Mike's unboxing, reviews and how to

Welcome to the channel, my name is Mike, and you are probably here to make a better buying decision, or maybe just learn some handy tricks.
We all go to KZread when we want to fix things, or we need more information on a product we are looking to purchase. So that is what we are hopefully going to do!
We are focused mainly on DIY and Computing products, but expect to find unboxings, reviews, and tutorials on lots of popular products and topics.

Feel free to comment or contact me if you have anything to say, or any recommendations or requests for future presentations.

    do i have to plug the usb drive in the bios flashback port if i update the bios from the bios using the mflash? and if i want to use the bios flashback button and i don't want to disassemble system before doing it, is there any risk? also where i am from there tends to be a lot of powercut. but i have a ups. which way is relatively safer for me to update the bios?

It says this cpu compatible and i was not able to find proper information about power stages of this board. I know it is not super strong about power side. To be honest i don't want to fry this board :D

Usually i use curve optimizer at minus 30 40 and only adding 200 mhz from pbo settings. Is this can cause a problem too? case is way too big for this mobo and i have 5 140mm fans 2 of them exhaust, 3 12 mm fans infront of the case, even graphic card temp drops down to 38 on idle .so i think i can keep it cool enough.

    Hi, Mike. Nice for an air-cooler. But I'll never buy another one. My current CPU cooler is an Alphacool 12947 Eisblock XPX Aurora. It's quite handsome, RGB, and good for up to 260Watts for less than $80. That reminds me, are you ever going to build an open loop during a live stream as we've talked about for the last few years? Or, is that just never going to happen... LOL

I just turned off the laptop and hope that the buyer has a Microsoft account. I would have liked to updated it all and ready to be sold, but Microsoft has made this impossible. They and Apple are trying to outdo each other in awfulness.

    To be fair, I have never heard about this brand. I know about Arctic, BQ, Noctua, Thermaltake, Deepcool and some others, but not this one. It seems pretty good though. ARGB, design and productivity are solid. But I don't think I would buy it because I like a quieter coolers and ready to overpay for a bigger radiator to make the fan's job easier. However, it's not a case right now because I use Ryzen 5 5600 and don't want to change it. Be Quiet Dark Rock 4 is already an overkill for this CPU, so I will not conduct any upgrades.
