Hey Everyone,
We've posted a new review on 3DXtreme.net - Logitech MX518 Gaming Mouse & Z-2300 Speaker Set.

Here's a clip:
"Today we are pleased to present a review of two new products from our good friends over at Logitech. Logitech has made a well known name for themselves with PC accessories ranging from wireless mouse and keyboards to speakers, game controllers and joysticks. As a gamer, Logitech is always releasing some new product that I try desperately to get my hands on and due to their great PR staff this has never been a problem. Today we are looking at the 1600 DPI Gaming Grade Optical Mouse and the affordably priced Z-2300 2.1 THX Certified Speaker Set."

Hey Everyone,
We've posted a new review on 3DXtreme.net - SilverStone Temjin TJ06 Case.

Here's a clip:
"Once again, I have to say that Silverstone has made a quality case. Based on a very solid chassis and built of strong steel with aluminum front bezel, this is one of the stronger cases you will find on the market. Aside from the issues we encountered and mentioned previously this case is still a great case for any build. There is tons of space for some of the biggest motherboards on the market. The drives are situated so that there is also plenty of space for lots of them. Even without the wind tunnel this case still provides good cooling for the system and plenty of airflow. This is definitely a recommended case for any system builder today."

Hey Everyone,
We've posted a new review on 3DXtreme.net - Thermaltake Shark Full Tower Case.

Here's a clip:
"There is no doubt that this is a very nice case. We moved from the Silverstone Temjin TJ-05 case which, while very nice itself, was just too heavy to move around. Moving to a lighter case was no doubt a big relief. The design makes this case very attractive with the Shark outline in the door and the mimicked gills. Lighting up the front with an LED and the back with an LED fan adds just that little touch that really brings out the look of the case."

Hey Everyone,
We've posted a new review on 3DXtreme.net - Sunbeam Lightbus and Chameleon CCL Controllers.

Here's a clip:
"All right, so you’ve got a tricked out rig, complete with CCFLs, lots of fans and even a fan controller to keep the noise down when you’re sleeping or watching a movie. Whereas this might have been a unique thing not too long ago, today it’s become commonplace. Everybody’s got that. Even case manufacturers are banking on it, giving you big fan mounts, side panel windows and maybe even a built-in fan controller. When it’s come to that, how are you supposed to make your rig unique?

That’s where two products from Sunbeam come in: The Chameleon and the Lightbus. What’s so unique about them? How about any color imaginable in your PC? How about a fan controller and CCFL controller in one, with hundreds, YES HUNDREDS, of effects at your fingertips? Are you interested? I thought you’d be…"

Hey Everyone,
We've posted a new review on 3DXtreme.net - Sunbeam Samurai and Transformer ATX Cases.

Here's a clip:
"Today 3DXtreme has the pleasure of looking at the two newest products in the Sunbeam family. These products are the mid-tower Samurai ATX Case and the full-tower Transformer ATX Case. Neither Case comes with an included Power Supply Unit, however the pricing reflects that at mere $56 and $99."

HL2 $29.90 Ends Tomorrow
Posted By: Dean Nottis
On: Friday, March 11, 2005
Overview
In 1998 Half-Life sent a shock through the game industry with a combination of pounding action and continuous, immersive storytelling...

Now in 2004 Gordon Freeman returns to an alien-infested Earth in the highly anticipated sequel Half-Life 2! More ways to die... More reasons to live. By taking the suspense, challenge and visceral charge of the original, and adding startling new realism and responsiveness Half-Life 2 opens the door to a world where the player's presence affects everything around him. The player again picks up the crowbar of research scientist Gordon Freeman, who finds himself on an alien-infested Earth being picked to the bone, its resources depleted, its populace dwindling. Freeman is thrust into the unenviable role of rescuing the world from the wrong he unleashed back at Black Mesa. And a lot of people.. people he cares about are counting on him.

Hey Everyone,
We've posted a new review on 3DXtreme.net - Jetart JACSH1 Universal VGA Cooler. Todd, one of our readers put this review together after a recent purchase. We liked what he did and decided to ask if he was interested in taking on some of the Accessory reviews we get at 3DXtreme.net. Look for more reviews from Todd in the upcoming weeks!!

"Today 3DXtreme is reviewing the Jetart JACSH1 Universal VGA Cooler. With video processing units becoming more complex than CPU’s, users are wanting better solutions to cool their video cards. The old days of passive heatsinks are long gone, and active cooling solutions need to be better and better designed to deal with the high temperatures put out by today’s VPU’s. Enter the JACSH1 by Jetart. This is a relatively new cooler on the market, and comes complete with everything you need to get that hot video card down to reasonable temperatures. But how well does it work? Let’s find out…"

Hey Everyone,
We've posted a new review on 3DXtreme.net - eVGA & Chaintech 6600GT PCI-Express Card Review.

"Today 3DXtreme has the great pleasure of reviewing two mainstream video cards based on the nVidia 6600GT chip. Our samples are provided by eVGA and Chaintech, two of the industry leaders among video card and hardware manufacturers. With the emergence of high end video cards from nVidia and ATI, such as the 6800 and X800 series, the mainstream has largely been forgotten. Let’s take a look at these two video cards and see how they measure up in today’s gaming applications and a little later we’ll have a look at these cards in an SLI configuration and see how well they stack up against a current high end card.

Here's a clip:
"Today 3DXtreme is reviewing two of the latest Cases in the NZXT family, the Nemesis and the Nemesis Elite. Nowadays the Case that is used is just as important as the individual parts that are installed into it. NZXT offers some of the most unique looking Cases on the market while never leaving the product feel stripped of useful features. These new Cases add to the ever growing product line at NZXT.com."
