Minisforum has been around since 2012 and has offered some innovative designs, mostly in the Mini PC segment. The company has a wide variety of options featuring Intel and AMD CPUs & the company recently introduced its new AtomMan range of high-end products which include some unique designs that stand out from the rest of the market. The manufacturer recently introduced the AtomMan X7 Ti, a high-end Mini PC that comes packed with the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H CPU and other high-end specs such as 32 GB of DDR5 and 1 TB of SSD storage.

The wait for Alan Wake 2 was extremely long, but it was well worth it, as Remedy Entertainment put out something that wasn't just a simple survival horror game but an intense experience that is very difficult to forget.  While another entry in the series won't be seeing the light of day anytime soon, especially with Remedy working on multiple titles (including the second entry in the Control series and remakes of the first two entries in the Max Payne series) the base Alan Wake 2 game isn't the last we will see of the tormented writer for a long […]

The Switch is home to more than its share of remakes and remasters, but despite having a hearty library of games worth revisiting, few if any Nintendo 3DS games have been up for revival. That’s about to change though, as the 3DS is finally getting a little love in Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD (originally known as Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon in North America). Luigi’s Mansion 2/Dark Moon really pushed what the 3DS could do back in the day, but does it still bust with the best a decade later on more capable hardware? Or is it hard to scare up […]

REDRAGON has built a name for itself in the gaming industry in recent years. The company which started as a budget-tier brand for peripherals is now entering almost all segments of the market including PC chairs, PC cases, PC power supplies, PC coolers, & even PC monitors.

The release of DLC expansions for games developed by FromSoftware is often met with plenty of anticipation, as the Japanese development studio is known for releasing additional content that is often even better than the base game. With Elden Ring, however, this was not very easy to achieve. The studio's latest game is a masterclass of action role-playing games and open-world design, which is difficult to top, something that FromSoftware is surely aware of, as the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion does not present a markedly better experience than the base game. At the same time, it is undeniable it […]

The DDR5 memory segment has been seeing a lot of action as it gets standardized across all PC platforms. With memory prices dropping and the latest platforms becoming affordable, memory makers are offering new solutions all the time with some focusing on high-end specifications. In contrast, others focus on strengthening their gaming product portfolios. Last year, Crucial (Micron) introduced its first desktop-ready DDR5 UDIMMs, offering up to 5600 MT/s speeds. These were designed following JEDEC specs to make sure that they were compatible with all PC platforms. More recently, Crucial introduced its Pro Overclocking lineup & the specs have seen […]

A key ingredient to a successful horror story is a good setting and Still Wakes the Deep, which takes place on a massive deep sea oil rig off the coast of Scotland, has a pretty killer one. The game also has a critically acclaimed, if somewhat divisive, creative team behind it in The Chinese Room, the British developer behind past indie hits such as Dear Esther and Everybody's Gone to the Rapture. In other words, Still Wakes the Deep would seem to have quite a bit going for it at first glance. So, does the game successfully tap into its […]

When it comes to Mini PCs, Geekom is a name that most of you will be familiar with as they offer a wide range of solutions based on AMD and Intel hardware.

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. Gen 4 SSDs are now available at very affordable prices while offering great performance. TeamGroup is the creator […]

MultiVersus has got to be the textbook example of how even the most recognizable properties don't guarantee the success of a live service game. Launched in open beta back in July 2022, complete with microtransactions, the platform fighter developed by Player First Game was abruptly taken down the following year. While the dwindling number of players since launch may have played a part in taking the game offline, the developer assured that MultiVersus would be coming back in 2024 better than ever with a lot of changes based on player feedback. MultiVersus is now back online and apparently out of beta, […]

At this point, it feels like every horror franchise of note has been made into an asymmetric multiplayer game or, at the very least, been fed to the genre-dominating beast that is Dead by Daylight. Perhaps because of this, IllFonic (a studio that’s tackled the likes of Friday the 13th, Predator, and Ghostbusters in the past) has had to dig pretty deep for their latest, dredging up Killer Klowns from Outer Space, a video store “classic” few have actually watched. Killer Klowns from Outer Space may not be the hottest horror IP out there in 2024, but hey, it’s the […]

2024 is, without a doubt, the best year the Prince of Persia series has had in a very long time. The indefinite delay of The Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake made more than a few fans worry about the fate of the entire series, especially at a time when almost all big publishers are focusing on their core IPs due to financial matters, the release of Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown proved how the series is not only alive but also extremely well. A feeling that is further compounded by The Rogue Prince of Persia, an […]

When NVMe heat sinks first hit the market, many of the units included with certain motherboards were gimmicks and actually resulted in higher SSD temperatures. Cooling m.2 drives wasn't really a concern back then, but today's PCI-e Gen 5 SSDs aren't able to sustain their peak performance without some form of cooling. The controller found in many PCI-e 5 SSDs currently on the market is Phison's E26, which has a TJ Max (maximum temperature) of 125C - much hotter than previous generation products. With temperatures up on modern SSDs, the need to keep modern Gen 5 SSDs cool has resulted […]

Silverstone's Hydrogon D140 performs moderately well with reasonable noise levels, and has an installation process that system builders will appreciate, but it doesn't perform as well as other coolers in its price range.

We have established that Lofree makes some really cool keyboards. The Lofree Flow and Edge are two of the best low-profile keyboards that I have had the pleasure to use. So, when Lofree asked me if I would like to test out the Lofree Block 98, I agreed without a second thought. Block 98 is perhaps one of the most unique modern-day keyboards, and for one simple reason. It takes inspiration from the legendary IBM Model M and adds a lot of modern tech that allows it to compete with other modern-day keyboards. What you get is something that is pretty […]

Magnetic keyboards with Hall Effect and Rapid Trigger technology are slowly making waves in the market, and with every new rendition, we see something that is better than the other. There is no shortage of some excellent gaming keyboards available in the market like the Polar 65 by Arbiter Studio, Akko MOD007B HE, and the legendary Wooting 60HE+. So, what exactly do you have to offer to make the overall user experience even better? Well, the MonsGeek M1W-SP HE takes everything from the best and sprinkles its own character on the top and easily becomes one of the best magnetic […]

Everyone and their pets know that there is no shortage of great peripherals in the market--one has to be on the lookout for them. When someone talks about Wooting, the first thing that comes to mind is how this is one of the companies that has managed to make magnetic switches a lot more mainstream than they used to be. The original Wooting Two is considered to be the keyboard that managed to kickstart the trend, but I believe that it is the Wooting 60HE that pushed the company to the heights it is now standing at, and today, I […]

It seemed like we’d never see another game like Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. While there have been plenty of Paper Mario games over the past couple of decades, Nintendo has intentionally steered the series away from the RPG mechanics, original characters, and sharp-edged humor it was initially known for. As a result, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door has taken on a certain symbolic importance to some spurned fans even though it wasn’t a particularly big hit in its day. Needless to say, it came as a bit of a shock when Nintendo announced a full remake of the game […]

Cambridge-based game developer Ninja Theory has produced praiseworthy yet commercially unsuccessful games for most of its history, ever since the days of Kung Fu Chaos, a 3D fighting party game made exclusively for the original Xbox console. The same was true for Heavenly Sword, an action/adventure developed for Sony as a PlayStation 3 exclusive, Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, a multiplatform release published by Bandai Namco, and DmC: Devil May Cry, which was also controversial among fans for the changes it made to the beloved CAPCOM series. Ironically, Ninja Theory found its big break when it opted to self-publish a […]

There is no shortage of good power banks in the market, and every day, we see something new. I recently reviewed the mighty Shargeek 170, which is capable of delivering 170W of output and is one of the most impressive power banks I have used in a long, long time. However, carrying a massive power bank with us at all times is not something that is always ideal for a lot of reasons. Power banks are big and heavy, and can easily take a lot of space in our bags. Sometimes, you need something small enough that fit in your […]

There is no shortage of great cases available for our modern-day smartphones. Things get even better if you are talking about flagship phones like the Galaxy S24 Ultra or the iPhone 15 Pro Max. Pitaka, a case-maker famous for its Aramid Fiber cases, has just released the new Pitaka MagEZ Case Pro 4 for a number of devices. While this might look like something that has been done to the end, Pitaka has made some changes that I am really in love with, and when they sent me this case, I was more than happy with how it turned out.
