Bios Magazine posted a Rock Pegasus T12 review

After successfully integrating Intel Core 2 Duo processor into high performance gaming laptops, Rock has identified that Intel's new processor also offers a great level of performance and power saving for education and business users. Not only does the silver-and-black Pegasus T12 have the computation power to run typical business applications and Windows Vista with ease, but its 10,000mAh extended battery (you'll have to excuse the unsightly bulge at the rear of the system, and the 3.1kg weight) means that the Pegasus T12 can operate with typical office applications for over 7 hours - perfect from most business trips.

BurnOutPC.com has posted a review on the NF-S12 and NF-R8 Fans from Noctua

I was familiar with Noctua in the past, but never reviewed anything from them. After looking at these fans, I can conclude that they take great care of maintaining a high quality on their products. These fans not only look great, but they also live up their expectations at being silent, yet produce a fair amount of cfm. If you find these fans to be to noisy, which i doubt btw. You can always plug in the resistor cable and decrease the fan speed making it even more silent. Overall three really good contenders when it comes to looking for new silent fans for your rig.

TrustedReviews have looked at the Toshiba Satellite U200-161

Aesthetically the U200-161 defies easy qualification. At some angles it looks really rather sleek and understated, but from others – especially when looking at the touchpad area below the keyboard – it seems rather generic. Inoffensive is the over used term that probably best applies, and at this price one shouldn’t expect a design marvel. At the very least the build quality is up to Toshiba’s generally excellent standards, so there are no concerns in that department.

Today Legit Reviews takes a look at the new and improved water block from Swiftech, the Apogee GT

Swiftech has done what many didn't think was possible by releasing a block that out performs their Storm block at a much lower price point. By increasing real-estate of the pin matrix they have optimized the block especially for the Intel Quad Core processors and it's easy to see in our test numbers that the block doesn't disappoint...

Virtual-Hideout has posted a X-Gene Mini HTPC Enclosure Review

This must be the year of the HTPC or Small Form Factor case. Company after company are producing these smaller enclosures to fill the niche and doing so under the $100 price tag. Well, X-Gene offers two styles of HTPC enclosures. One is a mid-size unit, while the other is a Mini HTPC enclosure. The Mini HTPC is the unit up for review. The key to a low cost Home Theater PC is using low cost materials while still providing a nice looking enclosure. Will the X-Gene Mini HTPC look like a budget enclosure, or will it stand up next to its more expensive siblings? The only way to find out is to get on with the review.

Neoseeker has published a review of Corsair's PC2-8888 2GB kit, the TWIN2X2048-8888.

Because it simply screamed when the right balance of FSB/CPU/memory speed was achieved, and because I was able to hit a scorching 1131-4-4-4-12 setting.

Let's face it. As soon as you get any memory that hits 1000-4-4-4-12 you are pretty much laughing. After PC8000 you really are only looking for how easy it is to get it running at 1000MHz+, how far above it you can push the memory if you are lucky enough to have a motherboard and chipset that can handle it, and on how many motherboards it will run at that speed. How high you can push the memory is a good indication of the quality of the stick; and often because of processor or FSB limitations you may still be better off to run the memory at less than its maximum speed - if you can run it with a higher FSB and a higher CPU speed.

Modders-Inc has a new review online on the Bluegears b-Cool 120mm Fan

Would you like to know how cool your computer is running at a glance? Well with the b-Cool fans you can do just that. With the b-Cool fans you not only get a cooling fan, you get a temperature sensor/display. The b-Cool 120 will show you the air temp, RPM of the fan, and also tell you its status (Cool, Warm, or Hot).

With the TJ09 Silverstone is focusing on airflow to dissipate the heat of Dual/Quad core processors and especially high end VGA cards. Their design is classic elegant with functional and clean looks. This is a high end product made for high end systems, can it keep a Core 2 / Geforce 8800 GTX cool enough? We find out...

3D Game Man posted a review on the Zalman CNPS9700 NT CPU Cooler

is one incredible product that is sure to please. If you don't want to install a water cooling system because of the potential risks, then this is a great alternative. I was impressed that this cooler could keep a Core 2 Duo E6400 CPU overclocked to 3.2GHz using 1.55 voltage cool. This is something that's even a challenge for some water cooling kits to accomplish.

Overclockers Online has posted a new review on the Rosewill RCX-Z775-EX

I think it is safe to say that Rosewill really does take pride in the quality of their products and this makes one believe their other goal of customer satisfaction is followed through as well. As for how the RCX-Z775-EX performed, I think the thermal testing results outline the abilities of this cooler quite well. The overclock I tested at and the cooler I compared the RCX-Z775-EX with would have made a lot of coolers look far inferior but the Rosewill cooler didn't back down.
