Hardware Reviews

Review The Lenovo LOQ Tower (Gen 9) is Lenovo's most affordable tower PC designed for gaming, but it's overpriced and under-featured compared to the competition.

Review SanDisk's WD_BLACK SN8100 PCIe 5.0 NVMe M.2 2280 "game drive" SSD delivers double the read speeds of my Gen 4 favorite, but comes with a trade-off.

Review After two weeks using the ROG Aura Monitor Light Bar, I've found that this accessory is decent overall, but doesn't have good enough RGB features to really make it stand out.

Review The HP ZBook Ultra 14 (G1a) is one of the most powerful 14-inch laptops ever made, designed to handle intensive AI workloads in a thin-and-light form factor.

Review I've been playing my favorite games and running benchmarks on the ASUS ROG Strix SCAR 18 for a few weeks. It's a great laptop, but the RTX 5090 doesn't impress.

Review Lenovo redesigned its popular Legion Pro 7i gaming laptop alongside new Intel and NVIDIA hardware, and the result is a capable, immensely powerful machine.

Review The ASUS AirVision M1 AR glasses are functional and complete, but are wildly overpriced and fall far behind the competition. I don't know why they're $700.

Review The HP EliteBook Ultra 14 is one of the best laptops I've ever had the pleasure of reviewing, but it's ridiculously expensive, even among enterprise devices

Review I just upgraded my ROG Ally battery using a new kit from JSAUX. It's a pretty easy process that gives notable results. My review.

Review I can hold the Geekom Mini IT13 in my hand, but it offers the performance and ports I need for everyday workloads on Windows 11.
