Awesome Pc

On its own, Silverstone’s IceMyst series looks just like most premium CPU coolers. But it has a neat trick up its sleeve, er, block. You can mount up to five ARGB fan modules directly onto the pump block. This adds cooling for your RAM, VRAM, and SSD. Okay, it’s mostly more lighting, but it does look crazy. Hardware Canucks has a hands-on review of the cooler.

In 2021, PC and accessory maker Corsair announced they were making an enormous 20″ square version of one of their PC cooling fans. It turned out to be a joke, but lots of people wanted one anyhow.

Synthesizer maker Teenage Engineering applies their stripped-down aesthetic to a small form factor PC case. The orange sheet metal kit comes flat-packed for easy assembly and has room for a mini-ITX motherboard, an SFX power supply, and a dual-slot GPU up to 180 mm. Computer components not included.

To celebrate his love for Star Wars and The Mandalorian (and his need to edit lots of video), builder WorksByaHurst decided to make himself an awesome gaming PC that looks like the Jawas’ sandcrawler.

It’s a key sequence PC users dread having to use, but the old “Ctrl-Alt-Delete” is still in use today. Nostalgia Nerd looks back at the origin of this key combo which dates back to the 1980s. We’re sure that Apple will profess that their “Command-Option-Esc” key combo is far superior.

If you can believe it, the footage you see here is taken directly from the game engine of EA’s epic relaunch of Star Wars Battlefront. Coming this November to PS4, PC and Xbox One. We can’t wait to fly around with Boba Fett’s jet pack.
