IgorsLAB: Corsair iCUE LINK TITAN 420 RX RGB review - Lots of light, lots of power? Or just hot air in colorful plastic?
Corsair’s AIO coolers have become an integral part of the market. Loved, hated, but above all bought. With the TITAN 420 RX RGB, Corsair not only wants to set a new performance reference, but also push its own iCUE LINK ecosystem. Goodbye tangled cables, hello RGB – at least that’s Corsair’s marketing promise. But how does the device perform beyond the colorful bling-bling show? Is it really a titan among the 360 AiOs or just another plastic monster with a USB tick? I put it on the table, took it apart, measured it and tested it.

Back in the 90s, the side-scrolling beat'em up genre dominated video games, with series like CAPCOM's Final Fight, SEGA's Streets of Rage, and Konami's licensed games such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and The Simpsons gaining widespread success, which sometimes even surpassed traditional fighting games, thanks, for the most part, to the immediacy of their gameplay.

Crucial has slowly been adding new memory kits to their Overclocking Edition DDR5 line. One of their latest kits is their DDR5-6400 CL32 32GB (2x16GB) kit that of course operates at 6400 MHz with timings of 32-40-40-103 at 1.35V. Compared to the last two Pro Overclocking kits we’ve taken a look at Crucial has updated the heatspreaders. The new ones we have here have a much better design in my opinion and are available in both white and black versions. Let’s get this memory installed and see what it can do!
