FIC's solution based on ATI's RS350 chipset @ Viper Lair
"The P4M-RS350 itself is a complete
package that gives you the ability to upgrade the graphics when
you have the money to do so. It carries competent performance and
enough onboard solutions that voids the fact there is only 3 PCI
slots available."

OCLabs B3 PlexyBlock Review
@ PCmoddingmy

"My first
impression with this OCLabs B3 PlexyBlock is that it is very small
when compared with other water cooling water blocks out in the
market. This B3 PlexyBlock sized only at 50 x 50 x 25mm, without
the barbs. It is is just slightly bigger than the AMD64 processor.
The whole block looks like chrome while the lid was made of
acrylic. This has got the be the shinniest looking water block in
the streets! Besides the PlexyBlock, OCLabs also has Monoblock for
their water block products, but the MonoBlock doesn't come with
the acrylic lid. You might want to get this kind of water block
for your next modding project, wouldn't you?"

DG834GT
Review @ TekBunker
“Ok,
sounds good. Though first a sad story, well kind of. I had my trusty DG824M
since July 2003, to replace my DG814. I was planning to upgrade any week now,
but then, for no reason, the router died. Just like that. Luckily, with a 3
year warranty, I feel a little better, and have registered and emailed netgear
about this issue. I bought the latest DG834GT, because I love the way netgear
routers look. By far the best looking, most boring part of a PC. Well done
netgear for this. This review is not a big tech review of how well the router
does something fancy, but a mini review, to show what u get, does it work, and
is it good. Nothing more.”

ATake Dual Colour UV LED Fan @ DreamWare Computers
"Computer
lighting has really evolved as it has become more popular. There's regular
cathodes, UV, LED light strips, "bubble" light strips, LED fans,
cathode lit fans, and on and on. Today we're taking a look at a Dual Colour UV
LED Fan made by ATake. The unusual thing about this fan is that the blades are
lit one colour and the body of the fan is lit another colour! Very neat
effect."

Asus AX800Pro/TVD @ Extensive Mods

"With
the arrival of the new era of FPS pumping, quality enhancing,
performance boosting video cards came the ASUS AX800Pro/TVD. Since
the release of the ATI R420, and Nvidia 6800 GPU's, there has been
rivalry between the two company's to produce the fastest graphics
card on the market. With features such as ATI's Smoothvision HD,
Smartshader HD, Videoshader D, Hyper Z HD, and 3Dc, ATI is
continuing to push the bounds of graphics card technology in the
21st century! Read the review to find out more!"
