CA: ncix.com US: us.ncix.com It should perform similarly to the Corsair H70 as far as the pump and radiator are concerned, but it comes with what looks like a reasonably good quality fan (unlike the H70) which should give it an edge in terms of noise to performance ratio.

CA: ncix.com US: us.ncix.com Almost no one tests the latest graphics cards on an AMD test bench these days, so just for you AMD users I decided to do a run through with the top graphics cards from the GeForce and Radeon camps to see how they fare on the AMD Bulldozer 8 core platform!

CPU CA: www.ncix.com US: www.us.ncix.com Motherboard CA: www.ncix.com US: www.us.ncix.com A unique product, and one that I’ll be finding a very unique use for in the coming weeks :)

ncix.com Here you guys can see how to install an Intel LGA2011 CPU, and I also show (with at least one misadventure) how to mount the Corsair H100 to this new platform!

www.ncix.com Cry “HAVIK” and let slip the dogs of war!

www.ncix.com It’s finally here. The world’s first 8-core desktop processor!

ncix.com I remember thinking how schmexy the APOGEE XT looked when I first saw pictures of it back at the time it was being released. Now that I see it in person… It’s WAY more schmexy!

www.ncix.com It’s finally here and I guarantee it’s the highest performing pre-filled liquid cooling system out there due to its massive size!

Yeah I rigged up my test benches with dual GTX 590s to remove any and all video card bottlenecks (in theory, but instead I just introduced driver limitation bottlenecks). There’s always so much debate about this, so I took two similarly priced CPUs and put them head to head in games!

ncix.com Now we can see how much of an impact the motherboard chipset has on gaming performance. At the end of it all, it looks like you’re probably better off buying the motherboard with the FEATURES you want and spending money on other parts for performance.
