2020 was actually a first-class year for technological innovation, but it will probably also go down in history as the year of the ultimate frustration of discouraged consumers, when the target group will end up not being able to buy what has been on their wish list for a long time: graphics cards and processors, power supplies and last but not [...]
PSUs, PC Cases and Modding
I am continuing my little retrospective today and we see once again that everything can still be increased!
