Available exclusively at Halfords this Christmas, for £180, the Top Gear Edition Sat Nav features HD Traffic, a 4.3-inch touchscreen display, and best of all you get to listen to Jeremy Clarkson tell you where you've messed up! Let's take a closer look...

The NZXT HAVIK 120 is a smaller version of the HAVIK 140, which we tested some time ago, and reached a good performance level. The HAVIK 120 has four 8 mm heatpipes and two 120 mm fans. Let's find out if it is also a good performer.

Like many of you, I've already started my 2012 X-MAS shopping. This year I was delegated three people to shop for. My wife is shopping for everyone else, but I'm taking care of the kids. The two oldest were very easy to shop for thanks to Toys-R-Us' Video Game sale; buy one at full price and get the second one half off. I have to admit that I don't really like retail shopping and this year is no exception. After spending 45 minutes trying to get the 10 games I needed from behind glass, I had to wait another hour in line to pay for them. When I finally got there someone had stolen my Madden 2012!

Black Friday has come and gone, but there are several deals still available. In some categories it's possible to get an even better deal than what was offered by brick and mortar stores. Shopping online is nothing new and the tools for getting the best possible price make online shopping easier than ever. Last year we told you about Google's shopping network that lets you search for the best prices in nearly every category. Pricewatch and TweakTown's Shopping network built in association with PriceGrabber are also very good places to locate and purchase X-MAS presents.

Today we test the middle member of Coolermaster's fresh Silent Pro Hybrid series, which with its 1050W will easily power even the most power hungry systems and at the same time will save you some money from electricity bills, thanks to its Gold efficiency.

A great gaming mouse is nothing without a great gaming mouse mat, which is why it's important to buy a good one to match that fancy gaming mouse you just bought. You need a high quality gaming surface to make sure a high quality mouse lives up to its legacy.

Corepad aim to please with a wide range of mouse mats and mouse accessories which they've been developing for the last eight years.
