Over the last few months, we’ve had quite a few monitors come through the office, and I’ve been fortunate enough to trial most of them, but as of right now, the ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG27UCDM takes the cake. As a 27-inch 4K QD-OLED monitor, it blurs the line between
Oh, a family reunion is nice. After reviewing the ‘ROG Azoth Extreme’, Republic Of Gamers is back with a little sibling, the ‘ROG Azoth X Gaming Keyboard’. This keyboard is cheaper in price and interesting in style and appearance, having inherited some good family genes. When you buy a keyboard
I’ve played with a few gaming laptops since I started reviewing for MKAU Gaming, but nothing has excited me more than the ASUS ROG Strix SCAR 16 (2025) G635 Gaming Laptop. Rocking the signature ROG aesthetic, it looks and feels like a premium piece of gear from the moment you
Earlier this year, ASUS allowed me to check out the ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 5080 and 5070 OC Edition GPUs, so it was only a matter of time before I got my hands on the ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 5060 OC Edition graphics card. Although we’re working down
When it comes to legendary gaming mice, few names carry as much weight as the Razer DeathAdder. Since its debut in 2006, the DeathAdder line has established a loyal following due to its iconic ergonomic design and tournament-ready performance. Now, in 2025, Razer has returned with a vengeance: DeathAdder
Ever since the release of the Nintendo Switch 2 back in June, third-party companies have been designing peripherals and accessories to help improve or provide alternatives to the official Nintendo products. ANTANK has provided us with their own Dock design for the Switch 2, known as the ANTANK S3
It’s hard to believe that I’ve only reviewed a single AMD graphics card since ASUS helped us build our benchmarking PC. Currently built on the ASUS ROG Strix Z790-I Gaming WIFI Motherboard, power is delivered by the TUF Gaming 1000W Gold White Edition PSU, the ROG Strix LC III 360
It’s been a hot minute since I have had the pleasure of reviewing a headset. My current one, while it doesn’t have all the bells and whistles, has suited me just fine for all my Xbox gaming needs. Or so I thought. Introducing SteelSeries ‘Arctis Nova 3X Wireless Headset’, a
If you’re serious about gaming and demand the peak performance you deserve from your home network, the TUF Gaming BE3600 is a dual-band WiFi 7 Router from ASUS that delivers both power and style. It features a sleek, futuristic look with a hollow side design that enhances the cooling efficiency,
Alienware 16 Area 51 Review: A Heavyweight Champion or Just… Heavy? Let’s get one thing straight from the start. Calling this a ‘laptop’ is a marketing fantasy. This is not a thin-and-light skiff you can toss in a pack and forget about. Weighing in at a maximum of 3.40 kg
In May of last year, ASUS and Republic of Gamers provided me with an education on mobile gaming. I knew that mobile gaming was a thing, but as far as I was concerned, it couldn’t compare to a handheld, a console, or a PC. I was wrong, and just
As much as I enjoy tinkering around with computers, dealing with cables is one of the most time-consuming and frustrating aspects of the process. Before receiving the TUF Gaming 1000W Gold White Edition PSU as part of the benchmark PC ASUS generously helped us build, I had only ever dealt
While gaming laptops come with most of the bells and whistles, I’ve also noticed that they can be quite limited in their storage capacity, often only coming with 1 TB. It might sound like a lot, but once you account for space taken up by the operating system and the
If you’ve been keeping up with our hardware reviews, you’ll no doubt have rolled your eyes as I mention my affinity for all things RGB, but I recently wrote a review for the ASUS ProArt PA401 Wood Edition Case, and it started to change my mind. Now, just when
When I was slaving away in a retail environment, the best convertible device we carried was practically limited to browsing the web and performing mundane tasks like word processing and spreadsheets. Sure, they have their purpose, but I never thought that something like that could be used for gaming –
My regular nine-to-five has me sitting at a computer all day, sometimes scrolling through thousands of rows on spreadsheets, and other times, searching through lines of code to find the one section causing whatever problem users are experiencing. When I’m not working, I’m either playing something or I’m scrolling through
Back in April, Sammy checked out the Alienware 34” 240Hz QD-OLED (AW3425DW) Gaming monitor. He gave it top marks, so when the Alienware 32” Curved Gaming Monitor (AW3225DM) appeared in the office, I decided it was my turn to see what all the hype was about. Before I do that,

I had been using my previous headset for a few years, but early on, I noticed a few restrictions I hadn’t considered when I picked it up. It’s also starting to fail on me – the microphone isn’t registering my voice properly, the earcups pop occasionally, and the volume control

Ever since they released the groundbreaking Nintendo Game Boy in 1989, they have consistently pushed the boundaries of what is possible, even going so far as to allow integration with their home-based consoles with the release of the Nintendo
When I started tinkering around with computers, I considered the motherboard a means to an end. It was simply the board on which the puzzle pieces would fit. As long as the CPU socket was the right type for the processor I had, it didn’t matter what motherboard I used,
Built on the ASUS B860M Max Gaming AX motherboard and placed inside ROG’s first-ever gaming case with glass panels on both top and side panels, the ROG G700 (2025) Desktop Gaming PC is ready to handle anything. While several configurations are available, the one we received came with the Intel
Let’s face it: seeing the term ‘vertical’ alongside the word ‘mouse’ doesn’t immediately scream familiarity or “Finally, it’s released!”. Most likely it’ll be a mixed-bag reaction of “Woah, what even is this?!” or “How does that even work?”. Quite frankly, I agree with you. Sure, the traditional flat mouse has
Razer is one of the leading brands in PC gaming hardware, and we are fortunate to have our hands on their latest gaming keyboard, the Razer Joro Portable Wireless Gaming Keyboard, which is now available worldwide. The Razer Joro is a 65% small-form keyboard measuring 298mm x 112mm x 16.5mm.

I think I was in my mid-teen years when Beyblades made their way into stores, so I never really had the chance to experience the thrill of spinning tops designed to smash into each other. At the time, I considered myself too old for that kind of thing. I do
