Indian Startup brand ‘Astra’ launched the KD350X Series M.2 NVMe SSDs. These are NVMe 1.3 based PCIe 3.0 M.2 SSDs between 256 GB to 2 TB storage capacities. Based on the provided photos on its Facebook page, it uses a Phison PS5012-E12S-32 controller that is capable of running eight NAND channels.
As time changes, so do companies merge or split. Sennheiser Communications splits its Gaming division and forms a new brand name ‘EPOS’, viz. owned by Demant. For now, it will manufacture and sell currently available models but under a co-brand name ‘EPOS | SENNHEISER’. Reminds you of ‘Sony Ericsson’, doesn’t;t it? The same applies to its enterprise solutions.
Intel revealed its next-generation cable connective solution Thunderbolt 4. As you’d expect, there will new devices and docks which will comply with Thunderbolt 4 standards in the future. What’s interesting is that Intel named its upcoming ‘Tiger Lake’ processor for its notebooks. It didn’t name any desktop CPUs but Rocket Lake-S and LGA-1700 based Alder Lake is something that’s been talked about. Its also not known if Tiger Lake-U based NUCs would support Thunderbolt 4.
Corsair’s streaming peripherals division Elgato has released two USB microphones- Wave:1 and Wave:3, its first and therefore providing all streaming components, peripherals and accessories (except webcam for now). Both microphones are cardioid condenser based USB mics with a 24-bit converter.
NZXT released a limited edition and sixth variation of the H510 variation- the CRFT 06 H510 Siege. The case maker collaborated with Rainbow 6 Siege for its special edition. NZXT has been collaborating with respective game studios for having special limited edition for AAA titles. I did test the Fallout 4 Limited Edition H500 a long time ago. It did add an illumination ‘6’ logo on the front panel. It also has special Rainbow 6 Siege ‘Puck’ viz. a magnet-based holder for headphones. NZXT does its pucks but it sells this variation exclusively with this case.
The Cooler Master MasterBox MB311L ARGB is a Micro-ATX PC case came bundled with two 120mm ARGB fans. The front panel has mesh between two honeycomb vents. If you’re following Cooler Master case designs for a while, this looks pretty much in the same wavelength. The MasterBox MB311L has 2x USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A ports with audio ports. The notable feature is the ARGB controller and a 2-to-3 ARGB splitter.
