The Benefits Of Google Apps
If you own a business, then there is a chance that you will be looking for a way in which you can share your files so that people can work remotely. This type of working is becoming more and more popular in the modern world, with companies realizing that they don't really have any need to pay to run an office when their employees could do exactly the same work from the comfort of their own home. This would save money for the company, and would also mean that the employee could cut down on the amount of time that they spent travelling to and from the office, as well as removing travel expenses. Here, we will explore more about just some of the benefits of Google Apps.

Case Mod Friday: Smokey Green Giant
Welcome to another Case Mod Friday showcase! This week we have Derrick Ubbink’s Smokey Green Giant build. Here is what he had to say about it: The inspiration for this build comes from the frustration of dealing with small cases while water cooling. I set out to find a case that was simply huge and didn't have terrible outer aesthetics. I found the Fulmo GT met these requirements so quickly ordered one and set to work gutting it and making it to my liking. In the end I went with a dual loop water cooled setup, one for CPU the other GPU, each cooled by a single 420mm Alphacool radiator. And what started out as a TRI-SLI 3GB GTX 580 rig quickly became QUAD-SLI 580s and finally I went for a pair of GTX Titans. I'm super happy with the results and will just be enjoying it for awhile!

Noctua Fans Review
So you’re putting together your all out custom build. You’ve got the best processor, motherboard, memory, GPU, and case you can buy. Now is the time you’re going to have to start thinking about fans and cooling. Whether it be air or water, you will need fans. This is often forgotten till the end, and this item is crucial to bringing all those bits together and helping them to perform to their fullest. While there are many options when it comes to choosing fans, it is very important to be selective in order to get the right fan for your configuration as well as a good quality fan. Today we are going to be taking a look at a broad selection of 9 fans from one of the most lauded fan manufacturers, Noctua.

What You Need To Know about the Xbox One
Microsoft’s Xbox Reveal event was held today at Microsoft’s Redmond campus. If you missed it we have all of the information on the next generation Xbox console. After months of speculation the official name of the console will be Xbox One. The Xbox One is made to be an “all-in-one” box that interacts with all the devices in your home theater. Microsoft’s Don Mattrick said the core strategy is “simple, instant and complete.” The Xbox One will be available “later this year” and will ship with a new Kinect motion camera and controller. Read on as we go over some of the new features.

Rosewill T600N Wireless Router Review
In this modern area of wireless networking, the market is flooded with devices with advanced feature sets, sometimes not performing as well as others. This trade-off can be frustrating. Sometimes, the basic features are all one really needs in a WiFi router, and the Rosewill T600N fills that gap. It’s an 802.11a/b/g/n router that can do 300 Mbps per frequency and even features standard replaceable antennas for its 2.4 GHz radio. ThinkComputers takes a look at this sub $60 unit that frequently can be found online for under $50!

SilverStone DS322 Dual Bay USB 3.0 Enclosure Review
Sometimes it can be hard to find an easy, affordable and reliable solution for external PC backups in one product. I have used several HDD enclosures and NAS products from several different makers and never really fell in love with any of them. Most of them have extremely complicated menus that you have to sift through to try and figure out how to change the RAID setup of the device. Then you have to wait several hours just for it to format a few hundred Gigs of space. In the past, when deciding on a RAID capable enclosure you really need to prioritize what is important to you and ask yourself a few questions. How much does it cost? How reliable it is? How easy is it to use? Keep all of those questions in mind as you read this review and I think you will be pleasantly surprised with this enclosure.

What To Expect From The Next iPhone
If Apple follows their typical release schedule, the new iPhone will be available sometime this summer, and the rumors are already flying about what that's going to contain. With rival phones from Android stepping up their game, will Apple feel the pressure to do something completely new and spectacular? Maybe it'll be like the 4S, which made small improvements to the iPhone 4 but didn't break out of the mold too much. Nobody really knows, as Apple hasn't provided us with any official information yet, but there are some of the speculated changes.

Case Mod Friday: Amethyst
Welcome to another Case Mod Friday showcase! This week we have Anthony Hick's Amethyst build. He has actually sent us shots of his entire setup! Here is what he has to say about his build: My first build, designed for gaming. Essentially started out as a budget build, but I've been adding upgrades as I am able to afford them.

Spire TherMax Pro CPU Cooler

A Closer Look

The TherMax Pro is a fairly typical-looking 90mm heatpipe cooler. The radiator consists of 45 stamped brushed aluminum fins, crimped onto the U-shaped heatpipes. The fins are quite thin and easily bent, as you can see in the photo.

Rather than protruding from the top of the cooler, the heatpipe ends are covered by the top fin, which has the Spire logo stamped into it.

The Spire 90mm fan is UV reactive. It is held in place by wire retainers. There are anti-vibration bushings mounted on the fan to help prevent noise.

The TherMax Pro has three 8mm U-shaped heatpipes. They are buffed to a high shine. If I’m not mistaken, this is the first 90-92mm cooler with 8mm heatpipes. They cover a large area of the base.

The heatpipes directly touch the CPU heatspreader. Spire calls their version of this technology “Direct-Touch Heatpipe” (DTHP). The technology allows for using an aluminum base to cut cost and weight, but still have the superior heat transfer properties of copper.

The base has been lapped to a high shine. This is by far the shiniest exposed heatpipe base I’ve seen. Actually, most of them weren’t lapped at all.

Hardware is included for LGA 775, LGA 1366, LGA 1156, and AM3/AM2. Spire also thoughtfully included a fan controller for manual control of the TherMax Pro’s fan speed if you so desire.

    “Ambient room temperature was 72F.” I think you should be consistent and report the temperatures all in the same unit. Kind of confusing, at first i misread and thought u tested at like extreme temperatures.

    $35 isn't that bad but it would be price a little less.

    Thats why he put a “F” symbol for Fahrenheit.

    If it helps, 72°F is about 22°C.

  • lewislau
    No, i know how to convert from farenheit to celcius (Farehneit-32 * 5/9), just saying he should have put everything in celsius to stay consistent. If you look at his graphs they are celsius, and if you're skimming through, the 72F throws you off.

    True however the value of the ambient temperature isn't what matters.
  • lewislau
    It does affect the temperatures of the cpu though, because if the ambient temperature is higher, less heat can be transferred from the sink to the environment and therefore, it will be less efficient.
  • lewislau
    It does matter, because the ambient temperature changes the efficiency of the heatsink to dissipate heat to the environment

    What I meant to say is that it doesn't matter if the ambient temperature is in Fahrenheit or Celsius; that is irrelevant. The temperature results of the cooler is what matters most.

    This isn't a review about whether or not the ambient temperature should be mentioned in Fahrenheit or Celsius LOL
