A microphone is one of the most important computer peripherals for someone that wants to make videos, host live streams, or record podcasts.
And it’s no surprise that people are creating and watching an exorbitant amount of online media recently! So, if you want to get yourself set up to create video content of some kind, or upgrade your existing audio arrangement, you’ve come to the right place. Let’s get into some recommendations!
Aw, micro-ATX PC… you never get the love you deserve! You’re always seen as the middle child between ATX and mini-ITX.
Well not today! Let’s get into some builds.
With the march for bigger and bolder cases ongoing, has the sun set on the Mini-ITX PC? Let’s take a look!
Put me in coach, I’m ready!
We recently did battle with Amazon, and it’s now time for Logical Increments vs. Newegg in the same arena of price-to-performance ratios. We’ll be comparing a custom PC to the top-selling pre-built machine on Newegg. Let’s get into it!
LET BATTLE COMMENCE!
In what might become the battle of the ages between Logical Increments and Amazon, I take a look at the top selling pre-built PC on Amazon and see if we can do better by building a PC ourselves!
In this review, I take a close look at one of the highest-rated 3rd-party controllers of this generation: the 8Bitdo SN30 Pro+.
AMD or Intel? It’s a question that comes up at every flagship launch… yet what if the flagship options are irrelevant to you, because you don’t want to spend a fortune on a CPU?
What if you just want to spend something more within a sensible budget, plug everything in, and get going? Well, the eternal debate can be invoked even at a lower price point! Let’s take a look at what both AMD and Intel have to offer around $200.
On paper, Google Stadia Base sounds great. After all, how can you beat free? Let’s have a look at building a PC and go from there!
Up until a few years ago, the value king for gaming was the Intel i5 processor. More recently, AMD’s Ryzen APUs have stolen the show at the low tiers, and we all know that no integrated graphics from Intel can currently compete with AMD’s Vega 8 and Vega 11 iGPUs. So it’s a no-brainer for gaming builders at very low budgets (who are entirely skipping graphics cards) to go with Ryzen APUs.
But outside of such head-to-head CPU comparisons, a broader value question remains for upper-low-tier (and lower-mid-tier) builders: how would a self-built system balanced around AMD’s newest R3 (including a discrete graphics card) compare to a highly discounted prebuilt system with a few key upgrades?
A single board computer (or SBC) is an entire PC in the form of a single (usually quite small) piece of hardware. Some prominent names in the SBC market may be familiar to you—such as Raspberry Pi, Odroid, and LattePanda. At the high end, there are other familiar names that you may not even associate with SBCs . . . like Nvidia and AMD!
Single board computers can be used for many purposes, such as: a tiny general-purpose desktop PC; a dedicated media PC for playing music, TV, and movies; an emulation machine; a server; a hobby electronics or programming project; and much, much more.
Even though many single board computers are similarly priced, there is a ton of competition in the single board market. Wonder why that is? Well wonder no more: it’s because different single board computers are often specialized for different groups and different purposes. Now, join us as we delve into the big wide world of single board computers!
