Info : When you think of fan, you think keeping your PC cool, right? Well, yes. But with modding now a big part of a computer geeks *ahem* life, why not have a trival item turn into a light show??!!? - With the Akasa LED fans available from Extreme Cooling, you can have that light show ;-).

Netgear DG814 ADSL Router
Author : Zoon
Date : 07 June 2002, 00:09
Info : They certainly don't skimp on what's included in the package either. You not only get a very cool and stylish looking bit of kit, you also get all the cables you will need to get started. The network lead is Cat5e and is the snagless kind so the plastic tab doesn't get broken off, and you get a microfilter too !

Author : James
Date : 25 May 2002, 16:18

Thermaltake Ramsinks
Author : Chris
Date : 12 April 2002, 18:14
Info : Its common knowledge that when overclocking your computer components are under stress and can soon turn into an oven, so people add fans to help remove this heat. But how many times have you had a bsod (blue screen of death) because your ram has become unstable?

Review of Creative Inspire 5300 sound system
Author : DJNeuphoria
Date : 01 April 2002, 17:47
Info : The subwoofer has a nice sturdy wooden covering with a plastic air hole, which doubles as a hair dryer when your bass is nice and high. The front cone is covered by a nice material mesh sporting the creative logo on a small metal sheet at the bottom. With the cover off you can soon be amused by the mesmerizing cone as it produces clear undistorted bass.

Belkin 325va UPS
Author : Kanes
Date : 24 February 2002, 11:48
Info : Have you ever noticed when you switch on an appliance in your house the lights flicker for a second? Well that is called a brownout, the worst thing that can happen is something is switched on and your PC resets. UPS systems protect against these brownouts by switching to their batteries. So when Belkin offered one to me for review I gladly accepted.

Author : Kanes
Date : 20 February 2002, 19:58
Info : Well it's time again to look at another VIA C3. This time VIA have provided a C3 running at 866MHZ. I've decided to go a bit more in depth as people seem to want that. So I'm shooting it out against a Celeron 733.

Kanes reviews a VIA C3
Author : Kanes
Date : 31 January 2002, 00:08
Info : The CPU is priced alongside the celeron and Duron ranges so it's a budget CPU. It doesn't claim to be the best at speed however I doubt AMD or Intel can boast a 933MHZ CPU that'll run for than 30 seconds without a fan.

Author : James
Date : 29 January 2002, 22:57
Info : The recent case supplied by Antec is an entry level server case, theres one thing that all server cases need. A removable caddy ! To me, a server isn't a server without a removable HDD caddy ! You have seen the neon string mod I did on the server, now you will see a must have accessory added to the case !

Author : Kanes
Date : 16 January 2002, 19:13
Info : Well it’s my first review so I’ve decided to start things with a bang, hopefully it won’t be my hardware dying. Now I, like most of you, have more than 1 pc but I have only 1 monitor. Since I use these pc’s for different things I had to keep moving around the monitor wire to the different systems, and I'm lazy :)

Neon String Review
Author : James
Date : 03 January 2002, 21:32
Info : Neon string is great, you can mod virtually anything with it. Be it lighting up the case within so you can see through your window, or modding a keyboard. The choice is yours ! First off I'll review the neon string itself, then mod something with it!

Antec SX1030B SOHO Case Review
Author : James
Date : 26 December 2001, 23:21
Info : The first thing you notice while looking at the case, is the huge front "grill", this is there to improve the airflow of the system. This does nothing to prevent noise, but it does add a good looking case! Also at the front, is the lockable door to hide the external drive bays. This is a minor security feature as if you have removable drive bay caddies, you will want to protect them from theft, this does just that.

Arctic Silver and Arctic Alumina comparison
Author : DaveH
Date : 29 November 2001, 19:04
Info : We should all know that some kind of thermal compound between the CPU and heatsink in order to aid heat transfer and keep your precious CPU cool. A cooler CPU could lead to the ability to overclock the CPU that little bit more which is always good !

Date : 10 November 2001, 22:31
Info : The cable is a Rounded ATA100, with a Massive length of 90cm, which is great if you have a full tower case... It will also support 33/66 speed drives if you have a slower drive (like me).

CCM Window Etch
Author : Nick
Date : 16 October 2001, 20:38
Info : Now let's be fair, the PC70 looks awesome without a window but the window just adds another dimension to the case. I had the case, I had the window but something was missing! Ah, queue a leisurely visit to CoolCaseMods.com and lo and behold what do I spot; only the window etches.

Author : Dave Fawcett
Date : 10 October 2001, 19:57
Info : Intel’s P4 478 retail boxed cooler 12v DC, 0.21A fan at 2600rpm is very slow. It has a large size heat sink with a very high pressure clip mechanism that I found bent my motherboard quite badly!
