IgorsLAB: ASRock Steel Legend Radeon RX 9060XT 16 GB Review - White and silent with a touch of RGB
With the ASRock Steel Legend RX 9060 XT 16 GB, another variant of the new AMD graphics card is on the test bench today, which clearly stands out visually from the usual uniform gray with its white cooler design. I was particularly curious to see how this model would fare in comparison to the two cards already tested, because in addition to the external appearance, I was particularly interested in the technical details under the hood. Of course, I will once again go into all the details that are often left out of the usual reviews.

Neowin: Gaming mouse review: Keychron Lemokey G2 8K Wireless, high performance, light in weight
The G2 from Keychron's Lemokey gaming arm offers up to 8K sensor tracking, though it's just as good with the battery-saving 2K mode, and offers configuration convenience via Keychron Launcher.

APH Networks: Netac ZX20L 512GB Review
One thing I have always enjoyed doing is browsing Calgary inner city house listings. For what appears to be an old 1960s bungalow on the outside, many of them have nothing about it on the inside that is still mid-century. From the kitchen to the washrooms to the bedrooms, the house would have been completely stripped down to the studs and renovated from there. Now, why are there so many of these houses? Inner city neighborhoods are desirable compared to new suburbs because people like established areas, which often feature convenient access to nearby amenities like public transport, shopping centers, and prestigious schools. This drives up land value, and it is relatively cost effective to renovate an existing building to the latest standards. Of course, there are drawbacks. For one, you are still stuck with mostly the same floor plan, so you are not gaining any floor space. There are also structural things you cannot change, so you will have to live with things like low ceiling heights from houses of that era. The list goes on, and while these renovated residences are desirable to many, I would much rather just knock the house down completely and build a new one from the ground up -- which is also a popular option. When it comes to houses, there are many things you can change on the inside to make them as close to new as possible, but if you do not start from scratch, you will also carry forward any of its structural limitations. The Netac ZX20L we are reviewing today is, in a lot of ways, analogous to this. The inside has been updated with the USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 interface, but otherwise looks exactly the same as the ZX10, a product whose appearance I described as "outdated and cheap" in 2024. Is the ZX20L's interface upgrade enough to convince us to overlook its appearance? Read on to find out!
