Finished Job

Upon completing the installation I couldn’t wait to see how the Element T sounded and performed. Thankfully, it started up first time and sounded relatively quiet even with a 200mm fan whirring around all the time. The red LEDs behind the On/Off button and Reset button are very bright and all of the LEDs look pretty impressive with the light off, especially the 200mm fan’s red LEDs as they take up nearly half of the top of the case.

Element T Review

Conclusion

Based on looks, the Element T is definitely targeted at gamers and overclockers/"Pros". I came to this conclusion based on the amount of cooling available for the case (upto five fans, two of them being 200mm and over). The Element T offers a lot of space for fans, some pretty cool LEDs, easy to install hard drives, cd drives etc. All of this bundled, with the fact that it is a very clean looking case, costs a minimal amount of just £57. The Element T is currently available in the EU but will be available in the UK by the end of August. A brilliant budget case if you are looking for a case to withstand all your overclocking needs.

There is only one problem I can think of. The case look a whole lot better if the front panel was made of a stronger material and was painted in maybe the same colour as the rest of the case (black) as the front is currently a dark gray and doesn’t look too appealing.

Bottom Line: For less than £60, the Element T provides all the features you need in a case: lots of space, security, relatively compact and it looks great, so for the price it’s definitely worth a look.

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.
