In this part of the video, Dmitry introduces a variety of cool PC accessories that many people might not have heard of. First, he showcases the PC Panel, an audio controller made of maple with four aluminum wheels that function as both dials and buttons. This device offers extensive volume control and macro customization capabilities through its software, allowing users to assign different functions to each dial, such as controlling browser volume, music player volume, or microphone gain. Although powerful, Dmitry mentions that the device is lightweight and not equipped with rubber adhesives for stability.
Next, he briefly highlights the new Pure Loop all-in-one coolers from Be Quiet, which feature silent operation, flexible mounting options, and future-proofing capabilities.
Finally, Dmitry discusses the Corsair LT100 lighting towers, which are RGB light towers that can be positioned to face the user or towards a wall for ambient lighting. These towers are easily reconfigurable and offer numerous color effects through the iCue software, providing soft and accurate illumination without visible individual LEDs.

In this part of the video, the presenter discusses two main devices: an adhesive headphone holder and an ASUS AI noise-cancelling microphone adapter. The adhesive headphone holder can be attached to a tower and includes an RGB lighting feature that can be controlled by a button. However, it is noted to be expensive at $130, offering limited functionality beyond aesthetics.
The ASUS AI noise-cancelling microphone adapter is highlighted for its utility during video calls by eliminating unwanted background noise. It is compatible with any 3.5mm 4-pole connection and functions on various devices due to its plug-and-play nature. The adapter processes noise cancellation via a USB sound card, producing impressive results by muting significant background noise such as drills and keyboard typing. Comparisons are made with other noise cancellation solutions, emphasizing the adapter’s effectiveness without taxing system resources like an RTX GPU. However, it is noted that while the adapter filters out ambient noise, it may still pick up voices and other distinct sounds.

In this segment, the video discusses various tech gadgets and their functionalities. It first covers the Kikron T10 USB hub, which features a USB-C connection compatible with MacBooks, Windows Type-C notebooks, and some smartphones. The hub offers multiple ports, including SD card and TF readers, USB 3 ports, HDMI, VGA, and an RJ-45 jack, with a red LED indicator showing when it’s powered. Despite its usefulness, the SD card reader’s slow speed is noted.
Next, the Corsair iCUE Nexus, a touchscreen accessory for Corsair keyboards or desktops, is highlighted. Its key feature is its customizable software, allowing users to set up shortcuts, media controls, system statistics display (like GPU temperature and CPU load), and synchronized lighting for other iCUE devices. The Nexus’s screen resolution is satisfactory, but its side-viewing angles are poor. Its price is $99.
Lastly, the video introduces Phanteks Neon RGB flexible lighting strips, which provide a customizable, soft illumination for PC interiors. These strips can be routed around components and fixed using adhesive brackets or mounted under motherboard standoffs, adding aesthetic appeal to the PC enclosure.

In this part of the video, several unique and questionable RGB accessories for PCs are discussed. The first item is an HDMI 4K RGB Razer Chroma-compatible cable, noted for its high cost and need for a USB connection to control its software, though its illumination is limited and considered somewhat unnecessary. The segment then covers aluminum colored thumb screws from Cablemod, which can only be fastened by thumb and are non-magnetic. Next, fun and functional mic covers from Logitech are introduced, which replace standard foam filters and prevent popping noises, all without any unpleasant odors.
The video also humorously highlights Razer’s Respawn gaming gum, available in three flavors and marketed to improve focus without a caffeine crash. The gum is sold in packs of 150 pieces for $28 and is claimed to effectively boost focus for gaming and other activities. Finally, another RGB accessory, the Vivify W10 gaming USB-C to USB-A illuminated cable, is mentioned, which also features one-sided illumination.

In this segment, the speaker discusses a non-RGB USB cable that requires choosing a specific color when ordering. They mention that the cable is very stiff, making it difficult to position for optimal visibility of the lighting. The speaker humorously notes the label “gaming USB cable” on the package.
