Digit-Life Review: ASUS M3N78-EMH HDMI Motherboard on NVIDIA GeForce 8200 Chipset (Socket AM2+) Excerpt: "ASUS was the first to offer a motherboard on this chipset in retail stores. Expectedly, it's a moderately rigged microATX board. However, this product can boast of the full set of video outs - DVI, HDMI, and VGA."

Computex is over, but our coverage continues. This time we'll take a look at how the world of cases, power supplies and cooling are changing this year with new products from ASUS, Thermaltake, Cooler Master, Silverstone and more. URL: http://www.pcper.com/article.php?aid=573 Quote: "This is really an enthusiast chassis that is completely open, allowing for easy component replacement and adjustment. With slide out drawers on rails that allow you to move the motherboard section and power supply section out from under the ENORMOUS LED-lit fan, it is a frequent-component-changers dream case."

Hello Again, Futurelooks checks out a bit of cooling throwback...a slot cooler... VIZO Propeller II System Cooler Review The VIZO Propeller II System Cooler is an upgrade over the old boring black slot fan and an updated version of their original VIZO Propeller. It features a translucent colour casing, larger blower fan, and a directed exhaust. Everything is still very basic in that the fan installs into your typical expansion card slot, and is powered off a standard Molex connector. But with the quieter blower, and the proposed CFM rating, it claims it can improve airflow and performance.

At Phoronix we have posted a new article. A link to this from your site's news section would be greatly appreciated. Title: Tagan Icy Box NAS4220 NAS Enclosure ( -at -) Phoronix Direct Link: http://www.phoronix.com/vr.php?view=12476 Summary: "Over the past few years we have looked at several Tagan power supplies such as the TurboJet 1100W and BZ 900W. However, their product selection is no longer limited to power supplies and they now produce several different desktop cases as well as a growing selection of storage devices. These storage products are part of their Icy Box family, which consists of 2.5" and 3.5" hard drive enclosures as well as NAS (Network Attached Storage) devices. One of these products is the Tagan Icy Box IB-NAS4220-B, which is a two-drive SATA NAS with support for RAID 0/1/JBOD. What makes this device more interesting to us is that it runs Linux and Tagan is more than happy to let its customers modify the unit and write their own software." Please feel free to contact us with any questions or comments you may

ast month, Kingston Technology announced the release of a high-performance, low-latency 800MHz DDR2 fully-buffered dual-inline memory modules (FB-DIMMs). Kingston uses a single U-shaped heat pipe to cool the FB-DIMMs' Advanced Memory Buffer (AMB). To help transfer the heat away from the heat pipe they then employed a set of nine cooling fins dissipate the intense heat from the AMB. Read on to see how the kit performs! Quote: "The Kingston 800MHz HyperX FB-DIMMs are hands down the most innovative cooling design that we have seen Kingston bring to market. The design is flawless and the modules run cooler than any other FB-DIMMs that we have seen. For those that want even better cooling, simply place a fan on the modules like we did and you'll notice another massive temperature reduction. When it comes to building a high-end enthusiast platform using the Intel Skulltrail motherboard having the right memory modules is critical and Kingston should be the top brand on the short shopping list..."

Hi all, We have just published a review of *HP's 2133 Mini-note sub-notebook* - if you could post a link on your site that would be very much appreciated. *Link:* http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/2008/06/13/hp-2133-mini-note-linux-edition-netbook/1 *Picture:* http://images.bit-tech.net/content_images/2008/06/hp-2133-mini-note-linux-edition-netbook/fp_img.jpg *Quote: */"The HP 2133 Mini-note Linux Edition is an incredibly good looking piece of kit, but is sadly a classic example of style over substance. Gorgeously designed and stunning to look at, the 2133 Mini-note seems to have it all at first glance. The keyboard is perfectly sized and the screen is bright and perky. It's so pleasurable to use that it could probably only be topped by an invitation to have a go on a jelly-covered bouncy castle with the half-naked celebrity of your choice. It's a bit disappointing then that this is all that the 2133 stands out for. Throughout our time with the notebook it slowly dawned on us that although the Mini-note wasn't a bad netbook, it certainly isn't the best. While it does manage to tick most of the right boxes and do everything it sets out to do, it just doesn't do those things as well or as fast as other products. Price is a limiting factor too and the HP is in danger of putting itself out of the market with the £350 price tag as the reality is although it looks like you're getting bang for your buck, all you're actually getting is the appearance that that is what you get. In the end, the HP 2133 Mini-note is very much like the aforementioned celebrity-endorsed jelly-castle adventure. It sounds good in theory, it's great while you're doing it and you're sure to have a lot of fun. When all is said and done though you'll just be left slightly frustrated that the experience didn't quite live up to your expectations. Also, it'll be messy. As a netbook the Mini-note is OK, but there are better and faster products on the market that would work out cheaper. " / * *Cheers guys! Tim Smalley www.bit-tech.net

Hi all, We have just published a review of *Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures *- if you could post a link on your site that would be very much appreciated. *Link:* http://www.bit-tech.net/gaming/2008/06/12/lego-indiana-jones-the-original-adventures/1 *Picture:* http://images.bit-tech.net/content_images/2008/06/lego-indiana-jones-the-original-adventures/fp_img.jpg *Quote: */"Lego Indy is very much a game in the same mould as //Lego Star Wars -- a fact which is simultaneously both exactly what we wanted and hugely disappointing. It's big and it's funny and it's going last any player worth their salt a long, long time. It's Indy and it's Lego -- both are equal parts awesome, so the end result of the mix is pretty awesome too. The problem is though that we're talking in generalities there, because once you get down the specifics of the PC version the game is a bit of a letdown. The keyboard just isn't hugely fun to play with and the game suffers from fairly basic design flaws that really hammer this home. It's a shame. The game could be exactly the type of game to pass the time this summer while the football is on and we geeks have to otherwise occupy ourselves. In fact, it / /is that game as far as console gamers are concerned, only on the PC does it fall down out of a generally lessened accessibility and ease of use. Besides, trying to get two people to share a computer monitor -- and a keyboard two unless you have a gamepad going spare - is never as much fun or as easy to do as it is with a console."/ * *Cheers guys!
