Six Colors: 2020 MacBook Air review: No news is good news
Here’s what you need to know about the 2020 MacBook Air: It’s everything that was great about the 2018 MacBook Air, but it’s cheaper and faster, with more customizable specs and—perhaps most importantly—the same Magic Keyboard as the 16-inch MacBook Pro. Despite the keyboard and the $1099 starting price, the MacBook Air was already my go-to Mac laptop recommendation. What this new model has done is eliminate almost every caveat, warning, or footnote that might have come along with that recommendation. If the MacBook Air wasn’t definitively the center of the Mac world before—and Apple says it’s been the most popular Mac model “by far”—it certainly is now.

eTeknix: Cyberpower Infinity X66 RTX Gaming PC Review
Picking the right PC is never easy, at least, it’s not for a lot of people. Do you put more money into the GPU or the GPU? Do you go for more RAM or more storage? There are endless combinations you can go for at just about every budget. Which brands, which design, RGB or no RGB, the list of choices go on and on. While CyberpowerPC does still offer extensive customisation options on their pre-built systems, they do make things easier by offering a lot of pre-equipped systems for multiple price ranges. Today, we’re taking a look at the Infinity X66 RTX Gaming PC. At just £749 Ex VAT and 898.80 inc VAT, it’s one of their more affordable gaming PCs. Sure, it’s not bargain bin cheap, but it’s hardly sparsely equipped either

Hexus: MSI Prestige P100
We find out if the potential has been realised. It's pretty easy to build a high-performance PC these days. Grab a decent mid-tower chassis, install a premium AMD Ryzen or Intel Core processor, use whatever RAM is around, and game on GeForce or Radeon. There's no real art into building a regular PC any more.

OCinside.de: SilverStone Permafrost PF240-ARGB Review
The range of 240mm All In One water coolers for the PC is almost unlimited and the dimensions of the products are mostly similar as they are standardized. That's why we take a close look at the details at OCinside.de to find the special features of each product. This time we take a close look at the SilverStone PERMAFROST 240mm AIO with addressable RGB lighting and see if it lives up to its name. Of course, we also created another video of the great RGB lighting effects, which can also be found on our YouTube channel.

LanOC Reviews: Creative Outlier Gold Wireless In Ears
After finally switching over to a phone without a headphone jack late last fall, I have covered a few different in-ear wireless earbud options looking to see what has worked best for me ahead of all of the normal spring yard work which is where I spend a lot of time listening to music. It would be crazy to not check out what our friends over at Creative have to offer considering I am using Creative products for my desktop audio on my PC and my wife's PC. They have their Outlier Wireless In-Ears in the air version and their upgraded gold edition which adds more battery life and works with their Super X-Fi software. So today I’m going to check out the Outlier Gold’s to see if they will be the ideal solution to put to use here soon for yard work..
