The Best Budget Multi-Material 3D Printer? Elevated Systems 2025-07-30 | In this in-depth Flashforge AD5X review, I put this $399 CoreXY multi-material 3D printer to the test. With support for PLA, PETG, and TPU—including multi-color and multi-material prints—the AD5X looks like a budget Bambu killer on paper. But does the hardware live up to the hype? And what about the locked-down Flashforge-Orca slicer, firmware limitations, and excessive filament waste? I cover print quality, performance, reliability, and all the software restrictions you need to know.

Framework 12 Review: A Brilliant Idea—But Does It Deliver? Elevated Systems 2025-07-10 | I’ve reviewed every product @frameworkcomputer has released—and I’ve always supported their mission of modularity, repairability, and the right to repair. But after testing the new Framework 12 2-in-1, I have some serious concerns.

Elevated Systems 2025-07-01 | In this Qidi Plus 4 review, I put this high-temp 3D printer through real-world testing to see if it truly delivers industrial-grade performance—without the fire hazard. 1 Year after reports of overheating and a potential fire risk, I test Qidi Tech’s fixes, print advanced materials like PPA-CF and PAHT-GF, and evaluate print quality, reliability, and safety. From functional automotive parts to flexible TPU prints, the Plus 4 handles it all. Is this the best budget 3D printer for engineering materials in 2025? Let’s find out.

Best Expandable Mini PC Under $500? Elevated Systems 2025-06-24 | In this video, I review the MinisForum NAB9 Pro, the most expandable mini PC under $500. Powered by an Intel Core i9-12900HK and featuring both OCuLink and USB4, this compact desktop delivers impressive performance for productivity, content creation, and even gaming—especially when paired with a dedicated GPU like the RX 7700 XT. I compare it to the UN1290, Geekom A8, AceMagic W1, and even the Apple M4 Mac Mini, covering benchmarks like Cinebench, PugetBench, Blender, and 3DMark Night Raid.
