The H7 Elite is NZXT’s new ATX premium case and promises luxurious features in a classy guise. We will find out whether this is the case in today’s test. As is well known, everyone can tell a lot when the day is long. The H7 Elite is one of three versions launched on 5/25/2022. The other two are called H7 and H7 Flow, and the prices [...]

The newly launched NZXT F120 120 mm RGB case fan enters the upper-range fan market with a rather confidently chosen MSRP of 27.99 Euros and yet cleverly stays below the psychologically so important 30 Euros mark. The 140 mm version for 29.99 Euros still manages that, but at least the smaller fan is still below that. However, this price is quite an [...]
The LGA1700 socket, which Intel introduced for the 12th generation of their Core CPUs last November, is known to have one or two problems with bending hardware. For context, I recommend our other two posts if you haven’t read them already. But in short, the problem is that the clamping force of the ILM (Integrated Loading Mechanism) is [...]
Alphacool has given the Aurora Acryl GPX-A Eisblock a complete redesign, promising better flow and lower temperatures across the block. So why not test the 2022 version together with a Sapphire RX 6950XT Nitro+ Pure, which was already disassembled in the 3D scanner anyway? Of course, I don’t want to spoil anything, but the temperatures as [...]
Better late than never, or what was that? Yes, unfortunately I am late with today’s topic, because the launch of AMD’s FSR 2.0 was already on 12.05.2022. At that time I was traveling abroad on business and therefore could not do any tests. Probably many of you have already dealt with the topic on various YouTube channels or other sites [...]

I admit it, I’ve been putting off the topic of Wi-Fi 6 for ages. But in the meantime, in addition to the appropriate smartphones, I also own several clients that can use Wi-Fi 6, but are not allowed to, because my good old Fritz!Box 7590 does not allow this. And I have long considered whether I do not separate once between business and [...]

SK Hynix 16 Gbit M-Die is known to be the holy grail in terms of DDR5 overclocking, at least at time of writing. The prices for the fastest kits with clock rates in the XMP profile of over 6000 Mbps are still quite expensive. However, if you dare to work on the clock and timings of the RAM yourself anyway, cheaper kits with the same ICs are an [...]
With the three new cards presented today, the Radeon RX 6950 XT, RX 6750 XT and RX 6650 XT, AMD wants to orientate itself even further towards the performance top, but somehow also misses the signs of the times a little bit because of all the eagerness and exuberance. After all, we know that all manufacturers only boil with water, and if you put [...]
Qualified Vendor Lists, or QVL for short, are probably familiar to anyone who has looked for a suitable pairing of motherboard and RAM kit. Since RAM kits with an XMP profile are not covered by the official specifications of the CPU manufacturers (Intel or AMD), motherboard and RAM manufacturers test the compatibility between their products [...]

In today's workvlog I show you again a Mini ITX system, saved with a full custom watercooling in the smallest space and the complete installation history. And yes, in the tightest of spaces you also need very jointed fingers as well as a tiny bit of stamina and a lot of patience. And what else do you need? That's right: a suitable housing [...]

There have been several Black Editions or Extreme Editions at Intel in the past, but Grey Editions? This marks the strict exclusivity for the Chinese market, at least in the case of the i5-12490F CPU. The grey sheep in Intel’s Alder Lake product family is thus a real rarity in the western market, and that alone is reason enough for me to do [...]
