APH Networks: XPG Starker Review
I mentioned in my last review for the Cooler Master ControlPad how I had been looking around for a new place to live. In our search, we looked all over the city, from places in the deep south to apartments that were located towards the city center. After plenty of searching and some rejected offers, we have finally found somewhere to live. Now home decor and furniture came into question. The biggest thing for my fiancée and I is keeping the place clean to maximize the amount of space we have in our house. This means not having too much stuff hanging on the walls, having very few decorations sitting on shelves, getting rid of all clutter, and have tidy workspaces. All in all, we like having space to move around and having a nice, clean, and minimalist aesthetic to our surroundings. This is why I was excited when I received the XPG Starker for review. Additionally, the case, being a white color, adds a bit of brightness to our room, which is exactly what we wanted. It also matches my keyboard and desk. During this COVID-19 pandemic especially, it is important to have a great home workstation that provides a clean look to decrease stress. For me, having a computer case to neatly hold all my computer parts can really help me feel better while working. I had high hopes for this case before starting this review, but will it stand up to them all? Keep reading to find out!

Mad Shrimps: CORSAIR iCUE SP140 RGB ELITE Performance 140mm PWM Fans Review
The iCUE SP140 RGB ELITE fans from CORSAIR are targeted towards more budget-conscious people and do offer good airflow thanks to the anti-vortex vanes, with a CFM of up to 68.1. These can be successfully installed on computer cases but also on AIO radiators for improving the stock kits.
