Lian Li PC-A75

CNET Rating7.0

November 20th, 2012 - Lian Li still builds the most elegant cases in the market. The PC-A75's biggest problem is that for AU$100 less, you can get a more innovative, refined steel case whose only sin is that it's heavier.
Corsair Vengeance C70

CNET Rating7.5

November 19th, 2012 - We're quite sure that the Vengeance C70 will be home to some great mods — considering the price, though, we'd have hoped for some more fit and finish.
Corsair Obsidian 550D

CNET Rating8.5

November 16th, 2012 - It's clear that a lot of thought went in to the Obsidian 550D. If your ultimate goal is quietness and you can get away with a mid-tower, definitely give this one a look.
Intel SSD 335 Series (240GB)

CNET Rating8.0

November 14th, 2012 - While there are better performing drives out there, the 335 represents the peace-of-mind choice when buying an SSD.
BitFenix Shinobi XL

CNET Rating7.8

November 13th, 2012 - The Shinobi XL has quite a bit of flexibility if you choose to build up a highly custom rig — we'd just like a little more attention spent on the fit and finish.
OCZ Vertex 4 M (512GB)

CNET Rating8.5

November 9th, 2012 - OCZ's Everest 2 controller is clearly paying dividends with the Vertex 4 — this is an excellent drive indeed. 1
Strontium Hawk 120GB

CNET Rating8.0

November 6th, 2012 - Strontium's SF2281-based SSD brings faster writes than your standard SandForce SSD.
Cooler Master Elite 120 Advanced

CNET Rating7.0

October 29th, 2012 - At AU$59, it's hard to complain too much about the Elite 120 Advanced's lack of flexibility. A mid-ranged system should be perfectly happy inside it. Still, unless you're space challenged, it's worth springing more cash on BitFenix's Prodigy instead.
Cooler Master HAF XM

CNET Rating8.5

October 17th, 2012 - We like the HAF XM; at AU$149, it gives you huge bang for buck, is well constructed and supports a variety of builds. Recommended.
Gigabyte Z77X-UP4TH

User Rating1.0

September 20th, 2012 - The UP series comes with an in-built question: are you happy to spend more money for the best quality components, or would you prefer to spring for boards that offer better bang for the buck? 1
