AMD's RDNA 4 lineup promised to deliver great gaming performance, a great set of features, and great value. The company has achieved these objectives with the 9070 and 9060 series, which is a big turnaround for Team Red. The sales have been strong, and today, we look at one of the strongest models based on the RX 9070 XT. So, for today's review, we will be trying out the ASRock Radeon RX 9070 XT Taichi OC, which has an MSRP of $849.99 US. This is a $350 US premium over the $599.99 MSRP, which is expected given the supply and […]

Beelink was established in 2011 & is regarded as one of the top sellers in the Mini PC category at Amazon. The company has a diverse portfolio of Mini PCs, Players, and gadgets, but the core focus is on the Mini PC segment, which includes both Intel and AMD options. While we have looked at several of Beelink's Mini PC options in the past, ranging from AMD & Intel CPUs, the company has introduced a new Intel model recently, the SEi13 Pro, which features the Intel Core i9-13900HK CPU along with strong specifications. The Mini PC also has some exclusive […]

We have covered a range of Mini PCs in the last couple of years featuring the latest and greatest solutions from each CPU vendor. While we have seen some incredibly powerful options that cost premium, Geekom has now announced a 2025 version of its popular IT13 Mini PC which has been upgraded with the Core i9-13900HK.

The DDR5 memory segment has been seeing a lot of action as it gets standardized across all PC platforms. With memory prices dropping and the latest platforms becoming affordable, memory makers are offering new solutions constantly.

Since the arrival of DDR4 memory in the mainstream market, TeamGroup started a separate line of DIMM kits under their new T-Force brand. The T-Force brand is the more enthusiast and gamer-aimed memory series with a sheer focus on quality and performance. More recently, the company started rolling out its […]

Back in 2023, T-Force by TeamGroup, introduced its first Gen5 SSD solution, the CARDEA Z540. Based on the Phison E26 controller, this SSD offered up to 12.4 GB/s speeds, making it a solid option back then.

It's been two years since the AMD AM5 motherboard platform and the 600-series motherboards launched. Since its launch, the platform has seen the launch of several CPUs in the Ryzen 7000, Ryzen 8000, and Ryzen 9000 families. While the 600-series motherboards provide great features & compatibility with newer Zen 5 CPUs, motherboard makers are always looking to enhance user experiences through the latest technologies, so AMD has introduced a new chipset line called the 800-series. Now, AMD has introduced both X870 and B850 series chipsets for high-end and mainstream AM5 motherboards. Both of these chips provide brand-new designs and brand-new […]

Well, I haven't reviewed laptops in a while now, especially the type of laptops that are on my desk right now. There's a company in the market called "X-Plus" that offers portable hardware in "very unique" form factors, whether it is handhelds, laptops, or mini-PCs. We have reviewed the company's GSeries1 gaming handheld in the past, which was basically an Intel N100 unit with a massive IPS screen slapped right onto it. This time, the company was kind enough to send their "2-in-1" laptop, called the Piccolo Series81, and upon the first-look, the first thought that came into my mind […]

Having a dedicated home theatre may not be feasible for everyone, particularly when factors like space, cost, and installation make it challenging. The Dangbei N2 Mini might change your mind, especially if you want to mitigate all those challenges to a great extent. The N2 Mini is just a compact version of the Dangbei N2, and while it does downgrade some of the specs, many of the features remain on the Mini version. If you are someone who wants a compact home theatre system at an affordable price, then the N2 Mini might be a compelling option. But before you […]

It's been two years since the launch of the Crucial T700, the company's fastest Gen5 SSD. Delivering up to 12.4 GB/s speeds, the T700 was phenomenal throughout our tests, and leveraged Phison's E28 controller. The company also introduced its follow-up, the T705, which features up to 14.5 GB/s speeds. Now, Crucial is unveiling its new flagship product, The T710, which pushes things up to the next level, and leverages Silicon Motion's SM2508 controller alongside Micron's G9 NAND Flash.

Gamesir is one of the renowned companies offering an extensive portfolio of portable gaming products. One of their specialties is gaming controllers, especially the wireless ones. We have extensively reviewed several of their models in the past, but the SuperNova most likely exceeds them all, not just in the connectivity experience but also in the user-friendliness. Gamesir was kind enough to provide us with a review unit of the SuperNova controller. Compared to its "presumed" predecessor, the Cyclone 2, the company has integrated several new additions, including swappable faceplates, multi-platform connectivity, and much more, which we'll discuss. Here's an extensive […]

Popular mouse manufacturers are racing to deliver the best possible sensor, ergonomics, and customizability for gaming, but Ragnok has different plans. Instead of competing in the same category, the company is thinking out of the box to offer more "immersive" gaming experiences. After releasing its first gun-mouse, the FireGrip, the company has debuted a brand new gaming mouse called "ErgoStrike 7", which is drastically different from the previous one. Not only does it resemble an actual gun, but it also offers much more than the FireGrip. In this post, we will go through the specs, features, and performance of the […]

When I first saw that Sifu developer Sloclap would be shifting gears to make a football game with Rematch, I would be lying if I didn't say I was a little disappointed. I like football and sports games well enough. I don't necessarily play EA Sports FC every year, but I've always liked hitting the pitch with my friends, and getting between the posts to make some killer saves, since my preferred position is playing goalie. I loved Sifu when it released in 2022. It was one of my favorite games that year because of how mechanically tight the gameplay […]

Gen5 SSDs have been out for a good while now, and they still haven't managed to capture the attention of mainstream audiences. The standard, despite seeing significant drops in prices & supply getting much better, these products are still positioned in the enthusiast category, and manufacturers are trying to promote their storage solutions with some innovative ideas, which mostly involve cooling solutions. Although companies like Phison, Silicon Motion, InnoGrit, and the rest and trying their best to offer the best possible speeds at the best possible thermals and power envelopes, Gen5 SSDs are still a hot solution.

Since the Souls series formula has become popular among players, countless games have tried to recapture what makes FromSoftware's hardcore action role-playing games so engaging, but only a few have managed to even get close. Among these is NEOWIZ and Round8 Studio's Lies of P, which still stands, a few years since its release, as the game that got the closest to recapturing the haunting atmosphere of the beloved Bloodborne. Launching almost two years after the base game's release, the Lies of P: Overture DLC promised, before its release, to provide more of the same solid experience players have been […]

While not a smash hit, the 2021 EA Originals release Lost in Random has earned a modest yet dedicated fanbase thanks to its memorable Tim-Burton-meets-Double-Fine setting and unique combat system that incorporates cards, dice rolls, and other board-gamey elements. In the years since its release, the main creative minds behind Lost in Random went their own way, recently releasing a rather charming little horror game called The Midnight Walk, while original Lost in Random developer Zoink (now merged with another studio and rebranded as Stormteller Games) have opted to take the series in a new direction.

Nintendo don't release new consoles often, and when they do, it's big news. This is particularly true in the home console market, rather than pure handheld, though the Switch did bridge that gap in what was an interesting move then. Of course, Nintendo aren't always successful; see the Wii U. Often, they like to try something new, rarely going for "more powerful". Following the Wii's overwhelming success, the Wii U's flop, and the Switch's world-beating figures, I can't necessarily blame them for just going for "the same but better". This brings us to the Nintendo Switch 2, which I can […]
