Acer Predator Triton 500 Laptop Review

Gaming laptops continue to be a bright spot in the PC market, and practically every manufacturer offers some sort of system targeted at gamers. Some of them more successfully target the market than others, offering features that improve gameplay and visuals, and others focus more on what I’ll politely call the “gaming laptop aesthetic” which includes a myriad of multi-colored LEDs, and generally angular design cues. Diving head-first into that subject, today were taking a look at Acers gaming-focused Predator Triton 500 laptop. Although Acer has touched on a couple of the aesthetic design choices, they’ve kept it subtle, and still offer all of the accoutrements expected in a premium gaming laptop design.

Corsair Ironclaw RGB Wireless Gaming Mouse Review

Back in January at CES we were shown some new gaming mice from Corsair, one of which was the Ironclaw RGB. This mouse was designed for people with large hands who use a palm-style grip. With the popularity of the mouse Corsair is giving it their Slipstream Wireless treatment for sub-1ms wireless connectivity. The mouse is pretty much the same as the wired Ironclaw RGB so you are going to get that very unique design, Pixart PMW3391 18,000 DPI sensor, 10 programmable buttons, OMRON switches, and much more. Could this make me retire my Corsair Dark Core RGB? Read on as we find out!

EVGA GeForce GTX 1650 XC Gaming Review

Does Baby Turing make sense? In a strange launch, Nvidia debuted the GeForce GTX 1650 desktop GPU with little fanfare or attention. It is typical that a mid-range graphics card is provided to the press alongside pre-release drivers, to evaluate how well it performs compared to its peers. Armed with such launch-day performance knowledge, enthusiasts are better able to make informed buying decisions.

Nvidia, however, decided to hold back drivers until the official launch, which is highly unusual. Was it because the graphics giant was afraid of negative press emanating from lacklustre performance, or is GTX 1650 a general marketing non-event that doesn't require any pre-launch support? We're finding out today with a review of a partner card in the form of the EVGA GeForce GTX 1650 XC Gaming.

Corsair today is launching two additional members of its gaming mouse family, both of which are variants of existing models.

Gigabyte GTX 1650 Gaming OC 4G Review

Nvidia's latest Turing-based graphics card arrives in the form of GTX 1650 - but is it worth buying? Targeting the 1080p gamer on a budget, Nvidia officially unveiled the GTX 1650 on Tuesday April 23. In an unusual move, though, drivers for the new card were not seeded to press ahead of launch – meaning it has been a frantic couple of days testing this new entry-level GPU. With prices starting at £138, is the GTX 1650 a good buy or are there better options available?

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Review

NVIDIAs latest graphics offering is the GeForce GTX 1650, a new mainstream entry featuring the latest Turing architecture and a low power requirement with cards starting at 75W that will require no external power - though as this is a partner-only launch (no reference card as with the previous GTX 16 series launches) some custom designs will offer factory overclocks and will make use of external power. This MSI GAMING X variant of the new GTX 1650 is one of these higher-power versions that board partners have the option of releasing, equipped with dual fans and a 6-pin power connector, and today well see how it performs at 1080p at its default settings.

The GTX 1650 will start at $149, bringing the current generation of NVIDIAs consumer graphics cards further into the mainstream. It is based on the new TU117 GPU, a smaller Turing core that offers 14 SMs and a total of 896 CUDA cores, down from 1408 cores in the GTX 1660 (TU116).
