The PlayStation®3 Slim Just Got a Lot Cooler

LOS ANGELES - March 23, 2010

Nyko Technologies, the leading videogame peripherals manufacturer, today announced the shipment of its Intercooler Slim™ for PlayStation® 3 Slim (PS3 Slim) to major North American retailers. Designed for use with the PS3 Slim, the latest edition to Nyko's popular Intercooler line of game console cooling devices offers both convenience and functionality.

The Intercooler Slim can be used with the PS3 Slim in both vertical and horizontal positions and automatically turns on and off with the console.

OCZ Technology Shutters Hypersonic-PC @ Techgage.com

Over the past few months, it's become increasingly clear that OCZ has shifted its focus more towards its core products, and as a result, the company will no longer invest in things like cooling products, peripherals and so forth. Rather, it will focus on SSDs, memory and of course, power supplies. As I made my earlier post, I had wondered what OCZ's renewed focus would mean for Hypersonic-PC, and that was made clear to me earlier today.

UMLan Article Release: Thermaltake Element V - Review

Remember when we used to make and go to lan parties and how everyone wanted to have the best looking case out there? Yeah, I certainly do. We used to pimp out our cases to look like christmas trees no matter how much money the parts were. We wanted it all. The great cooling, the style, the coloring, the fans and of course the accessibility. Some of us couldn't afford any of it and some of us were lucky enough to have this all.

Nokia N97 Mobile Phone Review @ BayReviews.com

"The Nokia N97 mobile phone is a compact phone with a slide out full QWERTY keyboard and a huge 3.5" touch screen with tilt. I would mostly use this as a personal phone to get all my emails, surf the web, take pictures and videos and of course store them in the huge 32 GB storage space. So I tested it for about two weeks and these are my results."

News - Thermaltake V3 Black Edition Review at Overclockers Online

Objectivity speaking, Thermaltake has designed a good performing chassis at a great price point. Obviously, this chassis isn't for everyone, but for its intended market it is a great value. When you factor in the cost of additional fans, the price point will raise from under fifty dollars to somewhere around sixty five dollars for a properly equipped chassis. Still, the build quality and overall design are a testament to the value of this chassis. I'd happily recommend this case to anyone looking for a good looking case at a modest price point.

Gigabyte 790FXTA-UD5 Motherboard Review @ Madshrimps

Gigabyte announced their new 333 lineup end of November 2009. At the 333 Event Show, however there was no word on the AMD CPU supporting motherboards. Focus was mainly on P55 and X58 series.

The A in the name reflects it is a souped up 333 version of the previous model 790FXT-UD5.
