While the Tower 100 still lacked installation options for a powerful AIO and monster graphics cards like a 4090 or 7900XTX, the slightly grown Tower 200 now offers space for 280mm AIOs and 380mm GPUs. Read about the strengths and weaknesses of the stylish tower in the review. When I tested the Tower 500 a little over a year ago, I was quite taken [...]
Streacom was founded in the Netherlands back in 2010 and has since focused on developing high-quality aluminum enclosures, especially in the area of small form factor and passive cooling.

With the Dark Base Pro 901, BeQuiet! replaces the previous flagship Dark Base Pro 900. In order to not completely change the successful and very flexible DNA of the Dark Base series, mainly changes in detail were made besides the more modern look. Read our review to find out whether the noble case is convincing. Clever detail solutions have always [...]
Raijintek’s products have always been able to shine with a very good price-performance ratio in recent years.

It was less than half a year ago when we last reviewed an ITX case from Fractal Design, and yet we already have another one. The Terra combines the elegant look with real wood from the “North” ATX cases with a small case that still has a trick up its sleeve. Click here for the article of the latest ITX case from Fractal Design: [...]

If you’re looking for a case to build your PC, you’re literally overwhelmed by offers. You could spend days researching, only to still not really know in the end: does the case fit in the end, or not? At the beginning there is always the question about the form factor: ATX, mATX or maybe mini ITX? The next question is: RGB optics yes [...]
After my 3D printer project with the ITX NAS was so popular, I also wanted to show an almost identical “ready to buy” alternative. After all, not everyone has access to a 3D printer or the time and inclination for a craft project. The Jonsbo N2 therefore caught my eye right away, as it simply offers a similar design with comparable [...]
Although my topic has been preached by the old hands in the PC field in forums for decades and is often the approach of any solution to performance problems, the same questions keep popping up from less experienced users. I hope to reach them with this article on our professional platform and maybe there is one or the other info for everyone else [...]

Due to the high popularity and the many requests, we are following up today with a small follow-up on the Fractal Design North case. Many users have asked “does this work thermally with a large graphics card?” We got to the bottom of this question, installed a Radeon 6900XT without further ado and Fractal was even able to provide us [...]
In today’s end-of-year workvlog, I’ll show you another very special build. Because even if the Lian Li o11 is now more of a mouthful than the tongue after a stair sprint to the 12th floor, it’s still not enough. Floor – with a little effort during installation, even a mass product becomes a real eye-catcher again. This [...]
Today is Christmas and we don’t spill the beans – we make a killing. Actually, there is only a boring case review with cheap hardware that everyone knows. Wait and see: Because you can always find true price-performance winners at Sharkoon, such as the Sharkoon Light² 200, the PureWriter RGB, the SGH50 and much more. And as I was [...]
For this review, I would have loved to organize a couple of exquisite old wing chairs and a bottle of the finest single malt, because the new FRACTAL DESIGN North gives off a real whisky lounge feeling. Whether the North can also convince functionally, or whether it is a blender, you can read in the test. After Fractal had already launched a few [...]
After more than 7 years, Fractal Design gives the Node 202 a new coat of paint and modernizes the case according to the changed requirements. We’ll take a closer look at what else has changed besides the new exterior and how the cooling looks in the following article.

In today’s workvlog I show you again a themed build, but this time the whole thing is kept a bit more simple and should animate something that you can create a real eye-catcher even without an elaborate custom loop water cooling. The only prerequisite you need is some creativity and a bright idea. Who knows my builds, also knows that I [...]
As a constant in the budget segment, Sharkoon always knows how to surprise with unexpectedly good quality and excellent value for money. In this test, we want to find out whether the compact TK5m can do the same. Can you expect anything at all at a price of around 65€ despite four pre-installed ARGB fans? The market for inexpensive cases is [...]
Yes, it’s winter again and the next hot hardware is just around the corner. Admittedly, summer is still a long way off, but it’s still getting warmer every day because the wattage of the components is also increasing so immeasurably.
