Roccat announces the Final piece of the Future ready puzzle

An InWin Chopin by proxy – The GameMax Mini Healer ITX case review

We really love the m-ITX form-factor. Its small components allow for some really interesting orientation combinations. We travel from the cylindrical tower of the White Knight to the minuscule comfort of the Gamemax Mini Healer. This case is tiny as it has a volumetric capacity of only four liters. That’s about eight cans of soda.

With even less space for components, how would the Mini Healer hold up on our test bench? Would it even be worth the time and effort to build one?  And what’s up with that PSU? Find out the answers to all of those questions in the video below.

We had all but forgotten about the nition of owning a case that didn’t come in the shape of a shipping container. That is, until we stumbled across the White Knight Pi.

Roccat is trying to claim your couch

With each day that passes, the PC steroids closer and closer to ruling the living room. A single computer  can easily replace many set top boxes and game consoles. Not that there’s anything wrong with having having boxes on top of boxes, but a single solution is really the best way to go. The real problem is how does one control a PC from the comfort of a couch. wireless controllers are nice, but not applicable in every situation. Wireless keyboards are a great choice, but generally have no where to use a mouse.  Well, Roccat has finally released the last part of their future-ready products that were announced a few years back in the form of the SOVA keyboard.
