Coolink Corator DS Sandwich Tower Cooler Review
ocaholic posted a review on the Coolink Corator DS Sandwich Tower Cooler

With the Corator DS, Coolink presents a sandwich tower cooler. Quite unconvenient these days is the use of a 120 mm fan than rotates with up to 1'700 rpm and therefore is quite loud. On the other hand there is the PWM functionality which should be able to regulate fan speeds to only 800 rpm. So is this a product worth buying?

Thermaltake Armor A90 Computer Case Review
Benchmark Reviews posted a review on the Thermaltake Armor A90 Computer Case

Thermaltake is one of those companies that constantly pumps out fresh designs, if there is a hole in the market then Thermaltake will be there. The current market trend in gaming cases that I have observed lately is an extravagant exterior, a painted interior and a bottom mounted PSU. Thermaltake have Introduced the Armor A90 VL90001W2Z Mid Tower Case into the enthusiast segment priced competitively at $79.99 and if you do your shopping you can get a better deal still.

Cooler Master USNA 95 Ultra Slim Notebook Adapter Review
ThinkComputers.org posted a review on the Cooler Master USNA 95 Ultra Slim Notebook Adapter

One thing that always seems to go on a laptop is the power adapter. I actually have 2 friends right now that have power adapters that are going bad. Replacing a power adapter is never fun and if you go directly through the manufacturer it can be quite costly. Today we will be taking a look at the Cooler Master USNA 95 Ultra Slim Notebook Adapter that is made for pretty much all laptops, has a USB power connector and let’s not forget but is the world’s smallest 95W adapter. Let’s take a look…

Cooler Master HAF Review
Modders-Inc posted a review on the Cooler Master HAF X

The HAF (High Air Flow)series has become one of the most desired cases among computer enthusiasts. First to come was the full tower HAF 932, which was followed by the mid tower version the HAF 922, both turning out to be top notch gaming cases, but it isn't stopping there.

Asus SBC-06D1S-U Slim External Blu-ray Combo Drive Review
OCIA.net has posted their review of the Asus SBC-06D1S-U Slim External Blu-ray Combo Drive

Today's review item is the Asus SBC-06D1S-U. The SBC-06D1S-U is a slim external USB 2.0 Blu-Ray combo drive; quite a mouthful for what we used to call a simple optical drive. Onboard the SBC-06D1S-U is all the functionality you would expect: DVD read and write, CD read and write, and Blu-Ray read. It's even plug and play and has some shiny blue lights.

BitFenix Colossus Review
KitGuru posted a review on the BitFenix Colossus

Many of you may not have heard of BitFenix, a relatively new company on the scene. If you have been following KitGuru over the last few months however, you will have noticed that we have been focusing on them quite a bit. With industry veterans such as Coco Lee (ex Coolermaster) making up their ranks, BitFenix has been working to create the perception that their new chassis designs will redefine the market. With the launch of the Colossus, we get to see if this bit of tech has got what it takes to attract the enthusiast hordes.

Thermalright Venomous X-RT Review
PureOverclock has published a review of the Thermalright Venomous X-RT CPU cooler

The Thermalright Venomous X-RT is one CPU cooler that claims to offer a successful combination of strong performance while maintaining low noise levels. We know that Thermalright has an excellent track record in producing successful heatsinks, so we're hoping they're up to the task since cool and quiet is not an easy thing to achieve, especially with an overclocked Core i7 monster that can produce some tremendous heat. That's exactly what we're using today as we find out if Thermalright can produce another winner in the Venomous X-RT.

Glacialtech Igloo 5760 PWM Heatsink Review
FrostyTech posted Glacialtech Igloo 5760 PWM Heatsink Review

Standing just 88mm tall, the Glacialtech Igloo 5760 PWM heatsink is relatively compact as modern CPU coolers go. Small through it may be, Glacialtech seem to have engineered it in just the right spots to manage the demanding peak thermal loads of top-end processors like the AMD Phenom II X4 (140W TDP) or Intel Core i7 960 (130W TDP) processor. Given this cooling threshold, the Igloo 5760 PWM should be well matched against the plethora of mainstream 65W & 95W TDP chips currently available from both Intel and AMD...
