Granted, it sounds a bit lurid, but in the end it is. Well, at least a little. But which all-in-one compact water cooling system can cope with up to 400 watts of waste heat (and even a bit more)? Of course, the watt figures are a thing of the past because they also depend on the CPU model used and the resulting heat flux density. That’s [...]

Corsair H150i RGB PRO XT under test – Strong 360mm AiO with a simple design, but with lots of colour
Corsair has long been an established name among the manufacturers of AiO water coolers, and despite its high price level it can always hold its own in the first places in price comparisons, provided you sort by popularity. This makes it all the more surprising that of the 16 Corsair AiOs currently on sale, only one model with a 360mm radiator has [...]
Even 3 years after release, the ML240L RGB is still one of the most popular (and cheapest) 240mm AiO watercoolers on the German market. Now Cooler Master is releasing a revised version with the V2, which is supposed to offer more performance for the same price in addition to a new look. If you want to refresh your memory, here is the link to the [...]
For almost a month now, the MAX M240-T from the 60-euro segment has been available for another AiO water cooling system from the Asian budget manufacturer Alseye in Germany, which is being marketed on the German market via Inter-Tech. In contrast to the Halo H240, however, the MAX M240 does not use RGB lighting of the pump and fan. In addition, no [...]
The name Noctua is likely to be known to most, be it the private silent enthusiast, Sys admin with sensitive ears or even users in the industry. A wide range of products and very quiet operation are associated with the Austrian/Taiwanese company for as long as the chocolate-brown color of the fans. Some time ago they got a new robe in light grey [...]
Our forum member Casi030 has recently given himself up to the grinding again and since many readers write that heatpipe direct touch is bad, he has once done a test for himself with a massive radiator floor. For this, he has secured a Scythe Kotetsu Mark II TUF Gaming Alliance to compete against the AMD Wraith Prism and the Arctic Freezer 33 [...]
The title already says everything we will find in the article today. Having recently presented in the article “Aqua Computer Flow Meter “High-Flow” in the laboratory test – What can a flow meter for 40 euros?”, two more sensors have to run today to determine a first winner. And since the “High Flow” is also [...]
Aqua Computer today presents a new series of high-quality glass compensating containers. According to the manufacturer, the new containers of the ULTITUBE D5 series are made of highly resistant borosilicate glass in Germany and offer the possibility to install a pump from the very popular D5 series. For the first time, it has been possible to [...]
I don't want to build the whole thing too theoretically, but I decided to start this first setup seamlessly due to the positive response to the last article "Aqua Computer Flow Meter "High-Flow" in the laboratory test – What can a flow meter for 40 euros?" refine something and make it usable for normal laboratory life [...]
Many trust the manufacturer's specifications in terms of accuracy when it comes to flow measurements for their own custom loop, but without being able to verify it in any way. If there is any information on accuracy, upper and lower limits or the measuring methods. Since I can now take fairly reliable measurements with an ultrasonic measuring [...]
I have long been annoyed about the treasures in the water circuit, because an exact measurement of the flow and the impairment of the same by components such as radiators, quick connectors and other brakes was not possible until now and the dispersion on the other hand was so enormous. , that I preferred not to take such measurements and their [...]
The part has already irritated me, if only because of the size, which should have been called small. Well, the Corsair One is completely custom loop, but here I don't have the Frickelei with the watered graphics card. On a footprint of just under 19 x 19 cm and a height of just under 39 cm, the H1 from NZXT is quite compact. In addition, there [...]
There are now GPU water blocks like sand by the sea. To then fish out exactly that one grain, which still offers an informative added value, because it e.g. is also completely different in design, naturally becomes heavier with time (and the increasing amount of products). You're looking forward to it like a little snow king, when you happen [...]
Everybody can cool with air and honestly: the adrenaline rush when you take apart and rebuild a card that costs several thousand euros is not to be despised. But the basic idea behind the whole water action is actually quite simple. How much more clocks and thus also performance can be squeezed out of a Quadro RTX 6000 by the better cooling alone [...]
Sometimes the number of reviews varies noticeably, but this is not because I might want to write something or have my face tanned by the video lamps. No, it is the work "besides" that nobody sees, but which is necessary for the creation of many articles and if it is basic study on the subject. Because you should only write about things [...]
Until now, the popular GPU cooler could only be mounted obliquely or not at all on a GeForce RTX 2080 (Ti), RTX 2080 Super or RTX 2070 Super, as the two Bracktes did not contain any really suitable threaded holes. However, as demand piled up and there are enough cards with less powerful coolers on the market, the question of a conversion was [...]
I had already mentioned in the article "Intel Core i9 vs. AMD Ryzen 9: How convex or concave are the current heatspreaders really and what are the consequences?" roughly torn, where I see the problem of the so-called IHS. The feedback from the readers was very positive, with voices also being heard calling for a more accurate [...]
The last generation of the AiO now sends Raijintek into the orcus and delights the bargain-hunting PC-Bastler with the EOS 360 RBW, which is also available as a 240 and which would actually be quite sufficient. But the customer still seems to like to have the longest, which is why it was possible to set off more longer models from the Orcus. A [...]
Everyone now has one with air, so Corsair is finally following in his way. With the Corsair A500, however, you go straight to the full and pop a whopping 200 grams more than our reference (Noctua NH-U12A) on the parquet. Artificial, because it is a significantly larger double fan cooler with visibly more cooling surface and wide hips. So it will [...]
The fact that you can make very good products like Noctua's U-Series with the 120 fans is certainly always in it, but it is amazing how a relatively compact tower cooler from the same house can compete against the baroque competition of the cooling surface inflationary claim white. And since I will now test air coolers again, you need a kind [...]
The better is the good enemy, at least from the point of view of RGB Illuminati and rainbow addicts. Because Alphacool has also visually raised the polar bear with addressable LED. Although this pre-filled cooling is at first glance similar to a normal AiO solution, Alphacool, as a supplier of various water cooling components, has the advantage of [...]
