Getting ahead of the competition can be difficult with those flimsy stock controllers.

Video games get chunkier and chunkier every year. Trying to keep up with the demand can be taxing, both for your PC and your wallet. I’ve held off for the last few years, mainly because I don’t play many games on PC, but the time has come to take the next step in graphics processing for my rig.

Razer BlackWidow V4 Mini HyperSpeed review - Unlocking more potential

Feb 18, 2025 | gamingtrend.com | Cassie Peterson

I never fully understood the reason to have a tenkeyless (TKL) keyboard in any setting until it was explained to me in gaming terms. Not everyone has a whole lot of desk space. Some people like to have their keyboards oriented differently for advanced keybind layouts. Still, I resisted and stuck with my full-sized keyboards, like the Corsair K70 and the Logitech G915 X. I never realized what I was missing out on until I was finally able to check out a TKL keyboard myself.

Jan 18, 2025 | gamingtrend.com | Cassie Peterson

I have a new thing for you to add to your list of “things I didn’t know I needed” that I’m sure you’re keeping tabs on. Puffin Drinkwear takes drink thermal wear to a whole other level, with cool drinkwear that puts those boring can koozies to shame. They were kind enough to send a couple examples over for me to check out, The Hoodie and The Resort, and it’s safe to say I might have a new addiction.
