MSI has been one of those brands that I’ve dreamed of owning. Where possible, I’ve put MSI parts into my desktop, but I’ve never really had the funds to be able to buy one of their pre-built units, so you can imagine my excitement when given the opportunity to try

Typically, when I think of small-form PCs, I think of the horribly slow systems we used to use at my previous job. They had the bare minimum to do the job required and were typically more hassle than they were worth. It never really occurred to me that they could
You can never have enough storage in your PC, and my notebook was severely lacking with its 512GB SSD. Even though I almost never use it, it’d be handy to have some extra sneaky storage for when I’m away for work and fancy playing a game or two, and 512GB
When It comes to peripherals on the market we are no strangers to the juggernaut that is HyperX. After all, “We’re All Gamers.” This past week, I’ve had the absolute pleasure of being able to test out the new HyperX Cloud Stinger 2 Wireless headset for PC, and as soon

It’s been almost two and a half years since EPOS provided us with the EPOS|Sennheiser GSX 300 External Sound Card, and I was extremely impressed by the experience it gave me. Now, in 2023, we’ve been given the opportunity to test out the EPOS GSX 1000 2nd Edition External Sound
As I’ve said before, I’m a bit of a Samsung fanboy, so you can imagine my excitement when the boss handed me the new Samsung MX-ST50B Sound Tower to check out, and with Samsung taking on more ecologically friendly packaging, it was hard to guess what to expect. The unassuming
I think it fairly safe to assume that many of us who prefer to game on a PC have either sunk our hard-earned cash into a gaming desktop PC or a gaming laptop, but not both. And by “gaming” I mean a higher-end device that can achieve 60fps @ 4K
‘The Shrimp’ by Nordic Game Supply is an enigma. I have not seen it anywhere before, but God, it is an interesting little device. Ultra-compact, the hype around just how cool this mini keyboard is should be greater, so in saying that, MKAU introduces you to the pint-sized monster, ‘The

When I built my PC back in 2020, I wrongly calculated that a 1TB M.2 SSD and an old 1TB HDD would be enough storage space. The Hard Disk Drive is completely empty because it’s just too slow to keep up with what I need to do, and I’d be

There are certain things my mother used to tell me are worth the investment such as good shoes or a good bed, and in today’s world, I would argue a good mousepad as well. These items are something we may take for granted, and with eSport gaming, finding a comfortable
Bluetooth earbuds have fast become a necessity these days, and having a reliable, long-lasting pair can often come at quite an expense.

Choosing a gaming monitor is very much like choosing a new TV, you almost need a degree in bullsh*t to be able to wade through all the different “marketing” terms that different brands use, that actually mean the same thing. I find that one of the hardest things to get
The Turtle Beach Stealth 600 Gen 2 MAX wireless headset is out now, and I had a chance to try it out. Firstly, it being a fully wireless headset was a massive plus in my books, as I tend to get wired wrapped around things on my desk, but what
It’s been a few months since I last reviewed a gaming headset, and once again, SteelSeries has come through with the goods. After recently reworking their Arctis gaming headsets, and the new SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3 replaces the original Arctis 5, and with how much I loved the Arctis Nova
In a world where we, as gamers, are positively spoiled by choice from games to play and what we play them with, finding the right mouse can be overwhelming. Thanks to the ZOWIE Mouse Fitting Kit, BenQ can help take the stress out of finding the perfect fit for not
There are those that ask questions like “Why does it even exist?” or “Who would even spend their money on that?”. It is when the AMD Radeon RX 6400 GPU is mentioned that these types of questions are raised. Small, low power, budget cards do have a place in the
I’m pretty retro in the sense that I still prefer to wear earbuds with a cord. It needs to be something very functional to convince me to change my old ways. EPOS presents the ‘GTW 270 Hybrid Closed Acoustic Gaming Wireless Earbuds’. ‘Leave the world behind’ as you dive into
Samsung has pretty much always been my go-to brand when it comes to consumer electronics. TVs, sound systems, mobile phones, I’ve always ventured towards them as a brand because they’re one of the market leaders. Unfortunately, I had never really considered them when it came to gaming monitors, but the
As Dell’s self-proclaimed “world’s thinnest laptop”, the Alienware x14 is certainly compact piece of hardware. And what Dell has managed to pack inside this tiny chassis is surprising. It is almost as if Dell Alienware is using the same technology as used in the T.A.R.D.I.S. If you don’t understand that
