Lian-Li PC-C32 ATX Case Review
Virtual-Hideout posted Lian-Li PC-C32 ATX Case Review

Despite this being a desktop or HTPC case, the PC-C32 is quite large. This is because it supports a full-size ATX motherboard and standard ATX PSU - no being stuck with a microATX motherboard or weird PSU form factor. The downside to this, is of course that the case isn't as slim as some others out there, and may not blend in with your HT setup. The dimensions of the case are 426 x 167 x 530mm or about 17" x 6.5" x 21" (WxHxD); for rackmount purposes this corresponds to a 4U size. (1U is about 1.75" thick) The depth in particular isn't well-shown on Lian-Li's site; with a depth of 21", you'll want to make sure that this case can fit where you want to put it!

Fanatec Headshot Controller Review
techPowerUp posted a review on the Fanatec Headshot Controller

The Fanatec Headshot Controller is a mouse and mousepad combination from German manufacturer Fanatec. Usually such a combo is a low quality product, but not in this case. We were surprised by the excellent build quality which is on par, if not better, with big names like Logitech and Microsoft. Also the mousepad has an incredibly smooth surface with almost no friction.

Saitek Cyborg Rumble Pad P3600 Review
DragonSteelMods posted a review on the Saitek Cyborg Rumble Pad P3600

With the Cyborg Rumble Pad, Saitek has attempted to make a gamepad that it truly compatible with every FPS game out there by the use of a button on the pad labeled FPS, when pressed it automatically programs the pad with the most common FPS game functions. The pad is like other Saitek pads essentially, but the 'Cyborg' naming comes in with a part of the controller they call the 'Cyborg Module', the left side of the pad features a section that pops out, it includes the analogue stick and the d-pad, the whole thing can be rotated 180 degrees so the user can decide where the stick should be. The Cyborg Rumble Rumble pad has quite a few other features as well, so read on to learn more about them, this is truly a very cool gamepad...

Apevia X-Jupiter Type G Tower Case Review
OCIA.net takes a look at the Apevia X-Jupiter Type G Tower Case in their latest review.

Along with the release of the mid-tower X-Jupiter Jr. comes the full tower aluminum X-Jupiter chassis. With more fans, more space and less weight it's like the little Junior grew up... and went on a diet.

OCZ Flex XLC PC2-6400 CL3 Review
DV Hardware posted OCZ Flex XLC PC2-6400 CL3 memory review

Eventually DDR3 memory will take over the memory market but it will still take a while before DDR3 memory adoption will rise - the price will have to go down first. One of the memory series you might want to consider if you're going to buy a high-performance memory kit today is OCZ's Flex XLC. In this review I'm taking a look at the 800MHz version which runs at CL3 timings. The DDR2 FlexXLC memory series from OCZ is designed for watercooled systems and features four products: 800MHz memory with 4-4-4-15 timings, 800MHz with 3-4-4-15 timings, 1150MHz with 5-5-5-18 timings and 1200MHz with 5-5-5-18 timings.

High-Speed DDR3 Overclocking and Review Series
Benchmark Reviews posted High-Speed DDR3 Overclocking and Review Series

Now that most manufacturers have tooled up for long-term DDR3 production, there are only a few companies still releasing high-performance system memory for the DDR2 platform. With the favored P35 and X38 chipsets already making waves, Intel is preparing for their upcoming launch of 4 series northbridge chipsets including the much anticipated X45. This news means that those initial DDR3 kits may as well be called generation one or some other name denoting obsolete equipment, because today Benchmark Reviews is revealing the new evolution in high-performance DDR3 kits. Our comparison review and overclocking series will feature all speeds of PC3 memory, from the outrageous XMP-enhanced high-speed 1866MHz DDR3 to the entry-level 1066MHz, and everything in-between.

Zalman Reserator XT Review
Overclockers Online has posted a new review on the Zalman Reserator XT

Zalman continues their reputation for quality products with the new Reserator XT. The Reserator line finally gets active cooling to compliment its passive cooling with positive results. The Reserator XT is built to be as quiet as possible, but those who don't mind the extra noise are still able to manually increase the fan and pump speed to squeeze a little more performance out of it. Zalman continues to bring top quality water cooling to inexperienced and experienced users, and the Reserator XT is no exception.

Cooler Master CM690 Chassis Review
OCIA.net takes a look at the Cooler Master CM690 Chassis in their latest review.

Cases are kind of an anomaly in the world of computer hardware. Some people won't pay more than $50 for a case because, all in all, it's just a metal box. Others pay $300+ for thorough cooling solutions, complete PC silence, or professional aluminum styling. There is yet another group, though: those who want flashy, bright, "gaming" cases, that look cool regardless of performance or noise. The various aspects and features of the case one chooses arguably tell a lot about their priorities and personality.

The TechZone has posted a review of the Trendnet TEW-633GR Wireless N Gigabit Router.

The Trendnet TEW-633GR Wireless N Gigabit Router is a solid product with solid performance, actually pushing its connection up to the 300 Mbps transfer rate promised on the box. The range is quite good, letting me stay connected even when I was half a block away from my house. The build quality and physical appearance are also much improved over the first router and we all know how important looks are these days.

Altec Lansing inMotion iMV712 Review
OCC has published a new review of the Altec Lansing inMotion iMV712

To play videos, it is necessary to make sure that your iPod is set video out to ON in the Video Settings menu. If this option is not selected the iPod will not transmit the video signal to the built-in LCD. Once properly configured, you will see that the Altec is capable of vibrant playback through its LCD. Aside from its ability to project the videos onto its own built-in LCD, the iMV712 can pass video through S-Video to a television. See in the bottom picture is a scene from Ghost Rider; the Altec delivers a smooth clear picture. Unfortunately, you can't disable the LCD while playing on the television.

Futurelooks checks out a great alternative to cheap computer speakers

[M-Audio, previously known as Midiman, is a company that typically provides a series of digital audio and MIDI solutions for “today’s electronic musicians and audio professionals.” While most of their line hits up the higher-end of the market, the Studiophile AV 20 speaker system is supposed to be more entry-level and more accessible by the average consumer. That’s not to say that it doesn’t bring anything to the table, though.
