Many manufacturers have been experimenting with the Honeywell PTM7950 thermal pad and graphene pads on graphics cards for some time now. With good success, as AMD board partners in particular (and AMD on the MBA cards) or MSI prove. Paste or no paste, the load on graphics cards in particular is far too heavy a burden for many normal pastes in the [...]

Over the last few days, rumors have been circulating about the prices of the upcoming AMD Ryzen 9000 desktop CPUs with “Zen 5” architecture. A leak on the Anandtech forum has revealed possible prices for the four CPUs in the series and indicates an aggressive pricing model that could compete with Intel’s Raptor Lake CPUs. The [...]
I have been and continue to be confronted with graphics cards from my readers whose initially good cooling performance dwindles after just a few months and whose hotspot temperatures are then well above the 100 degree mark. I have already published several articles on this topic, dealing with the symptoms and repair, but now I finally have the [...]
Today I’m testing two pastes from Thermal Grizzly. The Kryonaut, which has been following us around for almost 10 years and feels like it’s stuck between every second CPU and its cooler in the forums, and a new paste as a “secret” pre-series product, which will be on the market in around three months. I have already tested [...]
The Ryzen 9000 “Granite Ridge” processors will soon be available worldwide, allowing customers to experience the new Zen 5 technology for the first time. Prior to this, however, AMD has already presented a new roadmap at an event in Los Angeles, which shows the development of Zen 6 and Zen 7, as reported by Computerbase. On July [...]
With the TC500 LUXE, Corsair aims to close the wide gap between gaming chairs with a racing seat design and expensive high-end office chairs. During the design process, the focus was on comfort and flexibility and you can read in the test whether the chair covered in breathable fabric can do more than just be comfortable. While Corsair’s [...]
The Corsair XTM70 Extreme Performance is convincing and even if the price is quite hefty even without iCUE, you still get an honest product. That’s a little spoiler in advance, even if the price really hurts me. At almost 17 euros for 3 grams, you have almost reached the gourmet temple and real caviar almost seems like an alternative bargain [...]
For some time now, there have been increasing reports of stability problems with Intel’s 14th and 13th generation desktop CPUs. These do not just affect individual users, but appear to be a widespread problem that affects both private customers and professional users alike. Initially, Intel was at a loss as to the causes of the stability [...]
The NZXT C1500 is a powerful and high-performance power supply that can deliver up to 3000W of power for short periods of time if required. With the upcoming NVIDIA RTX 5090, you are definitely on the safe side with a 1500W ATX v3.1 compliant power supply. Reason enough for me to once again let my friend Aris from Hardwarebusters have his say (and [...]
Summer is in full swing and temperatures are rising. But what’s the best way to cool down? In addition to a cold bath or an ice cream, there is now a technological refreshment: the new B650E AORUS STEALTH ICE mainboard from Gigabyte, which not only provides visual cooling with its white design, but is also intended to attract customers. At [...]
