This week's five reviews cover iFi's redesigned NEO iDSD 3 DAC, Thrustmaster's Airbus flight-stick grip, the EPOMAKER TH65 keyboard, the Kioxia Exceria Pro G2 SSD, and Dell's Pro 5 webcam. The standout value pick is the EPOMAKER TH65 at $59.99, scoring 8.6 out of 10 for its gasket-mounted thocky feel. Not everything earns a buy recommendation: the Kioxia SSD's import pricing swings to $750 versus its expected $340, and the Dell Pro 5 webcam's $119.99 price tag asks too much for solid-but-unremarkable quality. Meanwhile, the Thrustmaster Airbus grip wobbles out of the box, making it hard to justify for everyone.

Cooler Master's MasterFan A140 FC secured a Cybenetics Platinum rating for 164.4 CFM airflow, though reviewers flagged a confusing discrepancy between the spec sheet and the fan's printed amperage label. Razer debuted the Reclusa X Mini 65% at $49.99, delivering hot-swap support and Gen-3 Orange switches in a budget-friendly board that Windows Central praised as the start of a new enthusiast family. Thermalright's $91 TR-KG750 power supply undercuts nearly every name-brand 750 W Gold unit, but Tom's Hardware warns that "acceptable rather than good" regulation makes it a gamble for builders who prioritize silence or verified efficiency. Finally, AVerMedia's DUALCAM PW313D earned 95% for its unique dual-camera design at $149.99, filling a niche for streamers needing two angles without the cost of a full multi-camera rig.

ASUS has announced the ROG Swift OLED PG27UCWM, a 26.5-inch 4K Tandem RGB OLED display capable of reaching 480Hz in Dual Mode, priced at €1,249.90. The company also revealed the ROG Azoth Extreme Edition 20, a collector's keyboard with a 24-karat gold nameplate and 8,000Hz wireless polling that costs upwards of €629. On the value front, the MSI Maestro 500 Wireless offers tri-mode connectivity and ANC for $69.99, while Endorfy's Viro Wireless delivers 130-hour battery life and premium build materials for €86.90. The roundup also covers Pulsar's new X2N Crazylight sub-50g mouse and the Libernovo Omni Pro chair, which addresses comfort with an integrated seat ventilation fan.

Today's reviews roundup proves that compact builds are more affordable and capable than ever, led by a $45 Cooler Master mATX case and a $2,999 BOSGAME mini PC packing 128GB of shared LPDDR5X for local AI workloads. Thermal and input peripherals are racing toward customization, with be quiet!’s new 360mm AIO showcasing a sharp IPS pump display while budget Hall Effect keyboards like the Epomaker HE75 V2 deliver elite latency despite frustrating firmware oversights. Storage and power choices lean heavily into efficiency, as Goodram’s cool-running PX700 NVMe and Phanteks’ $80-to-$90 750W PSU prove you do not need to spend premium prices to get flagship regulation and power draw. If you are building or upgrading on a tight budget, keep an eye on NAND pricing and dual-check PCIe Gen5.1 connector limits before checkout.

Visual Studio Code 1.137 launched today, introducing the Agent Host architecture and an open protocol to decouple AI sessions from workspaces so they can survive folder closures and run remotely over SSH. The update rolls out scheduled Automations for recurring tasks, an experimental Voice Mode for hands-free agent interaction, and tighter GitHub Issues and Pull Request integration directly inside the Agents window. While the heavy agent features target power users already running AI workflows daily, the new architecture provides the portable, protocol-defined lifecycle necessary to make autonomous coding agents practical.

Today's hardware roundup delivers flagship-tier components at aggressively lower price points, led by PowerColor's ALPHYN AM10 wireless mouse dropping to $49.99 and GEEKOM's IT13 MAX mini PC launching at $669 with Wi-Fi 7 and dual 2.5G LAN. Builders dealing with the persistent 16-pin connector melting issue finally have a practical shield in EZDIY-FAB's $60 Alpha TS13 adapter, which features real-time thermal monitoring and an audible alarm. On the audio and power front, SteelSeries keeps its dual-wireless Nova 7 Gen 2 headset running for 54 hours, while FSP's new $129 MEGA PM 850W PSU delivers near-silent Platinum efficiency with native ATX 3.1 compliance. Fractal Design's premium $640 Refine 2 chair rounds out the spread with Scandinavian-inspired ergonomics, though street availability on the FSP power supply will depend entirely on FSP's upcoming distributor rollout.
