CompUSA wireless optical mouse.
This one is right here, click it dammit!
Swiftech GPU Block.
You can also see where Swiftech had their thinking caps on, and machined the base to be compatible with ATI's shim design on their current cards, so it makes full contact with the VPU. Taking a look inside the block, you can see Swiftech's Patent Pending Diamond-Pin Matrix design that promotes turbulence in the block to dissipate heat quickly, and improve the efficiency of core cooling.
Albatron i845PE action at HWGuru.
Although both systems overclocked the same, the Albatron pulled ahead on all counts, largely due to the use of its 2.66 memory divider. The maximum the Abit could use was 2.0, whereas the Albatron was using 2.66, this proved to the deciding factor, as shown in the huge differences of the overclocked memory bandwith Sandra test.
Bench-House and the MSI granite bay.
The potential of the Intel newcomer is obvious, and it will be definitely used to the fullest in the following improved versions. This is clearly a product that brings a new level of quality and performance, so on the basis of that it deserves our unreserved recommendation.
Dream cooler from Coolermaster.
The X-Dreams performance is better than any other Socket A cooler I have reviewed to date. Even at the lowest fan speeds, the unit provides more than adequate cooling.
The mini ITX at Tweaknews.
In my opinion, this board could and should replace an entry level DVD player and computer. This board with the ethernet could easily 'hide' in a living room feeding audio and video to the entire house at the direction of a remote computer.
Active-Hardware and the ECS L4S8A.
ECS has always been able to attract users to their motherboards using a combination of low prices, and interesting features. The ECS L4S8A itself represents a great buy if you don't want to invest a large sum of money in a new mobo.

Double post haha
