Abit AV8, Asus Star Ice CPU Cooler, and more!

Hey folks, it's time for one more update to cap off the night. I received my BFG 6800GT OC w/ NV5 Silencer today... wow, big step up from a 9800 Pro :) Goodnight all.

Asus Star Ice CPU Cooler Review @ PC Perspective

"At the end of the day I have mixed feelings about the Asus Star Ice CPU cooler. If you are looking for a large cooler that looks like a small jet engine fitted onto your motherboard then the Star Ice is what you seek. To obtain good cooling performance it may also have to sound like a small jet engine."

Ahanix D'Vine 4 Home Theater PC ATX Case @ PimpRig

"The front view, I have to say, is the most stylish aspect of this case. The thick brushed aluminum front has a solid classic look to it. The smoked glass hiding the VFD display is set very well and does give at all when you push against it. Since this is a HTPC case there are 2 USB and 1 Firewire ports on the front that are good additions for plugging in a video camera for direct downloading. The drive bay door conceals 2 External 5 ¼ inch Bays."

Leadtek PX6600GT TDH PCI-E Video Card Review @ GruntvillE.com

"The Leadtek was absolutely a blast. I started out by moderately overclocking the core and memory; I bumped the core up 20MHz and the memory up 20 MHz. This was of course, no great feat but I must say I was happy to see it had worked. I decided to go for some gusto and bumped the core up to 550MHz and the memory up to 1100MHz."
