For one of the best 3D printer deals, head straight to Amazon. As one of its limited time deals, you can buy the Anycubic 12K Resin Photon Mono M5s 3D printer for $300 reduced from $480. It’s nice to see a 38% discount on a printer from a reputable brand. As it’s a limited time deal, you’ll need to be quick to avoid missing out. Here’s everything you need to know before you buy.

Why you should buy the Anycubic 12K Resin Photon Mono M5s 3D printer

Sure to appeal to anyone looking for one of the best 3D printers under $500, the Anycubic 12K Resin Photon Mono M5s 3D printer is a great bet for anyone checking out 3D printing. It’s the first consumer grade resin 3D printer without levelling. While printing, a mechanical sensor on its cantilever arm detects the alignment between the printing platform and the floating levelling module before automatically adjusting as needed.

It has an HD resolution of 11520 x 5120 and a high contrast ratio of 480:1, so you get an XY accuracy of 19 x 24 micro, leading to highly precise results. Combined with Anycubic high-speed resin, the Anycubic 12K Resin Photon Mono M5s 3D printer is able to reach an average speed of 105mm an hour. Alongside those core figures, the Anycubic 12K Resin Photon Mono M5s 3D printer also has a 10.1-inch 12K LCD screen. You can check the exposure screen, mechanical detection module, motor operation status, and resin allowance before printing. There’s also an Intelligent Mode which matches exposure parameters based on model details and size, with the new support algorithm enhancing the printing stability and success rate.

With so many convenient features, the Anycubic 12K Resin Photon Mono M5s 3D printer is sure to be one of the best 3D printers for many scenarios. It usually costs $480, but as one of Amazon’s limited time deals it’s down to $300 for a brief time right now. The 38% saving of $180 won’t be around for long, so take a look at it quickly before you miss out.

Here’s why some PC gamers shouldn’t install the latest Windows 11 update
Overwatch 2 running on the LG OLED 27 gaming monitor.

The latest Windows 11 update, codenamed 24H2, has been a troubled rollout for Microsoft, but one thing's been clear from the beginning: PC gamers should wait to install it. Let's add another issue to the list, shall we?

As spotted by Windows Latest, Microsoft has confirmed in an update to its Windows 11 24H2 problems page, that Windows 11 24H2 is causing issues with its Auto HDR feature. The result of the bug is that incorrect colors are being displayed or, even worse, are breaking games entirely and causing them to not be responsive.

Someone just got the Intel B570 GPU a month in advance — and it works
ASRock's Arc B570 Challenger GPU.

Although Intel's Arc B580 is already here, the B570 is only set to launch on January 16. However, a German retailer listed the card well ahead of time and, surprisingly, one B570 actually shipped to a customer. The B580 is one of the best graphics cards for budget-conscious gamers, but how will the B570 compare?

Early listings and preorders happen shockingly often. For example, yesterday we found an RTX 5090 PC priced at well over $6,000. However, those listings often don't amount to much, and the items don't ship until their designated release dates -- but not this time.

We might get a new Steam Deck next month — and Valve isn’t making it

I expected to see some new handheld gaming PCs this year at CES, but it looks like something even more exciting is in store. AMD and Lenovo are hosting an event during the week of the show, and it'll have two special guests in attendance: Valve's Pierre-Loup Griffais and Microsoft's Jason Ronald.

I'll be attending the event on January 7, about which Sean Hollister over at The Verge initially shared out the details. There are a couple of reasons why this event could be significant. First, Valve. Since the launch of the Asus ROG Ally, there have been a handful of these types of events featuring spokespeople from AMD, Microsoft, and the company making a handheld -- Lenovo or Asus. Valve hasn't ever been in attendance, and considering Valve makes the Linux-based Steam Deck, it would be odd for the company to have a presence.
