REVIEW: Mionix Naos 3200 by David |
Date: 18 May 2012 |
|
Reviewers thoughts
The Mionix Naos 3200 mouse at £38 represents pretty good value for money, although there were some things I felt could have been improved. The mouse has a solid design and build and I really like its sleek black looks. It feels very soft and is comfortable to hold for long periods of gaming due to its rubber moulding. The mouse is quite light and although it doesn’t feature any weight management system, I had no… |
REVIEW: Tt eSPORTS Shock One by James |
Date: 15 May 2012 |
|
Reviewers thoughts
The Tt eSPORTS Shock One headset is a well made and well designed headset, it’s packaging is more than adequate and it comes nicely presented. It also has a host of features that include Virtual surround sound, a noise cancelling mic, interchangeable ear-pads and a smart, well thought out control box. Add to this its ability to be folded for transport and its own velvet carry bag, you can see… |
REVIEW: Cyborg V.7 by David |

Reviewers thoughts
So finally, you have made it to the final thoughts or you have just skipped to the conclusion and missed out on a whole wealth of information!? The Cyborg V.7 really does come with a whole raft of features, so I really did feel I should try to cover them all! The keyboard came well packaged in a nice box and I really liked the overall design and build of the keyboard… |
REVIEW: MSI GTX 680 TWIN FROZR (OC Edition) by James |
Date: 8 May 2012 |
|
Reviewers thoughts
The MSI GTX 680 TWIN FROZR (OC Edition) is the first new Nvidia Kepler based card that we have seen here at pcGameware, and its put in a rather impressive showing. This card is not based on the reference design and comes with the now common MSI Twin Frozr heatsink, this is a smart affair as it doesn’t rely on massive fans or heatsinks to do its job, a job it does well. |
REVIEW: Plantronics Gamecom 780 by David |
Date: 4 May 2012 |
|
Reviewers thoughts
Overall, I think the Plantronics Gamecom 780 headset represents really good value for money considering it also features 7.1 virtual surround sound. The packaging was sufficiently well designed with its black and orange look and the ability to see the headset from the outset via its clear window was nice. The headset was easy to install and there were no issues with the required software… |
REVIEW: Corsair H100 by James |
Date: 1 May 2012 |
|
Reviewers thoughts
The Corsair H100 has performed flawlessly throughout testing and I have witnessed the lowest temp recorded in the 4.8GHz test! Just take a look at those temperatures and let them speak for themselves. It would appear that Corsair has a real winner on their hands here; we have a well designed and constructed closed loop liquid cooler, that’s… |
REVIEW: Corsair Carbide 400R by Mark |
Date: 25 April 2012 |
|
Reviewers thoughts
The Corsair Carbide 400R Mid Tower Case is a solid well made case with good overall cooling and expansion capacity. The position of the front fan light switch, above the cases reset switch; and the flimsy separator bar between the motherboards backing plate aperture and its top expansion slot are the only minor flaws I could find in the cases construction. |
REVIEW: Thermaltake Level 10 GT by James |
Date: 19 April 2012 |
|
Reviewers thoughts
Impressed, very impressed I am (hold on I sound like Yoda!); the Thermaltake Level 10 GT impresses on all fronts, of course the styling may not be to everyone’s taste, but there is real function behind its bold design and I for one really like it. I like it as it’s not afraid of being different it’s not like all of the other cases out there, it’s something, well, special. |
REVIEW: Logitech Wireless Gaming Headset G930 by Mark |
Date: 5 April 2012 |
|
Reviewers thoughts
This headset is extremely comfortable to wear and for long gaming sessions that is a big plus. The 10+ hour battery life means that you can have a seriously long wireless gaming session without the worry of the battery failing. The Logitech Gaming Software can be configured to ensure you get the best out of the headset for the game / music that you are currently listening to; unfortunately the lack of profiles on the sound adjustment page to me is one of the headset / software’s faults. |
REVIEW: Asus Maximus IV Extreme-Z by James |
Date: 23 March 2012 |
|
Reviewers thoughts
There’s no doubt that the Asus Maximus IV Extreme-Z is one serious motherboard, maybe too serious for even the extreme gamer! I only say this as this board offers so much that most Gamers may not get to appreciate all of its rich feature set. Of course we can’t blame Asus for offering us so much! This board is the most focused overclocking motherboard I have ever seen and, unsurprisingly, overclocking with the Maximus IV Extreme-Z was a very easy and rewarding experience… |
REVIEW: SteelSeries Sensei by James |
Date: 12 March 2012 |
|
Reviewers thoughts
I feel that I have written rather a lot about the software and not so much about the mouse, this is down to the fact that the SteelSeries MOUSE is so close to perfection, and with a few more tweaks to the software/firmware then that could be close too. This really is a great mouse and… |
REVIEW: Noctua NF-F12 PWM by Mark |
Date: 5 March 2012 |
|
Reviewers thoughts
I must admit to being slightly disappointed by the Noctua NF-F12 PWM Fan. From opening the box and reading about the fan, the engineering that had gone into its production; it promised so much. It then went on to prove how quiet you can make a fan run… |
REVIEW: Cyborg R.A.T. 9 by James |

|
Reviewers thoughts
If I had to use one word to the describe the Cyborg R.A.T 9 |
mouse it wouldn’t be awesome, excellent or amazing; it would be Special. It’s a little like owning a supercar, you know it’s expensive, drinks fuel and capable of far more than you, but it’s all about the experience that it offers, and what an experience the R.A.T. 9 offers.

REVIEW: Asus Vulcan ANC by James |
Date: 03 February 2012 |
|
Reviewers thoughts
I must admit to being a little disappointed with the Asus Vulcan ANC headset. From the outset the packaging, the quality of the materials, the ROG brand, and even the price, promised so much! But in the end it didn’t deliver on what I think it promised or on what I expected, and that’s a shame. That’s no to say that it’s a bad headset (far from it), but… |
