    Razer Wolverine Chroma V2 Xbox Series X|S Controller

    Sticks, yes. Rings no. That does raise the concern about eventual drift. Good point. I'll take a look at that when I get a chance to pop back up to my office and use a better monitor, ideally some time next week.

    Razer Wolverine Chroma V2 Xbox Series X|S Controller

    The Razer Chroma V2 is the company's newest gamepad with several improvements like back paddles, "Mecha Tactile" switches, mesmerizing RGB lighting and remappable buttons. Is the Chroma V2 a worthy iteration of the Wolverine line and worth its $150 price tag? Show full review

    Ghetto Mods

    This reminds me of the X bracket for the TRUE - If you stuck a nickel between the bracket and the sink, temps would drop by a few degrees. I have a bunch of content for this thread, I just have to dig em out. In the meantime, have an X800 AIO that came to me. Tested it the first time...

    HYTE Y40

    To be honest, I would hop out of my O11 Dynamic for this. Stock thermals might not be great, but that's not my biggest qualm when I'm going to be swapping out the fans anyway (FHP141 hiding in the floor and on the two side fans. Thermalright ARGB ones for the roof and rear. Now to go see if it...

    Thermalright Outs Ultra 120EX Rev. 4 CPU Cooler

    You /CAN/ use AM2/AM3 brackets with AM4. It's just really, really tight.

    Thermalright Outs Ultra 120EX Rev. 4 CPU Cooler

    Ah, the TRUE comes back from the dead. They're still great sinks. I already have two in the closet, but the ability to get modern brackets for them is appealing. Now, if only this would fit in a O11 Dynamic.

    Denuvo Introduces Industry First Nintendo Switch DRM Protection

    They can't. The rips of carts / eShop titles are already out there. You can still emulate them. They can add Denuvo to existing games via patches, and then update the switch firmware to require those patches. That's really only going to hurt people running modified consoles. But that's the...

    The MSI MEG Ai1300P PCIE5 is the World's First ATX 3.0 Compliant PSU with 600 W PCIe Connector

    Yup. You could /theoretically/ wire a wall socket as 240V, but you might want to take some pains to remember that it's not 120V. It's also probably hilariously not to code.

    Shuttle Launches Xeon-Compatible XPC Barebone SW580R8 Mini-PC

    I do quite like XPCs, I won't lie. This is rather intriguing; especially with the connectivity options. I have a few... concerns, though. Those NVMe drives are going to absolutely roast under load. Very little airflow via side panel vents. Almost none if you put a GPU in there. Their ICE...

    GELID Announces the Gale and Gale Extreme Fans

    They really do. Thing is, these fans are somewhat of a laziness tax. 120x38MM fans are easy to find on eBay and in local marketplaces. They'll perform similarly to these, and while they might not have PWM control, you can usually just set them to 5V / 7V with a molex adapter and call it a day...

    Arctic Introduces P14 Slim PWM PST 16mm-thick 140mm Fan

    Silverstone made those at some point, they're just hard to find. FHP-141. I used to have 8 of them for a push-pull 560mm rad setup. They were... okay fans, but not great tbh

    GIGABYTE Z690 AORUS Tachyon Helps Set DDR5-10022 OC Record

    600MB? That's such an... unusual number. How, even? I'm assuming the stick has 8x 1GB chips, but then how do you whack that almost in half

    Corsair 5000D Airflow

    How did that 3200 kit do? I have one that I picked up second hand; I managed 3866 at 16/17/17 (My notes may be wrong), but I can't get 4000 to be stable for the life of me on a 3900X and an X470 Aorus Ultra Gaming w/ F60c

    Danger Den Torture Rack

    To be honest, i like the concept, and ooh, pretty. But $234 for a few panels of laser cut acrylic, and a few peons worth of electronics? You're kidding me... right? For that price, you could easily purchase the materials, lay out a design, and pass it off to a proper shop. And yes, you...

    HIS Unveils the World's First PCIe x1 ATI Video Card

    Hmm, VIVO too? Could be a cheap way to get quad tuners on an HTPC ;)
