Aorus' GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Xtreme Edition 11G graphics card reviewed

Aorus' GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Xtreme Edition 11G promises to unshackle the GP102 GPU from the constraints of a reference board. We run this card through our gauntlet of performance and noise testing to see whether it's worth the premium over Nvidia's GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition.

Bloody M660P Gaming Headset Review

Bloody gaming has released a new addition to their M660 series headsets, the M660P. The M660P has the same 40mm drivers and the same MO-CI (Mycelium of Carbon IT) dual diaphragm as it’s older brother, the M660 Chronometer. What the M660P brings to the table is an in-line microphone instead of a boom mic. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? That’s one of the things we’ll be testing in this article for Benchmark Reviews.

Corsair GLAIVE RGB Gaming Mouse Review

Corsair has added yet one more product to their ever growing gaming peripheral repertoire with their launch of the GLAIVE RGB Gaming Mouse. If you’re like me, the word glaive drew a big blank so I had to look it up to find out that it simply means ‘sword’. Being that a sword is an instrument of warfare and many games are combat based, it seems as an appropriate a appellation as any. It also follows the seemingly growing trend of titling it in all caps which is probably some clever marketing trick to make the product stand out in a listing or triggering some memory mnemonic in prospective customers. Maybe it’s none of the above and I’m simply reading too much into it. Either way, we have our hot hands on one to see if it meets one of their taglines of “Winning never felt so good”. Sword in hand, we plunge ahead.

EVGA CLC 280 Water Cooling

When it comes to water cooling EVGA isn’t exactly new to the scene. While they haven’t been making CPU AIO’s they have been using them with their Hybrid coolers for GPUs and their Hydro water cooled GPUs as well. They have also had heatsinks in the past as well. So it wasn’t a big stretch when they introduced their CLC line of coolers at CES this year. They showed off a big variety of coolers but at launch, they only had a 120mm design and a 280mm design and today I have the CLC 280 with a 280mm radiator in to check out. I’ve been testing it out on our video card testbench and today I’m going to talk a little about the cooler as well as how it performed so check it out.

Gigabyte Aero 15 Review

A bigger and better alternative to the Razer Blade? Picking a gaming laptop can be fraught with danger: you would typically be expected to pay a hefty sum in return for a powerful machine riddled with compromise. Hardly appealing, but the situation has improved dramatically in recent years. Today's mobile gaming PCs are thinner, lighter, quieter and better suited to a wider variety of workloads.

We've recently been impressed by the Gigabyte Aero 14 and Razer Blade, but if you're in the market for a gaming laptop with a larger display, take a good look at Gigabyte's all-new Aero 15.

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Aorus Xtreme Edition Review

The launch of the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti was the reason for Gigabyte to release a complete line-up of their own variations on the market. The GTX 1080 Ti Aorus Xtreme Edition is the flagship model of the aircooled models: how does it stack up?

Before we're taking a look at how the card performs, it's safe to say that in any case the appearance of the card is rather extreme. The front of the card features a large illuminated X with three overlapping fans behind it. The middle fan is slightly recessed compared to the other two fans on the sides. A large Aorus logo that is also RGB backlit can be found on the top of the card, the side that is best visible in cases with a window. Lastly, the back of the card also features a couple of LEDs.

All of this does come at a price. The Gigabyte 1080 Ti Aorus Xtreme costs about 740 pounds at the time of writing and therefore it's the most expensive GTX 1080 Ti, together with a card from ASUS, we've tested in our test lab up until now. It's also noteworthy that Gigabyte offers a four-year warranty period - you'll have to register your card for the last year though.

Lenovo IdeaCentre Y710 Cube Review: Big Gaming Performance In A Small Package

The Lenovo IdeaCentre Y710 Cube is a small form factor (SFF) PC aimed at hardcore gamers on the go. The toolbox-size computer packs solid desktop hardware, including an Intel Core i7-6700 processor and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 GPU, giving it the horsepower necessary to handle most modern games. And, like a toolbox, the Y710 Cube has a handle so you can grab it and go.

Compact PCs have become increasingly more popular with gamers who want the power of a desktop system, but don’t want to lug a large PC when the need arises. They’re also popular at LAN events, for the same reasons...

Patriot Hellfire PCIe M.2 Solid State Drive Review

Over the past year we've seen a new generation of solid state drives enter the market taking speeds and form factor to the next level.  These are of course the PCI-Express M.2 NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) drives.  These drives offer 3-4x the speeds of SATA-based solid state drives and are extremely small, plugging right into an M.2 slot in your motherboard.  Patriot has presented us with their first ever PCI-Express M.2 solid state drive, the Hellfire.  It is based off of Phison's E7 NVMe controller and comes in 240GB and 480GB versions.  Today we have the 480GB version which offers sequential read and write speeds of 3000 MB/s and 2400 MB/s respectively.  Let's see what this drive can do!

Radeon RX 550 + Pentium G4560: The Ultimate eSports Combo?

Currently at $80 the RX 550 is not the best value, but given the competitive landscape it's our hope that it'll soon be selling for as little as $60, a price at which it starts making sense, especially when you consider the potential in a $120 combo with the G4560 for an uber-affordable eSports build. That's precisely what we're doing here today.
