Cougar 700K Review

A couple of months ago we reviewed a new mouse from Cougar and despite it being their first real entry into the high end gaming peripherals market it was rather impressive. Today in our Cougar 700K Review we find out if they can repeat that with a new high end keyboard.

G.SKILL RIPJAWS 4 16GB DDR4 Review

Up there as a firm favourite with system builders and overclockers alike, G.SKILL are a leader in PC memory products. The Ripjaws range are extremely popular with enthusiasts not only because of the excellent performance offered but also because of the stunning looks and lifetime warranty. They are a favourite here at Vortez too because of their fantastic compatibility and ultra reliability.

The range starts from 2133MHz up to the recently released 3200MHz kit which is one of the fastest currently available on the X99 platform. We will be testing the 2800MHz kit with a CAS reading of 16 today but G.SKILL also have a lower latency CAS 15 kit in the same speed band should you wish although that kit requires a little extra voltage (1.25v) over the 1.2v this kit is designed to draw. We've already seen what performance is offered by the Crucial and Corsair kits so it's time for the fastest kit we have had on the bench table. Let's see how it performs...

Gaming PC - November 2014

This computer system is specifically geared towards gaming. That means a PC with a high-end graphics card and a processor that is fast enough to support the GPU.

HP Stream 11 First Impressions

Oh my. The HP Stream 11 is clearly both inexpensive and a great value. At just $200, it's cheap, of course. But it also features a solid-feeling construction, a bright and fun form factor, a surprisingly high-quality typing experience and a wonderful screen. This isn't a bargain bin throwaway. The Stream 11 is something special.

Microsoft Band Second Impressions

Still more questions than answers. Even after less than a day of use, it's pretty clear that Microsoft Band is big, bulky, uncomfortable and complex enough to dissuade many from using it. Which is too bad, because there is real magic here. Both in the Band itself, which provides an unprecedented number of data-gathering sensors. And in the underlying Microsoft Health services, which are more comprehensive than anything seen in other health and fitness platforms.

Microsoft Miracast-Powered Wireless Display Adapters Review

Two wireless wires. icrosoft's sudden embrace of Miracast with the release of not one but two slightly different wireless display adapters has made the past month pretty interesting. The good news is that both adapters work well and offer solid, reliable connections. So here are some thoughts about how you might choose between the Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter and the Microsoft Screen Sharing for Lumia Phones HD-10.
