Virtual Hideout posted Ultra ChillTec Thermo Electric CPU Cooler Review

Wow! This is one heck of an impressive unit. I was a bit skeptical at first, as this appears to be almost identical to the Titan Amanda I reviewed several months back. It turns out that this particular cooler is far more superior in the hardware layout and cooling ability than the Amanda unit.

Overclockers Online has posted a new review on the Thermalright HR-07

The entire Thermalright High-Riser family has been a huge success. The HR-07, the latest addition to the family, easily outperformed the stock cooler much like the other High Riser products.

ThinkComputers.org posted ASUS P5N-E SLI 650i Motherboard Review

ASUS is a brand known for quality and excellence in all of their products. With the launch of NVIDIA's 680i chipset ASUS presented enthusiasts with the Strike Extreme board with the price tag of around $400. This price tag made it very unreasonable for most consumers out there. Because ASUS knows everyone is not made of money they released the P5N-E SLI board, which uses the less expensive 650i chipset. This is a very great option for consumers who want to SLI support on the Core 2 Duo platform. So let's take a look at this budget board from ASUS.

The TechZone reviews some new flash memory products from Golden Mars.

The interesting thing, though, is that many brands do not manufacture
their own products, relying instead on inexpensive OEMs and ODMs to create the goods on their behalf. GoldenMars has been an OEM manufacturer for some time, and they are now ready to jump into the retail world under their
own banner, rather than someone else's. GoldenMars launched their GeeDom
line of Flash memory products last year, and while they're not particularly
flashy (pardon the pun), they're perfectly functional.

Virtual-Hideout posted Enermax Uber Chakra ATX Chassis Review

If tall server cases are your thing, then by all means pick up the Enermax Uber Chakra. This enclosure is not bogged down with a lot of features, but the ones it does have are perfect for both the everyday user and hard core gamer or future watercooling, as there is plenty of room to install watercooling gear

Elite Bastards posted a review on the PowerColor Radeon X1950 PRO SCS3 (Silence Edition) video card

We spoke in our introduction of the pitfalls of creating a passively cooled high-end board, and the largest of those pitfalls is, of course, heat output. Which brings us to the monster of a heatsink we have before us - This thing is huge! The solution employed by PowerColor is generally based around Arctic Cooling's Accelero S2 cooler, and uses quad heat pipes to pull heat from the GPU away from the core, where it is dissipated by the large surface area and fins of the heat sink via cold air moving through the case (thus assuming reasonable ventilation in your chassis of course). The memory on the board also finds itself equipped with heat sinks to pull heat away from the RAM, where once again it is moved away by those thirty-one fins.

CoolTechZone.com posted a review on the Palm Treo 680

Palm has been in the smartphone business for quite some time, and over the years, the quality of smartphones from Palm has gone up significantly. But as is the case with a lot of smartphones, they are designed to keep businesspeople as their primary focus and target market. While that’s all well and good, a lot of mainstream consumers realize the value proposition of smartphones in terms of increased productivity and easy handling of tasks. As such, smartphones are now starting to go mainstream, and Palm has just the solution for such consumers in the form the Treo 680.
