The 64GB DDR5-4800 memory kit from Crucial does offer good performance and compatibility, while having a bit of headroom in terms of overclocking. High-capacity sticks are often a bit more difficult to overclock, but with this one we were able to do 5200MHz at stock timings, by just raising the operating voltage at 1.25. read more

Even if the Elite is declared as being UHS-I card with at least a 10MB/s write rate, it can go considerably faster than that as noted from our tests. Thanks to the format and adapter, it is compatible throughout a large range of devices, while the 256GB will be able to fit quite a bit of data! read more

After connecting the soundbar to our test laptop, we listened to multiple YouTube clips such as movie trailers, music or video blogs and noted that it is a huge step-up versus the integrated speakers of most portable computers. The bass is quite rich, the voices are rendered clearly and can be easily used instead of a set of dedicated speakers for your computer. In case of desktops, the supplied cable could be a bit short, so you’ll need to source your own connectivity cables. Due to the limited soundstage, it is recommended to keep the product close to us to get the best experience. read more

The Shuttle DH32U5 barebone had absolutely no issues operating with 64GB of RAM at 3200MHz thanks to the Neo Forza PnP kit. There was no extra configuration necessary, the correct speed being detected right away and there were no stability problems either. The C22 kit is operating at a low voltage of 1.2V so it won’t need heatsinks even when installed in a passive enclosure.     read more

While the Z790 VALKYRIE motherboard from BIOSTAR gets sometimes lower scores in benchmarks versus the EVGA Z690 CLASSIFIED which has a more mature UEFI, it compensates by having better expansion options (3 full-sized PCIe slots, no less than five M.2 for storage, individually detachable heatsinks, but also quite a bit of headers). It incorporates a 20-phase design, shielded slots, a lot of headers for fans and USB ports but also a debug LED display for signaling errors. read more
