With the Toughpower 850W PSU, Thermaltake is targeting the very top of the enthusiast/gamer market. Four very strong +12V rails and native support for four graphics cards and eight SATA drives is certainly not the norm and will almost surely be embraced by its eager, albeit small, target market. The 850W PSU should prove to be a worthy addition to the very competent Toughpower line.

Foxconn C51XEM2AA-8EKRS2H nForce 590 SLI AMD Socket AM2 Motherboard OC Review
Two 16x PCI express Slots, four DDR2-800 Slots up to 8 GB memory, six S-ATA II ports, ten USB 2.0 ports, two 1 Gigabit LAN connectors and wonderful OC features is not my list of wishes for Christmas, but rather the excellent equipment of the new Foxconn C51XEM2AA-8EKRS2H Socket AM2 motherboard. Without anticipating the result, this Socket AM2 board is a dream for overclocker, because this mainboard has as many OC options, that it would be possible to write dozens of OC guides. And overclocking an AMD Athlon 64 3000+ processor to 3000 MHz is really nice
M-Audio Revolution 5.1
M-Audio launched a remake of the Revolution 7.1 - Revolution5.1. Revolution7.1 was the first multimedia card to support 7.1-channel sound. Like most products with a new super feature, it was quickly pushed out of sight by new competing products with better design. And this card was put up on the board of honor of the company, labeled "we were the first".
Sony BWU-100A Blu-ray Recordable Drive
Sony's new BWU-100A Blu-ray drive for the PC can burn DVDs and CDs as well as Blu-ray discs, and it can play back Blu-ray movies. But at a whopping $750, is the price worth the convenience?

When Zalman and Fatal1ty team up, you expect some special results. The FC-ZV9 graphics card cooler combines good cooling performance, great looks and wide compatibility into a product that any gamer would be proud to have in their case.

FSP FX700-GLN Epsilon & Thermaltake Toughpower 650
600 to 700W units seem to be the sweet spot for high end systems, they offer enough headroom for some serious overclocking, but not so much so that the extra premium for the unit was an absolute waste of money (1kw units anyone?).
ATI All-in-Wonder Radeon X1900 Videocard Review @ Tweaknews.net
This card, much like its older brothers, is an excellent all around card for a user needing an multimedia card that can also be used for gaming. To boil it down, this card has it all. It is too bad that this will be the last of a breed that has dominated the multimedia market with such force that all rivals were laughed off of the market before they even left the white paper.
