    NZXT H5 Flow

    Benchmarks results have shown that having the angled duct were in some cases performed comparably to a 3x120 front intake case. The problem with the H5 Flow is it pretty much blocked another major area where the angled fan could've pulled in more air for the GPU If they also had that part...

    NZXT H5 Flow

    Slapping an angled fan in the bottom chamber to make up for poor thermal design isn't really innovation lmao. Idk why NZXT is so hell bent on making really poor thermally designed cases.

    USB Type-C to Become Mandatory Charging Port in the European Union

    tbf tho lightning is just crap compared to modern USB-C speeds specially now that Apple has ProRes video recording on their phones. Transferring 4k videos thru usb 2.0 speeds are a pain. unless Apple designs a better port than USB-C then I see no problem with them changing to USB-C. And...

    Fractal Design Meshify 2 Lite RGB

    I was originally on a Meshify Compact (The 1st one) and because the Top Rad clearance was really bad, I had to switch. My main gripe with the O11D Mini is that the glass panels are kinda a pain to take off since you gotta remove the top panel 1st before you can remove both of them. Not really a...

    I'd love to see this in a Compact version. Might be the case that'll replace my 011D mini

    Elden Ring Benchmark Test & Performance Analysis

    I'm around 20 hrs in and really so far I'm in love with the game. A lot of people do get intimidated that suddenly the game throws you in without any guidance, but that for me is one of its strongest points. A lot of open world games nowadays is simply just "talk to X NPC, go to map marker, kill...

    Logitech Announces Pink Version of G Pro X Superlight Wireless Gaming Mouse

    My only main gripe here is that Logitech didn't even bother upgrade the micro USB port to usb-c. kinda sucks tho since the G303 Shroud already had the usb-c port

    Currently daily-ing Boba u4t's on my Gmmk Pro and I love the tactility these switches give. Thouigh I got the 68g version and it gets tiring after a bit. Had to swap them out to some Feker 67g two-stage springs and remove all lube and now they're tactile af. Yea that's my gripe with budget...

    Genesis Unveils the Irid 505 White ARGB Case

    TBF This case came out before the Corsair 4000X and 5000X (Around Mid 2019 iirc). Here in SEA its known as the Tecware Alpha TG. https://www.tecware.co/alphatg There is an mATX version, https://www.tecware.co/alpham but I'm not so sure what it'll be called there in the west. I personally owned...

    ASUS Announces ROG Chakram X Wireless Gaming Mouse at CES 2022

    As much as I complain that Asus has been charging a bit too much for their products, I gotta give credit for them for trying out new stuff. The replaceable mouse switches are something I wish more mice manufacturers would do especially nowadays where people now know that there are mouse switches...

    Leaked Document Confirms That MSI GeForce RTX 3090 Ti SUPRIM X Graphics Card Launches January 27th

    Honestly power consumption is one of my biggest factors when it comes to my PCs. As much as possible I undervolt anything to help keep my bill down. It's why in the future if things go like this I might not buy an 80 series card anymore just because they keep pushing up the power consumption

    SAPPHIRE Announces NITRO+ S360-A and S240-A All-in-One Liquid CPU Coolers

    Yea really only a few notable OEMs like Coolit (Corsair AIOs), EK, and Enermax are pretty much the only options we got for AIO thanks to Asetek patenting the damn thing

    NVIDIA RTX 3050 Could Arrive With 4 GB & 8 GB Memory Variants

    I don't really see the point of a 4gb model in 2021 especially now that we're seeing 1440p as one of the more common resolutions. A 6Gb model I would understand a little more, but imo 8gb should now be the defacto standard for GPU memory size. Performance wise I hope i performs somewhere near a...

    Your PC ATM

    Had a relatively beefy upgrade for the holidays. Really loving the performance but I'm not really happy with the thermals. I'm still learning how to properly UV the 5800x and the 3080 ti so here's to figuring it all out

    Phanteks Announces Black Glacier One 240/280/360MP Halo AIO CPU Coolers

    I have the AIO installed on my system and the Pump block cover (the one with the RGB effect) is completely optional. It attaches with a magnet so you have a choice between just having a pump or use the RGB cover. There is already one. The Glacier T30. The only downside with the T30 is that it's...
