Nifty Gadgets

Included with the case is a flexible touch light which can be powered via 12V Molex or the internal USB pins on the motherboard. This light is a good idea as the P190 is certainly a large case which you probably won’t want to move around a lot, so if you were upgrading your computer on your bedroom floor or under your desk, then this light would certainly help you out. My only fault is that this light is powered by an internal USB or molex, so your computer would have to be on for you to use this light- not an ideal situation.

The little black storage box in my opinion is a great idea. I now have space to store all of my spare case screws and small accessories. However I’m not totally keen on the idea since the box seems rather small for most accessories. A better idea would be to mount a horizontal drawer in the place of the 3 ½ floppy bay- like on the Antec Super Lanboy. This way a lot more could be stored and it would also be a lot safer.

The 3 speed fan controller on the back is a great little feature. This simple little switch box makes it super easy to adjust the speed of the side and top fans.

The two little ‘Trap Doors’ between the two chambers of the case make cable routing very easy. With the sheer mass of cables coming from the two power supply’s these little holes make cable routing much easier. Also, if you were water cooling in this case, these would probably help you out loads for routing tubes as well as the two holes on the back that are designed to route water cooling tubes.

On the edges closest to the side panel there is felt tape. This felt tape helps to reduce noise from the side panels rattling against the chassis.

CoolIT Domino i5 Testing

Back in July this year we tested the CoolIT watercooling kit using a heavily overclocked AMD 7750+ BE. It’s performance really surprised us with it absolutely caning the other coolers in question. However, processors have quickly moved on since July and we’ve got the likes of the Intel Core i7 and recent i5 dominating the market. For this reason, we thought some i5 testing using our trusty CoolIT Domino was in order. Let’s see if the performance from the Domino still survives in this day and age…
