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 [...]
If it suddenly creaks under the backplate: Watch out for Mini-ITX, Socket AM4 and custom backplates!
The starting point of the misery was a mini-ITX build with custom water cooling. All of this is fully in line with the trend, and the fact that EKWB got it this time with the cooler used is just a coincidence. The manufacturer has included an extremely stable backplate in the scope of delivery, which is very praiseworthy in itself, and which is [...]
We have already discussed the topic of load peaks with the upcoming graphics cards including PCIe 5.0 as well as the new ATX 3.0 standard and Intel’s statements on this topic in detail several times. But since in the end no one really knows what to do with all these standards and theory in their own practice, my friend Aris (Dr. Aristeidis [...]

Graphics cards were in short supply, so of course you look for ways and means to somehow import such a rarity yourself. If you always wanted to be different, because you don’t only want to consume the German market’s standard mush, you’ll also find it in Asia, e.g. with such a Colorful iGame GeForce RTX 3050 8GB tested today. Of [...]
In the gaming tests I even got carried away with a certain euphoria, especially in terms of efficiency. Now the Ryzen 7 5800X3D has to prove what it is really capable of in normal applications of my workstation – aside for gaming. And this is exactly where the gray everyday life quickly catches up with you again. To say it up front: it [...]
To say it in advance: The Ryzen 7 5800X3D is AMD’s almost condescending gesture of nonchalance to make use of an Epyc chiplet (“Milan”) with 3D-V cache as a “secondary purpose”, pack it into a normal consumer CPU and “purely by chance” send Intel’s waffle toast in the form of the completely [...]
