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 [...]
In the field of power supply units (PSUs), attention has recently turned to Cybenetics, a renowned company known for its expertise in PSU certification. Their latest release, a series of new badges, was specifically designed to fulfill the critical role of validating PSU compatibility with the ATX v3.0 standard. As the market experiences [...]
Attention allergy sufferers, the following text may contain traces of lead and sarcasm! Once upon a time, in a country called China, engineers and economists asked the eternal question, “Should our solder be leaded or lead-free?” You might say that this was a question of almost Shakespearean proportions: “To solder or not to [...]
After we recently tested the Quersus ICOS, a chair explicitly marketed as an “office chair”, and found it to be good, SHARKOON now swoops in with the Office Pal C30 and shows us once again how price-performance works. You can read about the compromises that have to be made to reach the price of 229.90€ in the review. 229.90€ – [...]
Normally you don’t see many reviews of ATX cases from me, I actually feel quite comfortable in the literally small ITX niche. This time, however, a good opportunity arose when I was offered the latest case from Endorfy. I need to free up some space in my basement shelves and want to get rid of as much as possible in one fell swoop. Building [...]
Igor in danger: Unexpected spontaneous combustion of an Aerocool StrikeX ST and fiery excess | Retro
Let's quickly jump in again... The before and after show of the fireplace opening That you can warm up to features like a docking station is all a matter of opinion. By the way, the good piece has never been used, so it d... Collateral damage? It's amazing that the rest of the technology survived despite the excess liquid and the short circuit [...]
While the Tower 100 still lacked installation options for a powerful AIO and monster graphics cards like a 4090 or 7900XTX, the slightly grown Tower 200 now offers space for 280mm AIOs and 380mm GPUs. Read about the strengths and weaknesses of the stylish tower in the review. When I tested the Tower 500 a little over a year ago, I was quite taken [...]
Even if I can’t hold a candle to Alexander’s grandiose renovation of his basement, I was at least able to please a good friend and conjure up an equally fresh setup for his computer in the freshly moved apartment. Height-adjustable desk, matching monitor holder, high-quality chair and generous mouse pad as well as protective mat for [...]
ATX 3.0 and 1000 Watt for under 160 Euro? Another reason to let my friend Aris from Hardwarebusters have his say (and picture) on our site, because he not only tested this power supply intensively, but also officially certified it via his company Cybenetics. There you can also find the equipment and the test setup. Since it is surely interesting [...]
Streacom was founded in the Netherlands back in 2010 and has since focused on developing high-quality aluminum enclosures, especially in the area of small form factor and passive cooling. Besides the highly successful Streacom DA2, the company also offers a completely different type of case. As part of the “Open Benchtable Project” [...]
The be quiet! Dark Power 13 1000 W uses a high-end FSP platform that offers maximum efficiency, absolutely silent operation, and ATX v3.0 and PCIe 5.0 compatibility. We will test the large version today, because there is also the 750 watt variant and one with 850 watts besides the 1000 watt model. Already the 850 Watt is completely sufficient for [...]
In today’s workvlog, I’m once again presenting you with a themed build, this time aimed at elegance and sophistication. All you need is a dose of creativity and an inspiring idea. If you’ve been following my previous builds, you know that I’m always finding new ways and getting inspired by different sources like games or [...]
The king is dead, long live the king. Or the other way around: The findings of the last few months are finally taken seriously and the connector is modified, work is done on a new standardization and tests are carried out ad nauseam. The product is given a new name, although in the end it is only a further development that should have been [...]
Almost 12 years ago, EuP and ErP were on everyone’s doorstep, also in terms of power consumption in stand-by mode. That is why, as “Hilmar Brenninger”, I had more or less investigatively thrown myself into the turmoil and checked whether the current directives had actually arrived in the trade. And by the way: the Motherborads [...]
With the Dark Base Pro 901, BeQuiet! replaces the previous flagship Dark Base Pro 900. In order to not completely change the successful and very flexible DNA of the Dark Base series, mainly changes in detail were made besides the more modern look. Read our review to find out whether the noble case is convincing. Clever detail solutions have always [...]
Raijintek’s products have always been able to shine with a very good price-performance ratio in recent years. No matter if it was cases, cooling solutions or fans, the testers always agreed that you get a lot of product for your money. Whether this is also the case with the Paean C7, you can read in the review. You can tell at first glance [...]
We call ourselves Hardware Busters because one of our many missions is to debunk hardware-related myths. Today’s article and video are an excellent example of that! I got suspicious when I noticed an article on Tom’s Hardware titled: “User Reports 12VHPWR Connector Melting From the PSU Side (Updated)“. However, that looks [...]
Whenever the term “gaming chair” appears in a review, some of our readers immediately start ringing alarm bells. However, the well-equipped Quersus ICOS One is explicitly marketed as an “office chair” and we want to take a look at whether it can actually do “better” than its gaming cousins in this review. Can it [...]
Announced months ago and already shown at CES, the C750 Air from Thermaltake’s new CTE series finally arrived shortly before Computex. What the gigantic Airflow Case has to offer and what there is to consider, you can read in the review. CTE stands for Centralized Thermal Efficiency – a design that blows cold air into the case from the [...]
It was less than half a year ago when we last reviewed an ITX case from Fractal Design, and yet we already have another one. The Terra combines the elegant look with real wood from the “North” ATX cases with a small case that still has a trick up its sleeve. Click here for the article of the latest ITX case from Fractal Design: [...]
