Arctic Liquid Freezer 240 CPU Watercooler Review

The Arctic Liquid Freezer 240 is an all-in-one CPU water cooling solution built around a large 240mm-sized aluminum heat exchanger that's well suited to full tower PC cases. The unit ships four 120mm fans which pretty much assures it's going to A) perform well, and B) be kind of loud at full tilt. Like many other CPU liquid cooling systems in the wild, the Liquid Freezer 240 is built by Asetek, which actually imbues a healthy measure of confidence in its long term reliability in our books.

The Liquid Freezer 240 ships with four 120mm fans mounted in a push-pull configuration on either side of the 49mm thick aluminum heat exchanger. The pump head/waterblock is built on a successful foundation that many generations of micro skived copper base plates have laid down, and again, makes use of proven Asetek metal mounting bracket design. The aluminum heat exchanger is connected to the waterblock by a 30cm length of flexible 10.5mm OD rubber tubing. The hoses don't swivel at the waterblock to make routing tubes easier, but I think this is a better design choice as it reduces the chance of coolant leaks.

Arctic's Liquid Freezer 240 ships fully assembled, plumbed and filled. The whole system weighs around 1190grams and installs onto Intel socket LGA115x/2011(-3) processors and AMD socket AM2/AM3/FM1/FM2 CPUs. The four 120mm PWM fans operate at 1350-500RPM and feature 54mm long Y-splitter power leads, which is kind of nice.

Intel Bean Canyon NUC Review

Intel has embraced small form factor systems for many years. Whether it be high-end mini-PCs like the Hades Canyon NUC, complete with discrete graphics for gamers, or ultra-tiny devices like the Compute Card, Intel has consistently pushed small form factor markets forward, for just about as long as ‘performance per watt’ has been a thing.

The Hades Canyon NUC and Compute Card target some rather niche markets, however. For more mainstream, everyday computing applications, Intel’s standard 4"x4” NUC (Next Unit of Computing) systems are much more apropos, and the Intel NUC8i7BEH we’ll be showing you here may just be the best all-around unit yet...

Why we love the massive (but featherlight) LG gram 17

Starting with the Dell XPS 13 from a few years ago, we've witnessed a trend in which manufacturers deliver traditionally larger laptops in smaller form factors. Companies have been able to do this by shrinking the display bezels, which results in a smaller keyboard deck to match. This trend has happened with 13-, 14-, and 15-inch laptops, and for the first time, we're starting to see it with 17-inch behemoths.

The LG gram 17 — as its name implies — is both an incredibly light and surprisingly small full-fledged 17-inch Ultrabook. It gets most of the basics right, too, although there are a few odd design choices and compromises. Also, exactly who should buy it?
