Everybody can cool with air and honestly: the adrenaline rush when you take apart and rebuild a card that costs several thousand euros is not to be despised. But the basic idea behind the whole water action is actually quite simple. How much more clocks and thus also performance can be squeezed out of a Quadro RTX 6000 by the better cooling alone [...]

Roccat's Cain 200 AIMO is a wireless gaming mouse with RGB lighting. It is the top animal in the Cain family and thus one of the most expensive mice Roccat offers. It is available from the usual online retailers for around 90€, which puts it in the upper price range compared to other brands. Personally, I was particularly excited about the [...]
Having recently been fully immersed in a world of Cherry MX switches and ultralight mice, I was very excited about these two Roccat products. On the Vulcan keyboard because I had no experience with Roccat's own Titan Switches. And on the Cain, because I had already become so accustomed to my super light wired mouse. So I was curious what I [...]
I’ve been wrestling with myself for a long time about whether to publish the current state of this headset at all, but I just do it. For two reasons. First, you should also pay attention to things that you (e.g. by me) (as the then proud owner) and secondly, the current state also proves (apart from the hygienic state of emergency) that such [...]
RGB is everywhere today – fans, components, input devices, even toilet lids (no joke!) are already available with RGB lighting. In some respects, I can even understand the trend: the play of colours is usually pretty to look at and individually adaptable to your own preferences. Unfortunately, however, integration also makes many parts [...]
Smaller, lighter, cheaper and still better in many areas? Names are sound and smoke, at least for some vendors who, with cheaper product lines, only eat from the glory of days gone by. Klipsch's active boxes are by no means a bad cheap drop, but both the louse quality of the folding and the boards, as well as the annoying background noise [...]
The last generation of the AiO now sends Raijintek into the orcus and delights the bargain-hunting PC-Bastler with the EOS 360 RBW, which is also available as a 240 and which would actually be quite sufficient. But the customer still seems to like to have the longest, which is why it was possible to set off more longer models from the Orcus. A [...]
No, such capturing cards are unfortunately not cheap, certainly not at such resolutions. I had to experience this again painfully. But since I want to change my YT videos to 4K in perspective and are currently only waiting for a suitable camera setup with a suitable output (memory cards are only an emergency solution) I just start from behind. [...]
I took a guest article by Sascha Hochweber as an opportunity to ask our readers specifically about their own gaming behaviour and to include these surveys in the following articles. According to a recent survey of the only4gamers.de page, there were more than 2.5 billion active gamers worldwide in 2019. Although this also includes players on [...]
Normally, KFA2 positions itself with the cards of the respective performance classes rather in the most favorable range and thus shows some Pixel pharmacists the cold shoulder and where it can go long in the customer search, because many of these models have been among the absolute price/performance winners for years. But Asia is now ticking quite [...]
Of course, it would be pointless to take out the usual large speculum and nibble at it with relish, but in contrast to pure speculation and rumours, there are also unmistakable and tangible signs that indicate a significant increase in performance (and thus also a higher data rate and density). I’ve been asking around a bit with the board [...]
ADATA XPG first tries out a mechanical keyboard with original Cherry switches, does not need to adapt to software and wants to cover all preferences with MX Speed Silver, Red and Blue. Recipe for success or lukewarm broth?
In the summer of 2017, AMD introduced the GCN 5 alias “Vega” graphics cards, which, after some delay, were finally intended to knock Nvidia’s fast and economical Pascal cards off the throne. Despite the nearly 500 mm2 chip and a 2048-bit wide HBM2 memory interface, the attack failed miserably. The cards were very power-hungry and [...]
Actually, I don't let myself be blinded by hyped "secret tips" and wait for the initial euphoria before I throw my money out the window for another mediocre or even disappointing game. With A Plague Tale: Innocence, however, I was attracted to the underlying setting from the very beginning. The fact that it was also available at the [...]
Everyone now has one with air, so Corsair is finally following in his way. With the Corsair A500, however, you go straight to the full and pop a whopping 200 grams more than our reference (Noctua NH-U12A) on the parquet. Artificial, because it is a significantly larger double fan cooler with visibly more cooling surface and wide hips. So it will [...]
The fact that you can make very good products like Noctua's U-Series with the 120 fans is certainly always in it, but it is amazing how a relatively compact tower cooler from the same house can compete against the baroque competition of the cooling surface inflationary claim white. And since I will now test air coolers again, you need a kind [...]
The better is the good enemy, at least from the point of view of RGB Illuminati and rainbow addicts. Because Alphacool has also visually raised the polar bear with addressable LED. Although this pre-filled cooling is at first glance similar to a normal AiO solution, Alphacool, as a supplier of various water cooling components, has the advantage of [...]
Felt louse breeding as a worthwhile second income for housewives, beekeeping was yesterday.
To understand the meaning of it all, you should read my article "Radeon RX 5600 XT with new BIOS and stable RAM without Flash! AMD Limits and Benchmark". Because there I describe very precisely how AMD with the new BIOS actually presses the entire overclocking margin of the card into the factory settings in order to be able to offer the [...]
Today’s tutorial shows how to load the new BIOS of the respective Radeon RX 5600 XT in just a few steps without having to physically overwrite the BIOS on the card! The GPU-Z screenshot shows the initial situation with the old BIOS. If you don’t have a new BIOS, load the old one (can be extracted with GPU-Z for example) and simply set [...]
