Arka Mukherjee0 CommentsReviewsDesktop, Hardware and Devices, NZXT

NZXT is a renowned name in the PC hardware market. While they have ventured into high-end cooling, cases, fans, accessories, and pre-builts in the past,, the company recently branched out into the motherboard, microphone, mouse, and keyboard market as well. They launched their first gaming mouse in May this year, called the Lift. NZXT was kind enough to send the Lift gaming mouse over for review. We ran the mouse through its paces and have some interesting insights to share. Pre-delivery The NZXT Lift gaming mouse (Image via NZXT) The NZXT Lift is marketed as an ambidextrous gaming mouse.

Antec P120 Crystal Mid-tower Gaming Case Review

Arka Mukherjee0 CommentsReviewsDesktop, Hardware and Devices

Antec’s P120 Crystal is a mid-tower computer case mainly targeted at liquid cooling users. The case does borrow a fair amount of inspiration from Lian Li’s O11 Dynamic, one of the most popular computer cases to exist. But, it adds a lot of unique elements to make it the P120. The case does have a lot of good points. It is cheaper than the O11, and is completely white, with not a single clue of black. But, does it live up to being a worthy competitor of the O11 Dynamic? Let’s find out. A huge thanks to Antec for sponsoring…

Cooler Master HAF 500 Mid-Tower Case Review

Arka Mukherjee0 CommentsReviewsCooler Master, Desktop, Hardware and Devices

Case Review Cooler Master is an experienced case maker. Their High AirFlow (HAF) lineup is a classic that focuses on extreme air circulation. We have seen some great cases in the lineup. These include the HAF 912, a value-for-money king, and the cubical HAF X. After quite some time of being silent, the company has rebooted its classic series with two new cases. This includes the more budget-oriented HAF 500 and the more extreme HAF 700 Evo. Today we have the black variant of the HAF 500 for review with us. Many thanks to Cooler Master for sending a review…

MSI MAG B660M Mortar WiFi DDR5 Review

Arka Mukherjee0 CommentsReviewsDesktop, Hardware and Devices, MSI

Introduction Intel has always followed up with their cheaper and more affordable B series of motherboards a few months after the Z and H series of motherboards hit the market. Alder Lake-S wasn’t an exception to this formula, and we have the B660 motherboards right at the beginning of 2022. The B660 does little improvement over the last-gen B560. It supports DDR5 memory and PCIe Gen 5.0 graphics cards and storage devices. Support for memory overclocking was brought forward to this platform after a critical reception with its introduction to the B560 platform. MSI was kind enough to send their…

Arka Mukherjee0 CommentsReviewsDeepcool, Desktop, Hardware and Devices

Deepcool AK400 Air Cooler Review Deepcool has consistently offered quality products to the tech market at a very steep price tag. Their AK620 dual tower air cooler released last year is a prime example of this. Their latest offering, the AK400 is based on the same formula, but cheaper, to fit a much larger market. The AK400 is a smaller brother of the AK620. It is a single tower air cooler, with a low profile design to fit the rather unique market on a budget. This cooler ticks a lot of requirements of the audience it is targeting with its…

Logitech G Pro X Superlight Review

Arka Mukherjee0 CommentsReviewsDesktop, Hardware and Devices, Logitech

The G Pro X Superlight is one of the most popular mice to have ever been released. Following the footsteps of its predecessor, the G Pro Wireless, this mouse copies what works but in a lighter form factor. But, this thing is also $150. Now, I did have this thing for a little over a week, so here we go. Before I begin, thanks to Hardware Corpus for sending this review unit. Unboxing Logitech does not follow the extravagant way with the unboxing of this mouse. But the box lifts slowly and it has some resistance. This slowly builds up…
