Hardcore gamers who want to increase their gaming performance probably need a good dose of electric current passing through their brains.  Straight from comic books, see how this latest gizmo could excite your brain.

b3d7d focus headset official Fo.cus Headset Excites Your Brain, Shipping Date on Q3

Michael Oxley claims that his latest headset creation called Fo.cus could help gamers improve their brain performance, and therefore their gaming abilities, by applying a process called transcranial direct-current simulation (tDCS). It’s a form of neurostimulation that is used for patients who suffer from brain injuries caused by strokes. Normal individuals could also employ tDCS, although unapproved by the FDA, to improve cognitive performance.

Fo.cus utilizes four copper electrodes that passes low-intensity current on a strategic area of your brain – the prefrontal cortex. Each node is equipped with saline-soaked sponges to prevent your skin from burning while it is on your forehead. The idea isn’t to let it sit on your head for the entire day to see reap the benefits. Around 5 to 10 minutes of use per day is all you need to improve your working and short-term memory.

Although the results may vary from each user, its creator remains optimistic that many users will see the benefit from long-term use. If you think this gizmo could help your everyday gaming activity and lifestyle, the Fo.cus headset will be available starting July in the US and the UK for quite a hefty price of $ 249 in the US and £179.

US-based consumer electronics supplier Dell has unveiled its latest all-in-one desktop PC that caters to users who wish to have a working station with big touchscreen display minus the bulk of traditional desktop PCs.

The new Dell XPS 18 is equipped with a huge 18.4-inch touch screen display with full-HD resolution (1080p) and will be offered in three different variants. Looking closely inside, it is powered by Intel processor ranging from the cheapest Intel Pentium 2117U processor (with 1.8GHz, 2M cache) to Ivy Bridge Core i3-3227U (1.9GHz, 3M cache) or if you prefer a more high-end variant, the Core i5-3337U (2.7GHz 3M cache).

The starting level has the following specs: Intel HD Graphics 4000, 4GB DDR3 RAM, 320GB SATA HDD, WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0, Windows 8 64-bit, wireless keyboard and mouse and pre-loaded McAfee anti-virus (trial version). The higher-end models differ only in terms of processor and RAM (the second tier offers 4GB while the highest offers 8GB). All models weighs 4.85lbs which is a tad heavy for the ladies specially if they want to carry it around the house. Of course, it still depends on individual preferences.

Interested customers can now pre-order the XPS 18 AIO PC at Dell’s website. The desktop models cost $ 900, $ 1000 and $ 1349, respectively and are expected to ship by next month.

It will retain iPhone 5’s 4-inch display and will be on 2-year contract at $ 0 pricing with a carrier. The specs highlight a mixture of the iPhone 5 with the iPod touch especially the fibreglass and plastic chassis, the 130g weight, the 8.2mm thickness, and availability in six colors. To recall, iPhone 5 has a thinner casing without sacrificing on overall quality.

This time the 5S focus innovation or improvement on the optics, an improved camera with the added “Smart Flash system”. The timing on both release and spec takes a similar path of iPhone 4S. While upcoming product updates of Apple are becoming clearer with the summer approaching especially with rumoured iPad , an iPhone 5S going on the loose has been expected based on the timeline and experience with the previous iPhone devices.
