The Guru of 3D: Cougar OmnyX review
Cougar’s OmnyX chassis is built around the concept of balance and symmetry, both visually and thermally. The 90° rotated motherboard design enables the company’s “Omnidirectional Dynamic Flow System,” which maintains equal airflow regardless of orientation.

eTeknix: Valkyrie V240 Lite AIO CPU Cooler Review
Valkyrie is rapidly becoming one of the hottest PC brands, with a range of award-winning coolers, cases, peripherals, and more hitting the market that continue to impress. We're big fans of what they do, and that was taken to the next level once we visited their factory and saw the level of care and quality they put into their products. While the new V240 Lite is an entry-level all-in-one CPU liquid cooler, rather than one of their more extreme products, I'm still excited to see what it has to offer.

TechPowerUp: Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 G60SD Review - A Matte Twist
Samsung’s Odyssey OLED G6 G60SD pairs a 27-inch QD-OLED panel with a 360 Hz refresh rate, sub-1 ms response, and a practical matte finish instead of glossy glare. It’s fast, accurate, and surprisingly affordable for an OLED of this caliber.
KitGuru: Philips 34B2U6603CH 34in Ultrawide Monitor Review (1440p 120Hz)
Gaming monitors are mostly about quality and response times, but for business users features like a variety of connectivity options can be equally important. The Philips 34B2U6603CH is the first monitor to hit our labs testing bench with Thunderbolt 4 built in, potentially streamlining KVM abilities when you hook up a notebook. But it's also a 34in ultrawide curved screen with support for refresh rates up to 120Hz.

HotHardware: ASUS ROG Xbox Ally X Review: Excellent But Evolutionary Handheld PC Gaming
We present to you the ASUS ROG Xbox Ally X, the first PC gaming device to be branded "Xbox" that isn't actually an Xbox. That is to say that you can't play Xbox games on this system unless they support Play Anywhere, which simply means that the game has a PC version and cross-save support. Indeed, we're getting it out of the way up front—if you have a big pile of Xbox games going back to the OG machine from 2001, you can't play them on this system.

Hardware Busters: Corsair HX1200i Shift ATX v3.1 PSU Review
The Corsair HXi Shift series will coexist with the HXi line, with the major difference being the side modular panel, thanks to the different platform at the internals, allowing for the “shift” of the modular panel.

IgorsLAB: LincPlus LincStation S1 NAS Review - Out-of-the-box with Unraid and finally also 3.5"
We have already tested two all-SSD NAS from this manufacturer, and with this new model, an option with recording capabilities for HDDs has now been added to the range. As the established Unraid operating system is again used here instead of a proprietary solution, the sections on operation and functions are identical to the previous test report.
