ATI Radeon HD 3450 and Radeon HD 3650 Video Cards @ Legit Reviews
The ATI Radeon HD 3650 is the direct replacement for the ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro as you can tell from the chart above.

A look at VIA's next-gen Isaiah x86 CPU Architecture @ Tech Report
A brand-new x86 processor microarchitecture doesn't come along every day, but today, we have just that. We visited the offices of VIA Technologies' processor subsidiary, Centaur Technology, Inc., yesterday to learn about its new x86-compatible processor architecture. Remarkably, Centaur President Glenn Henry and his team of less than 100 people have created a thoroughly modern x86 processor microarchitecture from scratch over the course of the last four years. The resulting design, which bore the code-named CN during its development and is also known as the VIA Isaiah microarchitecture, is a superscalar 64-bit processor with speculative, out-of-order execution.

D-Link Wireless-N Networking Products Review @ OzHardware

Thermaltake ToughPower 1000 Modular Power Supply @ Pro-Clockers
Thermaltake's latest offering is geared toward such a person that need an all out power house. And Thermaltake is fast becoming a name that is associated with high-end power supplies. But things have changed since the introduction of the ToughPower line. The 1000 watt ToughPower is not the biggest baddest of the line but will easily power most of the systems we build today. Coupling large amounts of power and some modular cabling, you have a boatload of power and with some easy cable management. And because this unit is not the most powerful of the line you don't have to worry about spending a lot of money like say the 2000 watt unit we saw at CES in Vegas this year. So. Lets take a look at the Thermaltake TP1000 Modular.

Super Talent Project X 2x1GB DDR3 PC3-14400 Review @ Hardware Canucks
Always at the leading edge of DRAM technology, it was no surprise to see the press releases this past summer from Super Talent regarding DDR3 modules. Then in the early fall, the new heat sink design was announced and their top-end DDR3 modules were outfitted sporting the new design. With increased surface area and increased mass, Super Talent aimed to further push the DRAM cooling envelope with the Project X memory heat sink.

Foxconn P35AP-S Motherboard Revisited: New BIOS @ Madshrimps
In our latest P35 motherboard round-up we had the Foxconn P35AP-S to test. It featured both ddr2 and ddr3 memory compatibility, which introduced a few unknown problems. We asked Foxconn if they planned to fix the problem, not long afterwards we got a response.

Logitech ChillStream Actively Cooled Gamepad Review @ Tweaknews
To say the least, this controller is a mixed bag of pros and cons with neither of them propping the product to be a winner or pushing it down to being an absolute failure. Sure this is a good ergonomic controller which should perform its gaming tasks with ease, but the main defining characteristic, the cooling, needs work.

Xigmatek MAC-S3501 DDR/DDR2 Memory Heatspreaders Review @ Frostytech
Xigmatek's MAC-S3501 memory heatspreaders are intended for DDR and DDR2 memory modules, and assuming the sticks of memory you have are bare, installation is a quick affair. A thin strip of jelly silicon thermal interface is laid down on the DRAM, and then the anodized aluminum Xigmatek MAC-S3501 heatspreaders are set in place. If on the other hand your memory already has heatspreaders that are attached with adhesive or frag tape, there's a good chance you may destroy your memory if you attempt to remove the heatspreaders.
