Part 1 of my series with interior views and material analyses of commercially available radiators for PC water cooling starts on Monday. I’m leaving out the AiO compact water coolers for now, but I’m still planning something in this regard. But I’ll come back to that later. On Monday, I have already worked through the first [...]

We recently reported that malware was found in certain revisions of systems from the manufacturer Acemagic. As we had also tested these mini PCs and they were connected to my network, the matter was of course even more explosive. If you want to read the whole thing again, you can find the original article here: And even though I couldn’t [...]
As David Hollingworth from Cyber Daily announced, the game developer Epic Games was probably hacked by the ram software group Mogilevich. Epic Games initially refused to comment, even in response to requests from other websites, and kept a rather low profile. But what had actually happened? The young ram software group Mogilevich (Russian: Mogila [...]
Micron Technology recently announced that it has started mass production of its High Bandwidth Memory 3E (HBM3E). Micron’s 24 GB 8H HBM3E will become a component of the NVIDIA H200 Tensor Core GPUs. The NVIDIA H200 series with Micron’s HBM3E is scheduled to ship in the second quarter. According to Micron, this HBM3e memory will consume [...]
At this year’s MWC, the manufacturer Lenovo presented its latest generation of ThinkPad and ThinkBook laptops. There are some interesting design ideas about how these devices should look, but also some new features that should improve the user experience. Lenovo’s latest ThinkBook laptop is said to have a 17.3-inch micro LED [...]
At the World Government Summit, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang broke with an old tradition where young people are advised by technology CEOs to learn programming at all costs. He said that even if AI is still at an early stage, it is better to leave it to them and it is no longer a vital skill. Young people should rather focus on valuable skills such as [...]
Laptops need more and more power to perform more intensive tasks. Especially when you’re on the go to get your work done, it can sometimes get very heavy and tiring. Thanks to generative AI and hybrid work environments, such tasks can be handled better and better and with NVIDIA’s new 500 and 1000 RTX laptop GPUs, it should get even [...]
Modders have once again set about modifying the older generation GeForce RTX 2080 graphics card from NVIDIA. This graphics card was originally released with 8GB of VRAM, but the modders have successfully upgraded it to 16GB. I have also linked a video at the end. The GeForce RTX 2080 was originally introduced by NVIDIA in 2018 based on the Turing [...]
You can’t leak something that’s already available and you can’t test something that can’t be obtained at short notice. So my explicit thanks go to PCGH, who kindly made their double bunny available to me, as my pulsed graphics hopper was once again stuck in customs. And my weekend goes to the nitro-soaked, golden substitute [...]
As part of the IFS event, Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger announced that the company intends to enter the “customer chip” business in the future. Every customer is to be served, including the competitor AMD. This is reported by our colleagues at Tom’s Hardware USA. The market for customized chips is therefore becoming increasingly [...]
Google’s new AI model Gemma was recently unveiled. So far, so exciting. However, NIVIDIA announced that it had worked with Google to optimize its AI model for NVIDIA GPUs. And that will be exciting. With Google Gemma, a new AI model was presented, which is a state-of-the-art, lightweight open language model, including models with 2 and 7 [...]
The worldwide distribution of so-called consumer-oriented GPUs, also known as gaming GPUs, is very high. These GPUs are not only easily accessible, but also much cheaper compared to alternatives such as workstation GPUs. These GPUs are more suitable for individuals to work with, also in terms of price. Another neglected aspect of such GPUs is [...]
The Clearwater Forest CPUs are expected to be launched on the market in mid-2024 as the successor to the Sierra Forest Xeon chips. Both chips have one thing in common: the use of E-cores instead of P-cores. The E-cores used in the Sierra Forest chips are codenamed Sierra Glen and are modified versions of the Crestmont core architecture. The [...]
The Zen 5 CPU architecture will be a big step for AMD in 2024 as it will include several lines of CPU families including Granite Ridge “Ryzen Desktop”, Strix Point “Ryzen Mobile” and Torino “EPYC Server”. All of these CPU families will play an important role and it looks like these chips will enter TSMC [...]
Against excessive spam in the forum – blocking of mail providers, IP number ranges and country codes
You will no doubt have noticed that there have been an increasing number of attacks on the integrity of our forum and website in recent days. But what you can see publicly is unfortunately only the tiny tip of a big fat iceberg that is not only being pushed by the usual spammers but also by the cold warriors of redirected links.

And yes, it looks like various retailers have already started preparing for the upcoming launch by listing and pricing the CPU in their official stores. One of the retail price lists for the Intel Core i9-14900KS CPU [...]
Supercomputers have taken on a significant role in today’s world as the world increasingly moves towards AI developments. Integrating this technology into consumer applications requires far more than just ‘brain power’. This is where data centers like Eos come into play, providing the computing power needed to achieve the desired [...]
Apparently, AMD is not willing to wait for the successful implementation of the next generation RDNA 4 GPU in Linux. The company has recently released new patches that provide initial support for the architecture’s PSP (Platform Security Processor). PSP, which stands for “Platform Security Processor”, is a special security chip [...]
AMD’s Anti-Lag technology is AMD’s answer to NVIDIA’s Reflex. Both technologies aim to reduce input lag and improve system latency. These features are especially important when playing games with frame generation technologies such as AMD FSR 3 and NVIDIA DLSS 3. AMD’s solution offers easy activation in supported games as [...]
As we have tested various small systems from the AceMagic brand, among others, and have also included them in our “Mini-PC” category, there is unfortunately no way around today’s rather unpleasant report. Recently, several sites reported that viruses or malware were found on various mini PCs from AceMagic. And not [...]
