The demand for the Founders Edition of the GeForce RTX 3080 should be immense, because with a circulated performance above an old “T-Rex”, thus the Titan RTX, for 699 Euro, greed should quickly eat up the brain. A spending spree in a green bloodlust? That’s not so unlikely. In any case, the bags with the advance orders were [...]

Since the new 12-pin sockets are so well known and one of the NDAs has fallen in the meantime, one should also clean up some of the rumours, mistakes and confusion. In the end, only a small communication lapse led to half of the power supply industry suddenly gasping for breath in panic and hyperventilating within a few days. But I want to unravel [...]
So now it has only just begun, the complete RTX’ing of the whole universe. Because if up to now either the prices for the powerhouses or the missing muscle weakness in the lower shelf area were gallantly in the way of a traced mass infection, now finally also for the small price people we will se nice amping and shading! I admit, the price [...]
The Sound BlasterX G6 looks like a G5, at least at first glance and as long as you don't look at the price tag. The 149 euros on the Creative homepage are a whopping 30 euros above the current street price of the predecessor. Of course, the legitimate question arises as to whether the whole thing is really worth the extra charge. With its USB [...]
Today’s article is actually more of a random product, because during the preparations for the Ampere launch I not only renewed and significantly expanded the test system, but also all the metrics and graphics for the evaluation. this is exactly where the whole test starts, because the depth of the evaluation was not possible in this form [...]
If you take a look in the course of the articles I (Tim, not Igor!) published, you will quickly notice that my focus and the test-related feel-good corner here at igor’sLAB is on consumer cooling solutions and especially the AiO water cooling systems. For now. And not everyone can get their hands on an Erlkönig with unicorn rarity for [...]
Gigabyte puts a B550 motherboard on the market with the B550 Vision D, which is rather poaching in the nobler upper house with currently a good 260 euro and is partly almost twice as expensive as the cheapest X570 boards. While I still had stomach aches with the Gigabyte B550 Aorus Master to explain the price in a plausible way, the Gigabyte B550 [...]
We already know that cheaper products have to be produced more simply in order to be able to hit the targeted price point at all. If you take a graphics card from the lower middle class as an example, then it is definitely worthwhile to examine the consequences. Exemplary because it affects all manufacturers and products to the same extent [...]
Wavemaster has been offering a small pair of 2.0 stereo loudspeakers for some time now, which were deliberately placed below the Cube Mini Neo. And since I don't only test high-end, but also like to browse the budget area for bargains for my readers, the almost 70 Euros are actually not a hurdle. And if I have to be honest, I had a real déjà [...]
The German notebook manufacturer Schenker had already presented the XMG Apex 15 some time ago, so I am not presenting a world first here, of course. Since one can fall back on socketed CPUs from AMD with the Apex 15, because a B450 board with socket AM4 is used, this notebook makes it quite interesting for me. Except for the built-in graphic unit [...]
