Razer Tomahawk ATX in the test: midi tower with Razer Chroma RGB and swing doors

Page 1: Razer Tomahawk ATX in the test: Midi-Tower with Razer Chroma RGB and swing doors

Razer is entering the case segment – and we are testing the company’s first midi tower with the Tomahawk ATX. This gaming case already attracts attention visually with its Razer Chroma RGB lighting and glass swing doors. But does the Tomahawk ATX also have a functional impact?

Razer was previously not on the list as a case supplier. But if Seasonic as a power supply manufacturer brings an at least exciting case onto the market, why shouldn’t Razer also succeed? Especially since Razer already offers products far beyond the input device segment. Entry into the housing market should be successful with two models. The Tomahawk Mini-ITX is offered as the basis for powerful, but space-saving gaming systems. The Tomahawk ATX, on the other hand, is designed as a midi tower and supports a maximum of E-ATX mainboards.

Both models have a similar design with a minimalist shape but eye-catching lighting embossed. Both a central Razer logo in the front and underbody lighting light up. Swinging doors made of glass, which make the interior easily accessible in both models, are also striking.

Another thing both models have in common is their high price. The Tomahawk Mini-ITX should 199, 99 Euro. For the full-blown Tomahawk ATX, Razer uses 229, 99 Euro.

In the unpacked & touched video we take a first look at the case:

Competitions, Featured Announcement

For Day 21 of the KitGuru Advent Calendar 2020, we’re teaming up with NZXT to give away a H1 Mini-ITX chassis, which also comes with a pre-installed 650W 80Plus Gold rated SFF PSU, creating the perfect starting point for a small form-factor build.

Back when NZXT announced the H1 case, the company said that its aim was to take Mini-ITX PC building to the next level. We had the opportunity to review the case earlier in the year and it came away with our highest ‘MUST HAVE’ award.

We do have to note that in November, there was an issue found with a small number of H1 cases. NZXT has since fixed the problem, so the H1 case our winner receives is an updated version with the fix in place.

Entering this giveaway is simple, all you need to do is head over to THIS POST on our Facebook page and leave a comment. We plan to have a new discussion topic each day, today we are asking you guys to tell us what case you are currently using. This competition is open to the UK.

The winner will be picked at random by 10am December 22nd, and a new competition will also be announced for Day 22.

Terms and Conditions: This competition is open in the UK, starting at 10AM on December 21st and ending at 9:59AM on December 22nd. Due to the busy Christmas season and the COVID-19 situation, prize deliveries could take longer than usual. In compliance with GDPR, we will not collect or store any personal information as part of this competition. Once the winner has been contacted and their prize received, personal details will be deleted from our email servers. Your details will not be shared, we respect your privacy.

KitGuru Says: Good luck to everyone entering today’s competition! We’ll be back to announce the winner tomorrow morning and open the door for Advent Calendar Day 22!

KitGuru Advent Calendar Day 20: Win a Corsair peripheral bundle! (closed)

For Day 20 of the KitGuru Advent Calendar 2020, we’re teaming up with CORSAIR to give away an excellent peripheral bundle! The bundle includes a K100 Optical-mechanical keyboard, a Dark Core Pro SE mouse, an MM350 Extended mouse pad and a Virtuoso SE headset!

The engineering version of Intel Core i9-11900 has been tested in CPU-Z. Its efficiency is equal to the strongest Comet Lakes

Everything seems to indicate that Intel fans still working on computers with Haswell or Skylake processors that are several years old, they will soon have good reasons to switch to newer hardware. As we know, the Blue’s performance progress has not been very impressive in recent years, but fortunately the situation will be different in a few months. Rocket Lake chips (Core 11. Generation) based on the new Cypress Cove architecture, which should guarantee a noticeable increase in IPC even despite the same lithography 14 nm . Not only that, the effects of the new technology are already visible after the first leaks, where the upcoming systems record good results. Now we have another piece of evidence in the form of early Intel Core i9 testing – 11900 on CPU-Z.

I have to admit that such a low clocked processor performed extremely well. So it is easy to imagine the Rocket Lake result if it only worked with the announced clock rates at the level of ~ 5.0 GHz.

“src =” https://www.purepc.pl/image/news/2020/12 / 20 _ intel_core_i9 _ 11900 _ in the_engineering_zostal_tested_w_cpu_z_wydajnosciowo_dorownuje_the most powerful_comet_lake_om_0.jpg ”

Intel Core processors 11. Generation is not only Rocket Lake? Core i3, Pentium and Celeron models can be Comet Lake Refresh systems

An 8-core engineering model fell into the hands of an unknown tester / 16 – threaded Core i9 – 11900, which was characterized by quite low clock speeds – basically it worked at 1.8 GHz, for it accelerated to 3.8 GHz for all cores and 4.4 GHz for a single core. We just don’t know if these frequencies correspond to Thermal Velocity Boost or Turbo Boost Max 3.0 mode. The processor was tested on the MSI Z motherboard 490 And (probably the UNIFY model) made in Mini-ITX format with LGA socket 1200, which is adapted to support both Core processors 11. and 10. generation. According to the published announcement, the current BIOS does not support the new integrated Xe graphics.

Intel Core i9 – 11900 K tested in Ashes of the Singularity

You have to admit that such a low-clocked processor did extremely well. With a score of 582 points in the single-threaded built-in benchmark in CPU-Z, the upcoming Rocket Lake has almost caught up with the current top 10 – Core i9 – 10900 K. In the multi-thread test, he managed to get 5262 points, which in turn translates into a slightly weaker result than the Core i7 – 10700. This sounds promising – it’s easy to imagine the Rocket Lake result if it only worked with the announced clock speeds of ~ 5.0 GHz.

Unpacked & touched: SilverStone Fara B1 Pro – inexpensive A-RGB housing

With the Sugo 15 we recently tested a particularly elegant SilverStone case with an aluminum shell. The new Fara B1 Pro shows that SilverStone can also do very different things: Because this midi tower is supposed to attract attention above all with four A-RGB fans.

Three of these illuminated 120 – mm fans sit behind a front made of transparent plastic. The fourth A-RGB fan can be seen when looking through the glass side panel on the rear wall. The lighting can either be controlled via a suitable mainboard, a button on the supplied controller or the converted reset button. SilverStone does not deliver a fan control. Thanks to the 3-pin connector, the fans can still be easily controlled, e.g. via the mainboard.

With dimensions of 207 x 446 x 401 mm (W x H x D) and a volume of 37 liters, the Fara B1 Pro is one of the more space-saving ATX cases. The low weight of less than 6 kg is also noticeable. To do this, however, you have to live with economical use of materials. According to SilverStone, the two-chamber interior contains 16, 5 cm high processor cooler and 17 cm long graphics card space. If you want to retrofit fans, you can use two 120 – mm fan on the power supply cover as well as two 120 – or 140 – mm- Mount the fan under the cover. When using water cooling, a maximum of 280 – mm radiators are supported. A 360 – mm radiator is, however, despite the three 85 – mm front fan slots cannot be used.

The modular HDD cage on the bottom of the housing only accommodates a single 3.5-inch drive. A 2.5-inch drive can be mounted on it for this purpose. Two further 2.5-inch drive carriers sit on the mainboard tray. And finally, two 2.5-inch drives can also be screwed directly onto the tray.

The Fara B1 Pro version with four A-RGB fans and A-RGB controller costs around 85 Euro. With the basic variant Fara B1 there is also a much cheaper option with only one, non-illuminated fan. It is sold for under 50 Euro.

In the video we present the Fara B1 Pro in more detail. The detailed test with all measurements, the comparison with competing models and the final conclusion will be available here in the near future.

NZXT H1 (Image credit: NZXT)

Update 11/28/2020 02:00 PT: It would appear that the one of the screws that hold the PCIe riser cable in its place is the culprit. One Redditor was greeted with smoke when powering up his system for the first time, while another Redditor had an encounter with flames.

NZXT hasn’t confirmed the possible cause of the fire hazard. Nevertheless, Central Computers previously shared a message from a NZXT representative that reportedly confirms the speculation around the screw. Apparently, the retailer has removed the statement, but an archive of the communique is still available.

The NZXT representative’s message reads as follows:

We do need to halt sales due to the fact that a top screw has caused 1 case screw on the case to spark and possibly catch fire. We do have a fix for this, but we would need to halt sales for this product until we are able to get you guys the screw per units that you do have. If you have already purchased the unit and are experiencing the issue, please contact the NZXT customer service team (https://www.nzxt.com/customer-support) directly to get the screw and receive a tutorial on how to fix the issue. Our first step today was to put a full stop on all sell through of this model and quarantine any inventories in the channel. We will be reworking all units to quickly put them back into a saleable position. The modification is a very simple replacement of one single screw; but something that we need to do nonetheless.

Original story:

The NZXT H1 has turned into a popular choice for PC builders putting together compact systems. However, NZXT has discovered that a small percentage of the cases might present a safety issue to its consumers.

Through a rather short Reddit post, NZXT has urged H1 owners to reach out to the company’s customer service team through the h1support@nzxt.com email. The case manufacturer didn’t provide any explanations as to what the cause of the recall could be. Notwithstanding, the issue might not be a major one since NZXT is preparing a simple repair kit that H1 owners can install on their own.

Unlike other mini-ITX cases, the H1 comes with a 650W SFX power supply and a custom-tailored 140mm AIO liquid cooler. We suspect that the issue may be related to one of those parts.

One Redditor claimed that the problem could be attributed to a tiny screw that specifically secures the PCIe graphics card riser mount. The screw is reportedly shorting out the system and causing it to not work properly. The same Redditor shared his experience that his system would automatically reset if there is any pressure on the portion of the case where the graphics card is housed.

NZXT’s statement is as follows:

NZXT has identified a potential safety issue with H1 cases and we are working with the US Consumer Products Safety Commission along with the proper global authorities to notify our customers and provide them with a solution.

While we believe this issue only impacts a small percentage of cases, we are playing it safe and have paused sales of the H1 and are developing a simple-to-use repair kit that H1 owners can install themselves without having to ship their cases anywhere.

If you’d like more information about this matter, please contact our customer service team so they can assist you by emailing h1support@nzxt.com

Thank you and we apologize for the inconvenience!
