APH Networks: Thermaltake SWAFAN EX12 RGB Review

I was thinking about older handheld game consoles and it reminded me how interesting innovation really was. For many people out there, they may have thought back to the days of Game Boy, Game Boy Color, or even the Game Boy Advance. Luckily, I am not old enough to be in that generation, but for me I was thinking more about the Nintendo DS line. The popularity spanned due to the wide variety of games suitable for practically everyone. When looking at this product line, we had the original DS releasing back in 2004, DS Lite in 2006, DSi in 2008, DSi XL in 2009, and the whole 3DS line starting in 2011. The entire DS line was something I grew up with, but something I never actually watched innovate through time. As a child, all you really wanted to do was play Pokémon and a device that can do it. As one of those children, I never really realized what was changing from device to device. The DSi introduced internet connectivity, having applications be downloadable from an online shop. This was something likely inspired by Apple and the App Store. The 3DS line's expansion of creating a 3D effect for its games was something interesting and was considered a flop. The innovation of 3D gaming was something played with before, but with no success. The 3DS added all the features of the previous DSi and added a feature that nobody in particular really cared about. It is interesting to see this flop because the final iteration of the 3DS line was actually the 2DS XL, a bigger version with the 3D features disabled. It was interesting to see the successes and the failures of Nintendo and to see how they had learned and adapted. Likewise to the continuous development we saw with the DS, Thermaltake has updated their SWAFAN 12 RGB with their new SWAFAN EX12 RGB. Did Thermaltake learn from their successes and failures? Keep reading to find out!

MadShrimps: Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus-G NVMe Gen4 2280 2TB SSD Review

The new Rocket 4 Plus-G 2TB performed admirably in our tests, trading punches with the non-G variant while kept blank but outperforming it when filled more than 50%. We did also note a sustained write rate much higher than the drives we have tested before, being able to finish writing over 1.1TB...
