We can't show you NZXT's next-gen Phantom
Computex — The most interesting thing on display at NZXT's Computex showcase in Taipei, Taiwan, was the next-generation Phantom enclosure. This case is due out by the end of the year, and we weren't allowed to take pictures, because the design hasn't been finalized. We can, however, show you a shot of the existing model in a new color: gunmetal.

A touch of the bloat
When I say "bloatware," which Microsoft Office program springs to mind? Are you even wondering why I narrowed your choices to Office modules? Of course not. Because, while there have probably been more slothful programs in the course of history, none possess the ubiquity of Redmond's juggernaut. Well, Office would be a juggernaut if it could get its larded binaries off the couch and do some P90X until 2028. (And I'd pay real money to see Ballmer do the Tonydactyl.) In the almost 23 years since it debuted, Office has spawned feature after feature. I'd name some as examples, but I don't use any. Okay, I use tables in Word for ad copy formatting. Beyond that, I have no idea what's causing programs that parse words and numbers to crawl along like they're running on a 68020 emulating a 286. It's feature-creep run amok. Which is the way of Microsoft (and too many others to count, unfortunately).

Five fans cool Super Overclocked GeForce GTX 680
Computex — This year's Computex show was filled with hot-clocked graphics cards. Some featured custom cooling solutions with one fan, others had two, and a few even squeezed three fans onto a single card. Gigabyte's Super Overclocked GeForce GTX 680 beat them all, though. This triple-slot beast is lined with no fewer than five fans.

Silverstone's new tower comes in two flavors
Computex — Like Silverstone's Micro ATX Temjin TJ08-E chassis but wish it could hold full-sized motherboards? Good news. The TJ08-E's foundation has grown to accommodate ATX systems. Silverstone will be offering this new tower in two distinctly different flavors, both of which share the same internal structure.
The cases offer dual 180-mm fans up front and one 120-mm spinner at the rear. They feature the same improved dust filters as the Sugo SG09 . To increase airflow, the fan emplacements lack metal grills, and there's a larger ...
