Thermaltake Contac 29 Cooler Review
KitGuru.net posted a review on the Thermaltake Contac 29 Cooler

We know KitGuru readers love good coolers – our review of the Noctua Austrian Sandwich (NH D14) has been read by over 60,000 people in the last three weeks. That said, we also know that a substantial portion of that readership couldn’t afford to pay almost £70 for pride of ownership. It is a lot of dosh.

To cater to a broader market today we are going to be looking at the critically acclaimed Thermaltake Contac 29 Direct which retails at a very competitive £20 inc vat in the UK.

Sapphire HD5670 Ultimate Edition Review
KitGuru posted a review on the Sapphire HD5670 Ultimate Edition

We have reviewed many Sapphire graphics cards on KitGuru over the last month and we have found them all worthy of serious consideration in their respective sectors. They often include some of the finest cooling solutions and we have been particularly enamoured with their silent range of products- such as the HD5550 Ultimate.

Today we are looking at a higher specification model, the HD5670 Ultimate Edition which comprises a meaty passive cooling solution.

How To Destroy Your PC in 5 Easy Steps
BURNED iN shows you how to destroy your PC in 5 easy steps

The Internet is littered with tips and tricks on how to keep your rig safe from certain calamities, so with all the information that's out there, why then are PC repair shops busier than ever fixing busted systems? Maybe the answer lies in how the information is presented. We don't claim to be experts in psychology, but just from our own personal observations, it would seem that people are contrary by nature. Telling a child not to touch an object is a surefire way of making sure it will soon have their fingerprints all over it, and in that same vein, perhaps instructing PC users how to avoid falling prey to common computing pitfalls has the exact opposite effect we're shooting for.

To put our theory to the test, we're posting this guide that doesn't tell you how to surf safely or otherwise keep your PC in pristine shape, but outlines exactly what you should do if you want to push your system to the brink of failure, and beyond. Let the fun begin.

Verizon Wireless LG Fathom Review
TestFreaks posted a review on the Verizon Wireless LG Fathom

Today for review I’ve got the LG Fathom for the Verizon wireless network. It’s a nice smart phone that I’ve had to pleasure to test for the last week or so and I’ve come to like it quite a bit really. It’s a Windows Mobile phone running a nice fast processor that can easily keep up with everything you’re doing. Call quality is fine, and internet speeds are nice and fast. Overall it’s not a bad phone but it just feels like it’s missing something and I can’t quite put my finger on it…
