Transform and rool out...

When i first heard this was coming out i thought ' oh god not another trashy comic strip money making kid flick. However how wrong i was! The casting albiet a little inexperienced for my liking was well suited to the film, this film is after all about Optimus Prime and his buddys not Will Smith etc etc. The visual effects are cleverly done, no so much in that they are great, but hey happen so quickly and with camera angles changing so effectively you do not notice the 'shortcuts' they took over the effects, confused? OK so to get the truck/jet/whatever to turn into a often not so similarly sized robot requires magic... no... voodoo.... no, thats just silly... ahhh quick CGFX and clever camera work!! you see? no? i'll move on. Despite being hunks of metal from somewhere far far away you get taken on the sometimes emotional journey of the Autobots... which was always going to be the way... what hollywood movie would be complete without somehow getting all squishy at least once, this manages it a couple of times at least. How i dont know, a quick oil change and they are as good as new surely!?! The humour is simply refreshing, often coming out of the blue and its good to see that this movie despite its advertising campaign does not take itself too seriously. Action? Well you know it has it... i know it has it... Hollywood knew it before it even started the making of the film so yeah its full of it... and so it should be!!! Its Autobots vs. Decepticons for goodness sake. All in all a very cheesy but very enjoyable film that does justice to the cartoon series (for thouse who were lucky enough to of been kids back then) Dont expect anything from this film and you will be highly entertained, watch it with high expectations on the other hand and you may feel a little shortchanged... with a side order of 'seen that, got the lunchbox' (literally)

Perfect for first time PC build or seasoned PC builder

This item to start with is well packaged and inside the box everything is labeled clearly, you get the feeling of quality from the instructions and the layout of packing. The PSU itself is heavy (always a sure sign of quality, lighter = alot cheaper components used) and with a shiny highly reflective crome exterior is just the ticket inside a windowed PC case. The PSU is modular which means you only plug in the power cables you need, thus saving on clutter and mess inside you PC, personally i used all the power cables, but it was nice to have the option. The cables are plastic covered with metal braid underneath to protect the actual cable, the cables are also UV reactive so will look impressive under UV lighting! Installation is much the standard affair as with all PSU's and was a breeze, the provided felt ties to tie the cables neatly together was a welcome addition to the package too. In use this PSU is a high quality unit, it features a whole host of features that will give a constant supply of power to your PC and also protect it from the nasties that cheap PSU's will not. PFC is as standard here and a welcome addition, the output is steady and enough for most of todays power demands, however if you are planning on using SLi or crossfire graphics then a higher wattage will most likely be needed. Also something that should be noted is the PSU is fairly quiet, almost silent infact during all operation and the Neon Blue 12cm fan keeping things cool gives a nice glow to the inside of your PC. This PSU is well ventilated. All in all i am rather pleased with this unit and would not hesitate to advise anyone to buy it, it is a cheaper alternative to the top named brands but without having to give up on quality.
