Rotted, torn and broken: Cougar Immersa in the long-term basement child test or what you better not do headsets | Caution: Explicit photos!

I’ve been wrestling with myself for a long time about whether to publish the current state of this headset at all, but I just do it. For two reasons. First, you should also pay attention to things that you (e.g. by me) (as the then proud owner) and secondly, the current state also proves (apart from the hygienic state of emergency) that such [...]


Workshop for thrift foxes: RGB lighting for the PC with motherboard control for less than 3 euros? That’s really possible! | Practice

RGB is everywhere today – fans, components, input devices, even toilet lids (no joke!) are already available with RGB lighting. In some respects, I can even understand the trend: the play of colours is usually pretty to look at and individually adaptable to your own preferences. Unfortunately, however, integration also makes many parts [...]


Practice test: Nubert NUBOX A-125 as a space-saving replacement for the Klipsch R-15PM in the near field and a lot of fun playing

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 [...]


KFA2 GeForce RTX 2070 Super Work The Frames in review – KFA2 annoys premium vendors with new board, usable fans, lots of RGB and a starry sky

Normally, KFA2 positions itself with the cards of the respective performance classes rather in the most favorable range and thus shows some Pixel pharmacists the cold shoulder and where it can go long in the customer search, because many of these models have been among the absolute price/performance winners for years. But Asia is now ticking quite [...]


We build an AMD gaming PC

Today I just grab my Fractal shelf and build with Dirty an AMD gaming PC with the ryzen 7 3700X and a Sapphire Notro RX 5700XT Nitro+ on an MSI MEG X570 ACE. All this is cooled and supplied with components from Fractal – if so, then we do it as always also varietal. In addition, there are benchmarks, temperatures and the assessment of the [...]
