ASUS ROG Destrier Ergo review: The Sci-Fi ergonomic chair!

ASUS ROG Destrier Ergo review: The Sci-Fi ergonomic chair!

Even though I’ve been using gaming chairs for years, I’m not generally too fond of them. That’s because some of their features, like lumbar and neck support, are usually poorly designed and don’t really help in improving your health and posture. They’re mostly marketing gimmicks, not real, well-thought-out features. However, there are exceptions, like the futuristic ASUS ROG Destrier Ergo (SL400), which received many innovation

Intel Core i7-13700K review: High performance, balanced pricing

Starting with the 12th Gen and continuing with the 13th Generation Raptor Lake architecture, Intel has some of the best desktop processors. One of the most attractive models is the Intel Core i7-13700K, a CPU that can reach 5.40 GHz in boost mode, with 16 cores, 24 threads, and excellent pricing.

TP-Link Archer AX23 review: Wi-Fi 6 for everybody!

The market is flooded with new Wi-Fi 6 routers at all prices. In recent months, I tested mostly mid-range and premium routers.

Kingston FURY Beast DDR4 RGB Special Edition review

Kingston FURY Beast DDR4 RGB Special Edition review

Although DDR5 memory is slowly but surely increasing its adoption rate and lowering its price, DDR4 memory is still a choice for many. While raw data transfer speeds offered by DDR4 can’t match DDR5, the advantage of tighter timings (lower latencies) and the costs are still important aspects to consider in favor of DDR4. If you’re looking for the best DDR4 memory for your next

ADATA XPG Spectrix D50 DDR4 RGB review: Fast and affordable!

While DDR5 memory kits are slowly taking over the world, there are still many who prefer DDR4 modules. Whether it’s because of their better latencies or because of their price, you, too, might prefer DDR4 instead of DDR5.
