The better is the enemy of the good, and that is exactly why we have taken stock after almost 40 tested fans, evaluated the feedback from readers and added more details. Although the effort involved increases somewhat, many processes can be automated. The question of which units to base the whole thing on has kept us busy for some time. Since the [...]

This article is about the external extension of an internal double AIO loop in the direction of a large custom loop, and if you’re going to build bigger, then build really big. At least, as far as the radiator is concerned. Over a few air-cooled stations and a BQ Silent Loop for the CPU, I ended up with the Alphacool Eiswolf 2 360 for my [...]
When a graphics card “dies”, you really only have two options: species-appropriate scrapping or emergency admission in the “graphics card hospital”. I admit it, I had a harder time with the title than usual and actually there are two authors, Bernhard and me, because we both had the victim in our hands. But I’m more [...]
The latest headset from Steelseries has a lot of PR firepower, so we didn’t miss the opportunity to see if you can not only hear the great tones from the headset yourself, but also objectively prove them. The following article will tell you how the wired version of the Arctis Nova Pro with the included DAC performed in the test and what of [...]
G.Skill is probably one of the best-known brands in the desktop memory market and of course, the Taiwanese manufacturer also has several interesting SKUs for the new DDR5 standard on offer, of which we finally get to test one for you today. Specifically, it’s a Trident Z5 RGB kit with silver heatsinks and DDR5-6400 CL32 XMP profile, which we [...]
The radi(k)all fan of the current AMD graphics cards is an acoustic plague that is better fought where it originates, namely on the card itself. After a few minutes of testing with the cheeky original, all doubts as to whether the conversion would even be possible were quickly thrown overboard. Pain makes you brave, and in the end you will lean [...]
Press almost 1000 watts through a standard RTX 3090 Ti? Runs. Except for the coils… | Igor’s Friends
Today is Friday and thus for many also the last working day this week. Well, exceptions prove the rule, but since I’m working on a longer test, today I’ll just share a story from my three months older colleague Ronaldo Buassali, operator of TecLab and full-time Head of Latin America at Galaxy Microsystems Ltd (as well as passionate LN2 [...]
Who doesn’t know them, the multiple entries of the supposedly same graphics card and the annoying consequences of this registry collecting mania? Sometimes you don’t even consciously notice this and then wonder why a new graphics card of the same chip type suddenly runs unstable after a replacement. DDU is certainly a solution, but [...]
Edifier can certainly do a lot, from cheap to expensive, but the Airpulse A200 are so special that I just did not want to deprive myself (and thus you) a test. These active speakers are anything but riot or party speakers, but still have enough low end and level to be able to do that if need be. Only they don’t want to, because there is also [...]
Why do you think there was no HD 7830, but the rather unloved HD 7790? We had reported in a news item back then that we came across a board during the test of a new Radeon HD 7850 in the rare singleslot design, which didn’t contain a normal Pitcairn chip with 1024 shader units, but a weaker engineering sample with only 768 shader units [...]
