Logitech G13 Gameboard Review
Everything USB posted Logitech G13 Gameboard review

PC gaming has had a bit of a mixed history with initial gaming input starting at game pads, moving to keyboards, then to mice, then back to game pads and finally back to both keyboard and mouse combinations. Today I explore Logitech's answer to all of my gaming dilemmas with a dedicated gameboard that can tie all these inputs together into one neat, gamer focused package and hopefully enable you to score beyond your normal ability. Read on for the full Logitech G13 gameboard review.

Noctua NH-C12P SE (1366) Review
Bjorn3D takes a look at the Noctua NH-C12P SE (1366).

There comes a time in every reviewers life when they get swamped, it's just part of the process. Recently we got 4 CPU coolers that came in on the same truck. Quite the surprise to say the least. We saved the best for last, the Noctua NH-C12P SE 1366. A cooler that rivals the legendary TRUE 120. We wanted to see just how much it rivals the TRUE 120 on a level playing field so we're going to use the Noctua fans that came with the NH-C12P on the TRUE 120 and put them head to head on the Core i7 965 Extreme and see which one stays on Quadzilla. Searching for the best air cooling alternatives has been a long road and one with no visible end. We're about to switch back to water cooling on the test rig because i7 reviewing has slowed down enough to dip below the insanity level. In the mean time lets get back to the Noctua NH-C12P revisit.

Antec Mini-P180 Advanced Mini Tower Review
HotHardware.com posted a review on the Antec Mini-P180 Advanced Mini Tower

Finding the right chassis for a system build is like setting up the foundation before building out the design of your computer and working your craftsmanship into the intricate details of component selection and configuration. Start with a good foundation that caters to your build requirements and you're bound to have a better overall end result when you hit the power switch to boot up for the first time. And though the average enthusiast might choose a larger full tower case with real estate to spare, for many there is also beauty in smaller, more space-efficient designs. We've covered our share of monster "gaming cases" here at HotHardware but we felt it was high time to look at something a bit more diminutive.

Thus, we reached out to Antec to provide us with their smaller-sized version of their P180, titled not surprisingly, the Mini-P180. The Performance One series of cases has met with many favorable reviews, and combined with our own experience with their gaming cases, the Three Hundred and Nine Hundred, we figured that Antec could come through again.

Corsair Cooling ICE T30 System review
Driverheaven posted a review on the Corsair Cooling ICE T30 System

Corsair are well known for their excellent performance memory, rugged flash drives and in recent times have released a number of award winning PSUs. They have also dabbled in the cooling market previously with the Nautilus 500 which was the easiest water-cooling product to install at the time of release. Things have been quiet on the cooling front since then but it seems that the Corsair engineers have been allowed to have a little fun, the result of which we have for review today. The Corsair Cooling ICE T30 is the most extreme memory cooler available, but just how high will it allow us to push modules, today we find out.

MSI Eclipse SLI X58 LGA 1366 Motherboard Review
PC Perspective posted a review on the MSI Eclipse SLI X58 LGA 1366 Motherboard

Today we have MSI's flagship X58 motherboard on our test bench - the MSI Eclipse SLI. Several weeks ago, we evaluated the MSI X58 Platinum, which seemed to be geared toward gaming enthusiasts, but not necessarily those looking for overall performance increases in their PCs. Will the Eclipse SLI follow in the X58 Platinum's footsteps or create a new path with more performance gains in other areas than gaming?

Lenovo ThinkPad W700 reviewed
ITreviewed posted a review on the Lenovo ThinkPad W700

Lenovo has engineered a new breed of mobile workstation with the ThinkPad W700. No other PC manufacturer has a mobile workstation that delivers the sheer power, performance and cutting-edge innovation that Lenovo has packed into this beast. The mobile workstation flat out delivers the performance demanding users require at the desk as well as in the field, in a solution that isn't outrageously heavy. Packed for extreme performance, the mobile workstation is a serious piece of kit that should be treated as such. There are much better looking multimedia systems from the likes of Alienware, Dell and HP that are better suited to home use, but the ThinkPad W700 is built for business. It includes almost everything you could ever want from a laptop (except for built in eSATA and 3G), and is supported by some of the best system management utilities in the market. My biggest gripes were build quality and the brightness of the screen, which are totally outclassed by Apple's MacBook Pro.

Thermaltake BigTyp14 CPU Cooler Review
TechwareLabs has published a review of the Thermaltake BigTyp14 CPU Cooler

Are you tired of that old heatsink? Is your CPU overheating or are just looking for something snazzy to be placed on your motherboard? Well, maybe you should take a peak at Thermaltake's Big Typ 14Pro. Thermaltake's heatsinks have been winning armloads of awards for quite a few years now. If the massive 140mm fan doesn't get your attention, then maybe the copper heatpipes and the bright blue LED's will.

Blackberry Storm 9530 Review
OCModShop posted a review on the Blackberry Storm 9530

With the Storm, you certainly get a lot of functionality that Apple either ignored or decided we weren't ready for some functions and copy/paste most notably. Windows Mobile devices have included most of the capabilities of the Storm for a long while, but minus the tremendous connectedness of a Blackberry. Going from a WinMo phone to a Storm is pretty simple once you learn that it's a different universe and get the hang of the tools. I have a single friend with a G1, so I can't be too specific about how it measures up I have used it for about 15 minutes and it feels good, but I much prefer the size and feel of the Storm.
