Logitech G Pro Headset – Review
I have been using the Logitech’s latest G Pro Headset for almost two weeks now, and I have to say – they are pretty damn good. They sit nicely around the head, and sound pretty good. The dark plain design actually gives it a premium look, and the logo on the sides has a very good finish to it. Most importantly though, they are very comfortable. The leatherette cushioning is great, and really soft. Since the weather has been cold lately, I do not know if they can tend to get sweaty during summers. My only complain with the headsets are that they do not have a swivel, so for some folks the headset might poke a bit in front of the ears. The audio quality is also great, with excellent surround sound – had me a good time in games like Tarkov, Call of Duty and Battlefield. The ...

NVIDIA has put out a new GPU for the mid range user – the GTX 1660 Super. Today we are reviewing the GALAX GTX 1660 Super EX White – a slick white version of the card.

Top Five Reasons To Get The Zotac ZBOX MAGNUS EK51070 (Review)
