A+ Case Twin Engine / XCLIO A380 Review
techPowerUp! posted a new review on the A+ Case Twin Engine / XCLIO A380

If we could describe the XLCIO A380, which is identical to the A+Case Twin Engine, with one word it would be: monstrous. Not because of looks, as it looks incredibly sleek. The case sports two huge 25 cm fans which light up and are a definitely a huge attraction at LAN parties. Big fans don't have to be loud - the included fan controllers allow you to fine tune the fan speed and noise as needed. Even at maximum speed the fan noise of this $110 case is barely audible.

Cooler Master Hyper TX HSF Review
3D Game Man posted a review on the Cooler Master Hyper TX HSF

I'm sure you've heard of the phrase "Less is more"? Cooler Master has achieved just that. From the popular Hyper 6 series comes the Hyper TX series. This new cooler is not only more silent, with a smaller fan, but it also uses less heatpipes to provide better , more stable cooling solution. For the Hyper TX series, we provide two coolers supporting AMD AM2 and Intel Core 2 Dual.

SteelSound 5Hv2 Professional Gaming Headset Review
ThinkComputers.org posted a review on the SteelSound 5Hv2 Professional Gaming Headset

SteelSeries is well know throughout the competitive PC gaming community as company dedicated to manufacturing the highest quality accessories and peripherals. Starting with high performance mouse pads, SteelSeries moved on to professional grade headsets and keyboards. The Steelsound 5H was Steel Series' first attempt at a gaming headset, and it proved to be quite a learning experience. SteelSeries was forced to recall two production batches due to wiring problems for the ear cups and microphone. So, after several major changes and upgrades, SteelSeries is back and better than ever with the SteelSound 5Hv2 professional gaming headset.

Why iPod and Zune could Kill Blu-ray, HD DVD & even The DVD
The TechZone has posted an article about iPod and Zune

Are we assisting to the birth of the real battle for the next generation of movies for our home theaters? With the announcement by Apple of the availability of movies on their itune library and the release this fall of the Zune from Microsoft, we have the right to believe so. Other big players, like Amazon, are already going after the movie downloading market which seems to be a very strong social trend. Blu-ray and HD DVD is not a social trend. It is something built from scratch by audio-video manufacturers. Those formats are also for big technology fans with a lot of money in their pockets.

The Sorry State of Operating Systems
OSWeekly.com looked at the sorry state of Operating Systems

If you mention the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) to a Windows user, they will probably begin to sigh and groan, and they may even shudder at the very thought of seeing one of these horrific images on their computer monitor. If you haven't experienced a Blue Screen of Death yet, then you're not a true Windows user.

Democracy Player: A Superior Multimedia Alternative to iTunes on Linux
Mad Penguin posted a review on Democracy Player

Linux users have found their options limited, as iTunes is to this very day still not available on the Linux platform natively. Apple is foolish for ignoring this, but we believe that we have located a better alternative in the video podcast realm than what iTunes was offering anyway - Democracy Player.

Origen AE X11 HTPC Enclosure Review
HEXUS posted a review on the Origen AE X11 HTPC Enclosure

With a delivered price of £180 there is no doubt that Origen AE positions it in the upper-end of the HTPC market. Korean-designed, Chinese-manufactured, the X11 certainly has some stiff competition from cheaper models on the market nowadays, so does it hold its own or is it a damp squib?

If you need to have multiple removable hard drives, the Icy Dock MB453SPF SATA enclosure works great, providing zero reduction in data
transfer speed as compared to being directly wired to the SATA controller. There is nothing flashy about this unit, and it is all business when it comes to appearance and performance.
