Streaming games! It's what everyone's talking about, even my mum. Well, maybe not, but she did post a picture on Facebook of a stream that she took on a countryside walk with the family dog. That stream was streaming water. Close enough, I reckon. And I'm sure she'd be fascinated by Nvidia's list of GameStream ready PCs and wireless routers, which was recently unveiled.

One of the coolest - and weirdest - things to appear at CES has to be Razer's new modular gaming PC, Project Christie. It's only a concept right now, though a working, tangible one, but it's already looking stunning and a bit of a dream for people who hate faffing about when upgrading their desktop.
It's beautiful and understated, and strikingly simple, at least on the surface. There's a bay station, which just looks like a single, thick strip that surrounds all the modules, and upgrading the desktop just requires you to plug a new unit into it, connected to the bay through Razer's proprietary interface. Simple as that.
All the modules are mineral oil cooled, so it's as quiet as death, and the quick release fittings mean that you can just swap modules easily, upgrading from a single GPU to SLI in a matter of seconds. It's like something out of Star Trek, if Star Trek wasn't really dated.

A post on the DayZ dev blog from Bohemia Interactive's Marek Spanel confirmed the long wait we have ahead of us until the Early Access title reaches beta, which is almost a year away. "[W]e do not expect to reach Beta status sooner than the end of 2014."
Its alpha status hasn't put many people off, however, as Dean "Rocket" Hall revealed that 800,000 copies of the game had been sold in less than a month on the weekend, a figure that has continued to increase dramatically since then. Spanel notes that over 875,000 copies have now been sold.
