Akasa / Coolermaster / Nexfan rounded IDE cables, written by various on 2003-08-17. Genre: mods.
Akasa / Coolermaster / Nexfan rounded IDE cables I was sent a set of Akasa UV-reactive rounded IDE cables.. GillianChung was sent a set of Coolermaster rounded cables by the lovely people at Case-mod.com.. rayz00 bought a set of cables from nexfan. Since they are essentially the same product I bundled our 3 accounts together for this makeshift threes-up.

Steelpad 4D, written by mrplow on 2004-05-21. Genre: peripherals.
Steelpad 4D The Steelpad 4S is still the flagship product, and a sexy beast it is. There's nothing quite like a cool slab of aluminium to get a geek hot under the collar (that and the latest issue of "Nuts" magazine, how I hate people who read that...) and the performance of the pad certainly kept up with its lush appearance. So what's this, the Steelpad 4D, offer differently and, most importantly, is it even better? Well my good friends, let us take a gander and see if we can't just work that out.

TClock system customisation, written by mrplow on 2001-09-06. Genre: software.
TClock system customisation tClock allows you to change the default settings of the task bar and start menu. On the right are a variety of desktops, each with different colours and styles on the taskbar (and some l33t background pics, hehe). If you want to do something similar, just follow our instructions :).

Back in the old days a case was just a box you plonked the computer in. Now it's an integral part of your cooling system as well, and this one is trying something a bit new. Luckily, and importantly, it also looks rather natty. 
Enermax are no stranger to the scene. They've been producing top flight power supplies for yonks and have tried there hand at case design on a few occasions too. This, the CS-718 released under the company's

The evolution of waterblock design has been to eek as much cooling performance from systems as possible without introducing brute force methods like bigger radiators or faster, louder, cooling fans. A while back I took a look at the Alphacool NexXxoS Pro HP block which, back then, was a bit of an arse kicker. Here we'll have a look at a new block with a big ambition: to beat the HP and its peers.

So what do we have here? Well, we have a well built, very attractive, solid hard working power supply. But it does come with a price tag to match. As mentioned earlier it's not as expensive as high-end power supplies used to be (although Enermax do produce a ~£100 unit, so I suppose this is their mid-range effort) but compared to other brands it is still an expensive choice. HiPer, Super Flower, Tagan and Antec all make similarly specced units at lower prices, but whether they are as polished (quality-wise, as well as the literal meaning) as this Enermax unit is something I cannot comment on.
