In this review I’ll be looking at what might be considered the next best thing and is what I would call a revision enhancement of their previous Z390 that improves and tunes the motherboard for extreme overclocking while still offering out of box performance for fans of high-end hardware.
In this review I’ll be going over the Mushkin Pilot. The Pilot is one of two new NVMe based M.2 drives from Mushkin. The drive featured in this review is the 1TB version (MKNSSDPL1TB-D8) and features 3D TLC and is backed by a Silicon Motion SM2262
In this review I’ll be showing you the Plantronics RIG 800LX. This is a wireless gaming headset that is built on the Plantronics RIG platform. It shares many features with the RIG 400LX that I reviewed last year. The box heavily suggest that this is an Xbox One gaming headset however, it also works just fine on a Windows PC.
If you are looking for a good light weigh in-ear setup 1More spearhead headphones are a fantastic step-up. Controls are intuitive and the lighting effect looks sharp. They disappear into the background leaving you with a pure audio experience that punches well above their weight class.
Arguably, one of the most well known names in cooling is Noctua. Over the years their designs have been used for a variety of things from high-end overclocking, small form factor cooling, watercooling, fan upgrades and happens to be the premier brand when it comes to silence.
After about 20 hours of holiday gaming I am a believer. I don’t know when the V765 will get bumped back to the shelf as Patriot has really hit the sweet spot with the Viper 765. It looks great, performs great and won’t break the bank.
In this review we looked at the Zotac RTX 2080 AMP Extreme graphics card. This is the highest end card Zotac offers using the RTX 2080 and is built to perform. Out of the box the card comes factory overclocked (hot clocked) at 1905Mhz making it one of the fastest cards on the market
In this review I’ll be showing you the MSI MEG Z390 ACE. This board shares many of the design cues found on the X399 Creation but is built on the Intel Z390 chipset for LGA 115x 8000 and 9000 series processors. Position wise, it is one step down from the MEG Z390 Godlike and really designed to do more than just game
A modded case should be a source of pride if not a show piece on its own. After all a good enthusiast level build can be one of the most expensive investments we make!
Overall I am rather impressed with the Sound BlasterX G6 as I regularly use an external sound card when attending LAN Parties. Having the external headphone DAC is a great way to get great 7.1 sounds for my Creative BlasterX H5 gaming headset.
