ASRock Steel Legend SL-1200GW PSU Review

The ASRock SL-1200GW ships in a colour matched white box with a high resolution image of the unit on the front along with a list of key selling points, such as the 80 Plus Gold and Cybenetics Platinum certifications along with the ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 compatibility.

The rear of the box expands on details such as the cabling, the efficiency chart, and a list of features.

Inside the box are two sections. These contain the power supply and some supporting literature on the power supply, alongside a cable bag with the accessories.

Inside the box there are some mounting screws, ties, some literature on the product, PSU tester, and a lovely white power cable – we don't often see those!

ASRock supplies a wealth of cables with this unit, as shown in the images above. These are white to match the power supply itself. The ATX connector is 590mm long, the 4+4 Pin EPS 12V cable is 640mm long and the 8-pin EPS 12V is also 640mm long. The 6+2 pin PCIe connectors are 650mm long and the SATA cables all have +120mm spacing between them. The gauge is between 16-18AWG with the PCIe 5.0 600W cable between 16-24AWG. The quality of the cables is pretty good throughout and none of them have in-cable capacitors installed, which is always good to see.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
