digitec Podcast Episode 17: AMD RX 6000, Xbox Series S/X, "Watch Dogs Legion"

AMD gives Intel and Nvidia a run for their money. HDMI 2.1 bugs plague AV receivers. The Pixel 5 convinces despite compromises and we tested the Xbox Series S. Find out why not the Series X in the podcast.
The Trio Infernale is back together again. I'm back from paternity leave and have a lot to report. From the Pixel 5 test to the new Xbox Series S/X to the open-world hacker adventure "Watch Dogs Legion", all fronts are covered. Meanwhile, Simon raves about the HBO series "I may destroy you" and Luca keeps us up to date with big screen news. The main topic, however, is AMD's new graphics cards, which could give Nvidia a run for its money.
Contrary to what we said in the podcast, the video recording didn't work out after all. Some whistleblower (me) forgot to press the record button. At least you'll be spared my sweat stains ;).

Being the game and gadget geek that I am, working at digitec and Galaxus makes me feel like a kid in a candy shop – but it does take its toll on my wallet. I enjoy tinkering with my PC in Tim Taylor fashion and talking about games on my podcast http://www.onemorelevel.ch. To satisfy my need for speed, I get on my full suspension mountain bike and set out to find some nice trails. My thirst for culture is quenched by deep conversations over a couple of cold ones at the mostly frustrating games of FC Winterthur.
