    Logitech G Pro Gaming Mouse Review — Pro-ficient

    Honestly, someone who suggests that you stay away from a mouse and look for one with a "sniper button" if you play a sniping role in competitive esports does not have a place in reviewing mice. That single line invalidates everything else said in the review because I simply cannot trust that...

    Sony Vaio Pro 13 vs Dell XPS 13

    Yes, it will perform better. I wouldn't exactly say you're due for an update though. If you manage to get a decent bid on your Vaio, by all means, upgrade (:

    Playing Spotify on my home theatre system

    You could buy a 3.5mm to RCA L/R cable. Plug the RCA L/R into your receiver and the 3.5mm into your phone :) If you have a laptop then you can plug the 3.5mm into the analog audio out and just place your laptop on or near your receiver. Analog only carries a stereo signal (aka no 5.1 or 7.1...

    Problem: Toslink out of HDMI to receiver

    Greetings, I am trying to get digital audio out of my computer and into an old receiver that does not support HDMI. My motherboard does not have any optical out, so I decided to pick up a little device that takes HDMI in and then spits it back out along with an optical out and RCA L/R out...
