First and foremost, a warning to everyone not to replicate this. You will inevitably cause irreparable damage to your valuable CPU. The current version of the MSI Center allows for voltage and clock increases for the X3D CPU. Unfortunately, for those who are fully committed to experimenting here, we have sacrificed a CPU for the sake of science [...]

Today we welcome another brand in the highly competitive market of AiO complete water coolers, as Sharkoon now also offers three models. I have often praised Sharkoon when it comes to peripherals, and you can read how the two models with 240mm radiators fared in my test in the following article. The last and larger model of the new triumvirate [...]
This summer, AMD’s Vega graphics cards will celebrate their fifth birthday. Always standing in the shadow of Nvidia’s Pascal cards, the power-hungry cards were never really popular with gamers. Currently, the small models with 56 shader clusters change hands for just over 100€ on the second-hand market. Without further ado, we [...]
After we had a whole series of large air coolers on the testbench, including the almost gigantic be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4, let’s look at the other extreme today. Whether this small cooler and its 92mm fan can tame a Ryzen 9 – and under which conditions – you can find out in the following article. Packaging and scope of delivery [...]
Today follows the last part of this little hobby project, but the end comes with a bang (metaphorically): Ryzen 7, 16GB RAM and a proud 32TB of storage. I had already teased the slightly extended version of the normal NAS, now it can finally show what it can do! The title already gave it away, for this system, which can also be used as a server [...]
In the AiO water cooling category, Alphacool recently took first place in terms of cooling performance with its “Aurora HPE” series, partly thanks to the more expensive copper radiator. However, the “Core” series does not have this advantage, because a radiator made of the cheaper aluminum is used here again. We will test [...]
The last AiO water cooler we tested here from EK was from the “Basic” series and came entirely without lighting. However, it is not possible to do without RGB completely, because the new “Nucleus” series brings RGB back to the foreground. In the following article, we will find out whether it is possible to deliver a good [...]
Towards the end of last year, we first had the 280mm variant of this AiO water cooler in review, and now the manufacturer asked me to also include the version with a 360mm radiator in the rankings. Recently, a decent overall package of cooling performance, workmanship and warranty length was put together, but now the CPU temperature is to be [...]
To be able to cover the higher TDP classes of processors in the future, I upgraded my testbench from a Ryzen 5 3600 to a Ryzen 9 3950X. However, so that the compact or budget coolers are not completely overtaxed, testing is done in three stages. This article serves as a reference and basis for future comparisons so that tested air and water [...]
At the beginning of the year, Cooler Master introduced a new series of AiO water coolers with the FLUX series, and we already had the 240mm radiator model in review. Now we would also like to have the 360mm variant tested here again, but there is also a first look at the performance of the soon to be released “30 Years Cooler Master” [...]
