Neowin: GEEKOM A5 Pro 2026 Edition review: Tiny AMD Mini PC for your office at under $600
GEEKOM is back with another AMD Mini PC that first came out in 2023 but has since seen a refresh last year, and now a third revision and a new CPU, which they are calling the "2026 Edition". Anyway, since they offered it for review, I decided to put it through its paces.

APH Networks: SOUNDPEATS Cove Pro Review
With the Winter Olympics now finished, the one thing I realized how much I missed was international hockey featuring the best players available. Even this has some caveats, as there is no team representing Russia due to the current events in the world, but even still it is amazing to see the top players against each other representing their nation. I hope we get more international tournaments in the future, such as the World Cup of Hockey, but only if it involves players from around the world and not just those in the NHL. The games are much faster than without elite NHL players, but there are also notable differences between each team. For one, there are the obvious powerhouse nations like Canada, United States, Sweden, and Finland, whose rosters are filled with high caliber skilled players. However, due to the difference in skilled players, other teams rely on playing a set of systems well instead of solely through star power. This team interdependence and synergy can lead to better performances than expected. I will always cheer for Canada, but I was impressed by some underdog nations, as most games had a competitive nature. Today, we have the SOUNDPEATS Cove Pro, which is the latest wireless over-ear headphones in the company's lineup. This company might not be a powerhouse name in the industry, but we have seen solid products across their offerings. How does today's Cove Pro stack up, and can it compete with the best? Let us read on to find out!

MadShrimps: Epomaker Magcore 87 Gaming Keyboard Review
Epomaker Magcore 87 is a pioneer in terms of technology thanks to the included Kailh Box Inductive switches, operating on a different principle than HE keyboards, is much more durable and less prone to interference. The manufacturer enclosed the hot-swappable board with multiple sound-dampening layers, while the gasket-mount helps with comfort, acting as a small suspension mechanism. The aluminum casing ensures durability, while the 8000Hz and the scan rate of 32kHz per key ensures the requirements will be satisfied no matter if you are a casual or professional gamer.
