Sapphire Toxic Radeon HD4850 Videocard Review
Tweaknews.net posted a review on the Sapphire Toxic Radeon HD4850 Videocard

Overall, Sapphire's attempt to make an already fast card pack even more punch while keeping it cool and quiet can easily be summed to be a success. Sapphire's TOXIC HD4850 version blends a good amount of looking cool while running remarkably cool as well.

Swiftech MCP655 (adjustable) Pump Review
Bjorn3D looks at the Swiftech MCP655 (adjustable) Pump.

Central Processing Units tend to run really hot when you're overclocking. There are some really good air cooling solutions available out there, but for some of us it's just not good enough. Wanting to squeeze every last drop of performance out of a piece of equipment drives us. Running thermoelectric solutions leads to really exhaustive moisture prevention control methods that most of us just don't want to deal with. A viable alternative to air cooling and thermoelectric cooling is water cooling.

Water cooling is a little more expensive than air cooling, but with that extra expense comes extra performance. Having tested a lot of 'out of the box' solutions, we've never found an out of the box solution that can match the performance of a 'Do it Yourself' water cooling setup. One of the most critical components of water cooling is the pump. Too small of a pump and the coolant moves too slowly and heat builds up. Too large a pump and the water moves too fast and the radiator doesn't get a chance to remove the heat. So how do you find a pump that fits your needs without going through a stack of pumps?

Swiftech solves that dilemma with the MCP655 12v adjustable pump. Capable of blasting 1200 L/hr through your cooling system, you have the capability to scale that down to meet your specific needs.

Virtual-Hideout posted Cooler Master V8 CPU Cooler Review

Like many of the other companies finding reviews on our pages lately, Cooler master's claims to fame come from eternally supporting the enthusiast edge of the industry. Though their start was found in cooling products, Cooler Master went on to begin producing branded fans, heatsinks, power supplies, and even liquid cooling systems. In that vein, the V8 is more or less a rectification to this departure - a step by Cooler Master to return themselves into the realm of performance cooling. With the capacity to blow away almost 180w of heat, the V8 has the potential to slide Cooler Master back up into the echelons of performance cooling, though it may well have a few hindrances along the way. With that said, it's time to see what this latest offering can do.
