While PCIe Gen 5 NVMe SSDs are setting new storage performance benchmarks, the real-life and application benefits of getting those drives are still not worth the price you are paying for them. It's still very much an early adopter product for now and while we appreciate the speed-up, we would love to see the performance transition from synthetic benchmarks to actual use cases. And you know what's still considered quite fast without breaking your wallet? The current-gen PCIe Gen 4 NVMe SSDs.

SteelSeries headsets have long been among my favorite wireless gaming headsets. This is not only because of the good sound quality the brand offers but also because of the comfort and battery life these headpieces pack. Back in May of this year, SteelSeries released its Arctis Nova 5X wireless for consoles and PC, and I was happy to be able to get a sample for testing. I've been testing quite a few wireless outings from SteelSeries over the past few years with the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless being the most recent headpiece I reviewed. In the same Nova line, SteelSeries […]

It's been over a year since NVIDIA introduced its Ada Lovelace GPUs, and since then, the lineup has seen various additions with the most recent one being the "SUPER" series which introduced brand new variants in the lineup while replacing the older Non-SUPER models. One of the cards that was still kept in the lineup is the GeForce RTX 4070 and despite its "SUPER" variant offering a nice boost in performance, the 4070 still exists in the current stack owing to its popular demand, mostly due to its price point in the $500 US range. NVIDIA has periodically said that […]

Open-world racing games have become fairly commonplace in recent years, but before the likes of Forza Horizon or The Crew rolled out, we had Test Drive Unlimited. Despite innovating many staples of the modern open-world racer, the franchise has laid dormant since 2011, so there was a fair amount of excitement when a third entry in the series, Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown, was announced back in 2020. Now that the game has finally arrived after several delays, does Test Crown Unlimited Solar Crown return the series to the top of the open-world racer leaderboard? Or should this franchise have […]

The MARVEL vs. CAPCOM series is a fighting game franchise that needs to introduction. It was the culmination of a long collaboration between the two companies which began back in 1994 with X-Men: Children of the Atom and continued with Marvel Super Heroes the following year. With the release in 1996 of X-Men vs. Street Fighter, the world of fighting games changed forever, thanks to the game's tag system, which allowed players to swap between two different characters at almost any time during a fight and unleash super moves together, a system that was further refined in Marvel Super Heroes […]

I thought Dragonflight was the absolute peak of modern-day World of Warcraft, but I didn't think it could be topped. At first, I didn't have much hope for The War Within when diving into it. However, the action started immediately, and my interest was immediately piqued. While World of Warcraft has had some questionable choices in villains (looking at The Jailer from Shadowlands), Xal'atath feels multi-faceted and genuinely evil compared to other villains that have popped up over the years. The Warbands feature was one of the best features added in this new expansion. You could choose up to four […]

Over the years, Behavior Interactive's Dead by Daylight has become a worldwide phenomenon and one of the most popular multiplayer games still running today thanks to its unique gameplay and the setting, which, from the limited information available in-game, seems to be much deeper and complex than it what may seem at first glance.

The Portability factor is one of the main reasons why laptops exist but nowadays we have mini-PCs that can be incredibly small and some of them are ready to be carried in a loose pocket. This has made it easier for PC manufacturers to provide better specifications in a smaller footprint and we no longer need a big motherboard to carry the modern hardware. Mini-PCs or similar compact form-factor computing devices necessitate buying a discrete display and if portability is compromised, there is no reason to buy a Mini-PC. Thankfully, the display market is evolving rapidly and now we have […]

The Nintendo Switch has seen a lot of deep-cut releases over the past year, but arguably none slice quite as deep as Emio - The Smiling Man: Famicom Detective Club. A series of surprisingly-mature 8-bit visual novels written by Metroid co-creator Yoshio Sakamoto, the Famicom Detective Club games gained a certain amount of notoriety over the decades amongst hardcore Nintendo fans who like to keep up with the company’s unlocalized oddities. It certainly came as a surprise when Nintendo brought remakes of the first two Famicom Detective Club titles, The Missing Heir and The Girl Who Stands Behind, to worldwide […]

Black Myth: Wukong made more than a few heads turn with its reveal trailer released back in 2020, but it was with the switch to Unreal Engine 5 that the action role-playing game developed by Game Science entered most players' radars. With beautiful environments and highly detailed characters enhanced by the engine, Black Myth: Wukong promised to be one of the first truly next-gen action role-playing games. Being from an unproven studio, many wondered if Game Science had what it takes to create a compelling action role-playing game experience. After spending around 25 hours with the game, I can say […]

I didn't know what to expect when I first booted up the game. I went in without knowing it and didn't even look it up on the Steam page. I installed Dustborn, developed by Red Thread Games and got stuck in. However, after some time playing the game, it felt familiar. For a while, I couldn't place my finger on what felt so familiar about Dustborn until I realized that it reminded me of the Telltale games, specifically Tales from the Borderlands. The characters had the same kooky vibes as those of Tales from the Borderlands. One of the main […]

AMD's high-performance CPU journey continues on the desktop platform with the arrival of the Zen 5 core architecture. The new architecture has several fundamental changes that allow huge performance uplifts in single-core and multi-core applications. These can be attributed to the 16 percent IPC improvement that the new architecture has on offer. Replacing the AMD Ryzen 7000 "Zen 4" CPUs, the Ryzen 9000 "Zen 5" CPUs do not change the core configurations but enhance them in certain ways. The architectural upgrades allow Zen 5 chips to run cooler, consume lower power, and support the latest features on existing and upcoming […]
