an opaque hint and not providing the word list, Strands creates a brain-teasing game that takes a little longer to play than its other games, like Wordle and Connections.

Originally created by engineer Josh Wardle as a gift for his partner, Wordle rapidly spread to become an international phenomenon, with thousands of people around the globe playing every day. Alternate Wordle versions created by fans also sprang up, including battle royale Squabble, music identification game Heardle, and variations like Dordle and Quordle that make you guess multiple words at once. 

Wordle eventually became so popular that it was purchased by the New York Times, and TikTok creators even livestream themselves playing.

Not the day you're after? Here's the solution to yesterday's Wordle.

I have something shameful to confess: I never got around to watching Netflix's Daredevil. But after watching Daredevil: Born Again, Marvel's soft reboot of the franchise, I know I need to go back and rectify that error immediately.

SEE ALSO: 'Daredevil: Born Again' trailer marks a bloody return for Matt Murdock, Wilson Fisk, and more

That's because Daredevil: Born Again checks off the major boxes I want from a superhero show (and that I've been missing from the MCU's recent TV offerings). It leans further into serialized elements, offers up relentless action, and never skimps on character beats when it comes to its central masked vigilante, played to perfection by Charlie Cox. While I certainly have my qualms with Daredevil: Born Again — most having to do with Wilson Fisk's (Vincent D'Onofrio) arc — there's no denying that the show has made me a Daredevil fan.

Daredevil: Born Again is pretty accessible to Daredevil newbies like myself, although it helps if you've absorbed some knowledge of the show through pop cultural osmosis. Knowing anything about Matt Murdock's (Cox) power set and his prior showdowns with Fisk will be a huge help, but Born Again does a solid job of keeping you up to speed on what you need to know.

A lot of that comes down to the fact that Born Again resets pretty hard in its first episode. Matt's friends and law partners Foggy Nelson (Elden Henson) and Karen Page (Deborah Ann Woll) are back for just a moment before getting swept from the board in different ways, each heartbreaking in its own right. Their presence helps bridge the gap from the Netflix series to Born Again, but their absence stings throughout the season, especially since Matt's new connections, like firm partner Kirsten McDuffie (Nikki M. James) and love interest Heather Glenn (Margarita Levieva), get less development than they deserve. And yes, I might not have watched Daredevil, but even I can't deny the chemistry Matt, Karen, and Foggy shared in their few scenes together! All the more incentive for me — and any other Daredevil newbies — to go back and catch up on what I've missed.

SEE ALSO: All Marvel Cinematic Universe movies, ranked worst to best

Of course, while I grew accustomed to the lack of Foggy and Karen fairly quickly, longtime fans will need more time to process a Daredevil show without them. Daredevil: Born Again seems to know this. In the show's very first scene, Foggy proclaims that his yearning for the Hell's Kitchen of years ago is "not nostalgia." Instead, "it's reverence for the past, yet hope for the future." That mentality seems to be Daredevil: Born Again's ethos going forward. The show aims to respectfully balance the key figures of Matt's old life (aka Netflix's Daredevil) with the big changes ahead.

The biggest change? No more Daredevil. With Karen and Foggy out of the picture, Matt makes a vow to retire his vigilante persona once and for all. His enemy Fisk does something similar, opting to leave his villainous Kingpin days behind and run for New York City mayor. (A famously non-shady position.) For Matt and Fisk alike, their dismissal of their alter egos signals an attempt to achieve their goals through the "right" channels. Yet over the course of Born Again, both men find themselves drawn inexorably back into their past habits. It's only a matter of time until they revert to their old ways, right?

That reversion may take longer than Daredevil fans might expect. Matt doesn't spend a lot of time in his Daredevil suit, for example, but that doesn't mean we don't get scenes of him in action. Still, the tension between his "real" self and the lurking presence of his vigilante persona remains the most fascinating part of Born Again, as Matt reckons with whether he can still do the most good without the help of Daredevil.

This won't come as a surprise to Daredevil viewers, but there's no denying Charlie Cox is perfectly cast as Matt Murdock. Charismatic flirt, tortured hero... He can do it all.

Cox's assuredness in the role is undoubtedly one of the reasons why I acclimated so quickly to Born Again. Even if you don't know or don't remember the ins and outs of Netflix's Daredevil, you've got a great guide in Cox, whose firm grasp on Matt Murdock keeps Daredevil chugging along in a more character-driven fashion.

Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of Fisk or his wife Vanessa (Ayelet Zurer). The pair's gravelly-voiced illegal dealings often feel out of place in Born Again, like a watered-down caricature of The Sopranos. Yes, Born Again is clearly interested in paralleling the chafing between Fisk's new mayoral office and criminal instincts with Matt's own identity crisis. For some scenes, especially intercut montages of the two facing similar turning points, this works wonders. But too often, the Fisks' repetitive discussions of gang payback and bureaucratic red tape bog down an otherwise propulsive show.

No wonder, then, that Born Again's best installment is also the one that doesn't feature any Fisk action at all. Coming halfway through the season, the episode treats us to a tightly-focused hostage situation that puts Cox's star power on full display — and reminds us of the power of serialized TV. Other standout arcs include the trial of Hector Ayala (Kamar de los Reyes), a man falsely accused of killing a cop, as well as the search for the menacing serial killer known as Muse. The Ayala trial grants us the gift of Matt in full attorney mode, while Muse's murder methods are some of the most stomach-churning on the show. Unfortunately, the Muse storyline lacks the development to truly stick its landing, but its truncated beats can't stop Muse from cementing himself as one of the scariest villains in the MCU.

Kingpin lurks at the edges of these storylines, mostly to rasp about how much he hates Matt and vigilantes. But it's toward the end of the season, when his and Matt's paths really begin to intersect, that the show loses more of its way. Daredevil: Born Again was the subject of a major creative overhaul during production, so perhaps its clumsy conclusion is part of that messy process shining through.

Overall, though, Daredevil: Born Again stakes its claim as one of the MCU's strongest TV entries, thanks in no small part to Cox's work and some exceptionally gnarly fights. These elements are strong enough that they made me a Daredevil fan without even having seen the original. Fret not, they've also encouraged me to go back in time and catch up on what I was missing out on. If Daredevil: Born Again is enough to go off of, then I'm in for a treat.

The first two episodes of Daredevil: Born Again are now streaming on Disney+, with new episodes premiering Tuesdays at 9 p.m. ET.

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has just added new exploits to its actively exploited list, as first noticed by BleepingComputer.

CISA's actions basically serve as a warning to U.S. federal agencies about vulnerabilities currently being exploited in the wild. 

One exploit being tracked, CVE-2023-20118, allows hackers to remotely "execute arbitrary commands" on certain VPN routers. These routers include Cisco Small Business Routers RV016, RV042, RV042G, RV082, RV320, and RV325.

"An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP request to the web-based management interface," CISA wrote. "A successful exploit could allow the attacker to gain root-level privileges and access unauthorized data."

In order to take advantage of this exploit, an attacker would need admin credentials. However, as BleepingComputer points out, hackers could take advantage of another vulnerability, CVE-2023-20025, in order to bypass authentication. 

Another vulnerability added by CISA is CVE-2018-8639. This bug affects a broad swath of Windows operating systems including Windows 7, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows RT 8.1, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2012, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 10, and Windows 10 Servers.

According to CISA, this vulnerability "exists in Windows when the Win32k component fails to properly handle objects in memory." A bad actor with local access to the vulnerable system can utilize the exploit to run arbitrary code in kernel mode. BleepingComputer reports that a bad actor could use this vulnerability to "alter data or create rogue accounts with full user rights to take over vulnerable Windows devices."

Microsoft and Cisco have not yet released their own security warning regarding these two exploits.
