Cooler Master has announced the release of its dual-sided RGB gaming mousepad making it the first piece from Cooler Master’s M800 series to launch, followed by MK850 keyboard and MM830 mouse later this year.

Good times for AMD. Intel is under a lot of scrutinies lately, scandals with their top-tier staff, issues with 14nm production, delays at 10nm and vulnerabilities are only a few of them. Meanwhile, AMD has picked up the pace and simply put very competitive and affordable processors on the market with Ryzen. 

Interesting, remember the guy from Silicon Lottery, that binned Core i7 4790K Processor binned for 5.0 GHz operation that we reviewed. Well, he has posted prices for the 8-core Core i9-9900K and i7-9700K

Two GeForce RTX cards have been released, yet three where announced. The cheaper RTX, or less expensive model 2070 still is awaiting an actual launch. Some expected later this month, but NVIDIA finally shared the word about it.

So if you read our Gigabyte RTX 2080 article, one of the comments I made was that I liked the previous Aorus models quite a bit better. The RTX 2080 GAMING OC 8G seems a little bit too normal for a product in that price range? Well, Gigabyte is now announcing an AORUS GeForce RTX 2080 (Ti) Xtreme version, which looks quite a lot better.

A topic of discussion for a while now already is that AMD would be refreshing Polaris, again. Currently, there is chatter on the web that AMD would soon release Polaris 30, that 3 being the 3rd iteration of Polaris.

So many Intel slides leak in Asia, and a new one has surfaced indicating that Ice Lake for mainstream processors has been delayed towards 2020. That by itself isn't news as everybody expected that, but the fact it is now listed on a roadmap, kind of solidifies that thesis.

Activision has released a brand new gameplay trailer for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 alongside the game’s launch in a few weeks on consoles and PC, with the trailer giving an overall look at the three main components of the game between its Multiplayer offerings, the Zombies mode, and the highly-anticipated Blackout mode. Blackout especially seems like it will be one of the most enticing parts of Black Ops 4‘s package heading into the holiday season, especially as it will bring the series up against some of the titans of the genre at the moment, namely Fortnite and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 will release for PS4, Xbox One, and PC on October 12th, 2018. 
 

A handful of new AMD chipset names surfaced in USB-IF registrations. AMD denies that the entries are legitimate, but well the names are in there alright. You will notice a Z490 and X499, which have been rumored about a couple of months ago as well. A420 is also listed, the successor of A320.

We review that other ROG STRIX. Yes, it is time to have a peek at the ASUS GeForce RTX 2080 STRIX model. We test the 8GB OC SKU  that comes with mild factory tweak, guys, that dual-BIOS controlled cooler though, good stuff.

We review the much-discussed Crucial BX500 480 GB SSD, discussed as people think this is a QLC based SSD. But is it really? The BX series is all about offering a value proposition, ergo some compromises have been made. It's still a kick-ass value product for the SATA3 range of SSDs though.
