Hardware Secrets posted Thermaltake iXoft Notebook Cooler Review

Weight is a major concern for those who buy a laptop. Since it’s supposed to be carried around, it has to be as lightweight as possible. Most people don’t realize however that heat is also an issue. Notebooks have a tendency to get really hot during prolonged usage. There are several cooling solutions on the market, most of them USB-powered fan units that are both heavy and noisy. iXoft, a new product from Thermaltake, is neither, relying on simple chemistry to cool a laptop and prevent the user from feeling its heat.

XSReviews has reviewed the Galaxy 8600GTS OC

When the G84 and G86 cards were released, reviewers around the world posted their reviews, giving generally quite mixed opinions. However, although there were several positive reviews of the 8600GT cards, the GTS ones received very little good publicity due to their mid range pricing with budget performance. Today I have with me the Galaxy 8600GTS OC; perhaps this one can reverse the stigma.

techPowerUp posted a review on the A-DATA PD17 Flash Drive 1 GB

The absolutely tiny A-DATA PD17 is not only the company's smallest, but lightest offering as well. The modern shape, coupled with the choice of three colors and great construction make for a very unique device. Even though it is so small, performance is very good and the PD17 is ReadyBoost capable as well.

I4U reviews the Apple TV.

If you are a heavy iTunes user with lots of video and music on your iPod and sitting on your computer, the Apple TV will make watching your content more enjoyable on a big screen. I was disappointed to see that the Apple TV does not come with any type of cables to connect the device to your TV. You would think at the price you are paying for even the 40GB version I am looking at here Apple could have thrown in a cheap component cable at minimum.

Overclockers Online has posted a new review on the Lite-On LH-20A1L

We have taken a hard look at this drive and have run quite a number of tests resulting in an overwhelming amount of data, and now it is time to put it to words. So what is this drive really? For starters, this drive lives up to its name as being a Super All Write drive capable of burning multiple types of media along with being equipped with quite a few interesting features. Beyond the features, this drive is capable of writing data at blistering speeds while maintaining accuracy and quality. In my book, it doesn't get much better than this. Lite On's LH-20A1L06C Super All Write drive performs as intended and does so at a low cost.

Benchmark Reviews has released a new article on the Hiper HPU-4M730-SS Type M 730W PSU

The new generation of power supplies has begun to amp up the competition for placement in your computer case. Antec's EarthWatts series was among the first to cause a stir in the PSU industry by emphasizing efficient power delivery over the multi-rail hype. But now 80% or better efficiency has become very common in power supplies. A perfect example of combining high-power wattage, efficiency, and good looks can be found in the Hiper HPU-4M730-SS Type M 730W PSU. The four +12V rails offer regulated power distribution, but they also deliver at least 80% of the power that they promise, which will result in a more efficient system. Hiper's Type M PSU claims to support dual and quad processors, dual (SLi and CrossFire) graphics card sets, and just about anything else you can throw at it, but Benchmark Reviews will load test the DC voltage regulation and ripple just to be sure.

Today I shall be taking a look at a product from a company that, till recently, I had not heard of before.

The company in question is Noctua and the item I will be looking at is the Noctua NC-U6, which is a chipset cooler, and with the reputation they, Noctua, have built up I am expecting some good results.
