Meanwhile, besides the already extensively tested reference cards of AMD’s RX-6000 series, there are also various board partner cards (not) for sale, of which two of these coveted specimens are already in the lab for at least one public test. The continued unavailability is all the more [...]

Overview and requirements You know what that’s like? In and around your PC there are dozens of hard disks, on each one there are different files, you never find anything and space is always limited anyway. Now, you could just buy a ready-made NAS from, for example Synology or Qnap, but [...]
Barely half a year after I tested the EK-AIO 240 D-RGB, the EK-AIO Elite has been added. According to EK Waterblocks, the regular EK-AIO became one of the best-selling articles after a short time, so that the company would like to expand its own assortment a little more. The design has been largely [...]
Even though AMD has solved the determination of Tjunction (“hotspot temperature”) differently with the new Radeon graphics cards (Navi21) and measures and calculates much more widely, it is precisely this temperature that is the linchpin for telemetry. This in turn means that the [...]
Yeah, we did it again, and better this time. Especially since our forum member Gurdi probably won one of the main prizes in the silicone lottery, as his RX 6800 in reference design shows very impressively what can be done if you had a lucky hand with the order button. I can spoil it in advance [...]
Would you like a little more or a little less? The overclocking limit of the Radeon RX 6800 XT isn’t particularly large, so the cheaper RX 6800 already looks much more interesting. But you won’t be able to pull out any trees here either, because AMD is now following the example of [...]
Without wanting to spoil everyone’s joy with a hasty spoiler in the first sentence: AMD is also back in GPUs. And how! Nevertheless, despite all the euphoria about the enormous performance boost, one must remain fair and consider the entire pixel cosmos: performance (rasterization, DXR [...]
I have already photographed the Radeon RX 68o0XT in part 1, now it’s the turn of the smaller sister, which might even be number one in demand. The price is hot, but still secret. So let’s unpack what aunt Lisa sent me as a second DLC, because it’s worth it again. And those who [...]
The tension is naturally at the stop, there is not much missing before the bullet snaps off. Today there is a first twitch, where I can give you some data and of course show you what I am already allowed to show in my own pictures: superficialities and the outfit on light metal, plastic and [...]
The Polish company COOLING.PL with its SilentiumPC / SPCGear brands is perhaps best known here in Germany for its ready-made systems or the ZackZack offers from Alternate. Why the name does not ring a bell directly can be partly answered by the company philosophy: ” No aggressive marketing [...]
Currently, there are many patches, new BIOS versions and various minor teething troubles with selected motherboard and CPU configurations, for example regarding the maximum achievable fabric clock rate. Unfortunately, most people quickly forget about a problem that could disturb the new Holy [...]
If you take a look at the German charts – the CPU coolers of course – then the coolers of the manufacturer Scythe with beQuiet are jostling for the top places. With 18 years of experience in the field of passive and silent cooling, the Tokyo-based company, including a branch in Germany [...]
Of course, you’ll be amazed if, for example, three supposedly identical cards from one manufacturer have completely different temperatures or fan speeds and this is then reflected very similarly in the reviews of colleagues, which are supposedly contradictory. No, it’s not that the [...]
Since the other two AMD CPUs have arrived and I was able to get a replacement CPU for the Ryzen 9 5900X (and buy it), I have revised the whole launch article and added the missing entries. This would give us the quartet of Ryzen 5 5600X, , Ryzen 7 5800X, Ryzen 9 5900X and Ryzen 9 5950X now complete [...]
Need For Speed (NFS) looks back on 25 years of life and suffering, which couldn’t have been more varied. And since it is very trendy to simply revive old games at a reasonable price instead of creating something new, EA has also reached into the moth box a little bit. But instead of rehashing [...]
Currently I was able to test two of the new Ryzen CPUs with Zen3 core, which could not be more different. On the one hand, there is the Ryzen 9 5900X with 12 cores (24 threads) as the new, two-largest miracle product of the upper class, and on the other hand, there is the Ryzen 5 5600X with 6 cores [...]
The idea of testing power supplies not only synthetically on the chroma, but simply once in the usual setting of a possible user, is actually not even that absurd, but usually fails because of the amount of test objects. And where do you get these power supplies after all? From the manufacturer [...]
Deepcool, or their own gaming brand Gamer Storm, is perhaps better known for their cases with integrated AiO water cooling or eye-catchers like the Quadstellar, less for individual cooling solutions. But already last year they started their attack on the radiator best-lists with a series of water [...]
For the launch of the board partner designs of the smaller ampere cards with the GA 104 I have today the MSI RTX 3070 Gaming X Trio 8GB at my disposal, which MSI also offers with a RRP of 559 Euro incl. VAT. prices. But what the trade will then really approve of will probably also depend on the [...]
A good 5 years ago, the fourth revision of the Double Data Rate memory has become the standard for the broad mass of PCs, and with first information about the market introduction of DDR5 next year, the DDR4 standard will probably soon reach the end of its life cycle again. The production techniques [...]
