ASUS WL-500W SuperSpeed N Router Review
Techgage :: Tuesday, February 06, 2007
We took a look at the ASUS’ WL-500g router a few months ago and were quite impressed with its performance. The router we are evaluating today is similar, but can also handle new draft N wireless devices.

Cool It Ram Fan 
Dragonsteel Mods :: Tuesday, February 06, 2007
” There are a slew of companies that make products to keep our CPU, Chipset and VGA cards cool, most people just focus on those things mainly for cooling, but what about your ram? Yes most companies now provide heatspreaders on their ram but when you are overclocking it, sometimes that heatspreader is just not good enough, and may actually hamper your success at overclocking and even overall system stability. Yes there are a very few companies that make active ram cooling solutions, and today for review I have a new product from Cool It, it is aptly names the ‘Ram Fan’ and that’s pretty much what it is, a small fan that actually mounts directly to your ram and keeps it cool…

Guide to Computers: A Look beyond the Price
Techware Labs :: Tuesday, February 06, 2007
“At some point in time most of us have had to purchase a computer. Regardless of whether it was a laptop or a desktop price was a factor in the purchase. Price plays the dominant role in brand selection, component selection, timing of the purchase, and much more. It is our advice ,however, that consumers start to look beyond price and into factors that determine the overall long term usefullness of the system.”

Thermaltake Ruby Orb CPU Cooler Review
Think Computers :: Tuesday, February 06, 2007
“Thermaltake’s Orb series of CPU Coolers have always been very popular. I remember when the first Orb’s came out a few years ago, everyone I knew wanted one. Well Thermaltake continues the Orb series with the Ruby Orb. We will be testing the Ruby Orb on our AM2 system and see how it performs against all of the other coolers we have tested on the system.”

XClio Stable Power 460 Watt Power Supply Review
Tweak news :: Tuesday, February 06, 2007
“During my battery of tests, Xclio’s Stablepower 460W PSU lived up to its name. They could also legitimately call it the “Silentpower,” as it performed its duties without a whisper of noise. This PSU is available at several online retailers for around $60 US, making it a very good value.”

Moneual Moncaso 932B HTPC Case
Pro CLockers :: Tuesday, February 06, 2007
What makes Moneual one of the premiere HTPC builders as stated above? High quality products like the Moncaso 932B. The 932B is not only constructed of high quality aluminum and has striking good looks, but also boasts a full color seven inch LCD touch screen that supports a resolution of 1024×768. Throw in a remote control and a wireless keyboard and you have the ultimate HTPC case.

Ultra X Pro (QR) 800w AST PSU review 
Driver Heaven :: Tuesday, February 06, 2007
“We’re going to be reviewing one of the Ultra Power Supplies (PSU) today. They offer a Limited Lifetime Warranty on all their Power Supplies. Keep in mind, however, that to qualify for the extended lifetime warranty, the product does have to be registered with the company within 30 days of purchase. We have yet to determine how stringent this requirement is, but it does pay to read the fine print.”

GelL DDR2 PC 9280 Memory Review
Technic 3d :: Tuesday, February 06, 2007
“GeIL offers a Memory PC 9280 DDR2 2 GB Dual Kit with low latency timings and 1160 MHz. Technic3D will see as good they are with 4-4-4-12 and Overclocking against other Memory Kits.”

OCZ ProXStream 1000W Power Supply Review 
Virtual Hideout :: Tuesday, February 06, 2007
“The look of the OCZ ProXStream 1000W is more industrial than a lot of other units being offered. No bling on this unit; instead, the attention grabber is the 1000 watts of clean power it produces. The 80mm fan is quiet and keeps the power supply cool.”

Understanding & Mastering Water Cooling
Tech ARP :: Tuesday, February 06, 2007
“Ever wondered about water cooling your PC? Well, wonder no more. AlmostThere will show you everything you need to know about water cooling. “

Zalman Fatal1ty FC-ZV9 Dual Heatpipe VGA Cooler
PC Apex :: Tuesday, February 06, 2007
“The Zalman Fatal1ty FC-ZV9 is actually a VF-900Cu LED with slightly different colored Copper and a Red LED instead of Blue. Oh yeah, it also carries Fatal1ty’s picture, name, and endorsement. Say what you will about Fatal1ty branded products… any one of us would jump at the chance to market ourselves if we were given the opportunity. I must admit that he has only lent his name to some pretty good performing hardware thus far, even if some of it is a little too flashy for my taste. Let’s dig a little deeper into what this Fatal1ty GPU cooler has to offer.”

To Vista or not to Vista, that’s the question?
Hardware Analysis :: Tuesday, February 06, 2007
Having trouble getting Vista running on your newly bought computer hardware, despite the Vista compatible sticker? Rest assured you’re not alone.

MSI P965 Neo S775 Motherboard
RB Mods :: Tuesday, February 06, 2007
I got myself an Intel Extreme X6800 processor a month ago and I needed a motherboard that was able to support it also. There were several chipsets to choose from, price and performance are of course the main things I look at, and my choice fell on a Msi P965 Neo motherboard. The 965 chipset is not the fastest but still puts up a good fight vs 975 chipsets on the market. The main thing with this board is that you can get it for under 100$ which is a bargain compared to even older 945 chipset boards. So it’s time to test this one out and see what it can do vs a AMD motherboard with a overclocked 4800+ AM2 under the hood.

Antec Nine Hundred Gaming Case
Dragonsteel Mods :: Monday, February 05, 2007
” A couple days ago I reviewed the Antec EarthWatts 500 Watt power supply, today I have another product from Antec, the Nine Hundred Gaming Case. The Antec Nine Hundred Gaming Case is a bit off the norm for Antec products, most of their products are very stylish, subtle and elegant looking, something I could easily see in an Executives Office. Don’t get me wrong, the Nine Hundred is very nice as well, but it is aimed at the gamer segment of the market, it’s flashy, bold and definitely makes a statement. The Nine Hundred case is unlike any other I have seen, it combines the best of Antecs’ designs and experience into a well made, functional and great looking chassis that will be hard to beat… ” 

Antec P180B reviewed 
Burnout PC :: Monday, February 05, 2007
“It’s been a while since I looked at a case with so many features for this price. The Antec P180 is fairly cheap if you consider how much you get in return for it. It’s not the most spacious case and it does get a bit crowded in there once your system is all set up. But the features like sound dampening, removable trays with anti vibration grommets, and stellar looks makes it all good. Im more than pleased with this case.”

Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro
GideonTech :: Monday, February 05, 2007
“In the included instructions it says that the surface was milled down specifically to work with their thermal grease for the best performance. Well, I don’t know if that’s true, but I’m always willing to give things a try, instead of cleaning the goop off the heatsink, I installed it as is. Don’t worry though, I still plan to remove it and test again with the benchmark AS5.”

Overclocking, The Natural Way
Phoronix :: Monday, February 05, 2007
“Over the weekend a blizzard has hit Michigan causing sub-zero temperatures, inches of snow, and zealous winds. This winter weather has caused the closing of shopping centers and community activities; public transportation systems and the Gerald R. Ford International Airport have also come to a halt. However, we took this opportunity to make the best of it with natural sub-zero overclocking. With the Abit AW9D i975X motherboard, an Intel Pentium 4 processor, 2GB of OCZ’s Flex XLC PC2-9200 memory, and cooling provided by Mother Nature, we set off on a spontaneous overclocking adventure. Have you ever seen a motherboard in a snow-bank? We sure have.”

Spire Coolers February 2007 Contest
Overclockers Online :: Monday, February 05, 2007
Another month, another prize. That’s just how it rolls around here at Overclockers Online. We’ve recently given away a lot of power supplies from Spire and that’s about the change. Today we have for you a Fourier IV

Kingston 2x1GB PC2-9200 & PC2-9600 DDR2 Memory Review
Virtual Hideout :: Monday, February 05, 2007
“Well I really don’t know what else to say. This review would compare to taking a Ferrari for a spin and going “Yep! It’s fast alright!” We’re talking about some of the fastest memory on the market today; 1150Mhz and 1200Mhz right out of the box from a name you can trust; Kingston Technology.” 

Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 overclocking 
Nordic Hardware :: Monday, February 05, 2007
New 3DMark records and overclocking results at over 5 GHz are impressive and all, but for those who can’t afford to buy a processor for thousands of dollars, the cheaper models have a lot more appeal. Overclocking of a slower processor can save you a lot of money and gives everyone an opportunity to get real good performance at a low cost.

Zalman 9700LED CPU Cooler Review
Techgage :: Monday, February 05, 2007
If you love large air CPU coolers, then you will drool over the 9700LED. It’s equipped with a 110mm fan, while it’s older brother, the 9500LED, has only 92mm. Included extras here include better thermal paste and a fan controller. Does this CPU coolers larger stature make it a winner in our temperature testing?

SilverStone Element 500W 
Overclockers Online :: Monday, February 05, 2007
Overall though, I am very pleased with the SilverStone Element 500W (SCE). The voltage on all of the rails were extremely good, even in a heavily overclocked and power hungry system. There also seemed to be no degradation in voltage regulation throughout the 4 week load testing period. If you are running an m-ATX or HTPC system and would like to easily rid yourself of a cabling nightmare, definitely consider the SilverStone Element 500w (SCE). It is a unique idea and has been implemented very nicely by SilverStone.

Scythe Katana II 
Pro CLockers :: Monday, February 05, 2007
The cooler that is getting the facelift today is the Katana. This line of coolers has seen three previous models prior to this new one. There was the original Katana, and then with the introduction of the Intel socket T, the Katana 775 was released. And finally for the performance enthusiast the Katana CU was announced. Today, we have the Katana 2 which boasts a whole new life as well as some other additions. How will the new Katana stack up with some of the newest coolers we have tested lately?

In Win F430 Xtreme Series ATX Computer Case Review 
Tweaknews :: Monday, February 05, 2007
“You’ve got to hand it to In Win. It takes a lot of guts to design and market a computer chassis with such close association to an automotive legend like the Ferarri F430. With their F430 case, though, In Win seems to have pulled it off rather well. The immaculate finish, innovative design elements, single-fan cooling, and racecar sounds all contribute to make the F430 a high-performance and stylish case with that little something extra that sets it apart from the crowd.”

U-TEK 8-Gigabyte SDHC card Review 
Xtreme Computing :: Monday, February 05, 2007
“A quick look at the cards photo rating for this camera (1130 pictures at 10MP) shows me something is wrong here, but with the experience with the Treo 680 I decided to go ahead and start snapping to see if once I went over that magic 1130 photos the card would be recognised as 8 gig rather than the reported 4 the camera was reporting. This is what happened when I put it in the Treo, it only registered as a 4 gig until I had used up and copied over 4 gigs of material to the device”

Enermax Infiniti 720w Modular PSU
Overclock 3d :: Monday, February 05, 2007
Overclock3D have been given an exclusive chance to take a look at Enermax’s latest PSU. Combining the features and stability of the Galaxy along with the size of the Liberty, will this PSU be able to impress? 

XSReviews one year anniversary Competition – 2 weeks remaining
XS Reviews :: Monday, February 05, 2007
“XSReviews recently celebrated its one year anniversary and to mark this momentous occasion we are running the biggest competition XSR has ever run. That’s right, we really pulled the stops out on this one and we managed to pull in plenty of support from some very kind sponsors.”

CyberPower Gamer Infinity 7500 System Review
Hardware Logic :: Monday, February 05, 2007
“Dude, we know you’re not getting a Dell, so where exactly should you splurge this year’s tax refund? CyberPower, a company most known for DIY (Do-It-Yourself) replacement rigs at blue collar prices, hopes to tempt with a $999 gaming PC complete with LCD monitor and Vista Home Premium to kick off their new Gamer 7500 line. Can they cram enough computing muscle in this low budget build to play today’s games?”

iStar Nitro AX Full Tower Computer Case Review
PC Stats :: Monday, February 05, 2007
The iStar Nitro AX case has a honeycomb vented side panel that meshes up with an internal fan duct to provide a cool air source directly to the CPU fan. The case side panel lockable, and on the inside there are plenty of quick install expansion spaces for hard drives & CDROM. The case will accommodate a full sized Intel or AMD motherboards on a removable board tray

ASUS M2NPV-VM Motherboard Review
Motherboards.org :: Monday, February 05, 2007
The ASUS M2NPV-VM motherboard is an interesting board in many respects. The board is targeted towards the digital consumer with features like HDTV Out and the standard features of ASUS motherboards, making this board an excellent choice for the Home Theater enthusiast.

Hiper Type R 730W PSU Review 
Ninjalane :: Saturday, February 03, 2007
“The Hiper HPU-4S730 is a very unique PSU in both in design and layout. The unit comes with 2x 20dba cooling fans and a fancy Stainless Steel chassis. The main ATX power connector is hardwired and located in the standard location, beyond that things get rather unique.”

Epox EP-5P945 Pro Express Motherboard Review
PC Stats :: Saturday, February 03, 2007
The Epox EP-5P945 Pro motherboard PCSTATS tested is a value-oriented alternative for those of you looking to build a machine on a budget. Built on the passively cooled Intel 945P Express and Intel ICH7 chipsets, the EP-5P945 Pro has a basic feature set and a nice collection of expansion options. It’s a good no-frills kind of motherboard, and especially well suited for the upcoming Celeron processor which is based on the Core 2 Duo architecture.

Enermax Infiniti 720w Review
XS Reviews :: Saturday, February 03, 2007
“Power supplies have slowly been getting more and more powerful to cater for the ultra high end graphics subsystems that have become the norm. In my hands I have the Enermax Infiniti 720w which not only powers today’s hardware, but features the new PCI-e 2.0 plug.”

Enermax Glory Review
Techgage :: Saturday, February 03, 2007
Enermax has provided a “one-touch-backup” solution in their external hard drive enclosure, the Glory. However as we quickly found out, the key backup features are not as glorious as the rest of the product.
