Acer Predator Helios 16 | GeForce RTX 4070 | Core i7 13700HX | 16-inch | 1600p | 240Hz IPS | 16GB DDR5-5600 | 1TB SSD | $1,899.99$1,299.99 at B&H Photo (save $600)We're big fans of the latest Acer Predator laptop (read our review of the RTX 4080 version) and this RTX 4070 machine has got a lot about it, too. The Core i7 13700HX CPU is ostensibly an eight-core chip with E-core benefits. That means you get 16 full power processing threads, and a further eight cores to take it up to a total of 24 threads. For a $1,300 laptop that's pretty tasty. It's also sporting some speedy DDR5 memory, a full 1TB SSD and a 500nit IPS display with a 2560 x 1600 native resolution. Sadly, it's not the Mini-LED version in the top Helios 16 models, but it's still a bright, colorful screen.
Turkulon Terrifies Aeternum Once Again This November
07.11.2023 - 20:31 / amazongames.com / New World
November is here, and The New World team will satisfy your hunger for carnage with the succulent Grand Gobbler War Hammer when Turkulon returns November 15 through 28. Hunt down the Feathered Avenger of Death and his ‘fowl army’ to earn unique, event-specific items and more frequent drops, including a giant turkey leg.
The legend of Turkulon only grows across Aeternum this year, whether heroes believe the stories or think it to be nothing more than a bedtime tale. However, one person, Trateles, takes Turkulon very seriously, blaming the creature for the death of his brother. Some have given Trateles support on his crusade. Others make fun of him, giving him the nickname of Turkules. But Turkules believes he can finally stop the beast and has forged the weapon that can defeat his foe, a mighty hammer that he calls the Grand Gobbler.
Turkulon can be found throughout Everfall, Brightwood, Mourningdale, Restless Shore, Windsward, Monarch’s Bluffs, and Cutlass Keys. Team up with your fellow Adventurers to take down this level 66 open world boss. Best of all, players are guaranteed to receive all of the rewards after killing Turkulon 16 times.
Turkulon is a recurring seasonal visitor to the world of Aeternum, and we recently shared a rare glimpse into its origin story in a post where the New World devs celebrated the game’s 2nd anniversary .
For more details on fighting Turkulon for the Grand Gobbler, check out the full post on the official New World site .

I am once again telling Xbox gamers not to buy the Seagate Expansion card
Not all Black Friday deals are built equally - and we often get a hint that some might be worse than others months in advance. Back in October Amazon held its Big Deal Days event, marking the second Prime-exclusive sale of the year. As always, it sparked loads of other retailers to join in the fun and do a dress rehearsal for Black Friday, and while scouring the shelves, I noticed that Xbox gamers weren't getting the best value for money they could.

Vampire: The Masquerade courts controversy once again, this time over ‘bleed’
Vampire: The Masquerade publisher Renegade Games shared a single two-page spread late last week that caught some in the tabletop role-playing game’s community by surprise. In it, Paradox Interactive’s World of Darkness studio invoked a sensitive role-playing concept called “bleed,” sparking commentary and, in some cases, outrage. On Wednesday, World of Darkness clarified that material with the release of more pages of content — and, once again, the promise of more thorough safety materials to be published at a later time.
