All good things are four, the rest of the vendors have unfortunately either refused with their products or unfortunately could not deliver. This is annoying in itself, but it cannot be changed. In addition, two of the prototypes sent to me never made it on the market after the test. Here, the two sides have always treated each other fairly. The [...]
Today's tip is quite serious, because you can collect plus points with it. What you have to keep in mind, however, I tell you in a small practice video, because it shows and explains itself faster than you could describe it in many words awkwardly.
What lasts for a long time must probably just be good. After a long wait, the time has finally come and the Aqua Computer kryographics NEXT 2080 Ti, announced at the end of 2018, completed my test run at the weekend and passed with flying colours. Without wanting to spoil: the patience was really worth it! Even if a few trivialities still signal a [...]
With the Watercool Heatkiller IV for RTX 2080 Ti I would like to introduce the third fullcover water block in detail, which has to face my stress test honestly. The fact that the test sample only came now is mainly due to the high demand and the fact that the parts were always sold out as a result. But at some point almost every part ends up here [...]
In my two articles "GeForce RTX 2080 Ti – Why water cooling is more important than manual overclocking and this brings very little" and especially "Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Founders Edition water-cooled? Forget it, here's the much faster alternative!" I've already discussed in great detail the cooling problem and the [...]
In my two articles "GeForce RTX 2080 Ti – Why water cooling is more important than manual overclocking and this brings very little" and especially "Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Founders Edition water-cooled? Forget it, here's the much faster alternative!" I've already detailed the cooling problem and the advantages of a [...]
Two very unequal sisters The fact that the Founders Edition of Nvidia's GeForce RTX 2080 Ti would have particularly good chips is not only an urban legend, but complete nonsense. Clock-adjusted and provided with the same BIOS, e.g. the board of my press sample from Nvidia water-cooled also no better than e.g. the KFA2/Galax RTX 2080 Ti OC [...]
I have always wondered (and in the end also annoyed) why the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti behaves so divertily unwilling when manually overclocking and why ultimately the Founders edition, if you really cool it down, at the same time as your Power Target the limit of what makes sense. Squinting at the card with the highest Power Target ex works and the [...]
So AMD did! Not only that the Threadripper 2 has also been granted the new Zen+ This, as we already find with the Ryzen 2700X and other models of this series, no, one also occupies all four possible places in one of the two models tested today. instead of two, the Ryzen Threadripper 2990 WX elegantly (and almost with a casual gesture from [...]
When it comes to storms, then most of the time DHL comes. So also with us and suddenly there were two relatively large and heavy boxes. Let's pack it on and off!
Just in time for the start of the hot days, I had also considered how we could expand our test methods or how to expand our test methods. further expand and refine. This now also includes our new, modular water cooling measuring station, which is often called "Igor's paddling pool" in the laboratory, because in the end you never know [...]
Once is always the first time. And so, in the end, Alphacool managed to bring a solid fullcover water cooling block to the market. What lasts for a long time will be good? That is exactly what we want to test today. Of course, there is also how to get started... Test system and measurement methods We have already described the test system and the [...]
With the Orcus 240, Raijintek leaves the paths of the usual pump positioning, which has now really been trampled out, which also provided food for various, but quite trolly patent attorneys. Not on the radiator, not in the... Exploring the maximum TDP upper limit Now, of course, you could go down the path of least resistance and interpret the test [...]
Exactly this question we answer today and - without spoiling further - also show that even with an all-in-one compact cooling over 400 watts of waste heat, you can still master it acceptable if you only use a more functional radiator... Introduction AMD believes it can easily get over the summer day with the small 120mm radiator of its AiO (Vega [...]
The original cooling of the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti during the Bechmarks and analyses for our last week's launch article Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 11GB really didn't blow us off. Yes, she ends up doing what she s... Overclocking and stability tests We were amazed that we were able to reach the limit of 2.1 GHz. Whether our sample was a [...]
Since we want to test as soon as possible how such a solution behaves compared to closed compact water cooling, we simply reconstructed and assembled the Alphacool Eiswolf GPX-Pro 120 AiO ourselves, because the used... Easy conversion - if you know how to do it Alphacool provides an assembly instruction in the form of a leaflet, which describes [...]
