Hi! I’m Usman Saleem, with 8+ years of PC hardware expertise and a Google IT Support Specialization certificate, specializing in in-depth tech analysis and reviews. With a stethoscope in one hand and a gadget in the other, I’m both a doctor and a PC tech expert, dedicated to pursuing both my passions at the same time.
Position at Tech4Gamers
At Tech4Gamers, I’m the PC Hardware Specialist, primarily contributing to the “Best-Ofs” section. I provide thoughtful buying advice based on thorough testing and personal expertise. I also review hardware products and games to keep things fresh.
Tech Journey
From childhood, I’ve been immersed in gaming and PC hardware. Starting with a Pentium 2 PC, each named PC, from ZEUS to APOLLO, symbolizes a chapter in my journey. My true passion lies in the beating heart of the gaming industry – PC hardware.
I tested both the AMD Ryzen 9600X and the 9700X, and AMD has gone too far with the power limits - the CPUs barely outperform their own predecessors, which is very dissappointing.
The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is the best gaming processor of this generation, which not only delivers top-notch gaming performance but performs decently in rendering and productive workloads as well. Meanwhile, it's also one of the most efficient processors out there with a TDP of less than 150W in boost mode.
The MSI Z790 PZ is an ATX motherboard with backplug connectivity, supporting Intel 12th to 14th Gen processors and up to 7200+ MHz DDR5 memory. It features a 14+1+1 power delivery system, multiple PCIe and M.2 slots, and robust thermal solutions.
The ASRock B650E Steel Legend WiFi motherboard stands out with its Gen5 PCIe connectivity, robust 16+2+1 power phase design, and an appealing blend of black, white, and silver aesthetics with A-RGB lighting.
