Intel’s Alder Lake CPUs run hot, very hot. A few weeks ago, Igor had already identified the bending of the CPU and motherboard due to the LGA1700 socket as a potential cause for this. Today I’ll show you a simple modification that can gain up to 5 °C in CPU core temperatures, and it almost couldn’t be simpler. Thanks (again) to [...]

The Fractal Prisma AL-12 PWM ARGB is obviously underestimated as a 120 mm case fan, because we got several requests from the community to test this model in more detail. Most reviews of the cooler that we could find at all were richly vacuous and tended to come from the “laying on hands” and “finding nice” category. That [...]
Cooling issues with Intel’s Alder Lake – Problems with the LGA-1700 socket and a possible workaround
Badly fitting coolers, too low performance with actually good waterblocks and bent CPUs – meanwhile not only the feedback of the readers is piling up, but also very similar reports from the board partners, cooler manufacturers and system integrators. Based on my own experiences, I went in search of clues and first tried to sort out [...]

Good CPU cooling has always been important, but with Intel’s new, very heat-sensitive Alder Lake CPUs even more so. Especially if you turn the clock dial yourself, a few degrees Celsius more or less can mean several hundred megahertz more or less stable clock speed in return. All the more important is a good cooler with the right contact [...]

A speed band like an XXL braces, paired with a lot of pressure and throughput that does not break away even on the thickest radiator – the Alphacool Rise Aurora 140 mm thus recommends itself as a real radiator fan. The performance is more than restrained, it’s downright brute. Today’s test will have to clarify whether and with [...]

I had already disassembled my new AOC Agon AG353UCG monitor the other day in search of the cause of the unpleasant background noise, where I then encountered the G-Sync Ultimate module with its massive heat sink. Since running it passively without a fan caused it to overheat and shut down, modifying the cooling solution is on the agenda today so [...]

We already explained that the hardness of pads is enormously important in the practical article “Rescuing a Gainward RTX 2080 Ti Phoenix GS – Replacing thermal pads correctly“. There I refer to the value defined as Shore A, which is based on a standardized measurement procedure. However, the fact is that there are different Shore [...]
I’m always amazed at how much has and is happening in the case fan field lately. With the Scythe Kaze Flex 120 ARGB one sends nowmahe also in this country an illuminated bolide into the race, which is to appear emphatic and determined, however not too loudly. The fact that it also illuminates the waste heat in a nice colourful way is a nice [...]
What does an animal do when it finds itself cornered? It bites wildly. And a larger company? It secures the supposed silverware, initiates a wave of warnings and lawsuits in order to be able to derive the greatest possible benefit from (still) valid patents. We’ll see exactly how and against whom the company is taking action (including an [...]
