From the first few key presses, Cherry’s £80/$90 KC 200 MX mechanical keyboard ably demonstrates the genius of the German firm’s new MX2A switches – while being a fascinating but not faultless keyboard for typing or gaming in its own right. These switches are undoubtedly the star of the show, and come with a genuine…

Another season has arrived, and with it a host of exciting new mechanical keyboards. Here are quick-fire reviews of four favourites that I’ve tested over the past month, from two extremely good value options with both niche and mass-market appeal (the trendy Nuphy Air75 v2 and odd Gamakay LK75) to two of the most customisable…

SteelSeries has been on something of a roll recently, with their redesigned Arctis Nova Pro headsets and new Arena speakers both attracting plaudits from press – including Eurogamer – and users alike for their design, audio quality and software. Now the Danish firm has turned its attention to the other side of audio: microphones.…

It’s a pretty good time to be an AMD fan. The Red Team’s desktop processors include the fastest gaming CPU we’ve ever tested, while its Radeon graphics card business is increasingly competitive with a forward-looking ‘chiplet’ design and two flavours of frame generation tech.

Intel’s “Raptor Lake Refresh” 14th-gen CPUs are here, reprising the designs and prices we saw on 13th-gen models, but bumping up clock speeds – up to 6GHz for the flagship 14900K. These minor changes come thanks to manufacturing improvements and more generous binning, but are they enough to break the deadlock and give Intel the…

What is new is a focus on higher-end sim racing gear, which this year includes a direct drive Pro Racing…

[ad_1] The one that we’ve been waiting for is here. The $449 Ryzen 7 7800X3D processor promises to deliver similar gaming performance to AMD’s flagship 7950X3D and Intel’s Core i9 13900K, while consuming less power and costing significantly less than its rivals. To find out which of these three options is the fastest gaming CPU…
