It’s clear to everyone that, for the most part, a laptop doesn’t come close to a desktop PC. This is particularly noticeable when you want to play games or use more powerful applications. Here you can clearly see that performance and quality are already limited. A gaming laptop can help, but even here there are severe limitations in [...]

Towards the end of last year, we raffled off a very early Christmas present together with Caseking, which found its lucky winner after some delivery problems. He was kind enough to share his own impressions with us, which we will of course not withhold from you. So here’s the corresponding reader test today, enjoy! Jonsbo N2 NAS enclosure in [...]
Deepcool is launching the new Morpheus case onto the market with a completely new concept. Deepcool confidently advertises a fully modular PC case that can be adapted to any situation from the ground up. This case really scored points with me, as it allows you to install either a single-chamber system or a dual-chamber system in the case. Will the [...]

Read our test to find out how the big brother performs in everyday use. When Fractal Design [...]
While the white edition of its predecessor saw the light of day as a limited edition, the Dark Base Pro 901 (and 701) will now be available to everyone in white. Reason enough to take another look at the machine. Normally, it makes little sense to test an already tested case again in a different color if hardly anything else about the product has [...]
With the CTE design, Thermaltake has tested a new approach to dissipate the waste heat from the components more efficiently. In the first iteration, however, this design led to problems with some GPU coolers, because heatpipes are little divas and are subject to the iron laws of physics. Thermaltake has now solved this problem with the E600 MX and [...]

Similar to urban planning, you also have the problem on the desk that there is not unlimited space available on the X and Y axes. In addition to living space, roads, infrastructure and perhaps even a park have to be built. The situation is similar on the desktop at home, because without a mouse, keyboard and monitor, you don’t have much fun [...]
With the latest addition to the popular Arcadia series, Raijintek aims to set new standards in the budget case sector.

Read on to find out how the Arcadia III performs in everyday use. In the [...]
So anyone who really believes that everything used to be cheaper is very much mistaken. Just compare salaries and prices! Computers are a luxury good. And gold-plated accessories are as old as the PC price list. But who am I telling? If you browse through yesterday’s advertisements today, it can make you feel really sick. But just before [...]
With the ARX 700 ARGB, Endorfy is trying to establish itself with a small but fine case in the mid-range segment. This mid-tower case is a sheet steel case with a glass side panel and power supply cover. At least 4 ARGB fans in 140 mm are included for 120 euros, which should provide plenty of airflow. This case had also appealed to me privately [...]

Read today’s test to find out what the 230-euro behemoth is capable of in practice. Now the small Dark Base is also being revised [...]
“Yet, just another O11 clone!”, evil tongues will probably claim, and they are really not completely wrong with the claim. The 2-chamber design with glass panel at the front is extremely popular and NZXT sets an interesting accent with the angled fans. Whether the “Show-and-Shine” case can also shine in practice, you can [...]
With the C1 mid-tower, the new manufacturer APNX enters the stage. The high-quality looking case comes with four pre-installed ARGB fans, a stable construction and a fresh design. Whether this is enough to hold its own in the highly competitive market, you can read in the review! Of course, Advanced Performance Nexus, APNX for short, is not [...]
With the QUBE 500, COOLER MASTER brings a high-quality modular case with compact dimensions and versatile design to the market. The case comes to the customer as a kit in individual parts and offers many interesting approaches. How the QUBE 500 performs in everyday use, you can read in the test! I have to admit that the concept of the QUBE 500 [...]
Half a year ago I had contact with Caseking regarding this case, but at that time it was simply not yet available in Germany. Until then, I was allowed to test the N1 extensively. The problem with the availability of the N2 is now solved, so we can finally take a look at it today! Here you can read the review of the mentioned N1: Packaging and [...]
After the sinfully expensive and feature-laden Dark Base Pro series, BeQuiet! now unleashes the latest iteration of the upper class with the Shadow Base 800 series. We take a look at the white luxury version with ARGB lighting and put it through its paces. Maybe less is more after all? And there is certainly a huge difference between making [...]
The Thermaltake Ceres 500 turned out to be my secret case star of the year because it combines great features with a fresh look and performs well in all aspects. With the Ceres 300, Thermaltake now sends a shrunken version with slightly slimmed down features and hits a range with the form factor that should fit perfectly for the majority of all [...]
