In this review we looked at the SilverStone FARA 514X High Airflow computer case. While “high airflow” seems to be the flavor of the week the concept is not without merit. As computer systems start to consume more power they will begin to generate considerable heat. This can impact gaming performance and the lifespan of many components including mechanical fans, SSDs and even the motherboard.
In this review we will be looking at the AORUS X870 WiFi 7 Elite from Gigabyte. This is a X870 AM5 enabled motherboard using all of the latest technology and features from AORUS to not only extract some amazing performance but enhance the support and strength of the entire motherboard.
In this review we will be looking at the ASUS ROG Crosshair X870E Hero motherboard. This is a flagship board offering from ASUS built on the X870 chipset supporting all of the latest technology including the new Ryzen 9000 series Granite Ridge processors.
The Majority Naga 80 is the second sound bar in the Naga line and provides 140w of power. While the Naga 80 is marketed as a more traditional sound bar, it still has plenty of features to go with your home PC or wall mounted television.
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 new SETA H1 from SilverStone. The SETA H1 is a sister case to the SETA Q1 where the Q1 is designed for silent operation and features a solid front bezel and sound proofing on the inside. For the SETA H1 the focus is different and favors a higher form of airflow using dual 160mm fans breathing through a fully meshed front bezel and addressable RGB (ARGB) lighting.
The ROG Strix Scope NX TKL comes in several flavors. You can get the standard black color scheme or the attractive Moonlight White you see here. Both designs come in a standard or deluxe edition with the deluxe including a matching wrist rest.
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.
