Legit Reviews posted a review on the CoolIT Systems RAM Fan

'When using the CoolIT RAM Fan the surface temperature on the modules were found to be drastically cooler. What was strange is the fact that the outside module was now the hottest, but that is due to the angle on the RAM Fan. The RAM Fan blows air across the modules, so the outside module gets the least amount of airflow and the inside modules get the most as they are right under the fan...

PC Stats posted an Asus M2N32 WS Professional nForce 590 SLI Motherboard Review

For business applications which demand SCSI configurations, or professional grade network cards, the Asus M2N32 WS Professional has two PCI-X slots located just below the blue PCI Express x16 slot. Each 3.3V 64 bit PCI -X slot operates at 66 MHz, which means each can support a theoretical maximum bandwidth of 250MB/s. This works out to the same as a PCI Express x1 connection, but obviously the list of supported PCI-X devices is much more substantial than PCI Express x1 devices at this point in time.

Overclockers Online has posted a new review on the In Win F430 case

The F430 is an excellent case, boasting a bright red finish, and stylish air ducts. The whole case feels very rigid with no creaks or rattles, and it is a very pleasant case to work with because of the drive bay railing as well as the folded edges. The installation is straight forward, and the manual is very clearly laid out. The cooling performance is excellent. The only thing that separates this case and the truly high end computer cases is the lack of a motherboard tray and more space for internal hard drives. All in all, the F430 can pertain to anyone who has a passion for racing, because every time they would push the "START ENGINE" button, they would feel a rush of excitement.

Elite Bastards posted a Sapphire Radeon X1950 PRO AGP Review

The most obvious difference in Sapphire's Radeon X1950 PRO over a reference board is the inclusion of a RIALTO bridge chip on its rear (which we'll see in a moment), allowing for it the core to be used on an AGP interface. That aside, this board also finds itself with small core and memory clock speed boosts over reference speeds, sporting a core clock of 580MHz, with memory clocked at 700MHz - An increase of 5 and 10MHz respectively. To cap it all off, Sapphire have doubled the frame buffer of this board over the reference design, equipping it with 512MB of GDDR3 memory. Impressive stuff indeed.

Hardware-TEST has postet a review of AlienWare Aurora m9700

The Rolls Royce of laptops, this more or less covers the AlienWare Aurora m9700 laptop, that is supplied with 2x 7900GS in SLI mode.

Hardware-TEST has got a hold of an Aurora m9700 from American Alienware. Most hardware enthusiasts salivate at the thought of owning one, but the greater majority has never had actual physical contact with an Alienware. Said pleasure has been granted upon Hardware-TEST, and we're looking forward to reviewing the unit and ascertaining the true nature of the rig.

"Think a rewrite of the "bang for the buck" proverb is in order. " Bling, and not so much bang for the buck" would be a fair statement for the Aurora m9700. The Alienware name is a statement all on its own. I brought it to class, and not a moment passed before the comment "An Alienware, wow" was heard. It gives you are feeling most hardware enthusiasts would gladly pay money for.

As clearly stated in the graph, the Alienware Aurora m9700 is leading the pack by a serious margin. It is simply way better equipped for gaming than most other laptops. The other laptops have decent specifications and receive fair scores considering that they are laptops. In 3DMARK 03 the other laptops score about 8000, while the m9700 scores higher than 20,000, clearly separating it as an excellent achiever. The same trend is observed in all the other benchmark results.
