IgorsLAB: EKL Alpenföhn Wing Boost 3 ARGB High Speed White Edition Review - When data sheet and reality collide
With the Alpenföhn Wing Boost 3 ARGB High Speed, EKL expands its own portfolio with a bright 120 mm case fan, which is available in black and white. You can either buy it separately or as a triple pack with RGB controller and remote control. But since we don’t want to evaluate the colorful appearance, but the performance, we naturally focus on the individual piece. After we had already tested the unlit Wing Boost 3 as a 140 mm variant some time ago and various questions remained unanswered, it will be interesting to see how the obviously also once again revised 120 mm model performs.

OCInside.de: Thermaltake ToughFan 12 Racing Green and Turquoise Review
We take a look at the brand new Thermaltake ToughFan 12 Racing Green and Thermaltake ToughFan 12 Turquoise fans and again show a 360 degree view in the latest review on OCinside.de. The ToughFan 12 are 120mm fans from Thermaltake that generate a high static pressure while remaining pleasantly quiet. We were recently able to convince ourselves of the performance in a detailed Thermaltake ToughFan 12 review and now Thermaltake even brings color into the case!

Glob3trotters: Noctua NH-U12A chromax.black One air cooler to rule them all!
The Noctua U12A is regarded as one of the best 120mm single tower air coolers ever made. Thus, the sexy chromax.black treatment for it was just a matter of time until its release. As we already know from the regular U12A, this possess the most advanced 120mm fans Noctua has ever made, the asymmetrical single tower heatsink design that will guarantee zero ram interference and with the help of its 7 (!) heatpipes, this will rival most 140mm air coolers in terms of cooling capability.

TechPowerUp: Ovidius RX-100 (Qin Armour) In-Ear Monitors Review
Ovidius, another new brand out of China, has already distinguished itself through a unique combination of function and form. We examine the RX-100 (Qin Armour) IEMs that look like a piece cut out of the Terracotta warrior sculptures, shaped to be the most comfortable IEMs I have ever used. Tuning is quite good too, so these are well worth reading more about!

TechPowerUp: DDR4 vs. DDR5 on Intel Core i9-12900K Alder Lake Review
The Intel Alder Lake platform has support for both DDR5 and DDR4 memory. We ran 38 application benchmarks and 10 games at multiple DDR4 configurations to learn what performance to expect when using DDR4 vs. DDR5 on 12th Gen, and whether there's a point at which DDR4 performance can beat the much more expensive DDR5.
