The Nintendo DSi is the answer to the PSP-3000, the new hardware variant from Sony, and Nintendo is aiming to get the fresh handheld as quickly as possible to the West. The new hardware
specifications include not one but two cameras, both with 0.3 megapixel capacities and a larger screen; the whole device is smaller and lighter. Another change is that the old Game Boy Advance port was dropped to be replaced by an SD card slot. The DSi will also be able to get online and download music and videogames.

Satoru Iwata, the president and the Chief Executive Officer of Nintendo, said that the Nintendo DSi is supposed to arrive in the West before the autumn of next year, which means that the console will be a Japan exclusive for about one year, as the official release is scheduled for this November.

For the Japan release, Nintendo has prepared 200,000 units of the DSi and 100,000 more will be made available if stores run out. But the handheld is still selling very well in the West, mostly in North America, and Nintendo does not want to cannibalize its own sales by offering a new hardware variant in a period when it manages to attract customers with the hardware already available.Iwata was quoted as saying during a press conference that “Specific plans will be unveiled by our local subsidiaries, but an autumn or year-end launch would probably be too late”. At the moment, Nintendo is the most successful of the three major console creators, with both the DSi and the Wii selling very well on all markets. The company has recently revealed record financial results while also saying that overall expectations for the year would be reduced to reflect current market conditions.

When you're looking for a silent cooler for your high-end PC or you want to overclock your CPU to it's maximum sooner or later you'll find yourself buying an expensive water based cooling system or a huge heat pipe cooler. In these days coolers like these are becoming easier to find. Some brands are a bit more interesting to the consumers though, because of their high availability, good reputation and balanced price (if possible), and that's the case with Cooler Master and their new cooler Hyper Z600, which very recently became available.

Cooler Master are the definite veterans in cooling technology. The brand is well known around the world and their products can be found in most PC stores. Aside from CPU coolers and full PC cooling solutions, the company also manufactures PC cases, PSUs, modding accessories, and many other things, and is a partner of NVIDIA and many other manufacturers, assisting them in the manufacture of coolers, cases and accessories for their products. Adding those things together makes the expectations for a top quality product logical. And that's exactly what Hyper Z600 is.Cooler Master Hyper Z600 comes well packed in it's cardboard box, wrapped with even more cardboard and a fine synthetic fiber, which helps the radiator fins stay intact even during it's extraction from the box.The size of Hyper Z600 isn't accidental. It's meant to be passive. It's no coincidence that it comes w/o a ventilator and that it has such dimestions. In a modern PC case the CPU cooler rests just below the PSU and often next to another ventilator that pulls air outside the box from behind. The X-Shape design of the Cooler Master Hyper Z600 allows easy airflow from every direction, so the whole work of creating a steady airflow to cool the CPU goes to the PSU this time (especially modern PSUs with a 120mm vent inside) and the rear vent. Of course the 6 heat pipes "take the blame" for supplying the fins with equal heat from each side.

The BeQuiet series of power supplies are probably the most tested and reviewed PSU's ever in the history.The PSU's come from the German based company Listan. These guys are consistently trying to push the envelope with proper marketing, good development, proper after sales and innovation. Four key items to be successful in this segment of the business. Granted, power supplies are good business, the intense explosion of brands that are selling/re-selling/re-badging PSU's is insane. If I had to mention every brand that is selling a PSU then this page would not be long enough. Quite interesting when you realize there's only a hand-full of manufacturers actually producing the power supplies themselves.

The BeQuiet series continuously falls into that "rocks" category. Their rock solid BeQuiet series is about to be updated to a new revision. And at that very moment I was like hmm what on earth could they improve ? Well, before we get into that .. let me just say .. they did. On the next pages we'll show you a fully-fledged review on their all new BeQuiet Dark Power Pro "First Class" edition of power supplies. A PSU series that is quite efficient, stable and so darn quiet .. that I measured over and over again .. up-to a point where I was flabbergasted.
