LanOC Reviews: Noctua Home Lineup
Noctua has a reputation for having some of the best quality and performing PC fans on the market and with that, they are also known for taking all of the time needed to bring even the smallest of products to market. If it isn’t perfect in their eyes, they keep working on it or scrap it altogether. Their desk fan and with it the entire Noctua Home lineup is a great example of that. They had prototypes at Computex back in 2018 and that lineup just hit shelves this year. With that, I’m excited to finally check it out. I have been running a basic USB fan on my desk 24 hours a day for 10 to 15 years, replacing a full-sized fan that would be in my office before then. But that fan does raise the base noise level in my office and I always have to turn it off anytime I’m doing any noise testing. I even toyed around with replacing it years ago when Noctua brought out their 5v lineup of fans using 3D-printed stands. Anyhow, let’s get into it and see what all of Noctua Home lineup has to offer and see how their new fan performs.

Dedoimedo: Ubuntu 24.10 review - Oracular but not spectacular
Long, thorough review of Ubuntu 24.10 Oracular Oriole, tested in a multi-boot Windows and Linux setup on a laptop with AMD processor and integrated graphics and SSD storage, covering live session, installation and post-install use, including look and feel, ergonomics, awful fonts, confusing first-time setup wizard, redesigned installer with bad workflow, slow boot time, rigid desktop and missing configurations, performance, responsiveness, problems due to Wayland and underlying Gnome technology, unappealing App Center, significant eye strain due to bad font color and contrast choices leading to shortened testing, comparison to older Ubuntu releases and Unity desktop, overall trend in quality and usability, some other observations, and more

We all love fast storage, anything that means quicker game loading times, faster applications, improved rendering speeds and swift file transfers is going to make for a fantastic PC user experience. The ADATA Legend 970 Pro enters the PCIe Gen5 SSD arena with a promise of blistering speeds and a suite of robust features. Boasting sequential read/write speeds that decimate what was on offer from PCIe Gen 4, this SSD aims to tick all the boxes for the enthusiast PC user.
