XtReMoDs has posted a Computer Exhaust Systems RACHEL Review

With the increase in computer speeds more heat and noise being generated by your computer. As a result it may become undesirable to be anywhere near you're loud and hot computer. ComputerExhaust.com is developing a new technique where the hot air and some of the fan noise from your case is directed through a pipe that leads into your wall.

DeviantPC has posted a review on the MSI K7N2G-L (IGP Integrated graphics)

NVIDIA have proved beyond doubt that the nForce 2 platform is an ideal contender for the AMD performance crown. They have now shown that the IGP variant is an ideal contender for mid-range and business systems looking for that extra bit of performance.

Adrian's Rojak Pot has posted a review on the ABIT NF7-S nForce2 motherboard

ABIT has been touting its 3-phase switching voltage regulator as superior to the 2-phase power solution used by some of the other manufacturers. Well, in a way, it is superior. A 3-phase voltage regulator will run much cooler than a 2-phase voltage regulator since the workload is divided into three phases or power channels, instead of just two. However, whether they improve stability or not depends on whether there's sufficient capacitance.

It could very well be just another marketing ploy, feeding off a need to cut costs in capacitors. This is because the more phases the switching voltage regulator has, the smoother the flow of power. In a two-phase system, larger capacitors are used to even out the flow of power. Because the three phase system itself provides a smoother flow of power, less capacitance is actually required for a stable power supply. Therefore, ABIT may have taken the 3-phase road to cut costs and not to improve stability. Let's take a look...
