Thermalright A70 ARGB Case Review | Thermals, Acoustics, & Build Quality
Gamers Nexus
Jul 19, 2026
Thermalright’s entry into the PC case market fails to compete with established rivals like Lian Li. Despite its premium pricing, the A70 suffers from manufacturing defects, poor space utilization, and a lack of included fans. The case market is currently saturated with superior, lower-priced options, making the A70 difficult to recommend at its current price point.
Key insight: The case features a 'pyramid' corner support design that actually magnifies factory-level adhesive bubbles and fingerprints, making the unrefined build quality highly visible to the user.
The 1000 FPS Gaming PC
Linus Tech Tips
Jul 4, 2026
Achieving 1,000 FPS requires extreme measures, including sub-zero cooling and aggressive CPU overclocking. While the hardware can reach these frame rates in esports titles, the experience reveals that ultra-high refresh rates like 1,000Hz provide significant perceived smoothness, though they remain impractical for the average user without extreme specialized cooling and high-end hardware.
Key insight: Even with an RTX 5090 and a CPU running at 6.2 GHz under -100°C liquid chiller cooling, hitting 1,000 FPS consistently requires disabling half the processor cores and pushing components to the absolute edge of stability.
Vi sammanfattar Computex 2026
SweClockers
Jun 9, 2026
Computex 2026 confirms that AI remains the industry's primary focus, leaving traditional gaming hardware updates largely absent. While major manufacturers prioritize AI integration, innovation is currently driven by niche cooling solutions like Noctua’s pump-less thermal prototypes and Phanteks’ aggressively priced, high-airflow chassis designs.
Key insight: Noctua’s pump-less liquid cooling prototype performs within the margin of error of traditional pump-based systems, potentially revolutionizing silent PC builds by eliminating mechanical noise and vibration.
