    XFX Radeon RX 9070 XT Mercury OC Magnetic Air

    Here we go again. It is all bullshit. AMD are not the saviors, they do not give a shit about gamers/enthusiasts. NVIDIA does not give a shit about gamers/enthusiasts. Same story every launch. What bothers me, and it may not bother you, is that these companies built their brands on the backs of...

    AMD Radeon RX 9070-series Pricing Leaks Courtesy of MicroCenter

    They have have had worthy products before, it did not gain them market share. If these cards come in at 700, they have blown it. They have a shot now, it may hurt in the short run, but they will gain share at a 550 real msrp, not 699. 699 with partner cards at a thousand takes away the...

    Quick Look: G.SKILL WigiDash PC Command Panel

    I have one, and I like it. The problem is that there is not much support, it is not really easy to tinker with(not intuitive, for the hardcore crowd) and you have to have aida 64 to get those really cool looking pages as posted above. AIDA 64 crashes my system, and has consistently crashed my...

    Geometric Future Launches Model 5, a Compact Yet Highly Compatible PC Case

    Yes let us please go back to the days of beige! I will say that, even though I prefer certain cases over others, none have ever made me "sick to my stomach." I just buy what I like, which often includes some blinking lights to go along with the flashing lights coming out of the large rectangle...

    Geometric Future Launches Model 5, a Compact Yet Highly Compatible PC Case

    A glass enclosure is the new standard. This is like saying "a new rectangular prism, how can it be innovative...." They found a new way to make any psu look good without having to have a side chamber, keeping it kind of compact. I can also see really short custom cables making this a really...

    Alphacool Unveils Apex Pro Skeleton Carbon Cases

    400 cheaper than a similar sized singularity case that has no pump or distro included. I also think this looks better and it it is not all acrylic like Singularity cases. I would prefer it to be 200 cheaper, but it is better value than...

    Alphacool Presents Apex Series of Cases/Waterblocks and Server ES 2U/4U Solutions

    So, over the course of a year, Alphacool managed to release one "Apex" series product; a low performance, expensive fan. Now we are expected to believe we are going to see these products anytime soon if at all? Try releasing the Apex radiator you've been talking about for two years.

    Intel Xeon 6 "Beechnut City" Validation Platform for Granite Rapids and Sierra Forest Pictured

    Beechnut is a pretty big brand name in the US, but for a different kind of chewing product. https://www.albertsons.com/shop/product-details.133100446.html

    Alphacool at 2024 CES: APEX, Core Full Copper Radiators, Distro-Reservoirs, LT Water Blocks

    All of this apex stuff is great. We have seen it for months previewed on Alphacools site. Release it already.

    EK at CES 2024: Quantum-X NoCase, Velocity² 1700 Special Edition Waterblock, and Other Water Cooling Components

    I think the "no case" looks great, very sleek. I hope it is priced reasonably and does not require proprietary distro plates etc. 200-300 dollars and I am very interested. It will never happen, I know.

    GravaStar Unveils the Mercury M1 Pro and M2 Gaming Mice

    Am I the only one that prefers a heavier mouse? Like well over 100g.

    ASUS Introduces ProArt Computer Cases with the PA602 Chassis

    Seems like the usual plastic rectangular prism. Why does it cost so much? An nv7 seems to be more feature rich at far less of a cost. So $200 premium because it says "pro art" on it?

    NZXT Announces the H6 Flow — A Compact Dual Chamber Mid-Tower ATX Case

    Tempered glass, showcase, thqt doesn't matter to me. Every new case should be an innovative way to show off your hobby, if you do not like it buy a black rectangle. Noone is stopping anyone from buying a black rectangle. My issue with this "new" case is it is derivative and boring. The angle...

    EK Announces EK-QuantumX Loophole Distroplate D5 PWM

    If you have to rout your own custom tubes, and buy the fittings why should this cost over $200 more than a vanilla flt? Extra holes are free.

    HYTE Y70 Touch

    $160 premium for a built in display seems expensive. Should be $250.
