After we last looked at two Ultrawide monitors, we now return to the 16:9 format. The ASUS ROG Strix XG27AQ-W takes on the test marathon. Another ROG-branded gaming monitor as far as the eye can see. The monitor comes with a resolution of 2560 x [...]

Today is finally the day – loyal readers won’t be surprised by this –, for Intel’s last and fastest LGA1700 CPU we also have binning data for you once more. Thanks to MIFCOM, we were able to run almost 200 chips through our testing [...]
No, it is not a contradiction, but transparent plastic tube (usually PVC) is cheap to buy, but really expensive in follow-up costs. Who can, prefer to go for hard tubing or such nice things as EPDM or Teflon, but there are also situations where you [...]
Groundhog day, again and again. Today, I’m pushing up a classic review for you to enjoy on a cold winter Sunday, and it was a very interesting experiment. Already 12 years ago I had tested various things up to the adhesive cream for the third [...]
After a longer abstinence here, at least with the articles, I am now back with a small Intel ARC special. The cards have a niche existence, which is on the one hand due to the rather poor availability, especially of custom models, but also due to [...]
Last year, we already had an Ultrawide monitor in my test. And, because that was so nice, I thought, let’s do another one right away. BenQ sends the Mobiuz EX3415R into the race to acquire the customers’ favor. A 34 inch monitor with a [...]
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 [...]
The Raijintek Morpheus is currently still the most popular and above all also the most potent air cooler for graphics cards, but the compatibility was somewhat behind the current graphics card generations from NVIDIA and AMD. I got myself a final [...]
In keeping with today’s date, we continue with our Intel Raptor Lake silicon lottery data today, namely with the overclockable i7 and i5 SKUs. So whether your 13th Gen chip is a winner or a loser, you can find out today, among other things. At [...]
Today for the weekend we have some light food. A few weeks ago, I switched my testing software – for my monitor tests – from DisplayCal to Portrait Displays Calman Ultimate. I had written a dedicated article on this and afterwards there [...]
Core renovation, stripping, plastering and painting? No, you have not made a mistake in the website! Even if it seems at first glance richly offtopic, I would like to share a "small" heart project with you today. I turned a damp basement [...]
To be able to cover the higher TDP classes of processors in the future, I upgraded my testbench from a Ryzen 5 3600 to a Ryzen 9 3950X. However, so that the compact or budget coolers are not completely overtaxed, testing is done in three stages [...]
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 [...]
Today’s article goes into detail about fan control software and a few important connection basics. The following three concrete topics will be the subject of today’s article: A small overview of various programs for fan control, a [...]
The Sharkoon Rev300 Case Review – A different design with plenty of space for a custom Water Cooling
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 [...]
Just in time for Christmas we have something special for you today. With the help of MIFCOM, we were allowed to bin a statistically not insignificant amount of CPUs (over 500 in total) and today we have the evaluation for you to browse through [...]
Does it really always have to be the fastest data medium on paper and what do older SATA devices in the form of a 2.5″ SSD or a 3.5″ hard drive perform? Do we really need the latest product pushed on us by marketing, or can it be a few [...]
You probably remember my Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro headset, which simply destroyed itself in storage completely without use and which I had as article published last week. Being a sustainable person, I fixed the part today at my expense after [...]
In the meantime, I have become a convinced Ultrawide gamer myself. I’m even no longer so prejudiced against the topic of Curved. Therefore, the ASUS ROG Strix XG349C fits quite well into my test program. I can understand that Ultrawide and [...]
AMD launch was yesterday! Today’s topic is HDR (High Dynamic Range). Monitors with corresponding hardware in the form of Full Array Local Dimming (FALD) in combination with an IPS or VA panel have been around for a long time, but they are [...]
There are always many inconsistencies and ignorance around the voltage converters of a graphics card and the associated components, as well as the consequences in practical use. Annoying “coil beeping” is only one facet, which is not [...]

The 12VHPWR adapter for the GeForce RTX 4090 is unfortunately already a kind of running gag and so the topic is meanwhile beaten by all more or less well-informed media. A little unemotional reappraisal would certainly not be a bad idea to calm [...]
Since many users and especially YouTubers as well as twitchers still take the values of tools like the MSI Afterburner or AMD’s Radeon software for the power consumption of their graphics card at face value, I have to add something. The vast [...]
Yes, NZXT now also has monitors in its own product portfolio, and we’ll take a close look at one of them today. It is the 24.5″ Full HD NZXT Canvas. It comes with an IPS panel and a refresh rate of 240 Hz. This also makes it clear which [...]
