SilverStone surprised us all with this retro inspired computer case is quite amazing and extremely bold. The first thing you will notice is the unassuming beige that was common in the early PC era starting with the original IBM PCs and then carried forward for over twenty years. This case is built on the success of the FLP-01 and is proving to be even better.
It would seem that LCD is the new ARGB and Thermaltake is jumping in with booth feet to create the Minecube AIO. This quad screen LCD is used to decorate an otherwise simple AIO with LCDs that can be daisy chained together or operated independently.
at Computex 2025 ASUS announced the ROG Crosshair X870 Extreme following in a long tradition of offering the highest end motherboards to the best platforms which now include a full LCD screen.
Several memory makers were showing off multi module high-capacity builds and TeamGroup was one of the few to offer both ultra-fast modules and kits to support ultra-high capacities. This is one of the biggest challenges with modern system builds and TeamGroup seems to have figured it out.
During Computex 2025 MSI was showing a new MPower motherboard based on the B850 chipset and built with a Micro ATX form factor. The board features a single PCI Express Gen5 video card slot and two M.2 drive locations. To aid in memory overlocking the board is limited to only two memory slots and features a monster of a VRM to ensure accurate power delivery and hopefully break some records.
Silverstone was showing the next generation of Raven chassis designs including the new Raven 5 and Raven RZ01.
The most exciting development is the new EVGA TORQ X10 gaming mouse. This is an ambidextrous design that will come in a variety of different configurations including one with carbon fiber.

In the days of Ninjalane I would post a thread in the forums about what new things I had planned for the coming year and figured it would be a good idea to continue the tradition.
Longtime hardware enthusiast will remember the Raven 2 as one of the premier aircooling cases designed to provide the best cooling for the most extreme systems.
I recently reviewed the iVektor from Enermax and quickly realized that the case would be perfect for a color change mod similar to what I did with the Level 10 GT.
