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 |

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 |

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.

Overall I have really enjoyed my time with the SteelSeries 7H (Fnatic Limited Edition) |

By now you may have realized that I really am rather impressed with the Corsair Vengeance K60 keyboard, in fact I’m sure that it’s the best keyboard that I have used to date… |
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… |
REVIEW: Crucial Ballistix Tactical Tracer 8GB by James |
Date: 27 January 2012 |

Reviewers thoughts
The Crucial Ballistix Tactical Tracer 8GB modules have performed well during the time I have had them in my rig. Running at 1600MHz with timings of 8-8-8-24 means they are never going to be the fastest modules around (they’re not the slowest either!), but as you can see they responded well to a small overclock and the modules ran perfectly stable at 1633MHz. |
REVIEW: ADATA S510 120GB by Mark |
Date: 23 January 2012 |
|
Reviewers thoughts
Initially at the start of the review I was having trouble in justifying the premium of an SSD over an HDD, especially when comparing the prices before the flood disaster in Thailand increased the prices of HDDs. But now having seen the increase in Games load speeds I suspect I an going to be leaving the ADATA S510 in my rig! |
REVIEW: MSI Z68A-GD80 G3 by James |

Reviewers thoughts
In summary we have a Z68 motherboard that looks cool, has good build quality, performs beautifully and comes with a great suite of software, and all of this comes at a reasonable price! Needless to say there is no way this motherboard is leaving my rig… |
