Digital Foundry | Sound Blaster AE-9 review: do you really need a sound card in 2019?
Plus: thoughts on the Sound Blaster X3 external sound card.
Do you remember Sound Blaster? For a brief moment in time in the 90s, these sound cards were an essential upgrade for any gaming PC. They gave you a place to plug in your pre-USB joystick for bouts of X-Wing vs TIE Fighter, as well as substantially better audio quality than whatever was built into your PC - if you were lucky enough to have anything at all. Nowadays though, even basic motherboards include integrated audio hardware with perfectly fine quality, plenty of inputs and fancy software features - that you've probably never used. And of course, GPUs can pipe out digital surround sound over HDMI too. Surprisingly perhaps, new Sound Blaster cards are still in production today - and after testing Creative's new flagship model, the $350/£299 AE-9, I think discrete audio hardware is still worth considering today. Here's why.

Digital Foundry | The Witcher 3 on Switch: what do you gain by modding and overclocking?
Enhanced settings, improved performance, extra detail, locked 720p - the choice is yours.
We've looked at the process of overclocking the Nintendo Switch in the past. We know that Nintendo chose to use Nvidia's Tegra X1 below its stock specification to preserve battery life and to more effectively manage thermals. But once you've overclocked a compromised unit, you can't help but wonder just how much extra performance you can unlock in any given game - and few titles challenge the Switch more than Saber Interactive and CD Projekt RED's port of The Witcher 3. Adding further spice is that a range of mods have emerged for the Switcher port, meaning that we can actually scale the game along with CPU and GPU clock speeds.

Strings attached.
Filament is a game about helping people. And it's a real nest-of-tables affair, stacked several levels deep. You wake up on a spaceship suspended, gorgeously, above the slowly turning surface of an alien planet. There's a voice in your head that seems to be telling you that there's someone else stuck on the ship too, and you should work to free them. And to do that? To do that you'll need help yourself.
