TechPowerUp: Phanteks Eclipse G500A Performance Review
The Phanteks Eclipse G500A Performance really is true to its name with excellent thermal and noise results, wrapped beautifully in a functional body. This is thanks to the four retail M25-140 fans, while still allowing for massive liquid cooling builds or up to 19 hard drives to fit within.

Anandtech: WD_BLACK P40 Game Drive USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Portable SSD Review: Balanced Storage
Western Digital had announced new products in the WD_BLACK lineup back in May 2022 to augment their offerings in the gaming market. The WD_BLACK P40 Game Drive SSD was part of the set, and became widely available last quarter. Western Digital has positioned the portable drive (PSSD) as a mid-range alternative to the premium WD_BLACK P50 Game Drive SSD. Sporting a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (20 Gbps) interface, the drive launched at a much lower price point compared to the P50 despite the addition of RGB lighting to the case. What corners has Western Digital cut in this mid-range offering, and what do gamers have to lose in going with the P40 over competing PSSDs? This review provides some answers.
