Review: Fractal Design Define XL R2

Posted on April 1, 2013 by Matt Bach

Fractal Design’s Define XL R2 is an EATX chassis with a deceptively simple exterior that hides a wealth of features that will satisfy almost any user. This chassis has great cooling potential with seven different 140/120mm fan mounting locations (including one on the side panel), but also has several acoustic dampening features that make it a great choice for those looking for a quiet system.

In this article, we will be taking a look at the changes to determine the effect on both the overall cooling performance and noise levels.

Product Qualification: Intel Remote Management Module

Posted on September 29, 2011 by Matt Bach

With Puget System’s recent launch of the Summit series of servers, we have begun to discover a whole new series of computer accessories. One of the more exciting is hardware-level remote management chips like the Intel AXXRMM4LITE that are available for use on a select number of server-class motherboards. These chips allow for remote management of the server (including KVM functionality over LAN) without the need to be at the physical computer for anything short of hardware replacement. In this article we will be reviewing this module for use in server-type systems.

Product Roundup: Kingwin 3.5inch Hot Swap Racks

Product Review: Asus ASMB5-iKVM

Posted on August 8, 2011 by Matt Bach

The Asus ASMB5-iKVM is a BIOS-level remote management solution, allowing it to work at any point; whether the system is in the OS, the BIOS, or even halted due to a bluescreen. Most current remote management solutions are software-based, so they only work when an OS is running, which makes the Asus ASMB5-iKVM an attractive solution for network administrators and many home users alike.

Case Comparison: Antec P182 vs. P183

Posted on June 26, 2009 by Matt Bach

There has been a lot of talk about whether or not the new Antec P183 is truly an improvement over the old Antec P182. The P182 has long been one of our favorite cases at Puget Systems, so there is some resistance to the P183 taking over the role as the flagship case in our lineup. The question is: is the P183 truly superior to the P182, or is the latest revision of the P180 series a step in the wrong direction?
