  1. Could you Cover/Unbox the new Milwaukee Earbuds? It's a nice crossover of hardware tool company with tech that you guys already review! REDLITHIUM™ USB Bluetooth® Jobsite Ear Buds | Milwaukee Tool
  2. Can we get a teaser video on current LABS testing for HDMI/Displayport cables? I've moved and want to purchase all new cables but want to make an informed decision before spending a few hundred dollars.
  3. I'm considering replacing the thermal pads on my Asus Strix 3080 and have been trying to find a guide or at least a second source other than some guy on reddit that winged it. Anyone know what size thermal pads to buy for the 3080 Strix? Reddit threads: REDDIT 1 This guy bought 2 of basically every size but the photo only shows 3.5mm (3+0.5mm?? Not supposed to sandwich pads I thought), and adding 1mm on top of unknown existing on the rest. REDDIT 2 2mm on VRAM, 3mm on backplate REDDIT 3 (Most Helpful) 2mm everywhere except 1mm strip on tiny VRM's Follow-up question, Gelid seems to have the best reviews for thermal pads but I also see a lot of mentions of thermal Grizzly and Thermalright. Any suggestions, and is the 15W Ultimate considerably more brittle than the 12W Extreme?
  4. I was looking at that one! I was trying to find something that also has a quick-release side panel like the ASUS Rog Strix Helios but that's an expensive monster of a case. I know I've seen smaller cases with quick release buttons in youtube videos but have no idea which ones they were. I might end up going with the Fractal Meshify C in the end anyways!
  5. Hey there, I am looking for a PC Case that I can use for a backup/spare/test rig PC. I have my main gaming rig complete but I want to have a case with a PSU, SSD, AiO Cooler that stay in it so I can "hot-swap" Motherboards/Ram/CPU to test builds and components with. I would like for the case to be as small as possible but I'd value ease of access over size if it came down to it, the case MUST support standard ATX motherboards. I will be switching from Intel to AMD motherboards OFTEN to test different CPU's so being able to get my hands in there without it being a time consuming PIA is a big deal. I was originally looking at open-air test bench "cases" but since this will be used in bursts and then sitting for a long time I want something that wont accumulate so much dust on the components, easier to dust off the top of a case than compressed air an open rig, plus I can't seem to find any decent ones in stock anywhere. This one looked cool. I have been quite pleased with the accessibility on my gaming rig: ASUS TUF Gaming GT501 Mid-Tower but that's a bit overkill and larger than what I'd like for this test rig. Any recommendations are welcome! Ease of access is my biggest concern.
  6. I found it! I hope this helps someone else in the future when this is no longer absolutely insane!

  7. I remember Linus showing us a PCIe adapter that can hold, I believe, four NVME M.2 SSD's in one of his videos. Can anyone link me to the video or provide more info on the device shown? I think the video was talking about RAIDs and other new tech coming out at CES or some other convention. Thank you for your help!
