Last year Nvidia announced the Big Format Gaming Display that were 65-inches and capable of 4K HDR at 120 Hz. No products have materialised from that announcement in 2018, but it looks like HP will be one of the first to deliver. The monster HP Omen X Emperium uses a 64.5-inch 8-bit AMVA panel featuring…
Alienware may be the brand that is synonymous with gaming laptops but not all of us can afford one, so Dell has introduced the Grange of laptops that reduce the cost of entry for gaming laptops while retaining the superb design and build quality found on other Dell and Alienware laptops. The range includes the…
AMD is due to announce a range of new products at CES next Wednesday which almost certainly will include the latest AMD Ryzen 3000 series processors and possibly a GPU announcement. Listings for the AMD’s Ryzen 3000 series processors have appeared on e-katalog, a Russian retailer, revealing what could be the specifications of AMD’s upcoming Ryzen…
I have mainly reviewed cases for Thermaltake in the past year, but they have a sub-brand called TT Premium which focusses on gaming peripherals. The TT Premium X1 RGB gaming keyboard is a feature-rich mechanical keyboard with Cherry MX Blue switches and is currently available on Scan, Overclockers and Novatech for just £99. For some…
The Predator Aethon 500 is the second peripheral I have reviewed from Acer of the past week and is the first mechanical keyboard Acer has produced. The Acer Predator Aethon 500 ticks most of the box’s gamers want out of a keyboard nowadays, there is fully programmable RGB, programmable macro keys, mechanical switches, media keys…
Over the past few years, I have mainly reviewed laptops and desktops from Acer. Their peripheral side of the business is relatively new as far as I am aware. The Acer Predator Cestus 500 is an 8-button programmable RGB gaming mouse priced at around £80 on Currys and Argos. It features a semi-modular design allowing…
I have reviewed a LOT of Thermaltake cases recently, so it is nice to get something a little different to try out with the new TteSports Shock Pro 7.1 RGB Gaming Headset. Tt eSPORTS is a relatively new subdivision of Thermaltake focussing on peripherals and accessories for competitive gamers. The Tt eSports Shock Pro 7.1…
During my time with the well-priced entry-level Nitro N50 gaming PC, I was using the Acer Nitro RG270 gaming monitor that was sent with it. This is an attractive slim bezel AMD FreeSync enabled 27-inch monitor running at 1920 x 1080p with a refresh rate of 75 Hz. Some gaming communities might immediately dismiss a…
The View 37 ARGB is a curious design from Thermaltake, shaking things up for a purely rectangular design used for most other cases on the market. While still pretty much a rectangle, they have taken the popular windowed side panel design and wrap it around to the top panel giving both an elegant design and…
As the gaming industry has grown so has all the accessories you can get, back when I was young I gamed on a wooden dining chair with no ergonomics at all. When I first invested in an OK chair I was fat, and over the course of a few years I broke several of them…
My recent review of the Thermaltake A500 chassis highlighted that it was a departure from Thermaltake’s preference of all glass all RGB design choices. Well, the Thermaltake View 71 could be the poster child of Thermaltake’s recent design philosophy. This isn’t a bad thing though, RGB and tempered glass are massively popular at the moment,…
