So you just bought a Radeon X1900 XT or XTX and you're looking for a high-end cooler that will do a good job of keeping your graphics card cool but will do so while running nearly silently?

S3 graphics has been making a slow, sustained push for respectability since the arrival of its first Chrome-series graphics processors in 2003. That push continued with the introduction of the updated Chrome S27 GPU last fall, and at that time, S3 hinted at a new wrinkle in its plans. Like ATI and NVIDIA, S3 would be introducing a multi-card graphics capability, dubbed MultiChrome. We got a brief preview of MultiChrome in action back in November, but S3 has been quietly preparing the tech for prime time since then.

OCIA.net takes a look at the SunbeamTech Nuuo 550w PSU in their latest review.

The Nuuo 550 was introduced last fall. It was the first modular PSU to be certified by nVidia for use with SLI. With the mad rush by all PSU manufacturers to get out new models of power supplies suitable for use with the power hungry NF4 Ultra SLI chipset and multiple video cards, many buyers may have overlooked Sunbeam's offering. Now that things have settled down some, and SLI is reality, with modular construction and it's very attractive price, the Nuuo 550 should stand out as a serious consideration.

When we reviewed Logitech?s MX610 earlier this month, we didn?t encounter many anomalies that would prevent us from recommending the mouse. In fact, the MX610 performed exceptionally well, and hosted new features that aren?t available on any other mouse in the market, clearly making it a latest contender in the laser mice series.

Delving briefly into the OMEN CrossFire's specs, you'll note this system is built around ATI's recently released CrossFire Xpress 3200 chipset, on an Asus motherboard, driven by a highly overclocked Athlon 64 FX-60 at 2.95GHz guaranteed stable and warranted from the factory for 1 to 3 years.

Asus gives the T2300 Core-Duo CPU some style in a small package. The W5F is a ultra-portable laptop that is sure to please those looking to be mobile and not compromise on looks or performance.

Diamond Multimedia is a company some of you PC Enthusiast veterans may remember. From my earlier PC owning days, the first add-on graphics card I purchased was a Diamond Monster 3D II 3DFX Voodoo2 8MB. Also way back when this site was called ?3D Spotlight? we reviewed some of their most outstanding products like Voodoo and Rendition-based graphics cards, the Diamond Rio 500, and the Monster Sound soundcards. Since those days they have had a quite an interesting ride. That is no longer important though, the brand is back, and they are giving it another shot with a complete product range.

For the faint of heart that dont like messing with onboard voltages or for someone stuck with no onboard voltages, OCZ introduces their high speed modules that work at standard voltages.

When NVIDIA launched their mid-range GeForce 7600 GT part at CeBIT in Hannover, ATI's response was to 'soft launch' a twelve pipeline version of their R520 core - The Radeon X1800 GTO. Now, retail boards are readily available, so today Elite Bastards have taken a look at just one such part, courtesy of PowerColor.

The DFI LAN Party CFX3200 DR is the second motherboard based on the ATI CrossFire CFX3200 chipset which offers the latest technological feature such as dual x16 PCI Express Lane capability relying on just one chipset. Like the ASUS A8R32 MVP Deluxe we have reviewed just a short while ago, it utilizes the ULI M1575 Southbridge. We take a look at what this board offers in terms of performance, features and overclockability.

Spire is no stranger when it comes to cooling solutions and definitely has the knowledge to create and supply decent cooling products. The CoolGate CPU cooler is specifically designed for high performance applications. It uses vertical dual heatpipes to transport heat away from the CPU. The concept of heatpipes has become quite interesting for any cooling application. Spire has adopted this technology to build a new range of high performance CPU coolers, and the CoolGate fits perfectly into that picture. The CoolGate CPU cooler applies heatpipe technology to elevate its cooling performance to the next level.

Our friends at HKEPC Hardware have thrown up their review of Intel's T2600 Core Duo processor running at 2.16GHz, with a ATI Radeon X1900 XT CrossFire set up.

ECS refreshes the 945G-M3 to ride on the Viiv bandwagon, but is it really worth it to jump onto the whole Viiv hype? Early adopters will definitely want to give it a look or two, but we find out that this little gem of a board isn't really about the Viiv at all. Find out more inside.

If your system can effectively utilise 1GHz-rated DDR2, and it's a big if, OCZ's 2GByte pack should be at the top of your shortlist. Summing it up in a word is easy enough. That word is extreme.

Following on from the first part of their XFX GeForce 7300 GS review earlier this week, which focused on performance in benchmarks compared to its predecessor the GeForce 6200, Elite Bastards now move on to look at how this part fares in real-world gaming situations.

I am pretty sure that you are aware of ASUS reputation when if comes to the stability of their motherboards or the speed and high quality when it comes to their graphic cards, but you may not be aware of their reputation for making high performance cooling solutions. If you are keen to their cooling products, then one product that may come to mind is the Star Ice.

Today we take a look at a new uniquely designed heatsink/fan combo from Spire Coolers. The Verticool II is made of an all copper heatsink with dual copper heatpipes leading up to forty five aluminum micro-fins providing the optimal cooling configuration. The Verticool II is also capable of fitting nearly every processor available on the market today.

Today, we?re introducing a 2 GB dual channel memory kit by Mushkin to you. Mushkin, mostly recognized in the overclocker?s scene for high-speed memory modules like the ?HighPerformance Level II? series, offers various memory kits for different target groups. With the ?Redline? series, Mushkin targets the more average user - who still requests good performance and high stability, but without any need for extreme overclocking. We?ve had such a kit, the Mushkin EM3200 DDR 2x 1GB DC, at our hands for testing. Read on to see how it performed.

While the Radeon X1900 XTX is one terrific performer, one of the chief criticisms that's been directed at retail cards is that they run too loud, especially in comparison to NVIDIA's GeForce 7900 GTX. To help combat the noise issue, as well as deal with heat, Sapphire has elected to use a liquid-based cooler from Thermaltake on the Blizzard Radeon X1900 XTX. In addition, it also boasts factory overclocked speeds for the GPU and memory. But does everything work as Sapphire advertises? Let's find out!
