Today I’m going to be reviewing the Asetek Waterchill kit from, you guessed it, Asetek Inc. This is the full package with a nice Hydor L30 pump, a heatercore-style radiator, a sturdy acrylic reservoir, CPU, GPU, and Chipset waterblocks. I’m sure any hardcore techie has heard of this company by now. They [...]

Zalman CNPS-7000A-Cu Heatsink Review
Zalman is a name that we’ve all heard by now. They are pretty much the only company producing low-noise yet well performing aftermarket heatsinks with any real success. Their heatsink design secret is pretty simple – HUGE surface area. From the ‘flower’ style heatsinks to the orb-style coolers, and now on to a hybrid of [...]
Enermax Xpoint CS-528 Case
Enermax is a company that has been around a long time making PC power supply units, and great ones at that. It was only a year or two ago that they delved into making PC cases, mostly aimed at the enthusiast market. This time up at the ‘Shop we’ve got an Enermax Xpoint CS-528 case [...]
Abit NF7-S Revision 2 Motherboard
Most people know that the original nForce motherboard were pretty disappointing after all the hype had been generated about them. With that said nVidia did a great job with the nForce 2 motherboards I can say after reading many reviews so I am looking forward to this review. Abit has long been a very high [...]
OCZ Dominator 2-Cu Heatsink
I recently reviewed the OCZ Gladiator II that OCZ sent over. This review is on the second heatsink they sent along which is the OCZ Dominator 2. This heatsink is a low profile aluminum heatsink which is the successor to the original Dominator heatsink which I also reviewed a while back. This Dominator 2 is [...]
AOpen AX4PE Max
The Pentium 4 scene has changed several times since the chip was first introduced. Some of these changes caused many users to stray to AMD’s (at the time) more stable architecture, attractive price, and competitive performance. It appears now that the politics over the Pentium 4 have ceased, the architecture matured, and the cost of [...]
OCZ Gladiator 2 Heatsink
OCZ sent over their two newest heatsinks and this is the first that I am reviewing. This heatsink is the Gladiator II which is the predecessor to the original Gladiator which was a great heatsink. I never reviewed the first one but I used it for a long time on many of my system and [...]
EPoX 8K9A2+ Motherboard Review
I have always been a fan of EPoX motherboards and have used them a lot because of their stability, features, and overclockability. I reviewed the EPoX 8K3A+ a while back here at OCModShop which used the VIA KT333 chipset. This is the EPoX 8K9A2+ motherboard which uses the KT400 chipset. The VIA KT400 chipset brings [...]
Thermalright Sk-6+
I just did a review on a Thermalright SK-7 and this is the little brother to that heatsink, the Sk-6+. This heatsink is almost identical to the SK-7 and has a lot in common with the SLK-800. The only real difference between the SK-7 and this heatsink is the fact that this heatsink can only [...]

This particular heatsink is called the Glacier and is made of copper and is compatible with all socket 7, socket 370, and socket 462 [...]
Thermalright SK-7 Heatsink
This is the third Thermalright heatsink I have reviewed and I have one more sitting here waiting for judgement. The Thermalright SLK-800 which I reviewed not too long ago was the best heatsink that I have ever used. Not only did it have a lot of great features but it performed really well. I am [...]
Koolance Exos Watercooling Kit
Watercooling is becoming more and more popular everyday. People are wanting to overclock their CPUs as fast as possible and with as little noise as possible. With traditional air cooling the only way to get very low temperatures is to use a high speed fan which will produce a lot of sound. The Exos is [...]
Koolcase Blue Meany Case
I have been seeing more and more cases with acrylic fronts and windows due to the fact that people are tired of the normal beige case and want something cooler. This case looks a lot like both of the Enermax cases that I have reviewed in the past. This case has the same kind of [...]
Zalman 300A-APF PSU
Today I look at yet another Zalman product, the Zalman 300A-APF power supply. Zalman is of course dedicated to quiet cooling so a lot of their products try to provide the best cooling at the lowest noise level which I really like. By implementing heat-sensor circuitry that controls the cooling fan’s speed (rpm) in relation [...]

Thermaltake, well known for their line of Orb CPU heatsinks and chipset coolers such as the infamous blue orb, have recently ventured out into other markets, namely the power supply market. The power supply market is flooded with companies, but only a few really stand out as top performers for enthusiasts, such as Antec and [...]
Thermalright SLK-800
Thermalright in the past has made a lot of high quality, awesome performing heatsinks that have usually blown away its competition, or at least equaled them. Today I am reviewing the newest Thermalright heatsink, the SLK-800. The SLK-800 is basically the SLK-600 with the ability to hold an 80mm fan while the SLK-600 could only [...]

Zalman CNPS6000-AlCu
I took a look a the Zalman CNPS6000-Cu heatsink back in April, now we take a look at its little brother, the CNPS6000-AlCu. The only thing that is different between the 6000Cu and 6000AlCu is the fact that the 6000Cu is made completely of copper while the AlCu is made of copper and aluminum. There [...]
