In this review we looked at the Noctua NH-D15 G2 chromax.black. This is a chromax.black edition of the popular NH-D15 complete with a black surface finish, chromax.black NF-A14x25 G2 fans. This popular variant has been powering high performance gaming builds for over 15 years. Systems have changed a lot since then making the occasional upgrade and revision a welcome change.
In this review we took a look at a new AIO cooler from Levelplay called the Combat Liquid 360HUD. This is a very interesting AIO in that its not your typical ARGB LCD screen cooler but rather a nicely assembled AIO with just the right amount of feature and performance to be good.
In this review we will be looking at the MSI MEG X870E ACE Max gaming motherboard. The MSI MEG line of motherboards are the highest tier product in each segment offering the most features and the promise for better performance.

The be quiet! Dark Perk Ergo is a strong debut into the light weight, wireless gaming mouse arena. While it doesn’t scream for attention with RGB bling, it does offer pure performance in gameplay. Both comfortable and responsive, this is a compelling choice for anyone seeking an uncompromised wireless gaming mouse.
In this mini review we are looking at the new NZXT Aperture M multi media panel that features a USB based card reader and two native USB 3.0 ports. The Aperture M fits in any 5.25" drive bay and will connect directly to your motherboard using motherboard header plugs.
As hardware enthusiasts we are always looking for better and more efficient ways to keep our systems cool. In the early days this usually included things like elaborate case mods to increase chassis cooling and exotic hardware cooling methods such as powerful CPU fans and even, the often mis-understood, watercooling loops.
In this review we looked at a new cooler from Arctic called the Freezer Xtreme Rev2. The cooler appears to be designed to provide a good cooling base over a stock cooler and yet remain relatively silent under full load operation. This saves on fan noise, and to a lesser degree power.
Sandy Bridge, and now Ivy Bridge, has helped to define a new style of enthusiast system by providing top end performance for a fraction of cost. Another benefit is lower overall power consumption, and let's face it enthusiast systems aren't running 100% all the time so why not save some power in the process.
In this review we will be looking at a new gaming system build from Cyberpower PC called the Gamer Xtreme 2000 SE. This is an Ivy Bridge based system designed to be an inexpensive and yet powerful gaming PC with a total price tag around $1200US.
The Gigabyte GV-N670OC-GD2 has many things going for it starting with the new GTX 670 GPU. This may be a cut down version of the GTX 680 but it has plenty of power for most games and some to spare in others. Most of that power comes from the impressive factory overclock which was due, in part, to the custom designed PCB and Windforce thermal solution.
