The Alpenföhn Wing Boost 3 is so different that I exceptionally deviate from my principle to present and test only recommendable products with real added value, because you can’t get a benefit from things you should better not buy. But I really have to make an exception here, because this fan is so off the rails that I’m sure [...]

With the KFA2 GeForce RTX 3070 Ti SG (One Click OC), where the SG stands for Serious Gamer, KFA2 offers an amped graphics card that is subject to LHR restrictions and is rather unsuitable for mining Etherum. That’s probably the reason for the abbreviation SG, which verbally excludes the sideline at least with this special cryptocurrency, but [...]
Palit goes its own way with the new Palit RTX 3080 Ti GameRock 12GB in terms of looks. Whether the RGB disco lighting on the front, which is based on an ice shell (crystal design), is really to everyone’s liking, remains to be seen. But it’s a very eye-catching design that polarizes. That in itself is a right to exist. The only [...]
You can love it or hate it, but NfS Underground 2 was and is a milestone of the Need for Speed series. And as original CD version current unfortunately no longer playable. But there is a remedy, because various packs have solved this problem elegantly. Today’s weekend article is meant to be a little encouragement for you to maybe dig out the [...]
The be quiet! Silent Wings 3 are now almost 5 years on the market, so time to test this case fan. No RGB or other gamer ornaments, but a decent motor, a decent decoupling of the mounting – various awards from colleagues are reason enough to test this model more thoroughly before its possible replacement. After all, we also want to feed our [...]
Intel’s new Rocket Lake CPU generation is known to have brought many changes, including to the memory controller. With the new “Gearing” , much higher clock rates can now be achieved than ever before. Accordingly, the focus of the system memory also changes, so that IC types with particularly high clock potential are especially [...]
Since I am asked again and again which programs I use for the collection and analysis of my benchmark data and I also attach great importance to transparency, I have now sat down again and completely rewritten an article that I wrote in 2016, so already 5 years ago for Tom’s Hardware. Because not only has much changed for the better in terms [...]
Quite a while ago, on the occasion of my 3D printer beginner guide, I also gave a little buying advice with various recommendable models. I still consider the machines from Prusa Research to be the best that an ambitious hobby plastic melter can buy. Print quality, support, and most importantly reliability are outstanding…at a price. But [...]
With the Sound Blaster GC7, Creative is primarily targeting streamers and gamers whose focus is on combining the best possible immersion with easy and convenient communication. So it’s more of an acoustic two-way street rather than a tonal one-way street for sound-loving nitpickers. I am fair enough to consider this principle and also the [...]
The current Uni Fan SL120 RGB from Lian Li have triggered a certain hype in the community thanks to the used daisy chain, so that we were asked again and again for a review. However, if Caseking hadn’t provided us with the test samples upon request in an uncomplicated manner, I would have bought them, because, as always, the [...]
Except for a recent announcement and a first launch, it has been very quiet around AMD’s Radeon Pro portfolio of professional workstations for quite some time, which also rely on certified drivers and ECC-RAM, because especially in the professional environment such standards have to be met. While NVIDIA has been left almost without a fight [...]
With the generously dimensioned 7000 series, Corsair brings two full-tower cases with high-end requirements to the market. In this article, I want to put the feature-oriented Airflow version through its paces and find out if the 20kg Behemoth lives up to its claims. An all-in-one compact water cooling system can be installed by anyone, there is [...]
Patriot SUPERSONIC RAGE PRIME 1 TB Review – Small USB stick with SSD qualities in writing OR reading
Patriot has once again made it exciting and even issued an extra NDA for this SUPERSONIC RAGE PRIME 1TB USB 3.2 stick. I must also preface this by saying that I had to do this test without a communicated MSRP, which might put some things into perspective later on. But I was really fascinated by this stick in many parts of this test, because it [...]

Finally a manufacturer has taken pity on itself to offer the SKILLER SGS2 Jr, a stable gaming chair for the target group between 6 and 15 years, which is on the one hand robust and on the other hand pleasantly stands out from all the unicorn, pirate and Mickey mouse chairs. Visually and above all ergonomically, this is a real gaming chair for the [...]
Who doesn’t know the ugly moment when you think you’ve almost finished the Windows setup and then suddenly the new machine gets stuck? You have partitioned the SSD accordingly, defined the partition for the installation, put everything on it, the setup starts the services, thinks to have prepared everything and then after the next, due [...]
For many years now, the maker scene, i.e. the hobbyist crafting of primarily electronic or information technology applications, has been enjoying lively growth. Projects in optoelectronics are particularly popular, as you get direct visible feedback on your work performance. Furthermore, one could use the term eye-candy as a psychological [...]
Reader requests are of course our command and so today we have a big comparison test with 6 popular 140mm case fans. And yes, fans are a dime a dozen, but in the end, which fan fits which system and which budget? Is a model suitable as a case fan and how does it really perform on different radiators? What about the real speed range, how high is [...]
After the last article about system latency (NVIDIA Reflex & Boost vs. Radeon Boost and ZERO vs. AMD Anti-Lag), we should urgently discuss a few things about testing. So today we’re going to take a look at NVIDIA LDAT in terms of the USB ports it uses. For this I tested two different possibilities regarding the use of LDAT. The AMD [...]
With the new Prime series, Steelseries wants to offer performance-focused peripherals that have (once again) been developed together with eSports professionals. The lack of flashy lighting, visual bells and whistles, and the otherwise rather simple design will certainly appeal to normal gamers as well. What the new mouse can do is revealed in the [...]
