KitGuru: Phanteks Eclipse P200A D-RGB Review
The new Mini-ITX Phanteks Eclipse P200A chassis comes in two versions. The basic ‘Performance’ model costs £45, while this more luxurious ‘D-RGB’ version adds tempered glass, USB-C and Digital RGB and only costs £65. There is no denying those are both low prices, so the question is how well the Eclipse P200A lives up to its Phanteks heritage.

KitGuru: ASUS TUF Dash F15 Review w/ Tiger Lake H35
Intel announced their mobile Tiger Lake-H CPUs at the virtual CES in January, with headlines talking about the Core i7-11375H with a Thermal Velocity Boost of 5.0GHz on a single core. Intel sent us a sample of the ASUS TUF Dash F15 laptop so we could experience this mighty CPU in action… however, as you will see in our video, our laptop came with a Core i7-11370H rather than the Core i7-11375H. We don’t mind missing out on a fleeting 200MHz boost but it goes to show even Intel can get confused by their product stack.

KitGuru: Lenovo P620 Threadripper Pro 3975WX Review
AMD’s Threadripper consumer HEDT processors continue to be praised strongly for their excellent compute performance and connectivity options. But what if you want more than 256GB of memory? What if you want your RAM to run in 8-channel mode? What if you want more than 64 PCIe Gen 4 lanes? Well… that’s where Threadripper Pro comes in.
