Express test and review of external hard drive Transcend StoreJet 25M3 (TS1TSJ25M3G) and HDD ST1000LM035
In our difficult times, external hard drives are the second most important tool for storing important information. In the first place, of course, are cloud storages, but sometimes access to them is hampered by various factors: from lack of access to the Internet to too low a connection speed to the latter. It is for […]
Overclocking Intel Xeon W3520 (i7-920) [D0, Bloomfield]
The Intel Xeon W3520 is the cheapest 4-core, 8-thread processor for the LGA 1366 platform, and also, in combination, a complete analogue of the Core i7-920 desktop chip. Its price at the time of writing this material is at around $0.70-1.4, which makes it an extremely welcome guest in an overclocking system. In this article, […]
Overclocking Intel Xeon X5660 [B1, Westmere-EP]
In this article, we will continue to study the overclocking potential of the LGA 1366 platform processors. Next in line is the 6-core, 12-thread Xeon X5660 chip. At the very beginning of the “Chinese” renaissance of the LGA 1366 platform (2015-2016), this chip was not very popular due to its exorbitant price (relative to younger […]

However, the GeForce GTX 1070 has several important features that allow it to stay afloat, even […]
AMD mobile processor undervolting on the example of HP G62-b51SR laptop and Athlon II N350 chip
At some point, the owner of almost any laptop thinks: “Can my device heat up less?”. Fortunately, the answer to this question in the vast majority of cases will be precisely yes. In modern laptops, heat reduction can be achieved in many ways (from limiting the TDP of a particular node, to fine-tuning the voltage-to-frequency […]
Overclocking and testing of the graphics card Radeon R9 270X in the realities of 2021 [XFX R9-270X-CDFC]
Over the past couple of months, we have published several articles from the “Surviving the Bottom” series at once, where we considered the most affordable graphics adapters for ultra-budget systems. In general, it is possible to sit out the mining boom on them, but as we found out, none of the tested cards can provide […]
