Both these processor coolers are very similar to one another in many aspects: design, number of heatpipes, size and weight. However, their cooling efficiency is dramatically different. And our today’s article will explain why.

This product is based on Intel Z77 Express chipset and its functionality is significantly expanded due to a large number of onboard controllers. This mainboard belongs to the “Republic of Gamers” series and therefore supports a lot of additional features and technologies. However, we uncovered some minor issues, which, unfortunately, seem to be a little too numerous for a mainboard of this rank.

NZXT is an interesting manufacturer. Each company that designs and manufactures cases has their strengths and weaknesses, things they're good at and things that need work, but NZXT is unique in that they're very closely related to iBuyPower (one of the biggest system building boutiques and one that's starting to threaten established brands) and tend to vend some of the most cost effective enclosures to boutiques in general, for better or worse.

Our experiences with NZXT have been mixed. The H2 when it was released suffered from a serious design flaw that drove up internal thermals (an unmarked revision was silently released later that largely resolved those problems), and the Switch 810 was a good but not great enclosure that couldn't quite live up to its promise. But today NZXT is launching the Phantom 820, a case aimed squarely at the top end of the case market where stalwarts like the Thermaltake Level 10 GT, Corsair Obsidian 800D, and SilverStone FT02 reside. It has a lot to live up to, but most impressively of all...it might actually do it.

I'll get this out of the way: the Phantom 820 is not coming cheap. NZXT is listing an MSRP of $249, placing it squarely into competition with the highest end enthusiast cases, and it's a pretty bold move from a company that's usually been more about raw value than premium gear. I'm of two minds when it comes to this decision; I think it's a good choice for the company since price is often the best way to give a premium product that extra kick (just ask Apple), but it's ultimately bad for the end consumer who wants and should get great products at reasonable prices.

<div><span style="font-size: small; ">The new release of Trinity processors on the desktop opens up a cascade of issues when it comes to choosing a new motherboard for your Trinity system. The main point of confusion comes in the face of chipsets, whereby multiple sockets and processor families can use the same chipsets and each motherboard manufacturer has a different naming scheme in order to differentiate the two. Both Intel and AMD have been guilty of this in the past, but in the past 18 months we had no real cause for concern - until now. With that, I give the first FM2 motherboard we are testing here at AnandTech, the ASUS F2A85-V Pro. This full sized ATX board is aiming for the enthusiast in the Trinity space.</span></div> <div><span style="font-size: small; "><br /> </span></div> <div><span style="font-size: small; "><a href="http://www.anandtech.com/show/6360/asus-f2a85v-pro-review-a-look-at-fm2-with-a85x" target="_blank">Read more...</a></span></div>

<div><span style="font-size: small; ">At a pace just shy of a card a month, NVIDIA has been launching the GeForce 600 series part by part for over the last half year now. What started with the GeForce GTX 680 in March and most recently saw the launch of the GeForce GTX 660 will finally be coming to an end today with the 8th and what is likely the final retail GeForce 600 series card, the GeForce GTX 650 Ti.</span></div> <div><span style="font-size: small; "><br /> </span></div> <div><span style="font-size: small; ">Last month we saw the introduction of NVIDIA&rsquo;s 3rd Kepler GPU, GK106, which takes its place between the high-end GK104 and NVIDIA&rsquo;s low-end/mobile gem, GK107. At the time NVIDIA launched just a single GK106 card, the GTX 660, but of course NVIDIA never launches just one product based on a GPU. So it should come as no great surprise that NVIDIA has one more desktop GK106 card, and that is the GeForce GTX 650 Ti.</span></div> <div><span style="font-size: small; "><br /> </span></div> <div><span style="font-size: small; ">The GTX 650 Ti is the aptly named successor to 2011&rsquo;s GeForce GTX 550 Ti, and will occupy the same $150 price point that the GTX 550 Ti launched into. It will sit between the GTX 660 and the recently launched GTX 650, and despite the much closer similarities to the GTX 660 NVIDIA is placing the card into their GTX 650 family and pitching it as a higher performance alternative to the GTX 650. With that in mind, what exactly does NVIDIA&rsquo;s final desktop consumer launch of 2012 bring to the table? Let&rsquo;s find out.</span></div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div><a href="http://www.anandtech.com/show/6359/the-nvidia-geforce-gtx-650-ti-review" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: small; ">Read more...</span></a></div> <div>&nbsp;</div>

Given just how long Logitech has been a vendor of all manner of desktop peripherals, it may come as a surprise that they've taken this long to release a keyboard with mechanical switches. Historically Logitech keyboards have employed membrane switches across the board, but Cherry MX mechanical switches have been picking up quite a bit of steam among enthusiasts lately. Mechanical keyboards are traditionally a fair sight more expensive than membrane-style keyboards owing to the spring-actuated switch in every single key, but the tactile feedback, durability, and overall comfort is undeniable. Consumers have largely spoken, and now Logitech is answering with the G710+.

At the same time, Logitech has also released an MMO-oriented mouse alongside growing ranks like Corsair's M90 and Razer's Naga. MMO mice are remarkable for including a staggering number of configurable buttons on the left side of the mouse, beneath the thumb, but with varying degrees of success. Ironically, with the G600, Logitech may very well have produced an MMO mouse so intuitive that its cavalcade of hotkeys could easily replace a more complex gaming keyboard.

Today we are going to talk about eight graphics accelerators with proprietary designs that we managed to get in for review. All of them are based on the recently launched Nvidia GeForce GTX 660 Ti GPU.
