ASUS ROG MAXIMUS XI HERO (WiFi) Review
Need a break from the relentless AMD coverage? The ROG MAXIMUS XI HERO (WiFi) is a premium Z390 motherboard from ASUS that promises top-tier performance and a classic ROG aesthetic. AMD might have stolen the show this year, but Intel still carries an edge at the top end of gaming performance.Read full article @ TechPowerUp
Best Android Phones: Q3 2019
It’s past the middle of the year now, and every Android vendor has had the opportunity to release their devices. It’s been a few months now since the flagship refresh cycle started and we’ve reviewed the ups and down of this generation, even giving vendors enough opportunity to refine their software and fix any issues that may have plagued the phones in the first few months. It’s this time of the year that’s also the best time to actually dive into getting a new phone – the new generation has already gotten sizeable price reductions, but the phones are still new enough that one wouldn’t suffer any buyer’s remorse in getting in on the bandwagon, with still plenty of time left in the product cycle.Read full article @ Anandtech
COLORFUL iGame GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Vulcan X OC-V Review
I've been a fan of COLORFUL for many years now and have been nurturing that relationship with the company for many years, having a few exclusives here and there with their iGame graphics cards. I have been working tirelessly with them for months to get samples into my hands here at TweakTown for the RTX 20 series cards so here we are -- the world exclusive review on the COLORFUL iGame GeForce RTX 2080 Vulcan X OC-V, one of the best custom RTX SUPER graphics cards on the market.Read full article @ TweakTown
COLORFUL is a Chinese company that makes all sorts of products, but their iGame line of custom GeForce GTX and RTX series graphics cards are in a league of their own. The design of the cards is striking but not over-the-top, while the best parts of the card include one of the best-looking custom coolers and even an LCD display.
Corsair iCUE 465X Mid-Tower Chassis Review
Corsair has been making cases for quite a long time now, even if they did set their roots in PC memory. But, Corsairs legacy has become far vaster than simply DRAM over the years. Today we have in the lab, the second of the new iCUE series of ˜smart cases' as dubbed by Corsair. The term smart case has always been a bit ambiguous to me, as a smart case in the sense of the iCUE, means to include the Lighting Node CORE which controls only lighting for the six connected ports.Read full article @ TweakTown
Now in comparison, NZXT has their HXXXi series of smart cases which has a CAM powered smart controller that integrates a fan controller and RGB control into a single package. The CAM unit also has a noise sensor, which means it can do a real-time assessment of chassis noise. It can also possibly tune fan curves for audibility along with monitoring CPU and internal temps to ensure the system stays cool.
G.Skill Trident Z Neo 4x8GB Review: DDR4-3600 For AMD X570
G.Skill was first to offer a new memory series optimized for AMD’s Ryzen 3000 memory controller, but does it make X570 better?Read full article @ Tom's Hardware
Gigabyte X570 AORUS PRO WIFI Motherboard Review
With the successful launch of a new generation of Ryzen chipset and processor architecture from AMD, manufacturers such as GIGABYTE are releasing exciting new lineups of motherboards outfitted with the new X570 chipset which supports a slew of new features such as support for beastly 16+ core/32+ thread processors as well as support for PCIe 4.0, just to name a few.Read full article @ FunkyKit
We were ecstatic when GIGABYTE informed us that they would be sending over a shiny new X570 motherboard review and our new Ryzen 7 3700X was just itching to get to work! This motherboard has it all, but faces stiff competition from other brands. Read the full review to find out whether you should consider the GIGABYTE X570 AORUS Pro Wi-Fi motherboard as your base for the all new and exciting Ryzen platform from AMD.
MSI GT76 Titan DT 9SG Laptop Review
MSI has crammed a 9900K into this laptop, and they say it can run at 5GHz on all cores. We got our first look at the MSI GT76 Titan back in May, just before Computex. We then followed up than initial hands-on with a sit-down preview of the system last month, and now we can present our full review of this machine. It is a total beast in every sense of the word, weighing over 4kgs (plus two 330W power bricks) and packing a desktop i9-9900K processor which MSI claims can overclock to 5GHz on all cores. When you factor in the gargantuan £4499 asking price, it is clear this machine is not for the faint of heart.Read full article @ KitGuru
Orico NVMe M.2 Enclosure Round-Up Review
Whether you want to utilise an old drive that’s no longer in use of build a whole new portable storage drive, the latest M.2 SSD housings from Orico might be something for you. Today I have two of the latest ones in the office for a closer look. First, there is the beautiful PCM2-C3 which features a full aluminium alloy chassis while the other is the TCM2-C3 which is a transparent casing with an aluminium heat sink.Read full article @ eTeknix
The two M.2 enclosures are identical in the sense of features, functionality, and performance. The difference is in the design which allows you to pick the one best suited for you. Whether you want a clean style or fancy transparency.
Orico PCM2-C3-GY USB 3.1 Review and Crucial P1 1TB M.2 SSD Review
On OCinside.de we tested an external Orico PCM2-C3-GY USB 3.1 Gen2 case together with a Crucial P1 1TB M.2 NVMe SSD. The external NVMe case supports USB 3.1 Gen2 with up to 10 Gb/s transfer speed and takes full advantage of the USB interfaces of current motherboards. The corresponding USB 3.1 Type-C cable and a USB-C to USB 3.1 Type-A cable are included. Equipped with a new Crucial P1 1TB M.2 2280 NVMe SSD this results in a really fast team! How fast you can transfer data with it and how well it works in everyday practice is shown in the following review.Read full article @ OcInside.de
PowerColor Red Devil RX 5700 takes on the RTX 2060/SUPER
The Red Devil RX 5700 arrived yesterday at BTR for evaluation priced at $389. We have been benching it versus the $349 RTX 2060 Founders Edition (FE) and the $399 RTX 2060 SUPER FE video cards using 44 games and 3 synthetic benchmarks.Read full article @ BabelTechReviews
We will also compare the performance of these three competing cards with the RX 5700 XT Anniversary Edition (AE), the RTX 2070 SUPER FE, the liquid-cooled Vega 64 and the Red Devil RX Vega 56. Ten other cards’ recent performance results are also included to complete BTR’s Big Picture.
PowerColor RX 5700 XT Red Devil Review
The general consensus at launch was that the Radeon RX 5700 series propelled AMD back into a competitive position at the upper-end of the enthusiast GPU market, but that third-party, custom cards would likely address the shortcomings of AMD’s reference design and make the Navi proposition all that much sweeter. Well, we’ve gotten our hands on one of the more sought after third-party Radeons of the last few generations – one of PowerColor’s Red Devil cards – and think that many of you are going to be pleased with what this custom Radeon RX 5700 XT can do. Take a look...Read full article @ HotHardware
