Elgato 4K60 Pro Mk.2 Capture Card Review

It's a new 4K60 capture card from Elgato, Andy puts it to the test. Elgato, now in partnership with Corsair, is known for its high-quality content creation and streaming products, but surely its current line-up covers all the bases already? Well, you’re right to think that but the company has taken its best capture card and given it one hell of a makeover! The original 4K60 Pro, released in 2017, was already a monster of a card and Elgato has just given it a full hardware redesign.

Featuring the ability to capture and passthrough HDR10, 1440p at 144Hz, 1080p at 240Hz and, the biggest improvement – the ability to capture footage with the card via multiple software options at the same time – this card has some serious specs. Just how good is it? Let’s find out.

Gigabyte Radeon RX 5700 XT GAMING OC Review

Custom Radeon RX 5700 series boards have been arriving at a steady clip over the last few weeks. Some of the most commonly voiced concerns regarding AMD’s Radeon RX 5700 reference designs were the noise output and relatively high junction temperatures offered by the stock, blower-style cooler. Partner boards promised quieter, more robust cooling solutions, however, designed to address exactly those concerns. We took a look at the PowerColor Red Devil RX 5700 XT a couple of weeks back, and save for its wider footprint and slightly higher price, we found it to be an across the board upgrade over the reference design. Today, we bring you the second, all-custom Radeon RX 5700 XT to hit the lab, the Gigabyte Radeon RX 5700 XT Gaming OC 8G...

InWin is no stranger here at ThinkComputers. We recently took a look at their small A1 Plus, and have always been impressed with their offerings.

Xiaomi Mi9 Review

We’re edging towards to latter half of 2019 and the next and last upcoming wave of device releases, however among the many device releases of the year one device we missed to review was the new Xiaomi Mi9. The phone was amongst the earliest releases of the year, being actually representing one of the first Snapdragon 855 devices announced back in February.

Xiaomi’s always been an interesting vendor that stood out alongside Huawei as one of the bigger Chinese vendors that have a larger presence in the west. Particularly last year and especially this year Xiaomi has made a lot of progress in terms of their push in European markets by officially releasing and offering their flagship devices in different market. The Mi9, as opposed to past iterations, thus no longer represents being a special case or import device, but rather a simple official Amazon purchase.

Today the Mi9 can be had for even less than its original 445€ launch price, being available for less than 400€, whilst still offering flagship performance, a triple camera setup, a great screen, all in a compact and attractive package. We’ll go over the device and exactly investigate how Xiaomi is able to offer such hardware at a low price, if there’s compromises and where they lie.

Xigmatek Zest Review

The Xigmatek Zest is one hefty chassis that throws RGBs at us in every possible way: by embedding them into two 200 mm fans, the company logo, and a third fan in the rear, just for good measure. It looks like a sleek and large case that promises to handle any hardware.
