Samsung 730MP LCD TV/Monitor @ TrustedReviews

“Round the back you’ll find a raft of connection options that would make the average TV green with envy. For the PC you get a choice of analogue D-Sub or DVI connections. You also get RCA composite, S-Video, component and an RGB capable SCART socket. In fact, the only connection not here is HDMI. Also round the back are connectors for the integrated analogue TV Tuner and the FM tuner. There’s also a headphone socket, though this might have been more conveniently placed at the front. The good news is that according to the spec sheet, the DVI port is the High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) ready, so it be able to display Sky’s High Definiton broadcasts starting in 2006.”

Danger Den TDX Waterblock Review @ OCModShop

“Instead of using their traditional maze flow design Danger Den has made something completely different. The TDX is similar to the RBX block from Danger Den, although modified for use with only 2 hose barbs. The area of water impingement features a wave shaped set of channels with cupping divots that force water to convect with the surface via cavitations of the blocks surface right over the CPU. This design greatly increases surface area at the waters impingement, as well as increasing heat transfer by using higher pressure forced convection.”
