Antec Fusion Black 430 Review
Bjorn3D take a look at the Antec Fusion Black 430

So you're into all sorts of media. Music, movies, TV, games, Internet, etc. The list goes on and on. You have your TiVo, your DVD player, your stereo and your computer for playing games and browsing the web. If there is any space left in that living room maybe you have a couch or perhaps your prefer a lawn chair to make space for the mini-fridge for those extra long gaming sessions. There has to be a better way to do this. What about using your computer as a DVD player / music player / TiVo? Ya know that little beige box that looks like the computer case time forgot. You wouldn't be caught dead with that thing in your living room. What if there was a case that blended into your current electronic equipment seamlessly? What's that you say? You like to relax on your recliner and control everything with a remote. Antec has you covered. With their new Fusion line of cases you get a media case with a built in VFD (Vacuum Fluorescent Display) that works under Windows Media center and looks so sleek you'll never guess it's a computer.

Gigabyte Odin GT 800W Power Supply Review
Bit-Tech published a review of Gigabyte's Odin GT 800W Power Supply

Gigabyte has done a fantastic job with its first power supply - it's extremely quiet, very well made, good looking and it has cool additions like molex quick release plugs, modularity, thermal probes, fan adapters, colour co-ordination (mostly) and software control. I'm genuinely finding it hard to criticise it but my natural gut reaction is "motherboard turned accessory maker - additional business rather than a primary one" which may be true, but it's not to the detriment of the product.

There are certainly a few things that need revisiting, including airflow and connector lengths, but it's nothing particularly serious. My only worry is long term reliability, but there's certainly no outright reason to worry and nothing has been reported so far. Just check what it has suits your needs and stick it on your want list if you're all ticks.
