Biostar Racing Z270GT9 Motherboard Review

With six PCIe x16 slots, onboard 256GB SSD, and 10Gb Ethernet, the Biostar Racing Z270GT9 could probably win a value award based on just two of its three features.

Cooler Master Cosmos II 25th Anniversary Edition Review

We review the Cooler Master Cosmos II 25th Anniversary Edition. The chassis with its familiar looks is an Ultra tower, yep 70 cm / 28" in height. It looks, feels and breathes the same stuff same as the 2012 model but now comes with a long requested feature as it is a tempered glass side panel version.

Fierce PC Imperial Hive Ryzen 1700 + GTX 1080 Ti Review

Are you ready to take your gaming to the next level? I'm sure many of you are! Today, we'll be ticking off a few “firsts” here at eTeknix, as we review our first system from Fierce PC, as well as our first system review featuring the Ryzen 1700X, and first with a GTX 1080 Ti. What's interesting is that we've already reviewed many of the individual components used in this system, so we know they're pretty rocking, but never before together in this configuration.

FSP CMT210 Mid-Tower ATX PC Case Review

I’ll be reviewing FSP’s first ever PC chassis with their CMT210 gaming oriented ATX mid-tower PC case. The CMT210 aims to provide those on a budget a modern PC chassis with lots of cooling capabilities, a sleek interior layout providing lots of expansion abilities including showcasing your SSDs up front, support for both tall air coolers and water cooling, support for lengthy high-end graphics cards, and closing it up with a clear side panel. All of this can be had for a competitive $59.99 USD and I’ll be testing the FSP CMT210 to see if it makes your money go the extra mile and is a worthy platform to invest in.

HyperX Pulsefire FPS Mouse Review

Over the last few months, we have seen HyperX gradually enlarging its scope and manufacturing new products not typically associated with its brand. First was the award-winning Alloy FPS keyboard, and today we are looking at the company’s first mouse – the Pulsefire FPS. Designed to be a simple, no-frills gaming mouse, is it a good buy at £49.99?

Noctua NH-D15 SE-AM4 CPU Cooler Review

Noctua makes some of the best air CPU coolers out there.  We know this because we've tested many of their coolers over the years.  With AMD's Ryzen launch we were brought a new socket (AM4) so Noctua decided to release three Special Edition coolers just for it.  These include the NH-D15 SE-AM4, NH-U12S SE-AM4, and NH-L9x65 SE-AM4.  We actually have all three coolers on hand, but will be testing the NH-D15 SE-AM4 first.  This cooler has a dual-tower, dual-fan design featuring six copper heatpipes, two NF-A15 140mm fans, and Noctua's SecuFirm2 mounting system so installation should be pretty easy.  Let's see what this cooler is all about!

Philips Fidelio E6 Review

Surround sound without the hassle. We Millennials seem to be busy folk with little time available to slouch in front of the TV, but let's be honest, after a long week at work few things are better than winding down with a good movie. It's a favourite pastime for many, but to do it properly you need a few things - a quality TV or projector, a decent surround system and a large tub of popcorn.

Some of those criteria are easy to meet, but surround sound can be a stumbling block - after all, who wants wires draping around their living room? If only there was a speaker system that was stylish, powerful and able to serve 5.1 surround sound as and when needed. Turns out there is and it's called the Philips Fidelio E6.

Samsung Galaxy Book 12 Review: OLED Display Meets S Pen And Portability

Hybrid 2-in-1 tablet convertible devices like Samsung's new Galaxy Book 12 are a tough gig. Striking a balance between ultimate portability, performance, and battery life is not easy when it comes to the well-under 2 pound device class of products.

With Intel's Kaby Lake 7th gen series processors hitting full stride, competitive solutions like the Samsung Galaxy Book 12 we'll show you here today are boasting serious horsepower in a larger tablet convertible form factor. Not to mention, they're here today and shipping.

The good news is, you know Samsung brings that bright, punchy OLED goodness with tablet displays, and this time we've got 12-inches of premium screen real estate to work with. Take a quick gander a the full specs, then we'll buckle-up for a test drive in this new Galaxy...

Synology RT1900ac AC1900 Wireless Gigabit Router Review

The Synology RT1900ac AC1900 wireless Gigabit router is a great all in one networking device. The standard wireless router features are all there as you would expect, but the addition of the Synology SRM software is what make this an above average wireless router. I have enjoyed using Synology's embedded OS (DSM) on their NAS products for a few years now, and the SRM (Synology Router Manager) is fantastic as well.

XFX RX 570 4GB RS

After getting a good look at the RX 580 at launch and checking out a second card as well as Crossfire performance I took a little break from video cards but today I’m back to revisit the new 500 series cards. I’m going to check out the RX 570, specifically the XFX RX 570 4GB RS to see how it compares to the RX 580, RX 480, and the RX 470 along with Nvidia’s offerings in that same price range. Not everyone needs the world's fastest video card, in fact, most people are picking up mid range cards so I’m curious to see if the new RX 570 has the performance to be a good buy for those not looking to spend the extra money on an RX 580.
