Xigmatek have a few cases in their collection now, the latest is the Xigmatek Utgard CPC-T90DB-U01 which is the focus of this review. The Utgard is in many ways very similar to the Midgard chassis and it has many differences too, some are good while some are not so good. There is real support for water cooling with the Utgard as well as 3 design choices - Classic (U01), Windowed (U02) or mesh (U03) and all come with the option of additional 500w power supply.

XSPC's last CPU water block was released almost two years ago, and it has been a long time coming in waiting to see a new block from them, but it's now here. The name? The XSPC Rasa. Is the Rasa a state-of-the-art CPU water block that can compete with today's popular blocks? Not ones to shy away from pure performance comparison results, we'll find out as we pit the Rasa against several other top blocks on the market.

The Armor A90 is a case manufactured with SECC steel and plastic, and it greatly diverges from the "Classic Thermaltake Armor Look." The case stands at 502mm high, 210mm wide, and 515mm in length. The case features the ability to use three intake fans, and two exhaust fans. Plus, if you purchase one you'll receive a three year warranty. So how exactly will the Thermaltake Armor A90 stand up to the competition?

When we first got a glimpse of the V series CPU coolers from Cooler Master we were very impressed. We first got a chance to check out the V8 cooler, then came the V10 cooler and today we have the brand new V6 GT cooler. Once again like the other coolers in the V series it has the engine inspired look and a very unique design. Cooler Master says the V6 GT is the most efficient cooler in the V series thanks to the double-V heatpipes, inclined heatsink array, universal steel pressure mounting and twin DynaLoop dynamic bearing fans. Let’s take a look at the V6 GT and see if it is a real performer.

Let's take a close look at the ASUS 5870 V2 and see what can result when you take a graphics monster, apply some voltage tweaks, and overclock the snot out of it without volt mods or voiding your warranty. Sound hardcore enough for you? Then read on.

Up on the review block today I’ve got another part of the GoFlex system from Seagate, this one is the GoFlex Net which enables you to use your GoFlex hard drive on your network. It’s much more than that tough, you can use it in conjunction with the Pogoplug service to stream music and video, and transfer files anywhere in the world and even to your mobile phone. The GoFlex Net also enables you to stream video and music to the FreeAgent Theater, your Xbox360 or your PS3 as well. Read on to learn more..

We test and review the MSI N465GTX Twin Frozr II, MSI's customized GeForce GTX 465. The end result is a much better looking card that you honestly can hardly hear, it comes with really first-class GPU temperatures.

Thus the end result is a spectacular looking GeForce GTX 465 that remains very silent. And combined with with some overclocking with the help of AfterBurner software, this graphics card can overclock very high. 800MHz should be a really easy target to achieve, and
considering these cards run at a default 600 MHz core you can already imagine yourself the additional performance you can tweak out of it.
