Sendy Audio Aiva – Magnetostatic Stereo Headphones Review – Lots of wood, but still a fair price and some trouble for the competitors

The Sendy Audio Aiva has me touched (and not just because it’s a magnetostat), and has made me wonder a bit both beforehand and afterward. But more about that in a moment, because I have to elaborate a bit more. However, why I’m testing a pair of headphones for 649 Euros today is quickly explained: I’m currently testing an [...]


Dead Space Remake – Excellent gameplay, a necropmorphic slaughter slab for those with strong nerves, and a GeForce RTX 4090 with snap breathing

Thanks EA for bringing up, dusting off and polishing up a classic that was once THE game par excellence for me, because Dead Space already captivated me almost 15 years ago! In the truest sense of the word, because I sunk a lot of wonderful hours into it and was virtually mentally tied to the chair. And this enormous time span is of course also [...]


GeForce RTX 4070 Ti iCraft from MAXSUN is a real waifu

To date, MaxSun has only launched one RTX 40 GPU, the RTX 4080 iCraft. The company’s RTX 4070 Ti and RTX 4080 models have a lot more in common, as they both use a similar 3-slot design with 3 fans. But more importantly, they also have the same white cooler outfit.   The iCraft MaxSun RTX 4070 Ti relies on the usual AD104 GPU with 7680 [...]


Slime in the tubes including a long-term test – Particle filter, do-it-yourself filter and the follow-up costs of PVC tubes

No, it is not a contradiction, but transparent plastic tube (usually PVC) is cheap to buy, but really expensive in follow-up costs. Who can, prefer to go for hard tubing or such nice things as EPDM or Teflon, but there are also situations where you end up torn as to what it should be. And many a person is afraid to take anything other than PVC [...]


Simple bug instead of feature: Why the AD103-301 on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 only fixes a bug and the AD104-251 of the upcoming RTX 4070 does as well

The speculations why NVIDIA introduces the AD103-301 on the RTX 4080 were quite manifold. It was rumored that the chip would ultimately be cheaper and could also save costs, and quite a few media and commentators in the forums already speculated about a price saving and of course also about the fact that the end customer would probably not get [...]


Vapor gate including failure of the entire quality management? Background on the cooler problem of the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (MBA)

Before I mention more numbers about the Radeon RX 7900 XTX and the cooler problem, as well as a few words about the supply chain and its failure in quality management, we also have to talk about quality management in general and quality assurance as well as quality control in particular today. Why? Because it helps to better understand the complex [...]


RMA wave freezed: Is AMD now running out of cards? The warehouses of the Radeon RX 7900 XTX are yawningly empty

I had already reported recently that AMD, even without an official statement about the actual causes, has been offering both a return of the graphics card and an RMA with an exchange for a working card for a few days. We can also see the conditions again here in the (already published) first letter from AMD support. Thus, it should take a bit of [...]


Hotspot problem of AMD’s Radeon RX 7900 XTX (MBA): Even several batches of the vapor chamber affected, replacement of thousands of cards starts

I deliberately waited until I could get congruent and plausible information through various information channels, which can now also shed some light after two to three weeks. While AMD’s support initially resisted even acknowledging the hotspot problem as such and described the 110 °C hotspot temperature as completely normal, the situation [...]
