KitGuru: Fractal Design Torrent Compact – This will cause an argument

When KitGuru reviewed the Fractal Design Torrent with its funky 180mm fans we had mixed views. Indeed, we were so undecided we took a second look at the Torrent and concluded we had been correct in the first place that Torrent was interesting, effective and rather large for our tastes. So imagine our delight when Fractal Design announced the Torrent Compact which promises more of the 180mm goodness in a smaller chassis.

KitGuru: Fractal Design Torrent Nano – Dark and Moody

Fractal Design struck out in a new direction with their substantial Torrent case and its support for up to four 180mm fans, and today we see the launch of two smaller Torrents. We have covered the mid-sized Compact and here we are reviewing the Nano which supports a Mini-ITX motherboard with an ATX power supply, so Nano is small but not as tiny as its name might suggest.

KitGuru: NZXT H1 (V2 2022) Mini-ITX Review

I think we can all agree that the NZXT H1 mini-ITX chassis had more than its fair share of ups and downs since its release almost two years ago. The case received positive reviews at launch with its smart design allowing novice users to easily build a mini-ITX system. Soon after the launch, there were problems with PCIe risers failing and, in some cases catching fire. Today, NZXT launches a new ITX case aiming to put all of that controversy in the past – but is the new model any good?

IgorsLAB: The two faces of the GeForce RTX 3050 8GB - different chips and different thirst | Leak

Only 115 instead of 130 watts TBP: The GeForce RTX 3050 8GB will, that is for sure, come soon with two different GPUs, which definitely makes a difference.

KitGuru: Sharkoon Skiller SGH50 Gaming Headset & DAC Pro S V2

In a double bill review, today we take a look at the Sharkoon Skiller SGH50 gaming headset and the DAC Pro S V2. With both products priced below £100, we put them through their paces today and assess audio quality, ease of use and much more. Could this prove to be a reasonably priced combination for audio purists?

KitGuru: Corsair K70 RGB Pro Review

Corsair’s latest addition to the K70 family has arrived, but is the new K70 RGB Pro model as ‘Pro’ as the name would suggest? We discuss whether the new keyboard offers anything new over its predecessors and if it is worth upgrading to if you already have a K70 model.
