Conclusion

Aesthetically the In Win Commander is spot on, it’s one of the best looking units I’ve seen a while. It adopts a unique style, which works. The cabling too is very good, with it being fully modular, you can select only the cables you really require – avoiding having loose cabling in your system. The amount of connectors too is very good, there’s enough, but not too many either.

In testing we found the stability to be a very good factor of the power supply, it was very tight to its rated voltages which indicated a stable power supply. However the testing wasn’t all good, we identified a couple of problems during testing regarding the power factor, which certainly wasn’t the best we’ve witnessed. This shows the unit not to being using all the power drawn, therefore not being totally efficient.

All in all, if you’re a gamer you’ll love this PSU as factors like efficiency and noise probably won’t be too much of a concern. However, for the more ‘picky’ of us, there are some better PSU’s to be had for a much lower price.

I am therefore awarding the In Win Commander 3/5.

3 Star Award

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.
