APH Networks: XPG Lancer RGB DDR5-6000 2x16GB Review
Planning a surprise party, after doing it for the first time, was definitely more stressful and work than I recalled. In my case, it was my girlfriend's birthday. To start, you have your regular party items to plan, such as figuring out availability, location, things to do, what to eat, and more. This has its own share of work already, including figuring out a date that works with everyone. The surprise factor compounds this because you have to do this in secret, ensuring the subject of surprise is available for the day, but unbeknownst to the plans. This, to me, is the trickier portion because I am often excited to share things with her. On multiple occasions, different people in our group almost accidentally leaked the event, each in different ways, but thankfully she was unaware until the moment of surprise. To surprise her, all of the people involved in the event hid in a washroom and popped out when she opened the door. Needless to say, she was definitely astonished. All of this being said, parties do not need to have the surprise element. I am sure she would have still been happy if she knew we were planning a party for her, but I think the element of the surprise adds that much more. In a similar line of thought, RGB LEDs do not need to be a part of memory modules, as they really do not add anything in terms of performance. However, RAM manufacturers have been doing this for quite a while, as the craze started during the previous generation of DDR4 memory. Now that we are on to DDR5, we can see the trend is still going strong, which is seen today in the XPG Lancer RGB DDR5-6000 2x16GB kit. How do these sticks of RAM perform and how does the lighting add to it? Let us read on to find out!

LanOC Reviews: WaterGuru SENSE
While sometimes smart home products can come off as lazy, but I know for me the goal is to simplify things to free up time for activities that I enjoy. As a homeowner with a pool, starting in the spring I have a long list of things to get done to open up the pool. Once I get all of that done I then have to stay on top of things to keep it clean and clear which even if you run a chlorinator or use tablets with a floaty you should still be keeping a close eye on your levels. You might be able to find a remote temperature gauge, but checking your FC and PH on the other hand you will need to be there. But I recently came across the WaterGuru SENSE which claims to be able to do just that and I’m interested in finding out how well it would work for me and today I’m going to check it out and see what the WaterGuru Sense is all about.
