In this review we will be looking at the Aorus X870E Elite X3D Ice motherboard. This board features an AMD X870E chipset supporting AM5 processors and comes with the X3D refresh features and the extremely swank ICE color combo.
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. This board offers premium aesthetics with sleek black metal covers and heatsinks with polished gold accents to evoke a sense of prestige.
In this review we will be looking at the Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD5 which is a mid-level motherboard supporting the latest AM3+ processors. As the name indicates the board is based on the new AMD 990FX chipset. The new chipset is designed to support the new AMD FX "bulldozer" processors along with NVidia SLI.
In this review we will be looking at the Phantom Case from NZXT. This chassis is part of the Crafted Series designed for high performance cooling and expandability. The case comes in one of three color combinations, White, Black and Red with each case featuring black accent pieces that cover the fans and complement the overall design.
The Aivia M8600 Wireless Macro Gaming Mouse is absolutely riddled with features. During testing I found the responsiveness the best I have ever experienced. This is the first mouse I had to dial down from max resolution for gaming. The software is clean and easy to use making regular tasks smooth and macro programming as simple as I have seen.
One of the first motherboards we received after the Sandy Bridge launch the Gigabyte P67A-UD7 and we almost instantly fell in love with the board. Sadly were we unable to get the review posted before the worldwide chipset recall but we did spend a considerable amount of time tweaking and tuning the board and even posted some very impressive numbers for the HWBot team.
High performance cooling has come a long way over the years and while most people associate aftermarket cooling options with overclocking that isn't always the case. Some coolers may be best suited as high capacity alternatives to the cheap and unattractive OEM designs.
The Thermaltake A30 is clearly targeted at gamers if not LAN party enthusiasts directly. The all black SFF design does little to hide the modular chassis' ability to hold a full size build with only the micro/mini ATX motherboard limiting the options.
