GPU water block fished and blanched up to 2.2 GHz: Alphacool Aurora GPX-A RX 5700 XT for the Sapphire RX 5700 XT Nitro+| Mr. ProtoTYPE

The fact that I am given prototypes, PVT or evaluation samples in advance by various production products is not new. Also, with a little luck, you can pick up one or the other good piece in advance at the OEM, which you know so well, without having to beg the customer in question big. Be it as it is – something always works and it is never [...]


[Update] Big real-world test with three X570 motherboards in a closed PC – the truth about voltage regulators, fans, temperatures and the onboard sound

The largest possible CPU on the smallest possible motherboard, best still remove all the heat sinks of the voltage regulators and that's the basis for the next YouTube orgy. Of course, I couldn't completely escape my curiosity about the possible limits, but in the end one should also be aware of his responsibility as a medium and not panic the [...]

Up to 30% cheaper? AMD to attack gaming notebook market in 2020

AMD has already managed to irrevocably and sustainably break the paradigms of previous pricing in the PC industry in the desktop sector. I wrote about this yesterday in the article "Intel is modest: New Cascade Lake-X CPUs with old Skylake architecture and Threadripper 2 prices". But the desktop isnot everything and the market with [...]


Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Breakpoint – Ubisoft's FarAssassinsDivisionCryCreed or how to get everything and nothing, including benchmarks

Let's be honest: I was really looking forward to the game. With Ghost Recon Wildlands I have already spent a lot of my rather scarce free time in the past – voluntarily and really motivated. That's when the new game came to me just right. Or maybe not? I'm still really at a sway, whether all this has been mixed together [...]


News Test

Nvidia counters the RX 5500 XT with a GTX 1660 Super, almost cannibalizes its own Ti with it and waits relaxed with the old 2060 for a RX 5600 (XT)

I deliberately waited a bit to not only press speculative data into a news article, but also to come up with some more detailed content. AMD and Nvidia of course continue their small-scale launch war as usual, with one leading and the other following. So good, so well known. But what further information do we have in the meantime? Of course, I [...]


Thermal Paste Meets Football Field – AMD's Ryzen Threadripper, the Best Method and The Right Quantity in Laboratory Testing | Tutorial

Sometimes the best methods fail on the largest surface and that's why I once looked more intensively at the optimal method. Now with "Try and Error" you can apply paste again and again and then measure it elaborately, because you don't see how the paste actually spreads with the cooler applied. Well, really not? Me already! The [...]
