Even though Intel is currently being celebrated for the new BIOS profiles for CPUs from Raptor Lake onwards on all the Z790 mainboards – has anyone ever asked themselves what will happen to the Z690 mainboards, which are also compatible? There’s nothing yet, nothing has been announced and you slowly get the impression that those [...]

With the Corsair MP700 PRO SE, the manufacturer does what MSI did with the SPATIUM M580 Frozr and uses the new expansion stage of the SSD design with the Phison 26 and fast Micron NAND for even more speed. I’m testing the coolerless 4 TB version today, but that doesn’t mean you don’t need a cooler. But you can choose from a 3rd [...]
Today is a public holiday in Saxony and, instead of the most serious technology, I present you with a pearl of esoteric cross-talk. Yes, it’s about the legendary water structurer according to Dr. Georges Lakhovsky, which is supposed to make the water softer and the buyer poorer at the same time. At least the latter works without scientific [...]
After we tested the DXP4800 Plus from Ugreen in detail a few days ago, the smaller 2-bay version should of course not be missing. For most users it doesn’t have to be a maximum of 96TB in RAID5, a simple and above all cheaper backup solution is sufficient. And this is exactly what Ugreen wants to offer with the DXP2800, so let’s take a [...]
With the View 270 TG ARGB, THERMALTAKE is launching a compact “aquarium” case with a glass front and side panel for less than €100, which, despite its modern look, is able to build on the virtues of its older siblings. Read on to find out whether it succeeds and what has to be sacrificed to achieve this. Even though I don’t like [...]
The problem with the Intel desktop processors of the 13th and 14th generation, i.e. Raptor Lake-S and Raptor Lake-S-Refresh, is not getting any smaller and the bad news does not stop. At this point, one could almost believe that Intel has simply left the whole thing to the motherboard manufacturers and is hoping to divert attention away from its [...]
I don’t think I was the only one who was a little surprised when Ugreen announced that it would now be offering network storage in addition to power banks, chargers and other small electronics – these markets don’t have much in common, but the advertised specifications are exciting. Ideliberately took my time with a review and [...]
If you follow the various articles on the many small systems here with us, the conclusion has been that Intel can offer decent CPU performance, but AMD is pulling away in terms of GPU. The newer chips with Xe graphics have narrowed the gap, but are nowhere near closing it. This could change today, as a Core Ultra with Arc graphics was allowed to [...]
I have to explain the title, of course, because there are two reasons for it. Firstly, despite the same packaging and the same data sheets, TeamGroup has now launched a completely different SSD than it did around 7 months ago and secondly, this one resembles the recently tested Corsair MP600 Elite like an egg to another. I will explain both points [...]
Some of my articles mature like old wine and it’s certainly not wrong to look at them from time to time, even with current references. This is especially true now with regard to the current “drama” surrounding Intel’s CPUs and the move with the specs for the baseline. Nobody can pretend that Intel didn’t know anything [...]
One lapse of attention and there it was, the so-called “Next Gen” update for Fallout 4. Hurray for Steam as the cold-blooded executor of a digital outrage that is probably unparalleled in this form. What was supposed to be a grand reunion with the Commonwealth quickly turned out to be a tired copy of earlier promises. Bethesda, the [...]
I have not yet commented on the now ubiquitous investigations and explanations of the problems with Intel’s 13th and 14th generation K-CPUs, because pure speculation brings nothing but more speculation. As I also don’t use any special “OC features” from certain motherboard manufacturers in all launch reviews and also in my [...]
With the Masterbox 600, COOLER MASTER aims to provide a solid basis for all price ranges of PC construction, from entry-level systems to high-end builds. It is certainly a difficult undertaking to design a case that is still compatible with the budget of an entry-level or mid-range PC, but offers such a wide range of functions that you could [...]
The discussions about the correct and optimal application of thermal paste on CPU or GPU are as old as the pastes themselves. Whether blobs, sausages, circles, dots or whatever shape – the fear of applying too much or too little paste in the wrong place is huge, especially among first-time users and newcomers. Reason enough for our community [...]
No, you don’t have deja vu. I already tested this budget air cooler 3 years ago, but back then it was still in silver and under the SilentiumPC brand. What exactly motivated the manufacturer, which is now known as Endorfy, to bring out the cooler again? I have no idea. But with the new black finish and attractive price, we don’t want [...]
