With the Radeon Pro W7700, AMD is now closing the huge gap between the previously tested Radeon Pro W7800 and W7600, thereby completing its own portfolio of RDNA3 graphics cards for productive use. Even though this chip and the corresponding design as a gaming graphics card would place it very elegantly between a Radeon RX 7600 and the RX 7700XT [...]

The German company Nerdytec, known for the “Couchmaster” celebrated by many sofa gamers, is launching its first keyboard on the market with the Cykey. With solid workmanship, exciting features and support for the open-source QKM/VIA software, the company wants to shake up the controversial keyboard market. Read on to find out whether [...]
Geekom IT12 Mini-PC in the test – With the i7-12650H and plenty of connections through everyday life
After we recently tested the i9-13900H, probably the most powerful small computer with an Intel processor currently available from this manufacturer, things are getting a little more normal again today. You can find out in detail how the IT12 performs in the following test report. If you missed the article on the IT13, you can read it here: [...]
If you think I’m going to take another look at a monitor I’ve already tested, you’re not wrong. Visually, the KTC M27P20 Pro (M27P20P) looks extremely similar to the Cooler Master Tempest GP27U. You could almost call them identical twins. The built-in panel from AU-Optronics is also the same as the GP27U. The Cooler Master [...]
Do you even need an NVMe SSD with PCIe 5.0 like the Corsair MP700 Pro and if so, where is the pain threshold for the price? Does such a bolide bring any real added performance value and what is actually installed in detail? Nothing escapes my material tests in this regard and yes, the SSD really is ROHS-compliant. But you could have guessed that [...]
Over the last ten months, I have had the privilege of testing the GAMECHANGER gaming chair extensively. Privilege because I love my back and my backside and don’t normally let anyone or anything get close to me. And now? I’m more of a long-term person, so it was important to me to evaluate a premium product over a longer period of time [...]
With the Dark Base 701, BeQuiet! is launching a new edition of the Dark Base 700, which is intended to seamlessly follow on from the large Dark Base Pro 901 with a fresh look and radically changed airflow design. Read today’s test to find out what the 230-euro behemoth is capable of in practice. Now the small Dark Base is also being revised [...]
From time to time, I like to publish background stories about companies and important people, which are not easily found on the Internet, but which I have known for a long time and highly value. The reason is simple: while everyone knows and uses the products, few know who or what is behind such seemingly everyday things. Besides a lot of work [...]
AMD took its time with the Navi32, probably also for resource reasons, and now PowerColor even comes with an RX 7800XT Hellhound in a completely white dress – right down to the board and coils. The GeForce RTX 4070 is always firmly in view and of course poses with the 16 GB graphics memory. The cooler is huge, the power limit is ample and [...]
Short connection? Then you only need to own a Fritz!Box from AVM and operate it in Deutsche Telekom’s fiber optic network (FTTH). If you then call a mobile phone number and want to talk a little longer, you will lose relatively quickly. Or rather, after just two minutes and one second. Because that’s when the connection is lost and you [...]
And as soon as we had a small system with an i9 in the test, AMD’s counterpart immediately followed. Today, for once, in a shape other than a cuboid. Packaging and scope of delivery At least the box is square. Wrapped in a sash that can be pulled away to the side, with the included configuration marked on the back. Inside, several small foam [...]
Since I’ve been testing these small systems, an incredible amount has happened thanks to increasingly powerful processors from the notebook sector. The road from a passable second system to a fully-fledged desktop replacement without compromises was not as long as expected. So let’s take a look today at whether this mini PC is [...]
Today’s article is the result of several months of laboratory work, extensive measurement series, development work, and constant cross-checking. The matter of the 12-volt connectors is unfortunately so complex that I had to look for a new approach to complete the picture. And no, there isn’t THE one cause, but always a causal chain of [...]
“Yet, just another O11 clone!”, evil tongues will probably claim, and they are really not completely wrong with the claim. The 2-chamber design with glass panel at the front is extremely popular and NZXT sets an interesting accent with the angled fans. Whether the “Show-and-Shine” case can also shine in practice, you can [...]
Today we’ll take a look at a device that wavers between very good and strange in many places. Large build space, active electric heating for high internal temperatures and Klipper out of the box have piqued my interest. Again, there is a lot to look at, discuss and evaluate today, so quickly cleared as large a storage space as possible and [...]
It’s been a long time coming, but after a whole decade, Alan Wake has finally passed the torch to a worthy successor, since the remake doesn’t really cut the mustard. And now, drum roll please, he’s back in the saddle! Every newsroom is over the moon and singing the game’s praises. But to steer clear of the Alan Wake 2 hype [...]
We have already tested the somewhat larger Elite variant, and today we are going to review the PRO 5. In the following review, you will find out how it compares to its predecessors and top models from other manufacturers. And if you are interested in the slightly larger (and more expensive) cooler, you can also read the other review: Click here [...]
Of course, we still remember the Radeon HD 6850, which was also slimmed down by AFOX. This time, the diet hits the new Radeon HD 7850, a card that virtually offers itself in terms of performance and waste heat. The first sample of this new card contained a rather unusual surprise, which we already presented in detail last week in the article [...]
Today, I’m doing a self-experiment: Browsing and shopping at Temu, of course with a set budget and a detailed review of all products in mind, if they all arrive. You guys triggered me recently, and so the time finally came. Ordered on 10/15/2023 and delivered on 10/24/2023, so a delivery time of 9 days. That’s acceptable for now, even [...]
After more than 5 years, there is once again an update of the Dark Rock series and then also directly two models at the same time. Today, we will first take a look at the “ELITE” variant, the “PRO 5” will follow soon. The following test report will tell you how the new top model from this manufacturer compares. Packaging [...]
