OCIA.net takes a look at the Zalman Fatal1ty FC-ZE1 Champ1on Series Aluminum Case in their latest review.

I will be the first to admit that most all of the Fatal1ty products I have seen to date look pretty sweet, but many end users have complained about the hefty premium price tag put on these items and cannot justify spending the extra money. Today I will be looking at the Zalman Fatal1ty FC-ZE1 Champ1on Series Aluminum Case... definitely a flashy looking system, but does it warrant the near $360 asking price?

CDR-Zone.com has been busy again, this time using their knowledge of USB drives to produce a indepth review of the Verbatim Store N Go High speed USB 2 drive.

I'm very impressed by Zalman's newest PSU offering. The ZM600-HP seems to deliver the goods everywhere one looks. The heatpipe feature keeps it running cool and the LEDs keep it looking cool. This PSU has enough power to supply all but the most extreme systems with ease. Outstanding stability and efficiency are complimented by near-silent operation and a pleasing blue glow.

Microsoft released their external HD-DVD drive for the Xbox 360 this week with a hidden surprise: it works on your PC!

Crucial recently became 10 years old and they celebrated their 10th anniversary with special chocolate modules (yes, memory modules can can be tasty) and with special 10th Anniversary 1GB PC2-5300/DDR2-667 CL3 memory modules. PC2-5300 does not sound very fast, but sometimes the test results differs from the first impression.

We take a look at one of the few nForce 590 boards to support the Core 2 CPU. With the nForce 600 series coming up, is it worth investing in an nForce 590 board?

Jumping onto the DirectX 10 bandwagon already? Well, if you're one of those who can afford it, NVIDIA's GeForce 8 series does offer a substantial boost even for existing games. Read on as we take a look at Leadtek's new GeForce 8800 GTS and its bundle in a shiny new box.

OCZ's second introduction of a tiny micro flash drive is indeed another winner. It is small, it is robust, and best of all, it is incredibly handy. Carrying your car keys around is twice as hard as carrying this six gram monster around. That is right, it weighs six grams which is lighter than a soda cracker.

OCIA.net takes a look at the NZXT Adamas Aluminum Chassis in their latest review.

Their first offering, the Guardian midtower case, had a revolutionary look (many said it resembled a Transformer) and was an instant hit. NZXT has expanded on their Crafted Series to include four other cases and more recently introduced the Classic Series which consists of the Trinity, Lexa and the newest addition, the Adamas.

Almost every gaming enthusiast has been waiting for a decent Motherboard chipset offering from NVIDIA supporting the latest performance king, the Intel Core 2 Duo, dual x16 PCI-E lanes for Quad SLI support (Quintessential for the High Def Gamers) and official SLI support.

Guru3D brings you a review on three GeForce 8800 products today. Not only that, they have been tested on the hottest new enthusiast nForce mainboard to date, the nForce 680i SLI. The cards reviewed are:

nVidia is launching their newest GPU's into the wild today - our first look is at the impressive MSI GeForce 8800GTS!

The 24" monitor is a gamer's best friend, providing awesome picture quality and a great complement to a high-end graphics card. Can this Benq model beat out competition from Dell and Samsung to become the one to buy? We find out.

Logitech is known for its mice and keyboard combos and I recently got the chance to try the Logitech diNovo Media Desktop laser. Logitech's latest and greatest is a Bluetooth set that consists of 5 pieces and includes: The Media Pad, the diNovo keyboard, MX1000 laser mouse for Bluetooth, recharging station and Bluetooth USB mini receiver.

With this case we think Antec has outdone themselves again. When they released the P180, I figured that they had one of the best functional and best looking cases released in the past few years. The clean look and the external arrangement was definitely a keeper. But after seeing the Nine Hundred on the Antec site, it was one I had to get and review for our readers. Does the Nine Hundred live up to my self imposed hype? Are we just harping on about an otherwise normal, boring case? Lets check it out.

Thermaltake's Tide Water does a great job of cooling the GPU on this video card, and can do it very quietly. Currently available in the $55 to $60 US range, you can have liquid cooling for your GPU at a price only moderately higher than some high-end air cooling solutions. The Tide Water has a good design and is well executed. It's easy to install and you can be up and running in around 30 minutes.

ThermalTake took one of the best cases on the market, and only upgraded it with a component that made a difference. The liquid cooling system included with the Kandalf LCS proves to be a great performer, while not adding too much complexity.

Once every couple of years a product comes along which can be called revolutionary, and has the ability to upset the market. Corsair brought to the market an entirely new line of memory products, called the Dominator series, with exactly this purpose in mind: dominate the high end memory market. In this review Madshrimps will try to find out what sets apart this memory, and if it really can be called revolutionary.

To help solve this problem Cooler Master has developed a VGA water cooling solution that will remedy the heat problem as well as eliminate the noise problem. Cooler Master's Aquagate VIVA VGA cooling is an all-in-one sealed unit that offers the added benefit of being able to convert over to a CPU water cooling unit if the end-user so sees fit.

As the basis for a HTPC, this is an excellent choice. The board was designed to be used as a stable platform for desktop and HTPC use and it does this job with aplomb. I feel that anyone looking for an inexpensive motherboard for a HTPC will find this board offers everything they are looking for, including the low price
