Nice Looks, Cool Head: Guardian 921 with Sentry LX Fan Controller Review
Sleek and appealing, NZX's Guardian 921 case provides plenty of space for gaming hardware, but the Sentry LX fan controller might be of limited utility to all but overclockers or relative novices.

Using SECC to Combine Features with a Low Price: SilverStone Kublai KL03 Review
Selecting a high-end case can be a difficult proposition, as overall construction, features, platform support, cooling, and especially price, must all be taken into consideration. A pure aluminum design is preferable, but that can also come with a heavy case of "sticker shock". SilverStone may have the answer, as their Kublai Series looks to offer a high-end feature set, but uses SECC steel to help keep costs lower.

The Airflow King or Pretender to the Throne: NZXT Tempest Case Review

Ramping up the power ratings (and prices) to 800W, 900W or even 1000W or higher seems to be a popular sales tactic for PSU manufacturers, but sometimes all you need is a quality unit, with adequate power, enough connectors, and a price that's very close to a Benjamin. BFG may have the answer, as their LS line is targeted at the mainstream market, and their LS 680W is the flagship model of their series.

Power and Efficiency from a Memory Company: Corsair TX650W Review
Corsair is quickly transforming into a real player in the power supply market, and the TX650W offers a nice mix of power, efficiency and mainstream pricing. This 650W power supply offers a lot of bang for the buck, and its only weakness is the lack of support for ultra high-end SLI/Crossfire implementations.
