Looking back to not long ago I never really would have thought computer systems might need a 1000Watt Power Supply, I mean that’s a whole lot of power and we’re into the abbreviation range now, we’d call it 1kw instead of writing out 1000Watt!

The reason I was thinking of this is because I just finished up a review of an Ultra X3 1000Watt or 1Kw power supply and as I was testing it and even writing the review it dawned on me how fast things have changed in the PC world that we demand that much power.

And that’s nothing, Ultra just released the worlds first 16Kw power supply as well, that’s 1600Watts folks, I mean you need a dedicated breaker just for that in your house to run full tilt.  The boys over at HardOCP or actually Hard Enthusiast just reviewed it and found it to be excellent as well as a whole lotta power!

I mean think about it, I was curious so I checked out my fridge and it runs at 517.50 watts, it’s mid-range model, not cheap not fancy just the basic average fridge. So that 16Kw PSU is like running more than 3 refrigerators!! Of course that’s only if you are fully using the entire 1600Watts, and then in reality you are pulling more than that because it takes more watts than those 1600 to make that 1600. You’re converting your household AC into DC to power your computer… I mean wow, maybe buying stock in the electric company might help offset some of those electric bills eh?

Dunno just my thoughts for the day..

Hey check it out, TechBurgh has a little write up about DragonSteelMods…

TechBurgh is a Pittsburgh based blog tech news blog, and if you didn’t know already that’s where I’m from..

but stop by and check them out!

Andy the owner seem really cool as well, we’ve chatted a few times in email… he’s just starting out with it so he could use a little support and link love from anyone willing to give it out! hint-hint

Well I’ve been hiding out for the last few days and re-designing DragonSteelMods website.

The original layout was just something I did to get it up and running basically and just never really had the time to mess with it and also I did try and try and try but I could never get it to work out correctly, there was also something goofy wrong with it, be it on the front end or the back end of the site. For example I had one template done and it looked awesome on the front end but when I got to the back end of the site, everything that was white turned black, and well black text on black background just doesn’t work very well does it?

Anyway, stop on over and check it out, I’m going to be upgrading the comments and adding them back in as well, so this should work out well!!

Pretty much everyone has heard of a Roomba, the little Robot Vacuum that became so popular all over the place. Well I’ve had a Cleanmate QQ-1 Robot Vacuum for about two years now and I love it… What? You’ve never heard of a Cleanmate? Well then you’ll like this review, it’s of the newest Cleanmate Robot Vacuum, the QQ-2 model. It’s essentially an upgrade to the QQ-1 model, with a home charging base that the QQ-2 goes back to and charges by itself, then it goes on cleaning your house till you tell it to stop. I’ve got three kids and two cats, so I’ve put the Cleanmate QQ-2 through quite a bit of work cleaning and I have to say that it actually performs better than the QQ-1 version, I love this little robot just as much as the first model… Yes I love a robot, it’s just so cute..

Stop drop on by over at DSM and check out this great little Robot that gives the Roomba a run for it’s money…

Well I finally got my review of the Airsoft M14 Sniper Rifle up at DSM…

It’s from our friends at HobbyTron, you can look to the right over there to check out their RC and Airsoft blogs to see all the newest products they have coming out if you wish…

Anyway, for the low price of $36.95, I found the Sniper Rifle to be lots of fun, but of course it did have a few drawbacks, which is to be expected for something priced so low.. so read the review to find out what my thought were…
