Advantages: Lightweight, No external power needed Disadvantages: Looks a bit offspring
...This antec product enables you to use your usb port for mkore than just conventional computer periphrals. By plugging this fan into any usb port on a desktop or notebook computer you can be assured of a cool and steady breeze whilst at the same time have some light to work by if it's dark.
The fan has several bright LEDs that look good as well as serving a worthwhile purpose. The fan blades are behind a grill for safety and there is a variable speed control to adjust the strength of the breeze.
The fan is light enough to not cause a problem when carrying it around, but the only downside is that it does look at bit bulky from a distance and a bit 'mechanical'. But apart from that, it's a cheap way to keep cool this summer when you're on the move....

Advantages: Compatible with newer 24pin motherboards and EPS12v Server boards, High wattage, Silent fan operation Disadvantages: Needs adapter to use with 20pin motherboards,
...Upon upgrading my computer to an athlon MP system, i thought it would be a good idea to change my power supply for something a bit more powerful.
When i looked up the specifications for this power supply at antec`s website, there was nothing i could fault.
Looking into it further, i found that i would need a 24pin to 20pin adapter to use this on my motherboard.
The handy thing is that although this isnt an ATX2.0 power supply, the 24pin pinout for the EPS12v ATX connector is 100% identical to the ATX2.0 24pin pinout. Another reason why i decided on this powersupply (so when i upgrade to dual opterons - this powersupply will be ample and will already provide the correct connectors).
You can always tell the quality of a power supply by its weight, and these ones are heavy!
Comparing it to my old Q-tec 400w power supply you would think...

As you might expect, it's difficult to write an in-depth review of a case fan without having any expensive equipment to detect airflow and noise, but judging by the way these seem to keep my system cool and stay quiet at the same time, I'd say they're... more
The P182 is, like the P180, a great case for those who want a quiet but high-performance PC. My temperatures in this case were a good 5ºC lower than in my previous case, which I attribute to the separation of the two main heat sources - the PSU and the... more
