Introduction

The new Giganta Lazer 4 is a mouse pad with a difference. It is made from a material that many companies have not used in their mouse pads before. It is part of a high performance mousing surface series that have been updated and are even better than before. 1MoreGame.co.uk also sells extremely good computer keyboards such as multimedia ones but they mainly deal with mouse pads.

Features:

  • The Giganta 4 measures 30cm x 24cm.
  • Its thickness is 0.6cm.
  • The weight of it all together is 0.3kg/ 0.6lb
  • The material used here is a sort of acrylic type plastic but very durable.

Packaging

The Giganta arrived fairly quickly and without any problems at all. When we received it, it was in a cardboard type of packet and was well sealed and protected from anything that could have fallen on it and damaged it. This packaging was very suitable as it was light, fairly small and very protective. There was bubble wrap around the product which was in a strong, black plastic wrapper. The only bad thing about the packaging is that it is quite dark and dull and could be mistaken for just a bag if it had not been inside the box.

External Impressions

The aesthetics of this product were fairly good. Its an odd colour, however looks quite smart with the logo in the corner and the rounded edges.

Testing/Usage

I tested the Lazer 4 using a Targus laptop mouse and a Logitech MX518 Gaming mouse. The MX518 glided across this mouse pad very smoothly and silently, however, when I used a normal Targus notebook mouse, this mouse pad didn’t seem to work to well on this mouse pad and often responded weirdly when moving my mouse towards the bottom of the pad.

We also tested this mouse pad on one of those old retro ball mice. Oddly, the Giganta performed better using a ball mouse than using a Lazer.

Conclusion

Here are some factors that I liked about the Giganta:

  • Doesn’t Slip
  • Good Durability and Strength

Here are some factors that I disliked about the Giganta 4

  • The Mouse Mat only supports certain mice due to different lasers.
  • Pricey at £21.99
  • Not Very Unique
  • Not very Comfortable

Due to these points, i’m going to reward the Giganta 4 an unfortunate 2/10.

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…

Coolink Lapchilla Laptop Cooler

Laptop technology has advanced greatly over the years with different releases of more powerful and compact systems constantly replacing the top notebooks of the year before. However, improving the performance of laptops usually has the knock on effect of producing more heat and so users will commonly seek advice in order to better cool their laptop. An often used approach to this problem is a Laptop Cooler.

However, most laptop coolers do more than simply draw hot air from your system. Many laptop coolers also have become a key feature in making the experience of using a portable machine at a desk more comfortable overall. Most coolers provide an elevated position for the actual laptop which usually features a sort of incline to the keyboard, thus allowing comfortable angles for typing during the longer sessions at the computer.

Many of you wouldn’t have heard of Zaward before and don’t feel disheartened if you’re one, they’re a fairly new company specializing in specifically computer cooling. One of the most innovative products in their catalogue is what’s called the ‘Golf Fan II’. Unlike most case fans, the Golf Fan 2 features a patent golf-ball-like texture on its fins which according to Zaward reduces noise levels by 15% at the same RPM and airflow. Now I’ve reviewed a lot of case fans in my day and many boast large claims like this, to find out whether Zaward’s marketing department are not just playing about, let’s put it to the test and find out whether it’s true to its word.
