The Package

The Nexus RX-8500 arrives in a shrink wrapped glossy cardboard box. The colour scheme represents Nexus’ company colours of black and orange which looks pretty classy. Entailed on the front are an image of the PSU in all its glory and a short list of the main product features.

On the back of the box an expanded version of the features is listed with a briefing about each one present. The connectors included on the RX-8500 and the power specifications can also be seen.

That’s not all the information though; on the left side of the box, two graphs represent the efficiency and noise levels of the unit under different loads. To ensure these tests are honest, Nexus have also included their testing methodology.

I’m sure you’ll agree, this box is very informative and has all the information anyone would need before making the all important decision on whether to purchase.

Unlike most Power Supplies, the Nexus comes with no accessories at all – although there are two Velcro cable tidies… if you call those accessories. You don’t even get a manual.

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.
