Mikhailtech has posted a Color Cases X-Wing 101 Case review

The other biggie is the top blowhole. Although such an addition is almost standard on all modded cases, what Color Cases did is a bit more unique. The mechanism is spring loaded and the blowhole pops up with the push of a button. This also activates the fan inside. Speaking of which, everything is pre-attached and the fan is protected by a plastic grill to keep any external objects from messing up the works. The fan points toward the rear so the case still looks nice up front. And all the better, as this slanted design prevents possible damage to the case and internal components (what would happen if you spilled pop into the blowhole?!?).

ipKonfig has posted a review on the X-Wing 101 Case

Here's a case that adds a nice touch to the office, with a touch of chrome and charcoal grey finish. It's not too often we see a case with this design, especially with an exhaust fan that pops up. But, as we all know, many cases come with more than just a front bezel and side panel.

The X-Wing 101 comes with two intakes side-mounted for good cooling performance. Up front we have two USB sockets, plus spots for mic and headphone hookup, and a few more goodies!

Tweakers Australia has posted a review on the Thermaltake HardCano 3 and 5 heatsinks

This is where the HardCano 3 has an advantage over the HardCano 2. Instead of plugging the onboard fan into the speed controller, you can actually connect ANY fan in your system that you want to control the speed of. Perhaps the most suitable fan would be from your CPU cooler, as some models have the ability to send you deaf when running at full speed. Thermaltake's Volcano 7+ came with the same speed controller, and was an instant hit - the only problem was you needed to open your case to change the speed. With the HardCano 3 this wont be a problem, as you can easily connect any heatsink fan to the s peed controller and conveniently change the speed from the front of your PC.

Accelenation has posted a GeForce4 review from a perspective of the average guy on the street.

When I finished looking at the card, I re-examined the box. I noticed something interesting – the box states a requirement for a 350Watt Power Supply. I know that most people buying a Ti 4400 are usually game junkies – but not everyone has a 350Watt power supply.

DeviantPC has posted a review on the Hercules Radeon 8500 DV.

This package is high quality and extrememly comprehensive. There is no better one card solution for audio/visual and 3D graphics needs and I would be a very happy person to have one of these cards for my own machine. There are only a couple of areas it's competing products have a slight edge, but overall, the Hercules Radeon 8500 DV stands above the rest, especially as an out of the box all in one product.
