eTeknix: ASUS RTX 5090 ASTRAL Liquid Cooled Graphics Card Review

The Nvidia RTX 5090 still stands tall as the king of gaming graphics cards, but of course, it doesn’t come cheap. However, what if you wanted to buy one that’s a lot more expensive, even more powerful, and more extreme in every way? Well, that’s what the ASUS ROG Astral LC RTX 5090 represents. Of course, we’ve already tested the RTX 5090 Founders Edition and the ASUS ASTRAL air-cooled version along with other variants from a variety of brands, so we won’t be re-covering old ground on the capabilities of the GPU core.

APH Networks: Epomaker x AULA F108 Review

Lately, one of my friends has been getting into bouldering. With that, I have come out of hiatus and began my adventure once again. There is something refreshing about starting anew from the very basis. It is important to note I was never actually "good", more so "adequate", when it comes to bouldering. Generally speaking, I knew how it worked, but I did not know how to do it. Back to my friend, I found myself trying to teach them more fundamentals, while relearning them myself in the process. These fundamentals go back towards understanding routes and utilizing footwork to better aid yourself up the wall. This process has also reawakened the part of me that giggles when someone asks how to do something, and I tell them to just go up. In this time, it is interesting to see someone go through the beginning steps I had once taken and it really is refreshing, just like how it is refreshing to go back to the fundamentals of keyboards with a good old full-sized keyboard. Today, we have a collaboration between Epomaker and AULA with the F108, a full-sized mechanical keyboard that offers wireless connectivity. Will the Epomaker x AULA F108 bring me back to the good old days of when I used a full-sized keyboard? Keep reading to find out!
