The cable is a tangle-free which allow you to comfortably play during intense matches, it is made with a soft sturdy rubber. In the middle, you'll find the other mic and a volume controller. You can switch to detachable mic and the middle mic anytime.

The detachable mic is in a small form factor, the cable is flexible and adjustable to any form you want. Though the output of the mic is a little wonky, it sounds like an airplane pilot speaking to its radio. You can check our audio mic sample here.

When you see a regular headphone with mic, its usually big and bulky. But this gaming ear phone from Choetech are so compact and portable.

Wearing it will fit just right for most Asian young and adults. It is comfortable to ears, the rubber hook also helps the ear phones to stay in its place even for longer use.

It comes with an ear tips earbuds, so soft that when pull it out from your ear, it creates a plucks sound (may na na). When wearing it, you can barely hear the sound outside your environment, allowing you to focus in the game without distraction. The output of the sounds is decent with good high notes and very good bass effect, we have tried with Spotify premium, so far it delivers that extra high quality.

If you're using it to your Desktop computer, it comes with a FREE Audio/Mic splitter adapter where it splits the input audio of the mic and audio output into to 2 separate 3.5mm male for your motherboard audio ports.

For wear and tear, it comes with free extra ear tips earbuds. You can replace it anytime in case you damage or tear from prolong use.

This is the packaging, it looks generic, showing the PUBG cast and labeled it with "BATT ROUNDS".

Given the very affordable price, the sound quality of these ear phones are above average, its very good bass quality and good high/low frequency notes.

The one we get is the large variant, the dimension size of this mouse pad is at 11.81 x 30.7 inches.

At the back, it has natural foaming rubber that would not move any single inch while you're using your mouse, either you're playing an intense FPS games or an MOBA games. It is one of the important features for a mouse pad especially for those gamers whos table is in a glass surface.

You can actually install Crysis 3 directly on RTX 3090 VRAM as Storage

Someone just installed Crysis 3 directly on their NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 VRAM using a software card VRAMdrive (GPU RAM Drive). And the result is outstanding, at a 4K very high settings, good FPS and super fast load.

NVIDIA's RTX 3090 has a total of 24GB or a usable of 20,434MB according to GPU-Z reports, in a Linux system you can utilize these VRAM as general purpose RAM disk. In Windows, there is available utility that is called GpuRamDrive that has the same function as in linux, it is now available at Github (https://github.com/prsyahmi/GpuRamDrive).

A user named @Strife212, posted his adventure on Twitter on how he installs Crysis 3 in his Graphics Card. Basically, he partitioned the available 24GB VRAM on RTX 3090 into two separate variants. 10GB VRAM for the graphics card and the remaining 15GB for the storage (Drive R:). Despite utilizing all of the VRAM, the GPU load still remains at 40% without hiccup. "At 4K very high settings get good fps and the game loads very fast – GPU-Z reports total VRAM use 20434MB", he said.

Since RTX 3090 is utilizing the PCIe 4.0, the load times of the games will be similar to an NVME M.2 SSD drive which gives up to 5GB/s read speed. The same technology used in PS5 and XBOX Series that enable their games to render in-game assets at real-time.

What do you think of this experiment? Will you take risk and try it when you get an RTX 3090? Or you're going to use it as a storage for storing secret files? Let us know in the comment section.

"It's actually surprising because at some point in our relationship, we both realized that we're both into video games and that we've actually played these games even before we met each other," she says. "I remember when we first heard about Ragnarok coming to mobile, I was like 'I loved this game in high school!' and Mikael could not believe it because it was also a game he played back then."

Animal Crossing in Lockdown and FoodPanda

Since lockdown started, Megan also started spending time playing Animal Crossing on her Nintendo Switch. Since this game requires grinding and needs some refreshing foods, a recent favorite order of her from foodpanda is the steak burrito with cheese.
