Cooler Master X Silent review




"A fully passive 850 W power supply is a notable achievement and a highly desirable product for all lovers of low-noise computer setups. The Cooler Master X Silent Edge Platinum does very well in terms of performance, too. The sole fact that it can steadily pass all tests in high ambient temperatures and deliver more than its rated power if needed, is impressive. Once we go into details, we see a very solid yet not great performance in terms of efficiency and voltage regulation. Don't get me wrong though, the results are not bad at all, you just typically build up your expectations when you're looking at a unit of this price range."

UP Squared 7100 fanless SBC review




"I added a 256GB NVMe SSD to the M.2 Key M socket and left the M.2 Key E socket empty. I also removed the three screws securing the large heatsink and replaced them with three of the four standoffs provided in the kit. The idle CPU temperature is reported to be 59°C, a little higher than I had expected since the smaller UP 7000 idled at 54°C."
