eTeknix: Creative Sound Blaster GC7 Review
For some people, actually, quite a lot of people, the onboard audio on your motherboard is good enough. Thats a pretty reasonable thing these days though, as onboard audio has come on a long way, and some high-end motherboards have incredible audio hardware as standard.

KitGuru: ASUS ZenBook 13 & Flip S – Ryzen 7 5800U vs Core i7-1165G7
In this review, we have a couple of very comparable ASUS ZenBook 13” laptops and we will be using them to pit AMD’s new Ryzen 7 5800U APU against Intel’s competing Core i7-1165G7. With both chips running at relatively low power states around the 15W mark – not the 25W+ gas guzzling mode we often see in bigger gaming-type devices – this should make for an interesting comparison.

KitGuru: be quiet! Pure Rock Slim 2 CPU Cooler Review
AIO liquid coolers and beefy air heatsinks grab plenty of attention. But vast swathes of the PC DIY building community do not require and cannot justify such expense, especially for cooling lower powered CPUs. That is where the cost-effective be quiet! Pure Rock Slim 2 comes in.

KitGuru: Nvidia RTX 3070 Ti Review ft. Inno3D & MSI
Hot on the heels of our RTX 3080 Ti review, today we are back with a look at Nvidia’s RTX 3070 Ti. While the core-count has only slightly increased from the RTX 3070, the RTX 3070 Ti is able to deliver a 36% increase to memory bandwidth thanks to its use of GDDR6X memory, instead of the slower GDDR6 modules found on the original model, we put this new GPU through its paces to see what sort of performance it can offer.

KitGuru: Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless XT Review
Today we are letting our ears do most of the work with the Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless XT headset, coming in with a £249.99 price tag. Offering Dolby Atmos support, improved cushioning over the original version, and a choice of Bluetooth, 3.5mm, USB and wireless connectivity, can it hit all the right notes or is it a little off key?
