Most Favorable Review

Great, but bright

COOLER MASTER TLF-S82-ER 80mm Red LED Case Cooling Fan
COOLER MASTER TLF-S82-ER 80mm Red LED Case Cooling Fan

Pros: Almost no noise, super quiet, atractive LEDs.

Cons: Not a huge amount of air-flow, three or more of these fans and your case will be brighter than your monitor at night.

Overall Review: These fans are realy nice, I love mine. I have a Mountain Mods Twice7 chassis, so I installed 2 80mms and 3 120mms of this same fan, when I powered it on I realized I couldn't take it to a lan party becuase it would tick everyone off. Two are great, but when you install 5, look out sun you have a new competitor.

Perfect

ARCTIC COOLING AVC-NV5R3 ARCTIC Ceramic NV Silencer Rev.3
ARCTIC COOLING AVC-NV5R3 ARCTIC Ceramic NV Silencer Rev.3

Pros: Extremely quiet, great job cooling, vents all hot air OUT of the chassis.

Cons: takes an extra PCI slot (like all good custom vga coolers do) so don't expect to use the slot underneath it.

Overall Review: I am so pleased with this cooler that I hated to replace my 7800GT with duel 7900GTs because there are no custom coolers for them yet. My pc ran great with this on my cards, now with two stock 7900GTs my system overheats after 1/2 hour of BF2.

Great Value

Thermaltake TR2 W0070 430W ATX 12V 2.2  Power Supply
Thermaltake TR2 W0070 430W ATX 12V 2.2 Power Supply

Pros: Cheap price, stable power, nice sleeving, moderatly quiet, the perfect low budget power supply.

Cons: Only 430w (don't expect to be running your 7900GTX SLI systems stably)

Overall Review: Runs my Koolance watercooled system with a 6600gt without a hitch. I love the black sleeving, looks good with almost any color theme. I've sleeved power supplies before and it takes a long time and generaly ruins a few connectors. If you have a system not running SLI or a bunch of extras, this is a great option.
