I bought a new ARMAGEDDON 27-inch Gaming Monitor & Headphones #armageddon


(All links will open up in a new tab.)

Hey guys,

Check it out!

My new ARMAGEDDON (website) gaming monitor and headphones finally arrived. The first time I've bought gaming products from them, although I think I've bought their backpack before. They have been around for quite some time.

I bought a new gaming monitor because my old Asus or Acer (couldn't remember) had burn marks on the screen. My old monitor was 24 inches I upgraded to a 27-inch. I believe I've had the old monitor for over five years. It's a good monitor.

I was on a budget. I decided on the Armageddon monitor when I saw it was on offer for $100+. Others offered below the $200 mark but I decided on Armageddon brand. That's why I also got the Armageddon brand headphones. 

Once in a while, I like to try out other brands to see if they're any good compared to others. Prices, design, and specs matter to me too. I like the company's logo. Too bad they didn't include any stickers with their products like Razer


When I buy Razer products and get their stickers, I paste them everywhere. I think cool company stickers help create loyalty and also promote your company brands. So, Armageddon, you know what to do. Send me some stickers!

I love the Armageddon logo. It's a waste that they didn't include any stickers. I would also love it if they want to sponsor me (haha!). They have many latest products that you can check on their main website. I'm already thinking of maybe buying a new gaming PC from them.


My current gaming PC is from Aftershock (website). Check out my unboxing video here. Don't forget to like and share. I took a quick look at the video and realized, I've had this PC for seven years. And, it's still working fine. But, the hard disk died and I had to re-use the old laptop hard disk.

I'm upgrading to a bigger SSD for the main drive and adding more RAM or getting a new one. It's always good to update to the latest tech. Mine has been seven years. Even the Aftershock company has grown bigger. They have many new offerings and promo.


The tech has gotten bigger and better. You can get bigger SSD storage sizes. My PC had the GTX 1060 3GB back then. Now, it's the i9s and RTX 4090s. I still have my HP laptop with AMD Ryzen 7. Now, they already have Ryzen 9

HP has good laptops. I have people buying via my Amazon links. I also recommended my ex-colleague buy an upgraded version with more RAM and storage space. My recommended minimum is 16GB of RAM. I had a problem editing videos with just 8GB of RAM.

What do you guys think?

Unboxing Aftershock custom build gaming pc and Asus vs248 monitor


OMEN 30L Gaming Desktop PC, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Graphics Card, 10th Generation Intel Core i9-10850K Processor, 32 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD and 2 TB Hard Drive, Windows 10 Home (GT13-0092, 2020)

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Hey dude, if only I have the money. I bought my Aftershock (main website) custom build gaming pc with the Asus vs248 monitor for around $2K, way back in Feb 2017. That's over 3 years ago. The specs was intel i7, 16GB of ram, Gtx 1060 3GB, 109 SSD + 1TB HDD. My HDD died on me the other day. Now, I have to get a new one.

Try comparing that to the latest gaming pc on offer in 2021 at the same price. Just shows within years, the technology has pretty much tripled. One thing for sure, my 'old' gaming pc is still a no-slouch. For my personal use as a Youtuber and blogger, it still runs smoothly without any kind of hiccups. Especially, when editing my videos.

In the old days, when I only had a Pentium PC, it will always hang up whenever I want to make a video for my youtube channel. Sometimes, it will hang up when I opened the Microsoft Moviemaker. There'll be days when half-way through editing the videos and the screen just froze. I'll literally pray that it'll be back to normal or I'll have to re-do everything again.

Nowadays, with my high-end gaming pc, even though, it almost never freezes, I have cultivated the habit of saving my work every time I remembered to. Blogger or Google office actually now automatically saves my works every few secs. I think every software should do that. Well, you never know if suddenly something happens like a loss of power and at least your data was saved.

I'm thinking of upgrading my 109GB SSD though. It's too small for some of the basic software that I need to install. Also, because some of them need to be installed on your main drive. I'm thinking of either getting the 500GB or 1TB SSD. The size of this software and games are getting bigger and bigger. Why can't they get smaller and smaller like the tech advancement?

They also consume so much energy and needed a better cooling system. Especially, for gaming laptops. Even gaming device or phone gets pretty hot if you play high graphic-intensive games. My favorite portable gaming console, the Nintendo Switch lite, will get warm even though I'm just watching youtube videos. My Samsung Note 10+ even had to kill the game Grid Autosport because of heat.

Really, if I have the money, I'll want to get any of these new gaming PC with the latest high-end specs. I'll just sell my old pc and get the new one. I've thought of upgrading it but, the fact the tech has really become more advance and updated, and you really want to try out the new technology too. What with the new upcoming games.

Ahh, how I wish I was rich or sponsored by any of these companies. One thing though, I really wish they can minimize it all. Imagine, all that powerful tech inside my Nintendo Switch lite. I'll be able to play a super high-end graphic intensive game on the go. Hopefully, the battery will last you the whole day and not just 1 or two hours. 



Nintendo Switch Lite - Gray

Have you guys seen the latest Xbox Series X and the PS5? Especially, the PS5, it's so huge. Whatever happens to tech getting smaller and powerful? Look, the Nintendo Switch would probably soon reach 100 million sold, worldwide. It is small and portable does entice gamer like me who likes gaming on the go. In fact, I game on it more than on my Xbox or PC.

I found this interesting article about Nintendo Switch and Call of Duty in 2020. Read it here. But, the fcking Big Boss, I forget his name says that COD won't be available any time soon for the Nintendo Switch. What a prick. There I said it. I'm pretty angry because the way he says it sounds arrogant to me. Let's see how long can he ignored the call for COD to come to the Switch.

Anyway, don't forget to check out my Aftershock gaming pc unboxing video. Pls like, share, and subscribe. It will definitely help grow my blog and youtube channel. I still haven't reached the 1k minimum subscribers to earn any advertising money. Not that I can, even if I reach that minimum requirement. In the old days, I would but they changed the rules again.

By the way, come back a couple of years later, and let's see what new technology will be available for the gaming pc then!

ROG CES 2021 Launch Event For Those Who Dare


2021 ASUS ROG Zephyrus 14" VR Ready 120Hz FHD Gaming Laptop,8Core AMD Ryzen 9 4900HS(Beat i7-10750H), 24GB RAM, 1TB PCIe SSD, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q,Backlight,WiFi 6,Win10 +GM Gaming Mouse

Hey guys,

Check it out!

CES 2021 is already on the way and I've actually been sick these past few days. I feel better today and so I think, I can finish this post. I thought I could make it yesterday but decided to just lay down and watch youtube on my bed.

I did manage to finish watching the ROG Ces 2021 launch event and the only thing I"m interested in is the latest laptop. Although the new ROG Claymore II keyboard is kinda interesting with the detachable number pad and you can even switch to the left or right of the keyboard. Pretty nifty.



2021 ASUS ROG Zephyrus 14" VR Ready 120Hz FHD Gaming Laptop,8Core AMD Ryzen 9 4900HS(Beat i7-10750H), 24GB RAM, 1TB PCIe SSD, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q,Backlight,WiFi 6,Win10 +GM Gaming Mouse

Oh, they also have a new mouse, ROG Gladius III wireless, and cable version. I'm really lazy to talk about the detail specs but you can watch the video and let them explain. There's some cool etched design on the left side of the mouse and also the ability to change parts.

If you're looking for a new gaming monitor, you have the ROG Swift PG32UQ. I'm actually thinking of getting a new curve monitor. Not really for gaming, but as my main monitor. I have two portable monitors below my main 23inch Asus HDMI monitor.



Asus ROG Strix XG49VQ 49” Curved Gaming FreeSync Monitor 144Hz Dual Full HD HDR Eye Care with DP HDMI Black

The new ROG Swift PG32UQ has a 4K IPS display, 144 Hz refresh rate, and 1ms moving picture response time. I don't know what the heck that means, but ok. The design looks nice. That's all I care about. Also, wonder if I can hang it on my wall?

Again, the Asus ROG collection of gaming laptops is pretty interesting. They finally have the G15 but why there's no camera or fingerprint sensor? Last year, I bought an HP 15.6 inch laptop and I really like the design and features.



ASUS ROG Gladius II Origin Wired USB Optical Ergonomic FPS Gaming Mouse featuring Aura Sync RGB, 12000 DPI Optical, 50G Acceleration, 250 IPS sensors, and swappable Omron switches, Black

My HP has a fingerprint sensor and I didn't really care about it until I actually use it. I also like the speaker which is pretty loud. In the old days, the laptop used to have poor and small sound quality. But now, they're pretty loud and clear.

Other than that, the next-gen Asus ROG various laptops will have Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 graphics and AMD Ryzen 9, 5900hx mobile processor. But, dude, they're pretty expensive. I would have bought one if only I had the money.

I just remembered that the ROG gaming laptop does have a fingerprint sensor combined with the power buttons. And some do have a webcam. But, you'll have to check it out yourself before you buy. I've never really seen any of these laptops and sometimes the specs don't say it.

There's a new Zen Duo, ROG Strix G, ROG Flow X13, new design, new powerful specs, size, 90w battery, and even different looks. Now, you can even buy an Asus external GPU, ROG XG mobile that is even smaller and portable from the Razer version, Core X.

I haven't yet check what's new with Razer, so come back often to read my blog and youtube channel. The new Asus products are also not out yet, but I'll update them here whenever possible. I'll be looking for some really cool products in CES 2021 and be posting them here. So stay tuned!

My Portable monitor as second extended monitor


TOPOSH Portable Monitor 15.6” USB Type-C Full HD 1080 IPS USB C Portable Monitor Built-in Dual Speakers Compatible with Laptop Computer Raspberry pi Gaming Monitor for PS4 PS3 Xbox

Hey guys,

Check it out!

The portable monitor is the rage nowadays. There are tons of brands out there available right now. And, most of them are pretty good. I've got a feeling they're designed and manufactured by some Chinese specialist company that will cater to your own company specifications.

That's why you can see, some of the design of these products look kinda the same. Only, the brand name is different. The one I bought is from China OEM and it doesn't even have a brand name. Although, its design is identical to Eyoyo. But, it's been working great for me. I love how portable and flexible this is.

As you can see from the video, I'm using the portable monitor as an extended monitor. An extended monitor is like using two computers at once. You can split your work between two windows. I like watching youtube, so my main monitor is used to watch videos while my other monitor is for checking emails and my other social media.

The good thing about my portable monitor is that I can also use it on the go. I can use it as a monitor for my Samsung S10+. It's also compatible with my xbox one s and raspberry pi. You can use it with your raspberry pi 3 as a Linux computer or retro gaming console. You should definitely get a portable monitor!

Here's some popular brand you might want to take a look!

Definitely, get one as a second monitor or for use with your raspberry pi project. Use it as a Linux computer or retro gaming machine. You don't even need them and can just use a USB thumb drive to watch movies or listen to your favorite music. Way cool!

Remember, this thing isn't that light if you're thinking of bringing it around for mobile computing. I like to use it with my S10+ and access my emails and social media. It's like going around with my laptop. Only that, my phone is my computer. And, I don't even have to tether to a laptop to access the net. Since my phone is already connected 24hrs!

I'm surprised the idea of using your phone as the main computer with a lapdock haven't caught on yet by now. I mean, the phone is already that powerful enough by now. Samsung has done a good job with Samsung dex and Linux on dex. Google and other big company should follow suit. Why pay for another laptop when all your data are already inside your phone?
