Foxconn Mars Motherboard Review Block
Published: Sunday, December 23, 2007 | By: DennisWe've been looking to get our hands on one of these boards for quite some time now, you see Foxconn never did overclocking very well and to remain competitive they needed something in that space. According to my contacts at Computex they worked with DFI to create a fancy new motherboard that is supposed to do just that.

Lian-Li PC-7 SE-B III Case Review @ MadShrimps
Published: Friday, December 21, 2007 | By: DennisFor some reason this case looks like every other Lian-Li case in existence but I find their comparison charts to be rather humorous.
PC-Cooling.de send us an affordable mid-tower case from Lian-Li, this light weight aluminum case comes with three silent 120mm fans preinstalled and lots of tool less features. Let´s find out if a high end system can be kept cool inside. -

Intel to delay launch of three 45nm quad-core CPUs on poor AMD performance
Published: Wednesday, December 19, 2007 | By: DennisIntel has already notified its partners that it will pushback the launch of the three CPUs to February or March next year,depending on AMD's schedule for triple-core and the upcoming PhenomCPUs.
Launching the CPUs now will not benefit Intelmuch in its battle with AMD, while they could cause damage to Intel's65nm quad-core CPUs, therefore the company has decided it is in no rushto release new products until AMD is able to present more of a threat.
That is really nice of them isn't it? -
DangerDen M5 & MC-TDX CPU Waterblocks Review @ Virtual-Hideout
Published: Monday, December 17, 2007 | By: DennisDangerDen is one of the premier watercooling mfgs in the business, granted they aren't as big as some of the more "popular" companies out there but the DangerDen name goes a long ways with the enthusiast community.
Nothing says, "My computer rocks!" quite like a sweet looking water cooling system. And it gets better and better as all the blocks evolve. This has been true for just about every water cooling manufacturer. We've seen plenty of water cooling kits and cooling blocks come and go. And it's just as interesting today as it was the first day water cooling made its appearance.
The new TDX is very nice however is nothing like the previous edition, instead of waterchannels they have opted for a pin grid array claiming it will cool better and support the new quad core and more processors. -
