Geekom’s third model is now receiving a 2025 update and upgrade to a more up-to-date processor. This time, however, the jump is apparently quite small, from the i9-13900H to the i9-13900HK. I first considered simply updating the old article, but then decided to write my own review. Large parts are of course identical and have been adopted [...]

be quiet! has been known for years for being deadly serious about “quiet”. Power supply units, coolers, housings, all with the focus: as little noise as possible with maximum functionality. With the Pure Loop 3, they are now launching the third generation of their in-house AiO water cooling system. And yes, there is also a version with [...]
The Kingston KC3000 is currently one of the most powerful PCIe 4.0 SSDs on the market. After all, that’s what they say. With capacities from 512 GB to 4 TB, it covers a broad spectrum. The 2 TB version is particularly popular, as it offers enough storage space for games, video editing and demanding applications without reaching the price [...]
Introduction and unboxing With the DeathAdder V4 Pro, Razer presents a revised version of its well-known ergonomic gaming mouse. The model is wireless, very light and optimized for use in e-sports. It combines the proven design of the series with an optimized weight, a soft surface finish and an internal construction made of more robust [...]
Today I would like to update you on a detail that is often overlooked in practice, although it is crucial for the correct classification of measured values and manufacturer specifications. This is the distinction between front header and front audio. While the front header refers to the internal pin connector on the mainboard, via which the cable [...]
Today we’re taking another look at a notebook, even if we’re more familiar with this manufacturer from the mini PC sector. But the leap is not far, as they use very similar technology and components. We have already tested a device from this brand, click here for the report: Packaging and scope of delivery The device is delivered in [...]
Introduction and unboxing The Razer BlackWidow V4 Low-Profile Tenkeyless HyperSpeed is a particularly compact gaming keyboard that relies on a tenkeyless design and thus deliberately dispenses with the numeric keypad. This design makes it lighter, more portable and space-saving, which makes it interesting for gamers who value mobility or prefer [...]
NZXT has added a new flagship to its AiO line-up with the Kraken Elite series. The Kraken Elite 360 RGB comes with a revised pump, three powerful ARGB fans and a round 2.36-inch display with high resolution. But is the larger radiator surface enough to keep it at the forefront of the premium segment, not only in terms of looks but also performance [...]
The Arc Pro B50, officially launched today, positions itself directly against AMD’s Radeon Pro W7500 and NVIDIA’s RTX A1000 in the entry-level segment of professional workstations. The focus is on compact systems with ISV certifications, low power consumption and predictable behavior. A key differentiating feature is the memory [...]
Gigabyte is focusing on more variety in the new iteration of AMD chipsets and is launching some stylish boards for the increasingly popular color white with the ICE models. The design cleverly plays with black contrasting elements on the mainboard, which results in a very appealing look and can therefore be integrated well into most cases. This [...]
The PNY RTX 5070 OC is positioned as a classic butter and bread card, it should serve the mid-range segment, deliver solid frame rates and make the red pen of the purchase visible without exceeding the functional limit. It is precisely in this area of tension that the typical component mix of modern mainstream cards is created: the GPU and the [...]
In today’s test, everyone has to be strong: the mainboard, the CPU’s memory controller, the power bill during the stability test and, of course, the user. Particularly since DDR5, it is actually desirable to avoid fully populating all RAM slots. Otherwise the losses in the stable possible clock rate and consequently the performance are [...]
Because the issue is unfortunately still relevant and the junk seller company now even operates external warehouses in the EU, I decided to revisit my own experiment on this convalescent Sunday. On the one hand, quite a few new readers have joined us, and on the other hand, you really can’t warn people enough about this junk shop. Here we go [...]
Introduction and unboxing The MSI Strike Pro Wireless is the first wireless mechanical keyboard from MSI and is aimed at gamers who value quiet operation, high build quality and versatility. The model combines modern switch technology with extensive noise reduction and offers features that are designed to impress in both gaming and everyday use [...]
Today’s article grew out of a series of concrete observations in everyday testing that prompted me to take a closer look at the PCIe slot and the add in card edge connector mating interface. In my test systems I generally use PCIe 5.0 riser cards to avoid repeated plugging and unplugging at the motherboard, since the slot does not get better with [...]
I’ll ignore the “AI” squeezed into the model name, as it’s currently in fashion anyway. Because we’re actually looking at a really pretty system that shines even without artificial intelligence – at least visually. You can find out whether the rest fits in this test report. Packaging and scope of delivery I am [...]
Today we’re doing something different, because I have a test object that somehow wants and has to manage the balancing act between needing, wanting and must-to-have as well as its own finances. Personally, I see the Corsair Xeneon Edge as a narrow additional screen for the desktop, intended for content that you want to keep in view at all [...]
It continues with the 32 Gbit DDR5 ICs and this time the manufacturer is Samsung, so much in advance. The South Korean flash giant is following Micron into the consumer sector of DDR5 memory chips with a net capacity of 4 GB. This means that there are now two freely available IC types with which RAM kit manufacturers such as Kingston can offer 32 [...]
There is currently a wave of refreshes of older models from this manufacturer, but the latest processor models from Intel’s mobile sector are also getting a new home in the form of the latest member of Geekom’s IT series. Packaging and scope of delivery There’s nothing new to see on the box, once again the exterior is completely [...]
Unboxing With the SKILLER SGK50 S3 Wood PBT, Sharkoon is launching a mechanical keyboard on the market that stands out from the gray uniformity both visually and haptically. Real wood instead of plastic, high-quality PBT keycaps instead of cheap ABS, plus hot-swap, QMK/VIA support and a crisp typing feel. Let’s take a closer look at whether [...]
