Visiontek have taken the 2600 XT 256Mb and redesigned it to perfectly suit low profile PCs or Media Centres.

HIS HD 3850 IceQ 3 Turbo 512MB Review
|
As usually, after the basic models all made in the same fashion as the referent one, the first cards with more exotic cooling systems begin to arrive. Not that it is an imperative with such cold weather at the moment, but an overclocker values each degree Celsius. This time, we got a graphics card f...

EVGA 8600GTS 256MB 256-P2-N761-AR Video Card Review
|
I went with these specific cards mainly because of the DDR3 that is on them, there are other cards at this price point but not many that have the DDR3 memory. I shopped around quite a bit and did a lot of research before buying them. Originally when I was upgrading my system with the EVGA motherboar...

Gigabyte HD 2600 Pro 512MB Reviewed
|
I've said before that the HD 2600 Pro should be passed over in favor of the XT for anyone who wants to play video games, or the HD 2400 XT for people just interested in having a discrete graphics card without all that gaming malarkey. But then, Gigabyte has put together a compelling package with the...

Asus EAH3870 TOP 512MB Tested
|
This is the closest that an AMD ATI based graphics card has got to competing with Nvidia at the same price point for some time now, but there are still cases where even this factory overclocked Radeon HD 3870 from Asus disappoints me a bit. It pains me to say that because the Radeon HD 3870 is a tru...

Asus, EVGA and MSI GeForce 8800 GT Round-Up
|
We've got factory overclocked GeForce 8800 GT cards from Asus, EVGA, and MSI in house, the EN8800GT TOP, the e-GeForce 8800 GT KO, and the NX8800GT, respectively. At their most basic level, all three of these cards are quite similar, but each company does put their own spin on the GeForce 8800 GT in...

Asus 8800GT Top Videocard Review

We have the 8800GT card on our test bench today.

Sapphire Radeon HD 3850 Ultimate Edition Tested
|
Since this is the first stock clocked HD 3850 we have been greeted with we thought we would check it out against the overclocked HD 3850 from GECUBE along with the stock clocked 8800GT for good measure. Moving onto the card itself, the front looks a bit weird with a large plate covering most of the ...

Apple long has had the MP3 market in its firm hands. Ever since the first iPod was released they somehow have managed to win the hearts of millions of customers even if their players never have been at the technological forefront.

Gaming Books Round-up

Thus, this little round-up comes to a close and while it is by no means complete, we do hope that it has at least proven useful - if it hasn't then you can always read our own attempt to look at how games are designed and made. The sheer number of books out there on the topic of computer and video g...

SteelSeries Siberia Neckband Gaming Headset Review
|
With sound quality almost as good as professional studio headsets you really can't go wrong with the Siberia Neckband Headset. If you have a big head like me and comfort is a concern for you however, I would suggest you look for a more conventional headset design.

Big cooler Roundup, Battle of the CPU coolers
|
This is a big roundup with over 18 different cooler configurations. We tried to have exactly the same testing conditions in terms of performance, noise and of course retail price. As it seems the bigger size doesn't exactly reflect the best performance. From our tests, the Titan Amanda Tech proved t...

Auras LPT-709 Wave Heatsink Review
|
Looking for a light weight heatsink that's compatible with both AMD and Intel processor platforms? The Auras LPT-709 heatsink is one such cooler, and it runs fairly quietly too. The LPT-709 comes with a 92mm PWM fan that scales in speed from 800-2400RPM with compatible motherboards. At its fastest s...

Thermaltake Bigwater 760i Liquid Cooling System Review
|
This system is a bit different from other liquid coolers I've reviewed - rather than mounting it outside the case or on the side panel, this system is uses up two of 5,25" drive bays, keeping it out of the way of other components. Let's see how this setup works and more importantly, how it perf...

Thermaltake V1 CPU Cooler Review
|
If Thermaltake could just get some better instructions included with the V1 I feel they'd have a real hit on their hands. I have no reservations suggesting the V1 based on its performance just be ready for what might be a frustrating installation.

Zalman CNPS9700NT Heatsink Review
|
The Zalman CNPS9700NT follows in the footsteps of the popular CNPS9700 LED heatsink, and it's just as big as the latter. What sets the CNPS9700NT apart is a 100mm Pulse Width Modulation PWM compliant fan - making this heatsink a more attractive choice for Intel platforms than the pervious version an...

Zerotherm NV120 and Thermalright Ultra 120 eXtreme Compared
|
The Zerotherm Nirvana NV120 is a fantastic cooler that outperforms much of the competition between the very quiet to silent fan lower speeds. And, although it is technically the best performing heatsink we have seen to date, we'd never recommend using it at full speed. On the other hand, the Thermal...

GlacialTech Igloo 5610 Series CPU Cooler Review
|
The GlacialTech Igloo 5610 Series is much like the 5710 Series we looked at just a few days ago, two identical heatsinks with the choice of fan as the variable that makes up the Silent and PWM versions. The 5710 we looked at featured three heatpipes, and the 5610 we will be testing today only has tw...

|
Sunon Waturbo Liquid Circulation Heatsink Review
|
The Sunon Waturbo isn't your average heatsink, at its center is a liquid core and a little magnetically coupled impeller to stir things up. As the 92mm fan spins, so do the blades of the internal impeller. This pumps the red glycol based coolant around the small aluminum chamber at the heart of the ...

Thermalright Ultima 90 CPU Cooler Review

Alle guten Dinge sind drei, möge man meinen, wenn man die mittlerweile dritte Version der beliebten Noiseblocker Cool Scraper betrachtet.

Gigabyte G-Power 2 Pro Cooler Review
|
This sound dampening shroud around the 120mm fan comes at a cost unfortunately. The large size and 600gms of the G-Power 2 Pro require mainboard removal for installation. There are two sides to argue for and against screw points being on the back side of the mainboard as we mentioned. For me, I'll t...

Silentmaxx Frostbite CPU Cooler Review

Grafikkarten Kühler Vergleichstest

In früheren PC Zeiten war das Kühlungskonzept einfach: Es gab nur eine, maximal zwei, potentielle Hitzequellen im Inneren des Rechenknechts. Die CPU und eventuell das Netzteil. Doch schon in näherer Vergangenheit wird auch die Abführung der Abwärme der Grafikkarte zum großen Problem bei der Zusammen...
