Where do current workstation graphics cards from both manufacturers stand when it comes to design, construction, simulation, 3D visualization and creation? Has AMD been able to catch up or even overtake with the new lineup of Radeon Pro graphics cards or are Ada and Ampere still the measure of all things? I’ll try to find objective answers [...]

With the next refresh of the K70 – in this case the K70 MAX – Corsair introduces the brand new magnetic switches. Thanks to the adjustable trigger point, the MGX switches are supposed to achieve the perfect balance between fast response (gaming) and maximum precision (typing). You can read whether the “wonder switches” [...]
Another OLED monitor from LG wants to be tested. Most will already know the panel from the Corsair Xeneon Flex. The two share the genes. The WOLED panel comes from LG displays and measures 45 inches diagonally and is 800R curved. Unfortunately, the display only comes with a resolution of 3440 x 1440p at 240 Hz refresh rate. Personally, I would [...]
From time to time, I like to present interesting projects ranging from community careers to startups or life stories behind the scenes of a company. Today I’m going to give you a home story of a different kind, because I’m going to let Marc Gaser tell his life story and tale of woe himself. The story of and about Liquid Extasy as a [...]
The title has already betrayed it, today it goes times in a completely different direction. Not only thematically, but also locally. Out of the quiet test chamber, out into the wide world! Well, at least into the garden. Maybe you already noticed it in the topics of my last reviews, over the hot summer I try to avoid the reviews of coolers [...]
Today I’ll take a look at a monitor that is often recommended by YouTubers as a cheap entry-level gaming monitor. The monitor only costs about 110 Euros when new. I was able to buy the monitor for 75 euros (still with foil on it) almost new via classifieds. I myself don’t need the Samsung Full HD monitor – also known as [...]
Today Bruce takes on the nasty weather and makes sure everyone is back in full contact. US Engineering FTW…
Even 10 years ago, I was already taking apart graphics cards and looking for causes of anomalies. At that time, of course, I still wrote in “we” form, because the big editorial offices almost always demand the subordination of one’s own ego to the conformist mass of employees. Just in case anyone was wondering, that was the way [...]
The year is 2023, I’ve knocked over my energy drink again early in the morning, and technological progress has provided us with a wealth of groundbreaking inventions in the meantime, from self-driving cars to long-lasting cell phone batteries to 3D-printed pizzas. But now it’s time for you to focus on a completely unexpected product on [...]
AMD today announced two new professional graphics cards, the Radeon Pro W7600 and Radeon Pro W7500. Both cards are based on the new RDNA 3 architecture and offer a range of features that make them suitable for a variety of professional applications. AMD thus rounds off the product family at the bottom. A Radeon W7700 has not yet been colped [...]
Remnant 2 is another Souls game, and it actually does everything right that Souls games do well. It’s challenging, rewarding, and offers a variety of worlds to explore and battles to fight. But it’s also a game that will frustrate you from time to time. You’ll die, and die again, and die again. But when you finally manage to [...]
We have already tested several inexpensive in-ears from the Chinese manufacturer SoundPeats, and so far they have all scored with a decent price-performance ratio and rich bass. New models are tirelessly introduced to the market and with the Engine 4, enough new features have been added that I dared to take another look. To the manufacturer itself [...]
I admit, the NZXT Relay Gaming Headset was a bit of a technical challenge, so I had to do a bit of detective work while taking measurements. I will test the appropriate Relay SwitchMix later, along with the also available 2.1 system, because the basis of this small acoustic ecosystem is and remains the headset. And if that is no good, then you [...]
Since people keep asking: Today’s test will once again show in measurement series how to properly apply a purpose-built thermal paste on large GPUs. The selection of a suitable paste and the appropriate method determine success or failure. And I’m not just making this up as I go along, because much of what is shown here in a manual [...]
Product copying of major brand audio equipment in China is now a sad reflection of global challenges. In recent years, the copying and replication of major brand audio equipment by Chinese manufacturers has attracted worldwide attention and also a great deal of anger. This practice, also known as “cloning,” has drawn both highly [...]
