No you're not. You are removing the heat with the water. Having a thick IHS doesn't help if you have no mechanism to remove the heat. It may take longer for a thicker piece of metal to become saturated with heat but it will nonetheless become saturated with heat. The water removes the heat. Your...

The water replaces the copper material that is removed. The surface area thus remains the same. High performance waterblocks do target the hot spot area as water atoms colliding with the copper will absorb more heat due to the vortex created. This is a lesson waterblock engineers learned a long...

And New World doesn't control your Graphics Cards Boost clocks. nVIDIA's sensors coupled with their software controls Boost Clocks. You're reaching here.

I concur with this article. Mostly on account of the entire package, Ryzen 2 brings when compared to its Intel competitors. For your average gamer, the Ryzen CPU will last longer and offer much more stable frame rates should their system have many background apps (which tends to be the norm)...

Once you factor in DX12 gaming, which we're starting to see with the Ashes of the Singularity as well as Fable Legends benchmarks, you notice that the R9 390 competes with the GTX 980 regardless of the resolution. These are in two upcoming titles whose pipeline occurs less than 20% of the time...

Yes. Unless the game is a GameWorks title, expect AMDs cards to be extremely competitive with nVIDIA's offerings. I broke this story under the pseudonym "Mahigan". Maxwell/2 cards do not support Asynchronous Compute. That means that while they can handle Compute tasks in Parallel, they cannot...

You won't notice the difference. No seriously you won't. I have an i5 4670K and a few FX 6300 rigs. You won't notice a single difference cept maybe if you play Borderlands you will... maybe :)
