Product Information

One of the first things I do with any case is see how the side panels open. This is important to me because I’m always tinkering, so I was happy to see that the side panels were tool-free and swing open on the iCue 5000T. In our original review, we stated that the quad-core 1.8GHz CPU and 3GB RAM combo resulted in a snappy user experience, but in our recent re-test it feels a bit sluggish. You might assume that this is down to newer features and updates slowing the system down, but Humax itself hasn't issued a firmware update since 2021 – itself something of a concern. The future of television in the UK is undeniably tilting towards streaming, as evidenced by the upcoming launch of Freely.

The launch video for CORSAIR iCUE LC100 Case Accent Lighting Panels can be found at the link below: In recent years, Corsair has courted the DIY cooling community with its Hydro X lineup of custom cooling parts. And with a case this big, my liquid cooling support expectations were high, and they were met. There's radiator support up to 360 mm on the top, front, and on the motherboard tray. Channel changing is near instant if you simply tap in the channel number you want, (Same works in the epg to skip to a channel you want to see the epg at the curent time)This Commander Core XT controller is able to handle up to six fans without the use of splitters, as well as an additional channel for any RGB strips you may have. And there are four of these installed already from Corsair's factory. The company puts additional emphasis on RGB lighting outside the case with two located on the top and two below.

A good, dedicated Freeview box, like the FVP-5000T, gives you a range of features not available on a telly. You can record programmes onto the internal hard drive (and choosing what to record is super-easy, using the electronic TV guide), you can even set it to record a full series and it’ll get recorded automatically every time a new episode airs. A custom fan curve is easily done, and actually with one in place I was able to significantly reduce the amount the fans ramped up during the day and not materially impact my overall temperatures all that much. That said, if you have your heart set on a single-box solution for your TV recording and video streaming, the Aura is a solid choice.

This was part of ITV’s move to upgrade its content protection technology ahead of the launch of its new streaming service, ITVX. The new service was incompatible with many older devices, including the FVP-5000T. Launched in 2017, this device was well-regarded for its triple tuners, allowing users to record up to four programmes while watching a fifth. It also offered generous storage options, ranging from 500GB to 2TB. Humax FVP-5000T
