KitGuru: CyberPowerPC Ultra XT3D Prebuilt Desktop Review
The Ultra XT3D prebuilt desktop from CyberPowerPC features a spec list straight from the top of the AMD gaming lineup. It features a Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor and a Radeon RX 9070 XT graphics card, paired with 32GB of memory. This could make for a very compelling option for anyone looking to pick up a prebuilt gaming desktop while breaking away from Intel and Nvidia components. Today we put the Ultra XT3D through its paces to see just how much performance it has in its locker!

Utilising a VA LCD panel with a 1500R curvature, it delivers a wide 178-degree viewing angle and a high 4000:1 contrast ratio, enhanced by SmartContrast for dynamic image adjustments.

APH Networks: Epomaker Magcore 87 Review
I sometimes question why certain items come in certain quantities. For example, why do we buy eggs by the dozen? It is not like chickens lay twelve eggs at a time, yet this is typical in North America. I was recently talking in a group chat and one friend mentioned she was able to get glow sticks by hundreds or even thousands. It seemed like everyone else was not fazed by this, so I asked why she was able to acquire so many glow sticks and what she was even doing with it. Turns out at the optometrist office she was at, they were purchasing many of these glowing instruments to give out to kids that went to see the eye doctor. Of course, it is clear she is involved in something dark and nefarious. It is still interesting that there is somewhere that offers glowing rods in this quantity at a time, but it is also reasonable given that someone must be selling them in bulk. In a similar line of wonderment, today we have the Epomaker Magcore 87, which hosts the same name as hockey player legend Sidney Crosby. However, the first thing I found funny was how Epomaker advertises this as 88-keys. Instead, the “87” seems to indicate this a reference for the tenkeyless size. Even so, what does this Magcore 87 bring to the table, and does this number indicate anything else other than its form factor? Let us read on to find out!
TechPowerUp: G-Wolves Hati-S Ultra 8K Review
Sharing its shape with the original Hati-S, the ambidextrous Hati-S Ultra 8K cuts down the weight even further to just 31 g. PixArt's PAW3950 sensor is combined with Huano main button switches, 8000 Hz wireless polling is supported, and up to 80 hours of battery life are advertised.
