Many trust the manufacturer's specifications in terms of accuracy when it comes to flow measurements for their own custom loop, but without being able to verify it in any way. If there is any information on accuracy, upper and lower limits or the measuring methods. Since I can now take fairly reliable measurements with an ultrasonic measuring [...]

I am continuing my little retrospective today and we see once again that everything can still be increased!
The Start is the Chieftec FI-01W ("Flyer"), into which I installed a rather fast HTPC in 2012.
The part has already irritated me, if only because of the size, which should have been called small. Well, the Corsair One is completely custom loop, but here I don't have the Frickelei with the watered graphics card. On a footprint of just under 19 x 19 cm and a height of just under 39 cm, the H1 from NZXT is quite compact. In addition, there [...]
Does anyone remember Palit's GTX 1550 Ti KalmX? I still had this card in the test for Tom's hardware at the time and the conclusion was rather mixed, because the card did not manage to survive even without any housing ventilation. The new GTX 1650 KalmX from Palit , I can spoil it before, manages this feat quite, albeit only in the second [...]
First of all, of course, you have to ask yourself how much money you really want to spend on in-ears, whether you are more brand-savvy, or like to experiment. For a street price of 99 euros for the CX 350BT and approx. 68 Euro for the CX 150BT you don't get too high, but you also have to be satisfied with the basics. The question arises: how [...]
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 [...]
Sometimes the number of reviews varies noticeably, but this is not because I might want to write something or have my face tanned by the video lamps. No, it is the work "besides" that nobody sees, but which is necessary for the creation of many articles and if it is basic study on the subject. Because you should only write about things [...]
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 [...]
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. [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
I deliberately did not participate in the cross-media BIOS discussion of the last few days, because the speculations and data that have become public are actually only the tip of a bigger iceberg and the potential problem lies much deeper. Therefore I want to collect the facts here and now and also only after the launch, which give a quite complex [...]
