There
are times when I just love my job soooooo much. This is one
of those times when I have not one but two of the coolest
cards in the world, in my hands.
Yes
I have two of only three Gainward CoolFX cards that are in
the whole of the UK. I wonder what I would get for them on
ebay........
Oh in the flesh they look better than in the pictures, trust
me :)

"The WallComp"
quote: "For
a while I had wanted to do something different. I wanted to make a new
type of computer case unlike any I have seen, but I didn't even know
what to make it with. I thought of working with fiberglass (car-stereo
style), real glass, or even modifying a glass desk. Then I found the
Soldam Prism (now Prism II). This one desk/case really inspired me. A
few seconds after I laid eyes on it, I was already imagining it
sideways on my wall. Of course the $750 price tag to get it to my door
quickly eliminated that idea. It was time to take drastic measures...
it was time to mod"

you go to LAN parties you're usually not allowed to bring your
speakers. You are required to bring a pair of headphones. If you are a
casual gamer at home or listen to music on your MP3 player are you
bored of your basic earphones/headphones? Well today we are going to
take a look at a unique pair of headphones today that features virtual
3D sound. Let's look at it shall we?"

Thermaltake Ducting Mod
quote: " I have seen a lot of really weird ways of keeping CPU's cool lately and
this is one of those off the wall ideas that I think looks pretty good.
The idea behind this mod is to pull the fan away from the heat sink to
cut down on the turbulence that is normally caused by the fans hub
blocking the flow of air across the center of the heat sink. "

University of Kentucky Supercomputer Breaks The $100 Per GFLOPS Barrier
quote: "Researchers at the University of Kentucky have constructed and
demonstrated an innovative new, scalable, parallel supercomputer that
achieves application performance of more than 1 billion floating point
operations per second (GFLOPS) for every $100 spent on building the
machine. The approach used to design and build this machine makes it
cost-effective for solving a wide range of problems, from drug design
using computational chemistry to design of quieter printers using
computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Thus, this breakthrough, that was
not reached with Opteron processor but plain old Athlon XP2600+ Barton,
is not only a milestone, but also will enable many more scientists and
engineers to use computational models."

USB LED Mods @ MHW
quote: "I
decided I could do it better, cheaper, faster and especially cheaper. I
went to K&J Electronics in Westminster, Ca - a fine source for all
your bits and pieces, and bought two hi-intensity 5mm 3.5v LED's for
about 5 bucks a piece. Then I wondered about how to step down the power
from a Molex to run them . but since I am a lazy guy that would be too
much work so I decided to take my power from the internal USB extension
pins."

cable lengths and fairly large price tag for a 300W supply. It
certainly delivers what it promises and most importantly has well
regulated output voltages..."

Chyang Fun Minicube
quote: "Ah Mini-ITX, what an innovation, a full computer in nothing larger than
a small box of biscuits. Being a lover of small things that make noises,
I had to buy one. For a while I settled for making my own cases (see
"Tiny Pc" article),
but unfortunately my skills with the dremel are not yet perfected and I
don't produce stuff looking as good as you can buy in the shops. So, I
decided enough was enough and I forked out for a nice shiny new case and
the Chyang Fun Minicube was the one."

iCute X-Stand

found the stand is too small for three of four cases I own and too big
for the fifth. With the smaller case, you can just push it foreword to
the front. With a tower case it hangs off all sides and does not look
right. The mid tower case is your best bet, with the varying sizes of
these you will have to play with the placement."

Zalman 400W APF PSUs
quote: "Zalman's
mission may be to deliver cooling performance without the noise you'd
normally associate it with, but there's no denying that they try to get
there with style; it may have been coincidence that maximum surface
area heatsink design required some flash designs, but I don't think the
good looks of their fan controller can be explained in similar fashion.
It shouldn't really be a surprise then that their new, top of the
range, 400W power supply isn't just a grey box and priced at around
~$100USD it certainly isn't cheap. So have Zalman delivered their
promise again? Let's find out..."

no further. However, if it's mainly music you'll be playing, and you've
heard 'good sound' before, then you might want to pay a slightly more."

multitude of uses makes us think that it'll appeal to its intended
market. Highly recommended if true quietness is high on your list of
priorities. Power users need to look elsewhere, though. An excellent
example of how to engineer and deliver a product that's aimed at a
niche, exclusive market."

Cooler Master Aerogate 2 reviewed
quote: "All I can say is that the controller does what its supposed to do. Fan
RPMs are reported back correctly and the voltage range stated on the specs
are the same when checked with a multimeter. If you connect all the
sensors and fans to the unit, you'll end up having nine wires coming out
from the drive bay towards the case center. Managing all these new wires
takes some time and skill but when done properly once, you doesn't need to
worry about them again."
