In the end, I was very impressed with this heat sink's performance. Utilizing only 4 heat pipes in direct contact with the processor, it pushed ahead of its competition. My only concern would fall with the universal mount and the possibility of the excess material impinging on a protruding transistor or capacitor. Sometimes doing more with less isn't always a great idea.
Evercool Transformer 4 CPU Cooler Review at Overclockers Online
The ocinside.de overclocking software page got an extensive update with dozens of small tools to tune, benchmark and test the PC hardware. If you like to overclock, backup, or monitor your PC or if you just like to check your components, this is the right place for you. There are useful older Shareware and Freeware tools, as well as the latest tweakting tools to change the CPU multiplier or FSB and to overclock current nVidia or ATI video cards. Additionally, several PCMark and 3DMark benchmark programs got an update in June 2009 and the current 3DMark Vantage software is hosted on the ocinside.de Servers. The overview contains direct downloads, links to the developers, a small description and the size of the respective software.
While the memory performed well, the results in any test couldn't really make a strong case for 4GB over 3GB or 2GB, and for that matter 800MHz over 667Mhz. Benchmark results are not the only thing to consider when looking at a memory upgrade, as most people are well aware that adding more memory improves overall system performance, especially when multi-tasking.
As a whole, the Rosewill RKM-800RF Wireless Keyboard and mouse combo is a decent, solid performer. In a very crowded field of contenders, it doesn’t really stand out, and doesn’t draw attention to itself, but it performs admirably. If you are a hard-core gamer, or if you have large hands like me, you might want to try it before committing to the RKM-800RF.
"If, as they say, silence is golden, then Cooler Master chose the wrong color for their Sileo 500 computer case. As this review shows, the Sileo is clearly up to the task of keeping even the most demanding hardware comfortably cool, and doing it at near silence. After playing with this chassis for a week or so, I can assure you it would be very easy to build a silent machine using this chassis and some carefully chosen mainstream hardware."![email4 [news]](http://lanoc.org/reviews/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/email4-news.jpg "email4 [news]")
"In the end this little keyboard exceeded my expectations. The construction is very solid, the orange backlighting looks awesome, and it has a nearly full 103-key lineup so it's perfect for just about any task. Gaming is what it's designed for and it works great for that, but the soft and quiet keys also work well for general computer use." ![gigabyte_ma790x_ud4p [news]](http://lanoc.org/reviews/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/gigabyte_ma790x_ud4p-news.jpg "gigabyte_ma790x_ud4p [news]")
"Along with AMD's launch of the Phenom II and Athlon II processor families this year, we've also witnessed a steady shift in focus from their AM2+/DDR2 platform to a full AM3/DDR3 platform. The good news is that these newer AM3 processors support both DDR2 and DDR3 memory, allowing consumers to upgrade without replacing their whole system. Still, that leaves many wondering if they're missing out by not making the jump to DDR3 memory. To help answer that question, today Benchmark Reviews puts Gigabyte's DDR2-based MA790X-UD4P motherboard to the test." ![tnbig [news]](http://lanoc.org/reviews/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/tnbig-news.jpg "tnbig [news]")
"It's nice to see Enermax break out of the power supply market and into something new. The Enermax Aurora line of keyboards is a great addition to Enermax's lineup. Aesthetically, the keyboards shine - both literally and figuratively. The brushed aluminum finish is great and is definitely an eye-catcher. The laptop-like keys are also very nice compared to conventional keyboards. In terms of visual design, the keyboards are near perfect - they are works of art."![CoolerMaster-updates-the-UCP900-to-version-4--80--GOLD!-jmke-27432 [news]](http://lanoc.org/reviews/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/CoolerMaster-updates-the-UCP900-to-version-4-80-GOLD-jmke-27432-news.jpg "CoolerMaster-updates-the-UCP900-to-version-4--80--GOLD!-jmke-27432 [news]")
"We got hands-on experience with the latest and greatest Cooler Master PSU, a 900W unit rated 80 Plus Gold, and it will be available in shops soon too! Using some advanced test gear we get to put it under extreme load to see how it handles. Read on if power saving and a world´s first 80 Plus Gold rating is interesting for you!"
"You would be hard pressed to find visual shortcomings with the ViewSonic VX2433wm. With a resolution of 1920x1080 you are able to display the latest HD content, something the majority of smaller monitors are not capable of. The monitor's visual qualities are complimented by being able to connect via all three of the most popular connections; HDMI, DVI and VGA." ![QNAP_TS-119_Gigabit_SATA_NAS_Server [news]](http://lanoc.org/reviews/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/QNAP_TS-119_Gigabit_SATA_NAS_Server-news.jpg "QNAP_TS-119_Gigabit_SATA_NAS_Server [news]")
"If you've ever visited Benchmark Reviews in the past, you've probably noticed that we've tested a large collection of NAS products. At the same time, you might have noticed how many of these products aren't really geared towards home users needing just the basics. That's where the QNAP TS-119 comes in handy. Designed to hold a single SATA drive (HDD or SSD), the TS-119 can deliver all the great features of larger more expensive NAS products. The latest Enterprise-level NAS servers feature iSCSI expansion, RAID redundancy, and Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, and surprisingly the TS-119 does these things too, but without the expensive price tag. How can a single-drive NAS offer RAID you ask? In this article Benchmark Reviews takes the QNAP TS-119 through a tough set of p! erformance tests while we outline the Turbo NAS functions and features." ![less_memory [news]](http://lanoc.org/reviews/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/less_memory-news.jpg "less_memory [news]")
"The last memory reviews on ocinside.de already contained a few references and information about the problem with 4GB RAM memory expansion in Microsoft Windows 32 bit operating systems. Because of the constantly decreasing RAM prices more questions about these memory sizes reach our mailbox and forum. So there is now a seperate workshop guide, which describes the difficulties with larger memory size more exactly. Because sometimes 2 + 2 is 3. Additionally this article contains an operating system list with the maximum supported memory."
"This review will focus on an SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) card from Patriot Memory. This card can be used like any other SDHC card, but it also includes software that allows the user to automatically back up their data. The Patriot Duplicator SDHC card is available in 8GB, 16GB and 32GB sizes, and we will be taking a look at the 16GB version."![Lilliput_EBY701_Front_Title [news]](http://lanoc.org/reviews/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Lilliput_EBY701_Front_Title-news.jpg "Lilliput_EBY701_Front_Title [news]")

"We'll start with what Tuniq has done right. The Ripper 1000W is a good looking unit; clean finish, sleeved cables with matching heatshrink, connectors and fan grill. The unit comes with plenty of molex connectors and the cables have quite a bit of length in them. In terms of performance, the Ripper finds itself placed comfortably in the middle of the pack- while there are better units available, it outperforms plenty others. Still, all around good performance."
