OCIA.net takes a look at the NZXT Lexa Blackline Case in their latest review.
"The Lexa Blackline is a nice looking rig. The window could be a little smaller, to hide some of the wire mess, but not a big deal. The red LED fans are a change from the blue ones most rigs use, and the black/red combination is a cool look. I ran the front, rear, and side 120mm fans with 12v, and the trio are surprisingly quiet. So quiet that I may not change them to 5v in the future as I usually do. Keep in mind if you run them at 5v, the LEDs probably won’t light up much. The red HDD led is different…goes very well with the theme."

Zerotherm CF800 and CF900 CPU Coolers @ Pro-Clockers
http://www.pro-clockers.com/review.php?id=244
Quote: The enormous amount of heat produced by today's dual and quad-core processors makes purchasing a third-party CPU cooler almost a necessity for any user building a performance computer system. Most quality heatsinks will cost around $50, but Zerotherm's CF800 and CF900 heatsinks won't break the bank at $29.99 a piece, and should provide PC builders with a cost-effective solution to cool today's hottest CPUs. The real questions to answer in this review are if the copper-based CF900 can outperform the aluminum-based CF800, and whether there is a big enough difference between them and the stock Intel cooler to warrant the expense. We'll let the results speak for themselves.
NVIDIA Mid Range 8600 GT vs 7600 GT Performance Comparison
"Only a few weeks ago we compared the new 8500 GT to the cheaper and
older 7300 GT video card and found the new NVIDIA budget card to be
average at best. This week we compare the mid range offering, a
Sparkle 8600 GT 256Mb which can be found at ~€100 in stores, to a
~€100 XFX 7600 GT 256Mb which comes with higher clock speeds. To round
up the comparison we threw in a factory overclocked Calibre 8600 GT
with 512Mb. Let's see if the new cards can beat the revived
price/performance champ."
