Its an exciting week for PC enthusiasts since NVIDIA will be launching its latest GTX 700 series graphics card. GeForce GTX 780 benchmarks were leaked last week and today ChipHell forums have done it again by leaking GeForce GTX 770 benchmarks a week before its launch on May 31st, 2013.

DICE, a studio of Electronic Arts Inc., today announced that the highly-anticipated action blockbuster Battlefield 4 will be available this holiday for early-adopters of the next-generation hardware systems: Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft, and the PlayStation 4. Powered by the advanced Frostbite 3 engine, Battlefield 4 delivers a genre-defining all-out war experience brought to life with unmatched visual and audio fidelity, superior character animations and dynamic destruction that ensures no two matches are alike. Battlefield 4 will be available October 29 for the Xbox 360 game and entertainment system from Microsoft, the PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system and PC. Battlefield 4 will also be available for the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4.

Phil Spencer, head of Microsoft Studios, revealed that the newly announced Xbox One will get 15 exclusive games in first 12 months after its launch. And eight of these 15 are original franchises. Company revealed several developers and publishers that have promised their support for the new console and more will be revealed at E3 next month. Few games will also be at display at the E3 convention.

The big reveal is finally here, Microsoft just revealed its next-gen console. The new Xbox has been named, ‘Xbox One’. The company also introduced a new controller as well as a new Kinect motion camera. For the first time we will see a Blu-Ray drive to feature in a Xbox, and the controversial ‘always-on’ feature is added to the console.

Two days left before NVIDIA launches GeForce GTX 700 series, almost everything has been leaked related to the series. We have already seen the pictures of both GTX 770 and GTX 780, specifications have been officially confirmed but there is not much news about the custom variants from any manufacturer. But that’s changing now, we just spotted MSI GTX 770 Lightning Edition, the high-end custom variant with Twin Frozr IV cooling solution.

Every manufacturer understands the need for custom cooling for graphics cards since reference coolers are just not good enough to handle high overclocks. EVGA is moving a step ahead from its vapor chamber cooling solution and will be introducing something new in the GTX 700 series. Active Cooling Xtreme is the name given to the company’s upcoming GPU cooling solution.

Big companies always try to ruin the party of their competitors. Microsoft just announced that they will reveal their next-gen console in two-parts, first presentation is tomorrow while the second one will take place at E3 2013 which will concentrate only on the games. Sony has other plans for E3 2013, they have decided to reveal their upcoming console PlayStation 4 and takeover the attention from Microsoft.

Microsoft will reveal its next-gen console through a press conference tomorrow. Interactive Entertainment Chief of staff, Aaron Greenberg states that the console will be revealed in two-parts. In the first presentation the company will reveal its next-gen console and the second presentation will be held at E3 and it will concentrate solely on games.

NVIDIA showed off their upcoming GeForce GTX 780 in China yesterday but they didn’t tell anything about its specifications. However, a leaked picture of what appears to be some official marketing material has revealed the complete specifications and clocks of the upcoming graphics card.
