A simple setup process, a variety of audio/video connections, and intuitive on-screen controls are just a few features that will make the device enjoyable for users of any tech ability. [link]

 Image The Thermaltake promotional material claims the BigTyp 14 Pro is "completely silent", which just isn't true at any speed with the included fan. Despite this, I was quite pleased with the performance and noise level at the lowest speed setting.

Choiix C-HL01-WS Air-Through Laptop Cooling Pad
Review Image During testing, the temperatures of the processor, graphics card, and hard drive were all lowered thanks to the use of the Choiix C-HL01-WS Air-Through laptop cooling pad, although none of the improvements were extreme. Other positives include an integrated 4-port USB hub and a pair of 60mm fans that can be turned on or off with a push of a button. [link]
