Gigabyte invited myself and a handful of other tech journalists to attend the AORUS Z790 X Media event in San Diego which they called “Fast Track to Gen X – Speed Simplified”. This event served as a formal announcement for the Z790 X line of motherboards and might be one of the most exciting product refreshes I have ever seen.
I started building a Baby AT Slot 1 build and was concerned that I was getting the best performance. To settle the concern I set out to test four Baby AT Slot 1 motherboards across a variety of processors. What really amazed me is how good the memory controller really was on the 440BX compared to the competition at the time.
The Double Sub Subwoofer enclosure build continues and in this article we are covering the assembly and finishing of the final design complete with wood veneer, black stain and clear coat.

For the most part you won’t find the latest in computer components at CES, that is unless you know where to look.

The Double Sub project was suffering from port noise called "Chuffing" and to solve this I 3D Printed a custom port and matching flange.
