With all the new dual core and quad core processors in the market now a days using more and more power and producing more and more heat, many people need to upgrade their cooling, as well. For many, stock coolers work just fine, but what if you have a water-cooling system?

I`ve been running the Danger Den (DD) kit for a few years, and they have never left me behind. I love my old TDX block, but now the guys at DD have come up with something new: the Danger Den MC-TDX, which is specifically made for quad-core processors. I have yet to find out what the “MC” means in the MC-TDX means but I figure it stands for “Multi Core”.

Title: Goldmund’s Media Room: A Dream For Audiophiles @ Phoronix
Direct Link: http://www.phoronix.com/vr.php?view=11685
Summary: “Last week I had received a unique CES invitation from Rogers &
Cowan, a PR firm representing an array of entertainment and technology
companies, about one of their clients that advertises itself as the
makers of the “world’s most extravagant and technologically advanced
systems for audio-video purists.” For the Consumer Electronic Show,
participating companies will either have a booth or suite somewhere in
Las Vegas, but that wasn’t the case for Goldmund, this Rogers & Cowan
client that specializes in high-end audio/video systems. Their systems
are so advanced that they simply cannot be built in a day or even a
week, but for each of their media rooms they spend extensive time
planning and constructing the rooms that are slated to be perfect, even
an imperfect world. With that said, it was easier and more cost
effective for Goldmund to just have four other writers and I check out
their luxurious home theater systems in a demonstration home near Los
Angeles.”

BurnOutPC.com has just posted a review on the SunbeamTech Freezing Storm

Quote
“It’s been a case bonanza the last few weeks here at BurnOutPC. We’ve looked at two Antec cases, two revoltec cases, and now it’s time for Sunbeamtech to step into the game and see what their made of. Sunbeamtech has been around for a while now. At first only active in the casemodding scene, but later with unique high performance products under their subsidiary brand Tuniq. Sunbeam has had a few cases in their assortment already, one of those is the Freezing Storm.”

I have cats, and of course one of the pain in the arse things about them is cleaning the litter box and I’ve seen some interesting products to alleviate the chore of cleaning the litter box but this thing is about the oddest one yet…

It requires electricity, running water and a drain to use it… I think it’s much easier the old way eh?

Title: ASUS Silent Knight II CPU Cooler Review  @ Virtual-Hideout

Review link: http://www.virtual-hideout.net/reviews/ASUS_Silent_Knight_II/index.shtml

Quote: “The most promising physical technological improvements have been, and still are, the implementation of heat pipes. Manufacturers have designed heat pipe specific CPU coolers using various numbers of pipes. Some makers design theirs with only a couple heat pipes while others seem to add as many as they can fit on a CPU cooler. Some look like CPU coolers and others look like engines with copper headers. While all these variations have their own appeal, ASUS has chosen to design coolers with a more isometric feel in their lineup.

We’ve seen a few of their coolers here at VH before and they were always worthy of recommendations. We have a new one on hand that is actually an updated version of the original Silent Knight CPU Cooler. Today, the Silent Knight II CPU Cooler is on the work bench and looks quite promising.”

The Hoax DVD Review @ Ascully.com

Quote

“I really enjoyed this film. It is, or course, based on the book The Hoax by Clifford Irving, and it tells the tale of Irving’s attempt to pass off a fake autobiography that he had supposedly been asked to write with reclusive billionaire Howard Hughes.”

Title: Foxconn F1 Motherboard Prototype
Link: http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/513
Category: First Look

Summary:
Foxconn F1 motherboard prototype, a socket 775 board featuring four PCI Express x16 slots allowing CrossFireX using an Intel chipset, water-cooling to cool down the chipset and the voltage regulator and a thermoelectric cooler (Peltier) to cool down the north bridge chip.

Here is a snippet:
“During CES 2008 Foxconn showed us a prototype of a motherboard based on a non-revealed Intel chipset (probably Intel’s forthcoming P45 chipset) that will have four PCI Express x16 slots, allowing four video cards under CrossFireX using an Intel solution. It is not only that, this prototype – internally known as F1 – will come with a water-cooling solution to cool down the chipset and the transistors from the voltage regulator circuit, and below the north bridge block it has a thermoelectric cooler (TEC, a.k.a. “Peltier”).”
