Now don't get me wrong, just because this monitor doesn't game doesn't mean it is not an exceptional piece of visual computer hardware. Just make you understand, gamers make up only a small percentage of the purchasing population. The rest of this monitor's features make it an excellent option for consumers needing a top of the line monitor for work and standard computer duties. But for less money you can get a brand named 1000:1 contrast ratio monitor which is capable of gaming and you will still have money left in your wallet.

This is a detailed description about how to set up an OpenSuSE 10.2 based server that offers all services needed by ISPs and hosters (web server (SSL-capable), mail server (with SMTP-AUTH and TLS!), DNS server, FTP server, MySQL server, POP3/IMAP, Quota, Firewall, etc.).

Almost all notebook coolers are the same or have the same design. The basic design that we have seen on them works, but is there a better design? Well we will see today if there is. The Cooler Master NotePal P1 has a stylish ergonomic design unlike other notebook coolers out there. It is very lightweight and has an extra USB port so let's see if it can get the job done.

Today we look at the Super Talent 2GB Mega Screen MP3 Player, which is Super Talents first attempt at the MP3 player market. Is this the MP3 Player for the iPod craver on a budget? With a built in FM tuner, OLED color display, lithium battery and simple button layout it just might be! Read on as we take a look at the 2GB white version to see if this is the MP3 Player is right for you.

Over all, Cooler Master has not let us down with its latest product release. The Eclipse cooler has all the makings of a great cooler with the ability to impress in any case window. I am still calling out to Cooler Master to correct its centering issues with these coolers as this is a very crucial step in assuring proper cooling of the customer's CPU. The shape of the cooler has a very interesting appeal to it, but the functionality with surrounding components presents a problem on some motherboards.

Featuring a huge heatsink, VIVO, HDTV support and DVI 2560x1600 output, is one of the most interesting 7600gt versions available on the market.

There are a handful of 8800GTX certified power supplies, today we take a look at one that's been hit with a bit of controversy recently and see if there's more to it than certain people think there is.

Like most products beginning with a lower case "i," the iCans are meant to be associated with the iPod, and primarily intended for use with similar portable media players. The primary selling points seem to be (in no particular order) portability, style, and sound quality. Let's see how well the iCans live up to their strong heritage and meet their apparent design objectives.

The CoolIT Freezone can cool so much better than any stock water cooling kit on the market. This unit is completely capable of cooling a processor, dual video cards, and chipset, AND any other blocks you want to throw at it.

Computer technology marches on and those of us who build and use our own machines see increasing power draws by a lot of the components we place inside them. Dual Core processors, SLI/Crossfire GPU configurations, multiple hard drives and so on all need stable and reliable power. It is no longer viable to just accept the PSU that comes with a case we may buy. When building your own computer you MUST take into account all the components you will be using, and buy a capable PSU. If you skimp on a PSU with a weak 12v rail when using high end GPU cards then problems will arise at some point, as this review has shown.
