KitGuru: SilverStone Alta G1M – mATX Gets Serious

KitGuru covered the news when SilverStone launched the Alta G1M and now we have a sample of this intriguing Micro-ATX case to review. As you will see this case is rather unusual and has a tower form factor with a huge 180mm fan in the base that can spin up to 1,200rpm. Whether you love it or hate it, you won’t be bored.

ETA Prime: A Mystery Spec Gaming PC From Walmart! Can It Game?

So I bought this $750 iBuyPower gaming PC from Walmart without even knowing what CPU and GPU it has! Was really hoping for at least a GTX 1650 but that's not...

KitGuru: ASUS ROG Ryujin II 360 AIO Cooler Review

Sporting a huge 3.5” LCD screen atop the AIO pump block, the ASUS ROG Ryujin II 360 continues a trend set by the original ROG Ryujin. This is the year 2021, where superfluous accessories are all the rage. So we are just left asking, ‘why wouldn’t you want a sizable LCD screen on your AIO cooler?’ Will the £279.99 price tag be a turn-off to many? Let’s find out.

IgorsLAB: Intel Alder Lake Mobility CPU benchmarks leaked: Faster than the Apple M1 Max, AMD's 5980HX and Intel's 11980HK are downright eaten up

I have something very interesting for my readers today and I am taking over the article from my friend Usman Pirzada more or less in the original

KitGuru: Iiyama G-Master GB2570HSU 24.5in 165Hz Monitor Review

In all the excitement about curved and 4K screens, it’s easy to forget that a fast, high quality Full HD screen could be all your gaming needs, particularly if you mostly play first-person shooters. Prices have been going down on high-refresh screens, and now 144Hz panels are almost in the “budget” category. Iiyama’s G-Master GB2570HSU is one rung up from that at 165Hz, but still costs a reasonable £220.

KitGuru: DDR4 Round-Up: Corsair, G.SKILL, Kingston, PNY, Predator Tested

With DDR5 just around the corner and ready to steal the limelight, we thought it would be a good opportunity for us to look at a few different DDR4 kits with a variety of different operating specifications. We have mainstream, flashy bling, and uber-high-frequency kits from Corsair, G.SKILL, Kingston, PNY, and Predator.

KitGuru: Crucial P5 Plus 1TB SSD Review

Among the well-known brands offering PCIe 4.0 SSD since day one, one name was noticeable by its absence… but that has changed with the arrival of Crucial’s P5 Plus, a drive aimed more at offering value for money than bleeding-edge performance. We review the 1TB model, priced at just under £160.
