At present, extended ATX cases are very limited and cost a pretty premium. Only a handful are available with the cheapest coming in around the $100 mark and it doesn't have near the storage or expansion capabilities. Anything offering the same features or close to that of the Whisper are going to run you $170 and more.

NVIDIA SLI Technology for Intel X58 Motherboards Review

The license key is an important feature since it is dependent on certification by NVIDIA, which includes verification of stability, power, compatibility, and layout. If a motherboard is certified, then NVIDIA's drivers will enable SLI functionality.NVIDIA SLI Technology for Intel X58 Motherboards Review
Some certified motherboards with native slot configurations will support 2-way and 3-way SLI configurations. In this case, native slot configurations consist of PCI-Express slots that are connected to Intel's X58 chipset. However, X58-based motherboards with NVIDIA's nForce 200 chip will be able to provide full-bandwidth x16 connections for 3-way SLI. These systems will also be able to support four x16 PCI-Express slots, creating maximum bandwidth for 3-way SLI systems with a dedicated PhysX GPU.

With the Silentuium T2 ECO 80 chassis, Arctic Cooling set out to target the green, quiet-computing market segment. While this market is showing growth lately, it's still a relatively small niche, and niche products are a little tricky to review.

For example, the quiet computing crowd is perfectly willing to tolerate higher temps and even lower performance in order to achieve a near silent system.

Swiftech has been a leading innovator in the computer cooling business almost from the very beginning. And by offering the computer enthusiast nothing but the best in quality and performance, they have earned themselves a reputation that's second to none among water cooling enthusiasts. Today we're going to be looking at their newest release in their water cooling line of products, the APOGEE Extreme Performance CPU Water block. The APOGEE GTZ replaces their out going APOGEE GTX water block and it's designed to offer the end-user a high performance solution to Swiftech’s own top model.Swiftech APOGEE GTZ Review
With water cooling considerably more than air cooling, enthusiasts are looking to get the most performance out of their hard earned dollar.

With version 12.0 of its popular file compression package, Corel has done a good job of targeting inexperienced digital media users. New compression algorithms, as well as support for new file formats, make it a much well-rounded package, and its largely unchanged interface means it remains the most user-friendly compression tool available. The photo management tools are reasonable, making it a from camera to grandma photo solution, but the image compression tools are nonsensical - attempting to compress already compressed images (JPEGs) yields no benefits. Another disappointment is that there is no shareware option - all you get for free is a 45-day trial. But compared to the likes of StuffIt Deluxe 12.0 and WinRAR, you get more for your money.

TheTechLounge posted a review on the Sapphire Radeon HD 4870 512MB TOXIC Video Card
I think it's worth everyone's wait for Toxic. As far as brandings go, anyway. But Sapphire puts so much effort into general improvements over the stock designs--which they have no small hand in-- that I have to wonder if they hold back just to make certain that their Toxic will be that much better. Maybe I'm giving too much away for an intro. Let's get back to boring stuff, like how HD 4000 changed every possible standard for pricing, and slammed into NVIDIA's market share so hard that they knocked stock out of 'em. People walking past their offices in California were picking it up on the streets as souvenirs, "I was there when HD 4000 was released!" HD 4870, the flagship, wasn't a hundred percent, though. It uses a lot of power, and makes a lot of noise. I don't expect the efficiency to change, but I, and silence enthusiasts everywhere, have been rubbing their hands in wait for Sapphire to throw in their characteristic blue into the equation.Sapphire Radeon HD 4870 512MB TOXIC Video Card Review

Sapphire Radeon HD 4850 X2 2GB Video Card Review
Elite Bastards posted a review on the Sapphire Radeon HD 4850 X2 2GB Video Card
When AMD launched their flagship Radeon HD 4870 X2 board, our eye was caught by the mention of a lower priced Radeon HD 4850 X2 board, designed to compete with NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 280 in both price and performance terms. We patiently waited and waited for said SKU to see the light of day, but nothing appeared - Until now. We get to take a look at Sapphire's exclusive Radeon HD 4850 X2 design which launches today, packing two RV770 cores and 2GB of GDDR3 memory to offer up what should be performance aplenty, and a much-needed challenger to the GeForce GTX 280.Sapphire Radeon HD 4850 X2 2GB Video Card Review
We've already mentioned that a reference Radeon HD 4850 X2 sticks with the clock speeds allocated to a reference Radeon HD 4850, and Sapphire's board sticks to these speeds, giving us clocks of 625MHz and 993MHz for core and memory speed respectively.
The first big surprise comes from taking a look at the length of this board's PCB - Put simply, it's bigger than both the Radeon HD 4870 X2 and GeForce GTX 280 at around 11.5 inches long (compared to 10.5" for those other parts). Make sure you have plenty of room in your case before picking up one of these monsters; we only just managed to squeeze it into our Cooler Master 690 chassis that we use for testing here.
The board also comes with a huge cooler strapped to it, sporting two fans to pull air into that large heatsink, although unfortunately due to the design of the board hot air can't be exhausted out of the rear of the chassis.

To further expand on the HD aspect of this card, Sapphire has included an accessory pack that includes several suites of software from Cyberlink as well as a licensed copy of the latest benchmark from Futuremark. With pricing suggested in the $350 range, this card is right around the price of two separate HD4850 cards.

In days gone by, power supplies used to be the most overlooked component in the computer. I remember my early days of PC building when it was all about finding the cheapest PSU you could get your hands on and looking for 'just enough' when it came to wattage. No more, however, as the power supply market has exploded. Now we see everything from those same cheap power supplies to $500 models pushing over 1300 watts of power. Just the other day I pulled a co-worker's computer apart. It's about three years old or so and it's running a 250W power supply. I didn't even know those existed anymore! But I digress.Silver Power SP-600A2C Review
What we have here today is a pretty 'middle of the road' entry from Tagan, in the form of the Silver Power 600W. Let's face it. Most of us don't need 1300 watts of power pulsing through our systems. Sure, it's nice to have the bragging rights that come along with that package, but why spend all that extra money when you could spend it on something else, like software or even extra memory?
So let's have a look at it, the Silver Power 600W, part of their Blue Lightning Series.

Portable storage has become pretty popular and there are several ways the average consumer can carry around a lot of data.

XFX GTX260 Black Edition Review
OCC has published a new review on the XFX GTX260 Black Edition
This Black Edition video card from XFX comes pre-overclocked. That's a good thing for the folks who either don't know how to overclock or the people who just want something better than the normal cards. Manufacturers know this since the bulk of the market is not this crowd. Now you have the gamers, enthusiasts and hardcore benchmark junkies that will make the card scream for mercy. Overclocking abilities on the factory clock speeds are many times a good indicator that the card will do well when the cooling is improved and the voltage mods have been put into place. So how well does this card from XFX do on air? Pretty well actually. On the Core speed only the EVGA GTX260 FTW had a higher GPU core and shader clock speed. When you add in the additional processing cores, the performance of the XFX Black addition is almost as good as the well clocked GTX280 in the comparison list. I was able to coax an additional 76MHz out of the GPU core,111MHz more out of the memory and 121MHz more from the shader cores. Add the additional clock speeds to a card that is already almost as fast as the GTX280 and you have a lot of performance to play with. This translates into additional frames per second for the gamer, additional points per day for the people running distributed computing projects and last but not least, reduced time to compress video when using the GPU.XFX GTX260 Black Edition Review

Benchmark Reviews posted a review on the ASUS Eee PC 1000H 160GB Netbook
Just over a year ago, Asus launched its Eee PC series of notebooks, prompting quick competition and innovation throughout the market. Today Benchmark Reviews looks at one of the newest additions to the Eee family, the Eee PC 1000H 160GB. Like the Eee PC 900 series, the 1000H is based on the Intel Atom platform, and features the Atom N270 processor. However, instead of an 8.9", the 1000H boasts a 10.2" screen as well as a 160GB hard drive. Perhaps the biggest improvement, though, is the use of a 6-cell battery. In this review, we'll take a closer at the Asus Eee 1000H netbook and find out how it compares to more conventional laptops.ASUS Eee PC 1000H 160GB Netbook Review
