It was long overdue, but is now finally official. In revision 2.01 of the ATX version 3.0 (Multi Rail Desktop Platform Power Supply) from February 2023, Intel has finally had the design of the contacts specified. This was preceded by months of investigations and tests, which have now also been completed. But it also proves that I was right with [...]

What’s next week, where I’ll continue to work ahead even on the weekend? Quite a lot! By popular demand, we will start with the Sapphire RX 7900XT Pulse, which I have not only tested extensively, but which we (Igor’s magnetic fingers!) are allowed to keep and raffle off in the community. I would like to thank Sapphire in advance [...]
Sometimes unusual situations require unusual solutions. In the circle of relatives there was a momentous accident. A glass of a certain brand of cola had tipped over and the broth ran straight from the desk into the perforated PC case. Igor’s LAB rushed to the rescue and tried to save what could be saved. When I receive calls for help from [...]
Today we want to find out what is really in the two extremely expensive pastes and what philosophy is behind the respective mixture. And to spoil it a bit in advance: The biggest difference here is really only the color. Chic baby blue in the tube against a nice baby pink from the can and two prices reminiscent of certain products with the gold [...]
First of all, I want to start this by saying that today’s article comes from the bottom of my nerd heart, out of love for hardware and overclocking and for having a fair competition and thus can not necessarily represent the opinion of all the editors, as not everyone is so intensively involved in it. It may not seem like anything worth writing [...]
The GeForce RTX 4090 is already very expensive as such, but there are also considerable price differences between the respective models and manufacturers, so it is definitely worth looking twice financially. The KFA2 GeForce RTX 4090 SG 24GB (1-Click-OC) is one such candidate, whose clever positioning might only be recognized at second glance. At [...]
Today I am testing the fourth and for now last water block for NVIDIA’s top model with the Watercool Heatkiller V Pro on the GeForce RTX 4090 FE. And I can spoil it in advance: all four coolers are very close to each other and the actual differences are only in the appearance and in some areas in the temperature, depending on the block [...]
When the children grow up, you can still use the bathroom stool quite smart in your own store. With this, we start the Sunday relaxed and sustainable and enjoy the rest. So please keep scrolling!
Even though I’m not the first to take a closer look at this – let’s call it “slightly different” – monitor with today’s article on the Corsair Xeneon Flex 45WQHD240 OLED (that’s a mouthful), it’s going to go into a bit more detail today compared to most other reviews. What can already be [...]
Today we’re taking a look at the MSI Vigor GK71 with the new Sonic Blue Switches. The smooth clicky switches are the result of a collaboration between Kailh and MSI and position themselves in a rather understudied niche with short travel and low resistance, but allow for unexpectedly fast typing. Despite good equipment and interesting [...]
The saying “You can shove it!” is not new. But what does that have to do with proper power supplies? However, the new Corsair RMx Shift series now brings with it innovation that has it all: a DC connector panel positioned on the side. According to the brand, this provides a huge boost to cable management (well, it’s supposed to) [...]
After we recently tested the current AMD flagship from Beelink, we now have the counterpart from Intel. With a power-saving “BigLittle” architecture, i.e. a mixture of performance and efficiency cores, as well as Xe graphics and DDR5, it goes into battle against the currently fastest mini-PC in our tests. The following article will [...]
Sure, the title sounds lurid at first, but it actually contains everything that really characterized this review of the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D, because this is where a highly efficient and in many areas really extremely fast CPU meets smaller, self-imposed hurdles. This may sound more dramatic at first than it really is in the end, and it [...]
With the update KB5022913, Microsoft has once again angered the professional users who had more or less grudgingly come to terms with the new Windows 11. Apart from the fact that many useful tools have been made worse again or quite banal things from the Windows everyday life have been moved or cutted again – with the popular Explorer [...]
Every day is a groundhog… er, Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB DDR5 kit day, of course. We have already presented the exterior of Corsair’s high-end RAM modules a fair few times, but, as with so many things, it is mainly the inner values that matter. I can therefore already tell you that today’s test subject relies on SK Hynix 16 [...]
