Badly fitting coolers, too low performance with actually good waterblocks and bent CPUs – meanwhile not only the feedback of the readers is piling up, but also very similar reports from the board partners, cooler manufacturers and system integrators. Based on my own experiences, I went in search of clues and first tried to sort out [...]
Good CPU cooling has always been important, but with Intel’s new, very heat-sensitive Alder Lake CPUs even more so. Especially if you turn the clock dial yourself, a few degrees Celsius more or less can mean several hundred megahertz more or less stable clock speed in return. All the more important is a good cooler with the right contact [...]

What does an animal do when it finds itself cornered? It bites wildly. And a larger company? It secures the supposed silverware, initiates a wave of warnings and lawsuits in order to be able to derive the greatest possible benefit from (still) valid patents. We’ll see exactly how and against whom the company is taking action (including an [...]

All pads are not equal in quality, that’s not a news. But I can already hint and spoil in my function as padman, that money also cools. The hot GDDR6X on a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 is suddenly 50% cooler? This is not a dream or a stupid marketing bubble, because it can be done. Unfortunately, it also costs a lot of money. But there are also [...]
With the generously dimensioned 7000 series, Corsair brings two full-tower cases with high-end requirements to the market. In this article, I want to put the feature-oriented Airflow version through its paces and find out if the 20kg Behemoth lives up to its claims. An all-in-one compact water cooling system can be installed by anyone, there is [...]
Alphacool vs. aquacomputer? Once again, today we have a reader review by Elmo from our community that addresses this very issue of GPU water blocks. Since I find the test, the methodology and also the used technique extremely exciting, I have summarized the whole thing as a real article and with the author’s consent also slightly changed so [...]
Intel had unveiled one of the world’s biggest chips not too long ago and the picture that emerges after all the releases so far is quite overwhelming. Intel’s Xe HPC 2-Tile (PVC) GPU uses a mix of Intel’s 7nm, Intel’s 10nm ESF and TSMC’s 7nm (or 5nm) process technology for this, which is brought together in Foveros 3D [...]
Fear of leaking water and the death of all electronics in the PC as an fatal consequence? Fear no more, the LEAKSHIELD from Aqua Computer is designed to prevent just that: provide a leakage insurance against water accidents in your cooling circuit. Cost? With 119.90 euros certainly cheaper than a big leak. Effect? Priceless! Admittedly, the idea [...]
Anyone planning a water cooling system will sooner or later ask the question, “Which pump do I need?” If you now turn to a community with the question, you will receive many different answers. But predominantly the answer will be: “A D5”. Why this is so and whether the massively expanded version of Aquacomputer is Swiss [...]
