ASUS Xonar
HDAV1.3 Slim Audio Card
Over the course of
this review, my opinion of the Xonar HDAV1.3 Slim has
gradually improved alongside the software and drivers.
Initially I wasn't very impressed, but could see the
potential. With each updated version of the drivers and player
I've become just a little more comfortable with the card. I'm
happy to say that today I'm extremely satisfied with its
performance. [link]
Samson C01U USB Studio
Condenser Microphone
Given the
chance to play in a professional environment, I was quite
impressed with the Samson C01U USB studio condenser
microphone. As a desktop microphone it is definitely overkill,
like using a Peterbilt to go grocery shopping. But give it
more demanding tasks, such as audio reproduction and
broadcasting, the true power of the C01U can shine through.

Thermaltake
Element G Mid
Tower Case
The Element
G is a case that reflects a great deal of thought and effort
in its design. We have immense cooling, vast amounts of room
for hard drives and some of the best cable management you can
get. If you are looking for a mid tower case that will
accommodate the larger video cards in style, then the Element
G is right up your alley. [link]
