In this review we will be looking at the be quiet Dark Power Pro 14 IO 1600w PSU. The Dark Power Pro is the most technologically advanced power supply from be quiet and while every be quiet PSU shares some features there are several unique to the Dark Power and specific to how overclockers and computer enthusiasts use their systems.
In this review we looked at the Noblechairs Hero Gaming Chair. The review sample is in the High-Tech Faux Leather entirely in Black. During the assembly process I noticed several things. First is the exceptional build quality. The material has a nice feel, stitching is extremely good and the components are exceptionally good looking and strong. You’ll find all of the required hardware for assembly in the box either attached to the component or in a separate container.
In this review we looked at the Cooler Master V8 ACE 3DHP Black Intel Edition heatsink. The V-Series coolers were a popular product back in 2010 and experimented with different heatpipe layouts and experimental designs like adding TEC coolers to help improve cooling. While these were innovative at the time, they were still essentially heatpipe radiators subject to temperature differences that would dictate performance.
The Masterliquid Atmos II features a dual chamber pump design that is more compact than previous generations without impacting performance. The high-speed motor features a ceramic bearing impeller to help provide balanced waterflow and thermal performance by targeting hot spots using a larger microchannel cold plate.
When building a high-performance system you need to ensure that you are using the right components for your application. In the case of gaming and overclocking your choice of memory module can often be crucial in leveling out low framerates and getting the best performance possible especially when paired with the latest Sandy Bridge processor from Intel.
In this review we will be looking at an entry level X79 motherboard from Asus called the P9X79. The P9 series of motherboards are part of the mainstream consumer line from Asus designed for the majority of users looking for a stable system and a few upgrade options as you move up the product line.
As overclockers we often look at the highest capacity PSUs for our systems, not because we need them but because we want to make sure everything we run has adequate power. 80+ Gold edition PSUs deliver on those desires and do so with less heat, better overall efficiency and in some cases, peak loading conditions above the rated power specs.
Even though we try to concentrate on enthusiast level cooling solutions we are often called on to look at more mainstream heatsinks to see just how good they really are. In the case of the SilenX EFZ-120HA5 we are pleasantly surprised to see some good C/W numbers from a heatsink that would normally get overlooked by the community.
In this review we will be looking at a mainstream motherboard offering from Gigabyte called the Z68X-UD3H B3. This is a motherboard built around the Intel Z68 chipset supporting LGA1155 processors and just the right amount of onboard features for any purpose.
The Overseer represents the VN700 Series and the influence of Thermaltake's popular eSPORT line is clearly visible in the design. The all black SECC steel case is accented with a touch of blue that matches the blue accent lighting extremely well.
