In this review we will be looking at the Z690 Aorus Elite AX DDR4. This motherboard not only supports Alder Lake and the LGA 1700 socket but offers compatibility for DDR4 memory modules along with the features of the Z690 chipset.
In this review we will be looking at the B660M Aorus Pro AX DDR4. This motherboard not only supports Alder Lake and the LGA 1700 socket but offers compatibility for DDR4 memory modules along with the features of the B660 chipset while packaged in the smaller Micro ATX form factor
From a performance standpoint I found the STRIX B660-I to have an amazing out of box experience and operated with both 4800Mhz and 6200Mhz DDR5 memory without fail and responded well to basic memory tweaks and overclocks. Unfortunately, ASUS did not enable K level overclocking or BLCK tweaks.
The Cooler Master XG850 Plus Platinum Power Supply offers the best of both worlds with an 80Plus Platinum Rating for best in class power efficiency while the 850w level hits a sweet spot for power consumption in most common builds
In this review we will be looking at the ARES DDR5 Desktop memory from Lexar. These modules are available in dual channel memory kits with a total capacity of 32GB. If you happen to be part of the growing movement against RGB lighting you will be humbled to know that the ARES DDR5 modules are currently RGB adverse and feature a very conservative yet stylish heatspreader design.
One of the great things about high-speed memory is the ability to tweak and tune the modules to suite your system. While our Viper Venom modules ran perfectly at 6200Mhz that speed could be easily increased with a minor timing change and voltage bump.
I can easily recommend the Cooler Master’s CK721 65% Hybrid Wireless Gaming Keyboard as an attractive and functional 65% design. The CK721 goes above and beyond similar designs by offering both wired and wireless functionality at a price normally reserved for simple wired designs.
In this review I’ll be showing you the Gigabyte Ultra Durable 850W PSU (UD850GM). Now, you might be saying to yourself. Gigabyte? Isn’t that a motherboard maker? and you would be right. They make some of the best motherboards you can buy along with many other components for your PC.
The MG510 comes in the classic black with a light blue accent that is shared across all of the DeepCool products. I think the blue color looks very similar to the ever-popular Tiffany Blue! It’s a subtle accent that looks much better in person.
The AK612 is a pretty basic heatsink that has been refined to be very stylish cooler. You will find an interesting pattern along the edges of the heatsink towers and the decorative plates across the top are a welcome addition in keeping your systems clean.
