SUMMER SALES
Guy Cocker
THIS ISSUE of Maximum PC is filled with glimpses into the future—nextgeneration Zen 5 chips from AMD (page 8), the future of gaming keyboards with 8,000Hz polling rates (page 49), as well as the first ARM-based Snapdragon X laptops and their amazing battery life (page 72). But as any bargain hunter will know, the release of the next big thing often results in great discounts on last season’s model. And we really are seeing some excellent bargains at the moment, particularly on items like graphics cards, RAM, and SSDs.
