ASUS Cerberus V2 Review

ASUS have addressed these issues, and implemented them in the Cerberus V2. Unlike the original Cerberus headset, it now features a bouncy steel frame, a stitched headband for additional protection, as well as improved ear cushions that provide 30% extra coverage for improved comfort and sound isolation. ASUS have also have changed the drivers, rather than shipping with the unnecessarily large 60mm drivers, they have implemented exclusive 53mm ASUS Essence drivers. This means that there is more space inside the earcup, allowing the drivers to deliver a powerful and rich sound.

MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Gaming X 11G Review: Blazing-Fast And Custom Cooled

Custom variants of NVIDIA's mighty GeForce GTX 1080 Ti are finally available -- more so than the initial run of the stock clocked Founders Editions. As always, however, fortune favors the prudent buyer or simply those more recently flush with cash. In this custom 1080 Ti offering, MSI marries old form with new function. The MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Gaming X 11G has just emerged from our gauntlet of a dozen benches with style and grace, but we have to admit, she looks darn familiar.

While other company's are gambling with fancy new fan configurations, RGB lighting and complicated cooling systems, MSI is kicking it old school...
