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.
The computer featured in this video falls into this category. This is a 486 33Mhz mid tower that was clearly a living computer having many upgrades installed over its lifetime. I tear into the build to find the hidden gems and try to figure out what it was used for.
There is something synonymous between floppy drives and retro computing and while most of you may associate a floppy disk with a save icon they are still a key element in getting any Retro system running.
This Vintage shipping fail is brought to you by why you should always pack items correctly. When I bought this PC the listing said it came with the original box. Which is not liberty to "ship" it in the original box.
For those of us wanting to mess around with old hardware it is important to check your hardware for issues including old barrel style batteries. I picked up this board on eBay and while the battery didn't explode or damage the board it had started to leak. With a soldering iron it is pretty easy to fix.
As a PC Hardware Enthusiast I can get excited at just about anything. Turns out my playing Quake 1 on a Pentium Pro sparked a "retro kick" that brought me to RE-PC in Seattle to get some hard to find parts.
One thing I love about doing computer hardware review is being able to test some of the latest and greatest computer hardware on the market and wouldn't you know it, some of that gear stuck around.
