The Raijintek Morpheus is currently still the most popular and above all also the most potent air cooler for graphics cards, but the compatibility was somewhat behind the current graphics card generations from NVIDIA and AMD. I got myself a final version directly from Taiwan in advance, however, this cooler (as of yesterday morning) is also [...]

In the AiO water cooling category, Alphacool recently took first place in terms of cooling performance with its “Aurora HPE” series, partly thanks to the more expensive copper radiator. However, the “Core” series does not have this advantage, because a radiator made of the cheaper aluminum is used here again. We will test [...]
For once, I don’t have a picture gallery for today’s Sunday, but I do have a terrific pearl from the daily routine of a supplier of various cooling products, which also include fans. And no, if you think that the “poo-like” colorizing on the picture stands for a new model series from Noctua, I have to disappoint you [...]
The last AiO water cooler we tested here from EK was from the “Basic” series and came entirely without lighting. However, it is not possible to do without RGB completely, because the new “Nucleus” series brings RGB back to the foreground. In the following article, we will find out whether it is possible to deliver a good [...]
Towards the end of last year, we first had the 280mm variant of this AiO water cooler in review, and now the manufacturer asked me to also include the version with a 360mm radiator in the rankings. Recently, a decent overall package of cooling performance, workmanship and warranty length was put together, but now the CPU temperature is to be [...]
To be able to cover the higher TDP classes of processors in the future, I upgraded my testbench from a Ryzen 5 3600 to a Ryzen 9 3950X. However, so that the compact or budget coolers are not completely overtaxed, testing is done in three stages. This article serves as a reference and basis for future comparisons so that tested air and water [...]
A GeForce RTX 4090 FE is not only expensive, but also still highly sought-after. The original air cooler is almost oversized and as a buyer you hardly have a valid reason to disassemble and rebuild this collector’s item. Well, almost, because the weight and space requirements of this card are the other side of the coin, although the board [...]
Due to the high popularity and the many requests, we are following up today with a small follow-up on the Fractal Design North case. Many users have asked “does this work thermally with a large graphics card?” We got to the bottom of this question, installed a Radeon 6900XT without further ado and Fractal was even able to provide us [...]
Today’s article goes into detail about fan control software and a few important connection basics. The following three concrete topics will be the subject of today’s article: A small overview of various programs for fan control, a tutorial on, program FanControl and a tutorial on creating fan curves. This is a continuation of what Igor [...]
The Sharkoon Rev300 Case Review – A different design with plenty of space for a custom Water Cooling
Today is Christmas and we don’t spill the beans – we make a killing. Actually, there is only a boring case review with cheap hardware that everyone knows. Wait and see: Because you can always find true price-performance winners at Sharkoon, such as the Sharkoon Light² 200, the PureWriter RGB, the SGH50 and much more. And as I was [...]
At the beginning of the year, Cooler Master introduced a new series of AiO water coolers with the FLUX series, and we already had the 240mm radiator model in review. Now we would also like to have the 360mm variant tested here again, but there is also a first look at the performance of the soon to be released “30 Years Cooler Master” [...]
With the Seasonic MagFlow 120 mm, Seasonic wants to reorient the market a little bit. Simple, high-performance and above all RGB-free, and the most important feature is a magnetically clickable daisy chain without superfluous cable assembly. Lian Li, we are coming (now too)! Click & Run for even more fun? Of course, acceptance will show [...]
A good half year ago, we already had the normal variant of this cooler in review, and now another model in completely black coloring and a second fan follows. First, a question on my part: Should not “Zero Dark” actually be a completely white version of this cooler? We might not find the answer to that today, but at least I can test [...]
We really didn’t make it easy for ourselves with the test of the Corsair AF Elite Series AF140 Elite and even tested the white and the black fan several times. I have to state that the measured values do not match the data sheet on the homepage or the data printed on the packaging in any way, which had to influence our rating in the end. We [...]

After various render images of the new Morpheus 8069 GPU air cooler were leaked in the last few days due to rather unfortunate circumstances, which however do not officially come from Raijintek, but were picked up by a third party from an unprotected directory of the manufacturer’s server, I would like to turn the whole thing upside down a [...]
In the past, we have already tested coolers and peripherals from SilentiumPC and SPCGear, respectively, and most of the time they even performed well in terms of price/performance. With good reviews and awards under their belt, they have gradually achieved more and more success on the market, so that they are now venturing to expand into the [...]
Yes, it’s winter again and the next hot hardware is just around the corner. Admittedly, summer is still a long way off, but it’s still getting warmer every day because the wattage of the components is also increasing so immeasurably. For a PC owner or self-builder, the topics of waste heat, cooling and ambient temperature (also [...]
Cooler Master sends two new case fans onto the market with the unilluminated Mobius 120 and the illuminated counterpart Mobius 120P ARGB, which, together with the Mobius 120 OC not tested today, should give everything a good shake of the competitor products. However, the price is quite high at just under 25 euros for the shadow man and just under [...]
