"Today we are going to talk about three extremely large system cases that demonstrate dramatically different approaches to internal components organization. The interesting thing is that all three of them are targeted for the most demanding and sophisticated computer users."

  Case, HTPC, and PSU News
"As prices for quality power supplies fall, products that were once out of reach are now accessible to consumers who are on a budget. With the ever-increasing power demands of the most modern components, 850W PSUs have become one of the “sweet spots” for the current market. Today we look at nine such units; some offer a budget friendly solution while others are uncompromising in every way."

  Case, HTPC, and PSU News
"We have today posted our next case review and this time we take a look at one of the new performance cases from Antec, namely the P183. It looks like the P182 in many ways, the fanguard however is removed from the top, a new design on the front door, but is there anything else that has been changed?"

  Case, HTPC, and PSU News
"In the big scale of computing tasks, playing video isn’t a particularly taxing task, and computers have been able to do it for years, meaning just about any one will do. So rather than showing you how to empty your wallet shelling out for custom home theater components, we’re going to show you how to do it on the cheap, with just about any old machine you happen to have."

  Case, HTPC, and PSU News
"Looking for a midtower case that's easy on the eyes and your wallet? If so, you may want to check out Thermaltake's latest chassis, the Element S. With a stylish design and innovative cable management system, we were highly impressed by this chassis, and it isn't priced like a Ferrari."

  Case, HTPC, and PSU News
"The Curbic is the latest mid tower chassis from Tagan and is part of their A+ case line. The Curbic is an entry level mid tower, but you can't tell that with the sweet looking front mesh grill or side fan. Tagan designed this case to be friendly on the pocket book, but still packed with all the features you would expect in a top dollar case. Read on to see if the Tagan Curbic computer case can offer you want you want for under $60."

spacer.gif   NZXT Whisper Case Review
Posted by : Nohr on Monday, November 03, 2008 - 04:56 AM
  spacer.gif
  Case, HTPC, and PSU News
"At present, extended ATX cases are very limited and cost a pretty premium. Only a handful are available with the cheapest coming in around the $100 mark and it doesn't have near the storage or expansion capabilities. Anything offering the same features or close to that of the Whisper are going to run you $170 and more. That's something definitely worth considering if you're in the market for a quiet, spacious super case like the NZXT Whisper."

"Some users want a powerful system; for others silence is the goal. It can be difficult to balance these competing objectives, but this fanless PSU from Amacrox looks to do just that."

  Case, HTPC, and PSU News
"Antec is back again with their Sonata casing, this time coupled with their fabulous NeoPower 550watts power supply. They packed it altogether in one box and called it the Sonata Plus 550. Another Sonata case, that at first sight looks a bit dull but if you look closer you'll be amazed by what this case has to offer."

  Case, HTPC, and PSU News
"On the test bench today are two power supplies, Antec's EarthWatts (EA-500) 500w and Seasonic's M12II 500w (SS-500GM). They're both 500w power supplies, and in many ways they're the same, but also quite different. With one marketed for users who want a value priced energy efficient unit, and the other for gamers, I'll take a look at what sets them apart."
