ID-Cooling FROST X45 Review: One of The Best Thermal Pastes We’ve Tested

ID-Cooling’s new X45 thermal paste is an upgrade over their previous versions, offering better thermal performance with easier application thanks to its lower thickness. It’s ideal for overclockers or anyone wanting top cooling without spending much—priced at $6.99 for 2g. It performs slightly better than the older X25 and beats top brands in temperature tests.

Colorful iGame GeForce RTX 5070 Ultra W OC Review

The RTX 5070 brings little improvement over the RTX 4070 Super, making the generational upgrade hardly noticeable. It performs well at 1440p, but with only 12GB of VRAM, 4K ray-traced gaming isn't really an option. On the bright side, it has solid overclocking potential, offering a 10% performance boost just by adjusting a few settings. Overall, the card even struggles to justify its $550 price tag when AMD’s RX 9070 offers more raw power and memory.

ASRock Radeon RX 9070 Steel Legend Review: AMD’s Best Mid-Range Card Yet?

The ASRock Steel Legend RX 9070 is a solid mid-range GPU that outperforms Nvidia’s RTX 5070 in raster performance across all resolutions. AMD has also made big strides in ray tracing, an area where they’ve lagged behind in the past. With 16GB of video memory, smooth gameplay, and strong overclocking potential, it’s a great option for gamers who want high performance without breaking the bank. The only downside is the price—since the XT variant is just $50 more, it’s worth considering if you’re looking for even better performance.
