APH Networks: SilverStone Grandia GD09-C Review

Last week, I finished another Korean drama from 2016 called Signal. The plot surrounds a police profiler in the cold case division that works with three others to solve cold cases or reopen cases that were closed incorrectly. However, in the first episode, he finds a radio that connects him to another detective that was on the police force several years before. As they continue to communicate, the profiler ends up investigating the past cases that the past detective had worked on in order to find the solution. Overall, I have to say the episodes kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time, while the last episode confused me in an Inception-like fashion. However, the other surprise to me was the fact this drama was from 2016. This came out the same year Descendants of the Sun came out, which both my colleague Jonathan Kwan and I both watched back when it launched (Just to clarify: Not together, just at the same time, haha. - Editor). I was surprised with how old Signal is, but I also think it has aged well. Four years later, I would definitely recommend this drama to my friends. From what I hear, the second season to Signal should be coming soon, so I do await this drama. On the other hand, the SilverStone Grandia GD09-C is a case that dates back even further than Signal, with the original revision going back as early as 2014. Now that we are six years later, we have the updated revision with a Type-C input. How does this case fare in 2020 and what are some updates we have here? Let us read on to find out!

OverclockersClub: Immortals Fenyx Rising Review

Assassin's Creed: Odyssey took players to ancient Greece when it released in 2018, which means that for years prior it brought its developers to that setting. While doing research into the mythology of that setting, the developers had some ideas for another game, and these ideas were ultimately approved, allowing the new IP of Immortals Fenyx Rising to be created. Though the title has changed since it was first announced, the game still takes us not to ancient Greece, but into the mythology itself, where players can meet the gods, fight the monsters, and create their own story to be told.

KitGuru: Palit RTX 3060 Ti GamingPro OC Review

Despite launching at the beginning of the month, we are yet to look at a custom RTX 3060 Ti graphics card – the subsequent launches of first the AMD RX 6900 XT and then Cyberpunk 2077 kept our attention elsewhere. That changes today however, as we assess the Palit RTX 3060 Ti GamingPro OC. With a hefty factory overclock and a power target that is 40W higher than the reference spec, what can this card offer to the mid-range market?

9to5Mac: AirPods Max Unboxing & Review: The pinnacle of preposterous pricing

I’ve been using the AirPods Max all week and I’ve got a lot of thoughts. But my biggest takeaway so far is that these headphones are overpriced. I like them a lot for various reasons, but they are 100% overpriced. Here's why.
