The market has been full of speculations ever since Sony launched the Sony Xperia Ace III, the Ace series compact smartphone, earlier in May this year. Tech enthusiasts across the world have expected the Japanese smartphone maker to announce its next entry-level product at any time.

And now if the latest leaks are to be believed, the brand is ready to hit the stores with Ace III’s successor in the series, Sony Xperia Ace IV. The company is reportedly looking at a global launch as early as the first half of the next year. The popular Chinese blog Sumaho Digest has been credited in the media reports for the leak of the soon to be launched Sony smartphone.

According to the leak, the consumer electronic brand’s new smartphone will also be a compact device and may be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 SoC. Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 SoC reportedly carry a 15 per cent faster CPU as well as a 10 per cent faster GPU as compared to the Snapdragon 480, the processor that powers the Xperia Ace III model.

The leaked specification also revealed that the Xperia Ace IV might sport a 5.5-inch OLED display. Now it was already an assumption in the industry that Sony will work on significantly improving the display of the upcoming releases of their Ace series smartphones. Xperia Ace III had an HD+ LCD panel display.

So, now the tipped specifications say that Xperia Ace IV with a 5.5-inch OLED display will also support an FHD+ pixel resolution of 1080×2520. The smartphone is also said to have a display panel with an aspect ratio of 21:9.

Other leaked specifications of Sony Xperia Ace IV

6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage
a MicroSD slot
4,500mAh battery
a 3.5mm audio jack

While no other specifications were included in the leak, speculations are rife that same as others the new smartphone to join the Xperia Ace series will also have an IP rating to denote water and dust resistance.

While the tip doesn’t include renders of the about to be launched Xperia Ace IV, many on the internet claimed that the device might look similar to the previous models of the Ace series. The tipped specification also didn’t have any information about the market price of the product. There has been no confirmation or denial from the official sources of the brand about the leak.

Sony is expected to have a global launch of the Sony Xperia Ace IV in 2023. This is great news after the previous three models in the Xperia Ace series saw a limited release, which made them available only in the Japanese market. If this news is true, this could be Sony’s big step back into the global smartphone market.

The segment of entry-level smartphones is already competitive and yet there is scope for new addition because of the fatigue most of the other prominent brands have created over time.

If Sony can successfully penetrate this segment of smartphones with their new and old Ace series smartphones, it could play a huge advantage for any upcoming products that the brand may launch in the future. There has been no update on the timeline of the launch and Sony has managed to keep the launch data tightly under wraps.

Often, it stops working due to some reasons. We have come up with solutions to such problems and guide you to overcome issues pertaining to Snapchat notifications or any other related issues:

Log out and Log back

Restarting your Snapchat, one of the popular messaging apps, often solves the issue. Snapchat itself suggests that users facing any issues regarding notifications can recalibrate their Snapchat accounts to get real-time notification settings.

Keep your phone on ring mode

Avoid keeping your phone in silent mode as it affects the Snapchat notification sound. Also, avoid keeping your phone in Do Not Disturb mode as it hampers your phone from receiving banner notifications while the device is locked.

Check the notification setting on Snapchat

Inspect the notification setting if you come across any such problem. Enable the required services if any of them is disabled. Generally, a few services are disabled automatically after an app update. This may cause a notification working error.

Check the notification setting on your phone

Checking the settings of your device also proves useful in such instances. Often it has been found that device users do not enable a few notification settings on their devices due to which such problems arise. However, navigating to these settings may seem slightly different.

Update Snapchat on your device

You need to install the latest Snapchat, one of the popular messaging apps, on your device to get uninterrupted service. These updating issues may hamper the smooth working of Snapchat notifications on your handset.

Often it has been noticed that a lack of software updates affects the optimal working of the social media application. Snapchat releases bug fixes for the smooth functioning of the app. Updating your mobile app enables smooth experiences as well.

Disable and enable the permissions in the Snapchat setting

To solve the Snapchat notification issues you may check the necessary permission to your phone’s resources. If it turns ineffective, you may turn the permission off and again turn them on for better recalibration. It has proved to a number of users several times facing such issues.

Clear the Snapchat App Cache

Removing the Snapchat cache also proves useful under such circumstances. The cache accumulates as you interact with the app and get stored in the internal storage. However low storage in the device can also create such issues and not clearing the cache for a prolonged period invites trouble while using Snapchat as well.

Clear the Snapchat App Data

Often it has been noted that the inessential app data apart from the cache accumulated in the phone causes some inconvenience while using the app. Clearing this data enables Snapchat, one of the popular messaging apps, to collect brand-new data from the servers. However, this does not impact your stored information on the app as everything is safely backed up in the Snapchat servers.

Allow Background Data Usage for Snapchat

Ensure the Snapchat app has internet access to let you know about the notifications. Enabling the related settings helps Snapchat app users connect with its online servers and refresh automatically to get access to the latest notification.

The preferences of professional gamers are just as varied as they are. Because of this, some gamers are adamant about commissioning a bespoke desktop or laptop computer to be built for them so that they may attain the degree of performance, aesthetics, and customisation that is optimal for them.

The good news is that you do not need to be a technological whiz or a specialist in information technology to make it happen. If you master the concepts presented here, you will be able to build a gaming setup that is more effective and less stressful than anything you could buy off the market.

Basic Computer Parts For Gaming

There are many options out there, but the essentials of a gaming PC remain the same, no matter the genre.

There are essential components for a gaming PC and some extras that wouldn’t hurt. To avoid missing a crucial step or blowing your cash on an element you can easily add later, it’s critical to know the difference while learning how to construct a gaming computer.

The advice of gaming professionals is that you incorporate the following components in your custom build:

Processor

More frequently than any other component, the central processing unit (CPU) is highlighted in computer advertisements and livestreams of your favourite gamers on Twitch and YouTube. This is where the PC’s processing power resides, making it the essential part of the machine.

It prioritises the numerous jobs your computer will do, cycles between them, and makes sure you may work on many things at once without interruption.

Memory

RAM, or random access memory, is a kind of storage quickly accessed by the CPU and allows for rapid file retrieval. It plays a similar role as the CPU in preventing the computer from lagging during games.

Many gamers enthusiastically welcome adding 16GB of RAM, while experts advise using at least 8GB. Insufficient memory or processing speed might lead to unsteady computer performance, so choose these settings carefully.

Registers are the computer’s quickest memory. Input any sort of data, including computer instructions, storage addresses, and mathematical calculations, into a specific area of a computer’s CPU. The amount of information stored in a register is indicated by its memory size.

Best RAM model for your PC is Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB DDR4 3600MHz.

Motherboard

As soon as you’ve decided how the inner workings will function, you’ll need to devise a way for them to communicate with one another. This duty falls on the motherboard, which you should replace if necessary. This essential section acts as the gaming computer’s brain, directing the operations of the other components and ensuring that they run smoothly.

Be aware that your computer’s motherboard and central processing unit (CPU) must be compatible for it to work correctly.

Number one on the list of best-selling computer motherboards is the Intel Core i5, a desktop processor with 12 (8P+4E) cores that can reach 5.0 GHz when overclocked and using the Intel 600 Series Chipset.

Graphics

Need the best PC games ever? You’ll need a capable graphics card, then. Along with all the games you’ll be doing, the appropriate card will allow you to view high-definition and 4K videos, edit films and audio, and more.

Knowing the difference between integrated and discrete (or “dedicated”) graphics will help you decide which graphics package is right for you. The separate devices include their processor and a GPU and are required for the most demanding games. Aim for a GPU that can produce 60 FPS or more for regular gaming and 90 FPS or more for VR use.

The RX 6600 is an 8GB graphics card capable of running all AAA games at ultra settings in 1080p at 60-75 frames per second.

Case

Invest in a case that will secure your purchases while making it easy for you to get to them whenever you need to. Make sure that the one you choose has space for growth in the years to come and can manage many upgrades simultaneously.

As an added benefit, you can show your uniqueness via your chosen options, which may range widely and be tailored to your needs. You may create a work of art out of a powerful gaming computer that has a box made of glass by placing LED lights inside of it and employing wires of different colours.

Power

A gaming PC’s performance hinges on the power supply unit (PSU), which is seldom the subject of conversation. Avoid skimping on this seemingly small component. It is job to provide power to your bespoke structure and all its parts. Purchase a reliable PSU if you value the safety of your gaming PC against electrical malfunction.

Cooling System

A separate heatsink fan will be required if your CPU does not come with one. Due to the high temperatures that gaming PCs may reach after prolonged usage, this part is essential. Additionally, it might be an excellent complement to the case fan if one is included.

Which cooling method, air or liquid, you use may be a personal preference. In most cases, the air-cooling system is less expensive and simpler to set up for novice gamers.

Best PC Cooling system is Noctua NH-D15 CPU Cooler.

Storage

Which do you prefer: a hard disc drive (HDD) or a solid-state drive (SSD) for your gaming rig? The decision is up to you, and personal taste may play a role.

The NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) protocol is much more prevalent among gamers than the more common SATA (Serial ATA) standard, and SSDs are the preferred storage medium for games. For the most part, both can respond quickly and have minimal latency (the time it takes for one component to complete before the next can begin) while playing games.

Operating System

The OS abbreviation is often used to refer to the operating system. Many gamers have no problem using Windows-based solutions, and Windows OS provides gamers with more freedom and portability, which is very helpful for students. If the most played games are compatible, any OS will do.

An operating system is a layer that mediates communication between applications and the various components of a computer’s hardware. The operating system is programmed to control the computer, including all of its features and functions.

List Of Components You Need For Your PC

PSU: – Asus ROG Thor 1200W Platinium

As one of the best power supplies available, the Asus ROG Thor 1200W Platinium can run two graphics processing units(GPUs), a motherboard, and more. A programmable OLED power indicator shows how much juice is sent to the motherboard.In addition to built-in ROG heatsinks, it also has RGB lighting and IP5X wing-blade fans.

Also Read: Here is the list of best CPUs you can buy for every Budget !

CPU: – AMD Ryzen 7 5800 X3D

The Ryzen 7 5800 X3D is a top-tier processor designed for extreme gaming and one of AMD’s most excellent CPU offerings. It has a combination of fast cores and 69MB of L3 cache, making it the quickest desktop gaming CPU in the world. As a bonus, it comes with 3D V-Cache technology, which improves the computer’s efficiency while running resource-intensive programs and games.

The Ryzen 7 5800 X3D, which can be purchased for Rs 42,000 on Amazon India, is among the top options for your custom PC build. After the graphics processing unit (GPU), it is the most costly section of a computer, but it also performs the most critical functions.

Monitor: – ViewSonic XG2405

You’ll need a display with many refresh rates and the ability to create plenty of frames per second if you’re making a gaming PC. Regarding gaming monitors, the recently released ViewSonic XG2405, with a refresh rate of 144 hertz, may be your best choice.

You may adjust the screen’s brightness to suit your needs by changing the color temperature and the settings in the on-screen display. The firm has included several game modes from which players may choose based on the kind and genre of game they’re playing.

SSD: – WD Black SN770 and WD BLACK SN850 NVMe SSD

Without sufficient storage, a computer is essentially useless. And what could be better than an SSD? The WD Black SN770 and WD Blue SN570 are two of the best SSDs currently available; you can connect them to the motherboard in a direct connection and benefit from their lightning-fast performance.

Regarding load times, the WD Black SN770 can provide rates of up to 5,150MB/s. However, the WD BLACK SN850 NVMe SSD has a Sequential Read Performance of 3500MB/s, which may make your system perform 5 times faster than standard HHDs.

Motherboard: – Asus TUF Gaming X570-Plus

If you’re looking for a motherboard that supports a high-end CPU and graphics card, go no further than the Asus TUF Gaming X570-Plus. The motherboard has many excellent features, including RGB lighting, Wifi compatibility, slots for a video card and an audio card, and two slots for a graphics processing unit (GPU).

You can link up the thermal status monitor to show the CPU temperature, and the Asus TUF Gaming X570-Plus supports practically everything you might want in a gaming PC.

GPU: – AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT

Compatibility and improved performance are why the AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT is recommended for use with the Ryzen 7 5800 X3D. With its AMD RDNA 2 architecture, the RX 6900 XT is equipped with 80 high-performance upgraded Compute Units.

The 12GB of specialized GDDR6 RAM can shoulder the load of providing ultra-high frame rates and 4K resolution games. Radeon RX 6900 XT prices in India fluctuate between Rs 95,000 to Rs 1,19,000, depending on the original equipment manufacturer. You may also look for it at a local market to save money.

RAM: – 16GB Kingston Fury

It is possible to supply the CPU with the 16GB Kingston Fury 3600MHz CL16 DIMM Fury Renegade RGB RAM stick, and it also has RGB illumination. This RAM stick may also be used to feed the CPU.

PC gamers have a high demand for this RAM since it assures that they will not experience any latency when playing their games if they have it installed on their machines. The total cost from Amazon would be Rs 4,628 since you will need two of the 8GB RAM sticks to complete your purchase.

WiFi Router: – Huawei Wifi AX3

It is impossible to have a good gaming experience without a robust router to maintain a stable internet connection. This is because the vast majority of games are now played online, and gamers choose to save their data in the cloud rather than on their hard drives.

My tests and usage have shown that the AX3 is one of the best models now available and will suit all your gaming needs. The router is compatible with Wi-Fi 6, also known as 802.11ax, which offers many improvements over its predecessor, Wi-Fi 5, and was developed to address the growing need for Wi-Fi that is both quicker and more efficient.

Liquid Cooler: – Asus ROG Ryujin II 360

The Asus ROG Ryujin II, 360 liquid cooler, is up next, and it will keep the processor calm and quiet during gaming or 3D rendering hours. You may pick various animations, pictures, and movies to showcase on your CPU fan, and the display can be tailored to your specific needs.

If you don’t want to spend much on a thermal cooler, you may always go with something less than the Asus ROG Ryujin II 360 (which retails for Rs 21,499).

Conclusion

Although a specialized gaming PC may be the more popular choice, laptops can provide some distinct benefits. A computer’s components are all contained inside the machine, making it difficult to construct one from scratch.

As a direct consequence of this, the majority of first-time builders choose to construct their gaming rigs using desktop PCs. When you buy a gaming laptop, you have considerable discretion in customizing features like the amount of random access memory (RAM) to meet your preferences and requirements.

The Director of ISRO’s Human Space Flight Centre, R Umamaheshwaran divulged details of the Gaganyaan Mission as he informed the space agency’s plan of conducting a series of test flights starting February 2023.

Umamaheshwaran made the revelation while addressing the Indian Space Congress in New Delhi. ISRO plans to deploy the heavy-lift Chinook helicopter along with the C-17 Globemaster transport aircraft for the first test flight. This will be testing the crew module that is supposed to carry the astronauts under the mission.

“Gaganyaan is not an Indian mission but an international programme as it involves collaboration with several countries like Russia, France and Australia for astronaut training and getting components for the mission.” In the space sector, India has around 250 MoUs with more than 61 countries, R Umamaheshwaran added.

As per ISRO’s plan, the agency is gearing for conducting 17 different tests before moving ahead with an unmanned space flight in December 2023.

R Umamaheshwaran also informed the gathering at the event that the agency has already completed the design work for the Environment Control System. This indigenously designed Environment Control System will be responsible for ensuring the astronauts get ambient living conditions during the mission.

R Umamaheshwaran also said that designing the Environment Control System is one of the most crucial phases of the mission. It is this system that will ensure the crew is in proper condition during the re-entry phase also. During re-entry, the outside temperature of the crew module sometimes reaches as high as 2000 degrees Celsius.

While speaking at the event organised by the SatCom Industry Association, R Umamaheshwaran added, “The crew module, where the astronauts are supposed to sit and fly, is completed and the fabrication work is on. Within six months, we will get the crew module.”

“We have to provide oxygen, remove carbon dioxide, remove humidity, maintain temperature and also ensure there is no fire hazard. This is a very complex technology that no country would give us,” he added.
