After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain.  I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain.  If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration. 

Please update your bookmarks and be sure to visit the new and improved Ninjalane at Hardwareasylum.com

    The minimum power supply wattage goes up every couple of years. From 350W to 550W, then to 620W+ and now, the norm is becoming 750Watts or greater for the enthusiast build.

  • DFI LanParty Dark X48 Motherboard Review

    Published: Wednesday, August 13, 2008 - Motherboards DFI LanParty Dark X48 Motherboard Review

    After taking a good look at the DFI LP DK X48 T2R we found that it has performance, overclocking, and value. We can easily say that it’s worth the money. Yes, the X48 version is not a giant jump from the X38. Still in the end it is good to see a lower priced X48 board on the market that can take your hardware to the limit, without doing the same to your budget.

    I have had the pleasure of handling many cases in my life and Lian Li are among my favorites, their build quality is excellent and the fit and finish is incredible. The majority of cases on the market are based on budget concerns above all else and the compromises show. Lian Li makes no compromises in offering their customers some of the most gorgeously crafted cases made today.

  • VisionTek ATI HD 3870 X2 OC Review

    Published: Monday, July 21, 2008 - Video VisionTek ATI HD 3870 X2 OC Review

    The VisionTek HD 3870 X2 Overclocked Edition is one of the most impressive looking cards you can buy. The copper heatsink is on par with some of the top aftermarket cooling systems and the fans run at a reasonable volume even under load. Ultimately you do pay a little more for factory overclocking and the upgraded cooling, and this card is definitely on top of the 38xx family.

    When it comes to computer cases you can find just about anything. Some will be plain industrial style cases and meet the minimum recommended specs while others will be lavish modified cases in strange shapes like pyramids, girls, or made from 30 some high quality case fans and held together with zip ties.
