Phanteks Enthoo Pro Computer Case

My review of the Phanteks Enthoo Pro computer case is here. Phanteks is still relatively new to the case manufacturing scene, but the Enthoo Pro shows how far their understanding of the market has come in a very short time.

792p Next-Gen Consoles vs. PC – WTF?

How much more raw power would an XBox One or a PS4 need to output 60fps? What about 1080p? See how well “next-gen” console gaming performance stacks up against a beastly PC graphics card, the… the GTX 480?…

Fractal Design Core 3500 Computer Case

My review of the Fractal Design Core 3500 is here. We love all of the Fractal people, and we all know that they have created a variety of fantastic cases — some of which have become industry standards. But does the Core 3500 meet the high standards we now expect all Fractal cases to achieve?
