AOC AGON AG322QCX 144Hz Freesync 31.5in Curved Gaming Monitor Review

Curved screens are really starting to come of age for gaming. We are seeing more and more of these, in many different sizes, and the latest to grace the KitGuru testing table is the AOC AGON AG322QCX. It’s pretty sizeable at 31.5in, but unlike many larger screens it’s still packed with features to please the serious gamer.

ASUS Prime Z370-A Motherboard Review

With the launch of Intel’s 8th Generation desktop processors last week and the need for a new chipset (Intel Z370) we have a slew of new motherboards on the block. ASUS has quite a few different Z370 motherboards available right now, from their higher-end Republic of Gamers (ROG) brand to their more affordable Prime series. I am actually a huge fan of the Prime Series. It gives you all of the great features you expect on a motherboard, without many of the extras that cost more and you simply don’t make use of. Today we are taking a look a the new ASUS Prime Z370-A Motherboard. This ATX motherboard has great features including dual M.2 slots, USB 3.1 Gen 2, 2-way SLI and 3-way CrossFire support, and even some cool RGB LEDs. You are going to get all of this for $174.99. Add an affordable “Coffee Lake” processor and you have the makings of a pretty awesome system. Let’s dive in and see what this motherboard is all about.

ASUS ROG GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Poseidon Review

It is time to take and test the best that ASUS puts on the table, the mighty ASUS ROG GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Poseidon Platinum. This graphics cards comes 100% customized with factory tweaks, a dual fan and liquid cooled block combined with a very impressive RGB solution. So yes, you can actively cooled the card (without a liquid cooling loop), but also simply hook it into your liquid cooling loop and go massive on cooling performance. Ahw yeah!

Asus ROG Strix Z370-F Gaming

Well, the Coffee Lake launch is here and to support Intel’s new CPUs we also have new motherboards. As I write this I have two boards in the office that I have been testing, the first being the Asus ROG Strix Z370-F that I used to test the two CPUs for the review. Asus’s boards have been solid and this one doesn’t look to be any different. As a Strix board, it has Asus’s now standard color neutral layout that uses black and gray, RGB lighting, and the angular Strix look. Today I’m going to take a look at its features, confirm that it performs well, check out the UEFI, and then talk a little about where it sits in the market and find out if it is worth picking up.

Corsair HX1000 PSU Review

It's time to look at Corsair's 1000W model. Since the HX1000 is based on a highly capable and modern CWT platform, we are pretty sure that it won't let us down.

Releasing the HX PSU family was definitely a smart move on Corsair's part. It offers similar (if not higher) performance as the HXi models, thanks to extra filtering capacitors. And a lower price tag is made possible by dropping the digital monitoring (and partial control) support found on products with Corsair Link functionality.

We already reviewed the family's flagship HX1200, which impressed us enough to earn an award. So now it's time to take one step down and see if Corsair's 1000W implementation is as good. Why wouldn't it be? Well, the HX1000 does not use the same platform as the HX1200, justifying our fresh round of testing. The only let-down we've spotted in Corsair's HX family so far, though, is that the HX650 and HX750 only include a single EPS connector. Given that all Socket TR4 motherboards require two EPS connectors, we'd like to see both models with a second one.

EVGA CLC 240 Liquid Cooler Review

While EVGA may be best known for its graphics cards, motherboards and power supplies, the company has recently ventured into the magical world of liquid coolers. Using 5th generation Asetek hardware, the imaginatively named CLC 240 should provide good cooling, an easy installation process and – of course – RGB lighting.

Gigabyte Aorus Z370 Gaming 7 Review

Ready and primed for that premium Core i7 8th Gen build. Gigabyte/Aorus is coming loaded to the Intel 8th Gen Core and Z370 party with at least nine motherboards from the get go. This new Intel platform offers mainstream users six cores and 12 threads from a couple of Core i7 processors, but the salient point for companies such as Aorus is that these new chips require the Z370 motherboard - older boards simply won't work with the new CPU mojo.

This is why Z370 is construed as a big deal, and the company's stack runs from the Z370-HD3 through to, at the top end for now, the Z370 Aorus Gaming 7. We are in an ideal situation to evaluate the relative merits of the Gaming 7 because we have recently reviewed the X299 and X399 variants.

Intel Core i7 8700K / i5 8600K / i5 8400 'Coffee Lake' review: affordable six cores!

This week Intel introduced their 8th generation Core-processors for desktop PCs, code name Coffee Lake. While the performance gain seemed to get smaller every time a new processor generation was released, Intel takes a big step this time. This is mostly because of the addition of more cores. For the first time Intel's mainstream platform (Socket 1151) offers Core i7 processors with 6 cores and Core i3 processors with 4 cores. In this review you can find the effect that this addition has on the performance, and a comparison with the previous generation. We extensively tested the new Core i7 8700K, Core i5 8600K and Core i5 8400.

We need to go back more than 10 years, to January 2007, when Intel introduced an affordable quad-core processor for the first time with the Core 2 Quad Q6600. Two years later, in 2009, Intel released their "Core series"-processors, which made a clear distinction between affordable "mainstream" desktop processors (socket 115x) and more expensive high-end processors (Socket 1366 and later 2011 and 2066) with Core i7s, i5s and i3s. Generation upon generation the maximum amount of cores was limited to four with the mainstream platform. Nevertheless the higher clock frequencies, new instruction set extensions and different architecture improvements let Intel introduce faster processor generations every year. However, the last few years the performance increase was limited to about 5 to 10 percent from generation to generation. This meant that more and more hardware enthusiasts did not have a reason to replace a processor of a few years old for a new model.

Today, with the 8th generation Core-processors, Intel finally takes a big step forward again. Under the code name Coffee Lake, Core i7 and Core i5 processors are "upgraded" from four to six cores. The new Core i7 8700K and Core i5 8600K, successors to the popular Core i7 7700K and Core i5 7600K CPUs, offer 50% more cores at a comparable price. The cheaper i3 processors even go from two to four cores with the new generation!

Intel Z370 motherboards round-up: 17 times Coffee Lake

For a long time you could count the performance improvement percentage of a new Intel-generation using the fingers of two hands. However, in the latest Core i7-series Intel takes a big step forward with 50% more cores: it has been quite a while since upgrading looked so attractive. Unfortunately you do need a new motherboard for this. Luckily there is a lot to choose from: we tested 17 Intel Z370-motherboards. Which one should you get?
