A new day is here loaded with items for you to check over, so let's get right to it. We have a look at the Gigabyte X99-UD4P motherboard, which offers plenty of features for the Intel Haswell-E processors without breaking the bank for one of those builds. A couple different G.SKILL Ripjaws 4 DDR4 kits get tested, with one being a 16GB 2666MHz kit and the other a 16GB 3000MHz kit. For cooling needs, we certainly have you covered today, as air coolers from CRYORIG get put to the test, as does a liquid cooler from Fractal Design. There are also some storage options, too, with the Silicon Power S80 480GB SSD and the Silicon Power Armor A60 portable hard drive up for review. The Sentey Lumenata Pro SP gaming mouse is reviewed to see what all it offers. We also have a look at AMD's HBM plans for its next generation of GPUs, plus a PC buying guide to help you put together a new rig.
