  1. CPU Waterblock Storage Prep


    Member Content - Started by ,

    This is a simple, easy alternative for getting your waterblocks ready for storage. If your waterblock isn't filthy, this method can be used in lieu of a complete disassembly.
  2. Subzero benching an MSI RX5700XT


    Member Content - Started by ,

    My first succesful subzero run with a GPU.
    This is an MSI RX5700XT with unlocked power and clocks. The memory hates life cold, so I had to drop around 150mhz compared to my watercooled run. 
    I'm thinking about getting some memory heaters to solve issues like that for future runs.
  3. Creative's New Streaming DACAMP Ft Soundblaster GC7


    EHW Reviews - Started by ,

    Audio interfaces are not a completely new concept, but ones that surely make it less difficult to do something that’s frequently cumbersome, are few and a long way off. So Creative set out to make an audio interface that's easy to use on the fly. Creative has made some DAC/AMP combos that get within striking distance, like the Sound Blaster X3 (holds up the X3). Where the X3 falls short is quick changes which you would do in game. The X3 nonetheless has the ability to do the same  as the GC7, however it’s easier to do with the GC7.

  4. InWin Sirius & Loop Colour Test


    EHW Reviews - Started by ,

    Who better to design a great case fan than the innovative and forward-thinking case manufacturer, InWin, Wait! Didn’t I do that introduction already? Today I have 2 new and completely different case fans from InWin, the Sirius Pure and the Sirius Loop. As 120mm case fans go, these are lookers with the performance to back it up. So, at the risk of humming that Michael Jackson/Bill Bottrell song: It don't matter if you're black or white. Let's see what we find.

  7. Creative SXFI Gamer Review in 2021


    EHW Reviews - Started by ,

    Hey fellow enthusiasts, I am Ryan aka bluedevil. Almost a year ago, I looked at Creative’s SuperXFi Gamer headset at another publication. Well today, in 2021, I am gonna take another look at this innovative gaming headset. Stay with me.   So what makes a gaming headset a gaming headset? Headphones plus a mic right? Yeah, but Creative set out to make the SuperXFi Gamer a little bit different from the rest of the other gaming headsets on the market. They injected their award winning SuperXFi holographic audio technology into the Gamer headset. Now if you recall, the design language is really familiar to the SuperXFi Theatre that Enterprise reviewed recently, but I can assure you the Gamer takes it to a different level on the digital battlefield.  Read the full review here:  https://reviews.extremehw.net/all-reviews/creative-sxfi-gamer-review/
