ASUS Rampage II Extreme Review
InsideHW.com has reviewed ASUS Rampage II Extreme motherboard

Last time when we tested Intel Core i7 CPU (Nehalem) we used Intel DX58SO Smackover motherboard. This time we will test motherboard designed for overclokers that want to squeeze maximum out of their Nehalem CPU. Motherboard is manufactured by ASUS and it belongs to ROG (Republic Of Gamers) series. According to ASUS reputation this motherboard dictates new standards when it comes to Intel Core i7 motherboards. Despite dimensions of motherboard packaging itself, label "Designed for Overlocking" also suggests that this package holds something special inside.

In Win Commander 1200W PSU Review
Driverheaven posted a review on the In Win Commander 1200W PSU

In Win were established back in 1986 and they never tried to diversify beyond designing and building computer cases. Merely a few months ago the company released a long line of high performance PSUs, the Commander series. Today we take a look at the high end 1200w model.

Vizo Propeller Dual Fan Card System Cooler Review
Overclockers Online posted a review on the Vizo Propeller Dual Fan Card System Cooler

I was pleased with the performance of the Vizo Propeller. Extra cooling never hurts, especially when it is quiet. Although my video card's temperatures did not show any noticeable drop in temperature, the overall case temperature dropped significantly.

Iiyama ProLite E2208HDS - 22in Full HD LCD
bit-tech published a review of the Iiyama ProLite E2208HDS - 22in Full HD LCD

In terms of image enhancement features, Iiyama has seen fit to include both dynamic contrast and OptiColor digital colour circuitry. The former is probably a little better than most implementations, but it's still of marginal value, tending to crush detail in darker movie and gaming scenes. The latter, meanwhile, does little more than offer a menu of ostensibly enhanced preset contrast settings, none of them superior to the default setting.

All of which leaves us to conclude that Iiyama's new 1080p 22-incher is a thoroughly welcome addition to the 22-inch market. Yes, it comes with the usual image quality baggage that afflicts every TN panel. But 1,920 x 1,080 pixels is a lot for the money. It's also very, very nearly as good as Viewsonic's slightly more expensive 1080p 22-inch monitor, the VX2260WM, which we will be publishing our review on very soon.

The Viewsonic's black tones and dynamic contrast circuitry are probably better, but there is awfully little in it. Unless you need that HDMI port, therefore, you may feel little compunction to pay more. Certainly, anyone looking to bag a monitor below the £150 price point should put Iiyama's new HD panel right at the top of their list.
