Hardware Roundup for Dec. 1

This year has flown by so fast; I can’t believe we are in December already! Now it’s time to start thinking about treating yourself, or treating others with cool tech toys, and these reviews should help. For great air CPU cooling, you can check out the review at Xtreme Computing today. The VapoChill Micro is tilted, like many other heatsinks now adays, to provide better heat dissipation. Scythe has just released a new heatsink also, called the Samurai Z. Check out the review at Pro-Clockers to get the low down on that one.

If you are are still looking for a 1GB memory kit, 3D Xtreme takes a look at the new OCZ PC-3200 XTC set. We took a look at that set last month, and it proved to be a great set for not much money. Tweak News is taking a look at an interesting PSU by Zalman. It’s interesting, because I had no clue that Zalman made PSU’s! It looks like a solid deal though, so definitely check that one out.
