KitGuru: Phanteks Pro-M Special Edition Review

Somehow the Phanteks Enthoo Pro-M just refuses to die. Describing the Phanteks Pro-M Special Edition is both quick and easy. Take the Pro-M Glass from 2016 (which was an update to the the original acrylic Pro-M from 2015), paint the interior white and add two Halos fan frames to the included 140mm fans at the front of the case to deliver a hefty dose of Digital RGB. Naturally the price increases slightly to account for the extra hardware but the SE premium is actually quite modest. As we say in our video, Phanteks Pro-M is the case that refuses to die.

PC Perspective: ​Scythe Fuma 2 CPU Cooler Review: Reverse Jet Flow Power

The Fuma 2 cooler (model SCFM-2000) from Scythe is a departure from their previous Fuma (SCFM-1100), building on the dual-tower, six heatpipe heatsink concept with a new asymmetric design and interesting ‘Reverse Jet Flow’ system. What is this system? The two Kaze Flex 120mm fans rotate in opposite directions, resulting in “higher static pressure and more stable airflow”, according to Scythe.

LanOC Reviews: Jaybird Vista Wireless Earbuds Review

Okay, I’ve been a little late to the party on in-ear Bluetooth earbuds. I own a stack of higher-end wired earbuds and I have been sticking with them for a while now. I’m sure I’m not the only one being a little stubborn both because of the money invested, but also because wired performance has been a lot better. Well I recently took a look at a pair of wireless earbuds to use when out mowing and I liked them. But they haven’t really overtaken the wired performance yet, so I am still on the lookout for a set to wow me. Especially now that my own phone no longer has a wired headphone jack. Jaybird is a Logitech brand and as much as it pains me to even bring up, but with the holidays coming up they were showing off some of their products and the Jaybird Vista caught my eye. Today I’m going to check them out and see if they can finally replace my wired earbuds for good. They might even potentially make a good open for those of you shopping over the holidays, but lets reserve that for after I’ve tested them.
