    Netac NV7000 2 TB M.2 NVMe SSD

    can the article be updated to show the bait and switch that Netac pulled? retail models don't have Phison E18/Micron, instead they ship with Innogrit IG5236 and YTMC 128L 512gbit 3D TLC. it's still a good SSD if the price is right and you buy from a store with a warranty, in CIS countries it's...

    GALAX RTX 4090 "Ada" Custom Design Leaked

    this is the ugliest card I've ever seen. this top fan sticks out like a blister. it looks worse than GTX 680 SOC with it's tiny server fans. it would be somewhat ok if you could remove the fan and unscrew it's bezel like a bottle cap if it doesn't add much to cooling and the card won't cook...

    Intel Core i9-12900KS

    "It's irresponsible performance" © btw, how did 6700k snuck up in there? it's $240 to boot, I recently sold mine for $120.

    Lian Li O11 AIR MINI

    curious airflow setup they got on the site. do they mean this as a definitive guide to get maximum flow or just an example of all slots populated? i don't see much reason in these side 120mm slots unless an AIO is mounted there. the way they show it the side fans will just exhaust cool air from...

    AMD FSR FidelityFX Super Resolution Quality & Performance

    pretty cool. i wish they'd make something like xBRZ x2/x3/x4 option available in control panel for all games.

    SilverStone RM42-502

    looks like they repurposed early 2000s tower cases with those 80mm rear fans and top-mounted PSU.

    Aqua Computer LEAKSHIELD

    i wonder why that water-cooling system for a bank they were building couldn't just use a non-conductive coolant? and why those coolants aren't being used in the DIY space and in AIOs? are they stupidly expensive?

    NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Founders Edition

    yeah, history is repeating itself once again. i think most know by now that Nvidia (and AMD to a lesser extent) cards released at the start of the new console cycle age like carton wine: Kepler was the prime example. developers never make games for "those who didn't upgrade in time", they...

    Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2: Benchmark Test & Performance

    it seems they can fix it only on game-by-game basis, Kingdom Come is ok now. i wonder if DXVK helps with others.

    NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Founders Edition

    such a wasted, pointless and short-lived GPU generation all around, and I thought Fermi was bad.

    NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Founders Edition

    The first phase was release and relatively quick sold out everywhere on normal operations. The second phase was AIBs only making the highest tier cards. Only the FTW Xtreme Suprim top end available and none of the lower end ones. So, 3090 only and no 3080. Only 3070 and no 3060Ti, etc. The...

    Acer Predator Talos DDR4-3600 MHz CL18 4x8 GB

    would make sense if it was cheap, but CL16 Ballistix costs less. especially since Acer doesn't offer anything worthy in terms of style and this logo is straight up gaudy.
