Traditional lazer LED light kits have been around for a while now, and have never seemed to be the most popular form of case lighting. Things could change with the newest generation of these lighting tools from Xoxide, aptly named 'super' lazer LEDs. Improving some setbacks from the traditional model, these lighting kits have some exceptional features for anyone looking for alternative lighting solutions to traditional cold cathodes.

With the growing tide of shiny, clear glow in the dark PCs is it any wonder that we are seeing an influx of cheap tacky products to the market? When asked to review a UV dual cathode fan grill I was to say the least laughing my butt off. So with a giggle I begrudgingly accepted the task. Its a dirty job being a site owner so it had to be done.

Today we'll be looking at 3 power supplies from a company called A+GPB. I've never heard of them either, but we have their TrueSilent 420w, MagicColor 480w, and the dual-fan 500w models all here on our testing table. Add a multimeter, a high-powered system, and Antec's TruePower 430w in the mix and you have a 4-way PSU shootout.

The perfect case we are all looking for it, well I would have to say CaseArts come as close as a lot of suppliers out there. You will definitely want to look at this offering, an aluminum case with an ASTOUNDING paint job. Almost a perfect 10, check this one out, you’re a daisy if you do!

The Icemat has a great surface. It is fast, slick and definitely won't bind. The six polyurethane feet keep the Icemat anchored even under the toughest conditions. With the weight of the glass, added to the weight of your hand resting on it, it is definitely not going to move. The glass is frosted, textured I guess, and provides a great base for an optical mouse.

These specs are pretty standard except for the power supply, which has more watts coming out of the power supply then a lot of other cases out there this size. With full tower power supply's running 550 watts, 250w might seem small, but this is more then ample since you won't be running multiple cd-roms and cases fans. Perfect for a P4 or Athlon based system.
