The 63rd volume of the Sun Cycle updates welcome a whole lot of items from different brands so let’s see what you can get from the market.
First, we have the DRAM kit from XPG coming from the GAMMIX D35 and SPECTRIX D35G.
Both of them are DDR4 and look more or less the same with the SPECTRIX D35G having just an additional RGB diffuser on the top, and their prices are just like RM10 apart so why not go for extra lighting for a little touch-up of your rig?
Moving onto the PC cases, Phantek’s NV7 and EClipse G300A join the fray with the former aiming for the premium market with its seamless glass front panel that shows off your entire build while packing enough space to let you set up a bunch of fans and radiators to your liking.
The latter instead goes for a mid-tower form factor and is just your very standard PC chassis with easy to access front panel and an included rear fan. Looks classy and stealthily enough while affordable to get into most people’s houses.
The sub-brand MagniumGear follows up with the NEO Air PC casing as well and it comes with a rather unique mesh front panel for high airflow that is also dust-filtered while having enough verticality to host a decent amount of hardware inside it, including the ability to support vertical GPU mounting.
There are also new ways for you to jack up your RGB game through the Phanteks D30-120 fans with LEDs around the fans and sides while the Neon RGB LED strips just highlight whatever components you’re surrounding it with.
Remember the MonsGeek M1 launched back in February for its absolute value as a DIY aluminum keyboard kit? Well, it now comes in Silver!
Additionally, those who like a full-sized layout but not really full size (which is known as the 1800 layout by the way) can try out the MonsGeek M2 instead at just about 5% more expensive than the M1. Available colors are Silver, Purple, and Black.
Fellow custom keyboard enthusiasts may also enjoy these new AKKO keycaps on their own board or these fully-assembled boards for extra value (Those keycaps are expensive if purchased separately).
