KitGuru: Corsair 5000D AirFlow Case Review
Corsair’s new 5000D AirFlow bears a clear resemblance to the 4000D AirFlow we reviewed a few months ago, however it is quite a bit larger and is almost twice as expensive. Heading into this review our expectations are raised and we are looking for a case that performs well and that delivers value for money. Let’s see whether Corsair has started 2021 on a high note.

KitGuru: Thermaltake The Tower 100 Snow Edition – World Exclusive Review
Thermaltake first showed us their Mini-ITX The Tower 100 case during a virtual Expo that replaced Computex in 2020 and we were intrigued, especially when we learned the price was around the £90/$90 mark. Fast forward six months and as we prepared for a virtual CES, and the delayed launch of The Tower 100, we were truly surprised when Thermaltake offered KitGuru a world exclusive review of this intriguing case. Naturally enough we accepted with almost indecent haste.

APH Networks: ROCCAT Sense AIMO XXL Review
About a few weeks ago, our Editor-in-Chief Jonathan asked me if I would want to review a mousepad, and I said yes. Then I told my wife about my upcoming review project. Unsurprisingly, my wife just had a reaction you would expect from anyone who is not a computer enthusiast. She wondered how I would be able to write a multi-page review about supposedly simple things like mousepads. Well, it is fair that for normal office or home use, mousepads can be as simple as some soft material sandwiched between a layer of rubber and a layer of cloth. However, for gamers, their mousepads are a different story. Rumor says gaming mousepads have to have more features than bath mats, otherwise they cannot be considered as gaming gear. Not only do the texture of the gliding surface need to provide the right amount of resistance for precision handling, it also needs to look good. For gamers, winning a game is not everything, as they need to enjoy the time of playing the game. Just like everything else on a set of nice gaming machine, a nice gaming mousepad could also have RGB lighting to be even qualified as gaming gear. In other words, in this review, I will not only examine how the ROCCAT Sense AIMO XXL provides glide and control experience, but also see how good its RGB lighting functionality really is. If you are curious about the overall performance of this particular product as well, please keep on reading this review!

Mad Shrimps: Patriot PXD 1TB Portable USB 3.2 External SSD Review
In terms of drive performance, the PXD 1TB trades punches with the Crucial X8 but the speed is a bit lower during mixed workloads. The sequential read/write speeds are near the rated numbers, while the drive chassis is implemented optimally, using the aluminum area as a heatsink; we were quite...
