About Me

Hi! I’m Ali Tauseef, and I have been writing for Tech4Gamers since 2022. I love all things computer hardware but am particularly fond of CPUs and motherboards, and I like to stay up-to-date about the latest advancements in these worlds, and when possible, write about it. When I’m not doing that, I like to get into a little FPS action in CS2 or get lost in the vast world of RDR2.

Position at Tech4Gamers

I intitally started by writing CPU comparisons and since then have written articles of all kinds, from Wikis and How-Tos to dedicated CPU reviews. Currently, I test and review CPUs, motherboards, and sometimes, RAM.

Tech Journey

My tech journey essentially began in my early childhood when I was introduced to my family computer on which I first played Need For Speed II SE. When I first saw what was inside that rusty old off-white PC case, it wasn’t pretty! But it intrigued me as to how all of it functions together to bring us what we see on our screens. Since then, learning about computer hardware has been something of a hobby, and here we are today!

Current PC setup

Here are the current specs of the system I am rocking:

  • OS: Windows 11
  • CPU: Intel Core i7-13700K
  • Motherboard: ASRock Z790 Steel Legend WiFi
  • GPU: MSI Gaming X RTX 3090
  • RAM: XPG Lancer RGB 32GB 7200MT/s DDR5
  • SSD: WD Black SN850X 2TB
  • CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Master Liquid 360 Atmos
  • PSU: Corsair RM850x

Uncharted 4's multiplayer contains many gameplay elements that are not found in the story mode, so it should not be overlooked.

With Reviews Finally Here, The RX 9070 XT Is Definitely AMD’s Most Impressive GPU Since The RX 580

AMD just launched the RX 9070 XT. With all the benchmarks out and about, here's why I think it's the best AMD GPU in recent times.

Zotac GeForce RTX 5080 AMP Extreme Infinity Review: Hard To Justify

The Zotac GeForce RTX 5080 AMP Extreme Infinity is a premium variant of the card, costing $250 more than the Founder's Edition. For that, it offers a flashy, premium design, better cooling, and marginally better performance than Nvidia's own model. However, the performance uplift isn't worth the $250 extra, and overall, the generational improvement over the previous generation isn't good enough.

Why I Always Keep My Game’s DLSS Updated With DLSS Swapper

The DLSS Swapper software allows you to update any DLSS-supporting game to the latest DLSS version; here's why I've been using it.

ASRock Z890 Pro-A Review: A Z890 For $190?

The ASRock Z890 Pro-A is an entry-level motherboard that comes in at a highly competitive price of $189.99 USD. At this price, the motherboard does drop the support for WiFi and Bluetooth, though the slot is available to separately install a module of your own. Other than this minor inconvenience, the board offers pretty much everything, from decent performance to a good selection of I/O with a budget-friendly price tag.

ASRock B850M Pro RS WiFi Review: Low Budget, High Value

The ASRock B850M Pro RS WiFi motherboard is a great small form-factor motherboard for budget gamers who want to utilize AMD's latest mid-range offerings. It provides decent value with 17x USB ports, 3x M.2 slots, and 4x HDD slots. It also has a beautiful black-and-white design and overall packs enough performance and features to offer a good gaming experience without breaking the bank.

ASRock B850 Steel Legend WiFi Review: Ticks All The Boxes

The ASRock B850 Steel Legend WiFi is a $209.99 motherboard that comes in an all-white color scheme that looks excellent. Moreover, the powerful VRMs with strong black capacitors give it enough juice to produce impressive performance on screen. The number of features is also quite impressive and makes it one of the best options in the sub-$250 motherboard category.

Arc B580 Vs RTX 2070 Super: Our Thoughts

In this ultimate Arc B580 vs RTX 2070 Super comparison, you'll see how one GPU outshines the other completely in almost every single aspect!

ASRock Phantom Gaming B850M Riptide WiFi Review

The ASRock Phantom Gaming B850M Riptide WiFi motherboard provides incredible value when paired with AMD's latest processors. With good 12+2+1 VRMs and Dr.MOS SPS, it's decent for overclocking, even with slightly higher VRM temperatures of up to 66°C in our stress tests.

Arc B580 Vs RTX 3070: Our Honest Opinion

In this Arc B580 vs RTX 3070 comparison, you'll see how the different these GPUs are in performance, pricing and efficiency.

ASRock Phantom Gaming B850i Lightning WiFi Review: Small But Powerful

The ASRock PG B850i Lightning WiFi is a mini-ITX motherboard that can cost you $209.99. The motherboard offers many features, and one of its highlights is its support for a thermistor. Which lets you monitor components’ temperatures from an external POV. Furthermore, the neat aesthetics, compact size, and high-speed memory support have impressed us equally.

ARC B580 Vs RX 7600: Our Recommendation

In the ARC B580 vs RX 7600 comparison, we will see how the performance, power consumption, and price of these cards compare between them.

MSI MAG X870E Tomahawk WiFi Review: A Great Daily Driver

The MSI MAG X870E Tomahawk WiFi is an impressive addition to MSI’s X870E arsenal. It prioritizes performance over looks, with a minimalistic design but solid numbers across all our tests. Its VRM setup (14+2+1 DRPS with 80A SPS for VCore) should handle any AM5 CPU (but don’t expect serious overclocking). Additionally, the I/O (5G LAN, WiFi 7, dual Gen 5 M.2, and more) and EZ-DIY features make this an overall solid option for $299.

MSI MAG B850 Tomahawk Max WiFi Review: Performance On A Budget

The MSI MAG B850 Tomahawk Max WiFi is an excellent mid-ranger and a great option for stepping onto the latest platform with your Ryzen 9000 CPU. It has a decent 14+2+1 DRPS design with 14x 80A SPS for the CPU, enough for even the AM5 big dogs. 5G LAN, WiFi 7, dual Gen 5 M.2 slots, PCIe 5.0 x16, and EZ-DIY are the highlights on the board. The lack of dual-sided thermal pads for the Gen 5 M.2 slot is a disappointment.

G.Skill Trident Z5 Royal Neo DDR5-8000 CL38 EXPO Kit Review

The Trident Z5 Royal Neo DDR5-8000 CL38 is G.Skill's latest addition to their EXPO DDR5 lineup. It follows the same design as previous kits from this lineup, with a mirrored silver/gold finish and a crystalline light bar. It's capable of running at DDR5-6400 CL28 with a latency of just 8.75ns, a configuration at which it can beat any kit in the market with speeds ranging from 6000-6400 MT/s. All this comes at a towering price tag of $179, though.
