TechPowerUp: ASUS GeForce RTX 3070 TUF Gaming OC Review

In our ASUS GeForce RTX 3070 TUF Gaming review we find that the card comes with an amazing cooler that achieves whisper-quiet noise levels and incredibly low temperatures at the same time. A dual-BIOS feature is included, too, as well as a second HDMI output.

TechPowerUp: EVGA GeForce RTX 3070 FTW3 Ultra Review

The EVGA RTX 3070 FTW3 Ultra is the best overclocker in our testing today because of a generous power limit increase to 270 W that can be adjusted even further. The large triple-slot, triple-fan cooler achieves excellent temperatures and features fan stop.

LanOC Reviews: EVGA RTX 3070 XC3 Black

On Tuesday I took a look at the new RTX 3070 Founders Edition as a look at Nvidia’s new Ampere-based GPU ahead of today's launch. Well in addition to the launch, today is also when the embargo drops for aftermarket RTX 3070’s and I’m lucky enough to have the RTX 3070 XC3 Black from EVGA on hand to check out. The RTX 3070 Founders Edition performed well, but today I’m excited to see what an overclock and a different cooler can do. Especially with EVGA going with a more traditional full-length PCB and cooler here over the short PCB that the Founders Edition had to support their unique blow-through design.

Anandtech: Best Intel Motherboards: October 2020

Looking ahead into October, Intel not only announced its financial results for Q3 2020, but it also revealed that it plans to release its latest Rocket Lake CPUs with PCIe 4.0 sometime in Q1 2021. Along with Rocket Lake, there will be a wave of new 500-series LGA1200 motherboards to accompany it, but until then, Z490 is its current flagship chipset and will be for months to come. Its time to take a look at our Intel-based motherboard selections for October 2020.

APH Networks: Crucial X6 2TB Review

Towards the end of summer, a bunch of my friends and I went out of the city to a popular sunflower maze near a town called Bowden here in southern Alberta. Before we were to hit the highway to return home, we were chatting in the parking lot about my friend's severely damaged SUV I discussed in the introduction of my Philips Fidelio X3 review a few weeks ago. For some reason, the topic of carrying people in the back of her SUV came up, and another friend jumped in to see if she could fit in there. Sure enough, she did, and I closed the hatch on her as a joke. Now, this may seem unbelievable, but I completely forgot about the fact I locked my friend in the car immediately after I closed the hatch. Five minutes later, I hear some banging and yelling from the SUV, and that was when I realized my friend was still inside. I opened the hatch, and sure enough, she was mad and gave me a solid punch on my shoulder. Exactly how I could forget so quickly about somebody is perplexing, but there are some things where having it and completely forgetting about it is actually a good thing. External storage is one of these things. A good external drive should be compact and reliable enough that you can simply plug it in and forget about it. When it does its job, it should be fast and store everything you throw at it. Furthermore, you should be able to purchase one at such a competitive price that you do not remember how much you paid. Crucial recently released a product that aims to fulfill all these requirements, the X6. With capacity as big as 2TB, how well will this external USB SSD stack up? Read on to find out!
