"For a graphics card that retails for a suggested $130, the Radeon HD 5750 sure packs in a lot of features. In addition to its solid performance and superb power consumption, the card supports multiple monitor outputs, DirectX 11, Eyefinity and more. To top it all off, Sapphire includes a voucher for a free copy of Dirt 2 right in the box."

"The Tuniq TX-3 thermal compound is an evolution of its popular predecessor, the TX-2, and promises peak cooling performance toward keeping your CPU cool under load. Let's take a look as we drop some onto a highly overclocked Core i7 monster and see if it can live up to those claims."

"The EVGA P55 FTW features a badass black color scheme that is only broken to highlight some of the primary features such as the primary memory bank and 8x PCIe video card slots. In times where more flash and bright colors have been added to motherboard designs it is nice to see that one company is embracing clean design idea."

"SilverStone has released a completely fanless 400 W power supply, thus producing absolutely no noise, with a high-end design. Can it survive our tests? Let’s see."

"Sennheiser is a well recognized name in the audio industry and has been making headphones, microphones, headsets and other consumer and professional audio equipment for more than 60 years.  The newly released Sennheiser HD-428 Headphones is their latest mid-level offering. It promises a comfortable fit, stylish looks and powerful bass-driven stereo sound --- all for $79.99. After dozens of hours of listening, we break down the performance and tell you how well it delivers."

"The Gigabyte P55M-UD4 motherboard brings LGA 1156 CPUs to the micro ATX motherboard market. Along with Core i5/i7 technology, the Gigabyte P55M-UD4 brings Cross Fire X and SLI technology with excellent overclocking capabilities. Along with the performance boosting power comes the excellent energy saving features that Gigabyte has pioneered, including Dynamic Energy Saver 2, Smart 6 and Auto Green technologies."

"Noctua have made a real name for themselves in recent years. Their ultra high performance CPU cooling and fan products have attained an almost legendary status on release. Since then they seem to have gone from strength to strength.

With that in mind i'm looking forward to testing one of their most recent creations the 140mm NF-P14 FLX alongside a couple of their best reviewed fans the NF-P12 and NF-S12B FLX. The P14 is a large medium RPM fan that installs into both standard 120mm and the new 140mm mount layouts."

"The Phenom II X2 550 Black Edition is AMD's first dual-core Phenom
processor, and thanks to an unlocked multiplier and 45nm manufacturing process, it has the potential to break some serious overclocking records... This 3.1GHz CPU slips easily into socket AM3 motherboards and Socket AM2+ platforms as well. This is largely due to its integrated DDR2/DDR3 memory controller, which functions in DDR3 mode for AM3 motherboards, and DDR2 mode on socket AM2/AM2+ motherboards."

"Today we are taking a look at Trendnet's latest Travel Router named 300Mbps Wireless N Travel Router, we earlier reviewed a USB WIFI adapter from Trendnet whic worked very good so it is going to be interesting to see what performanc we can get from this."

"We gathered all 22-inch (21.5’’) monitors that we could with one more condition: price tag should be below 160€. All monitors are black with differences in surface finish: matte or gloss (piano). This is nice change since earlier combinations of black and grey surfaces weren’t that much pleasing. All monitors have only one analog D-Sub, which is expected from low price models. All displays have 16:9 panel ratio, with 1920x1080 resolution. This will satisfy Full-HD standard and offer decent performances in new visually attractive operating systems. All tested models have decent picture control, which is important in case you have graphics card that cannot run new games in resolutions that are different from monitor’s native resolution. This means that if you lower game resolution, picture won’t get stretched but will maintain ratio even if it is not 16:9. Even specifications of all monitors are almost the same with only one difference: declared contrast values…"

"I've taken a look at the Seagate BlackArmor series of external drives and NAS boxes in the past, today for review I've got another of the BlackArmor series, the NAS110. This one is a single drive NAS box that's very easy to setup and offers all of the features of multiple drive NAS boxes. The NAS110 is aimed at those that want network storage but don't want to spend hundreds and hundreds of dollars, it's a a little over $200 in cost and well worth it I think. I've tested it out, and compared it up against a few other NAS boxes I've got on hand and found it to be the fastest of the bunch. So read on to learn more about a great little NAS box"

"TechwareLabs reviews the Crucial Ballistix Tracer RAM, which aims to provide more flash for less cash. We'll see if it has the performance to back up the presentation."

"Today we are going to have a look at one of the latest additions to the HX series, Corsairs high performance series of power supplies which are aimed towards demanding enthusiasts, the HX65 0W unit. The specifications of the HX650W are considerably superior to those of its 620W counterpart and it also comes with an 80Plus Bronze certification and a 7 year long warranty. Read on to find out how well the latest addition to the HX series can perform."

"Intel's Core i5 and i7 CPUs might be getting all of the column inches and user interest at present, but the CPU giant aren't quite done with their Nehalem architecture just yet - Early 2010 should see the launch of their first Core i3 CPUs, with leverage this architecture while also proving to be the first CPUs to feature an on-chip integrated graphics core. In anticipation of this, ASUS have given us an early pictorial look at their P7H57D-V EVO motherboard which should coincide with this release - A part based around Intel's new H57 motherboard chipset but looking set to be an interesting hybrid of support for value CPUs wrapped around a relatively high-end feature set."

"Today we are going to look at two of the latest offerings from Active Media Products, the WWF BLU Penguin and the Executive I-Pen USB drives. These both combine novelty with function, instantly noticeable by their innovative enclosures."

"Thursday's on campus announcement was the second major event Google held for its nascent Chrome OS, and while some have churlishly referred to the project as vaporware, let's not be silly: Chrome OS is real, and by just announcing that it's working on such a thing, Google has already changed the PC operating landscape and then some. The question, going forward, is how much more it will change things. I anticipate seeing Microsoft lower the pricing on its functionally-challenged Windows 7 Starter edition, for example. But if the software giant is serious about competing with Google, it will need to do the unthinkable and simply make Windows 7 Starter available to PC makers for free. It will go kicking and screaming into such a future. The only question is how long it takes."

"If we had an award for the "best bang for the buck", it would require little thinking to give it to ATI's Radeon HD 5850. For the price, it offers incredible power, superb power consumption, and of course, DirectX 11 support. We're taking a look at ASUS' version here, which along with Dirt 2, includes a surprisingly useful overclocking tool."

"Dual channel memory is back and honestly, it's back with a vengeance. The release of the P55 chipset from Intel has bought with it a huge amount of new memory modules due to its support for cheaper dual channel kits.

We'll see what's going on with the PC3-15000 kit we have here today from OCZ. We'll check out the package and modules before having a closer look at the specifications and then its overclocking ability."

"Whether you just need a computer for surfing the web or if you are on a quest to construct the ultimate gaming machine, it all begins with the case. NZXT has recently released a mid-tower case for all arenas: the Gamma. This extraordinarily light case is packed with features normally seen only in high-end (and high-priced) gaming cases, and it brings it all to the table for only $49.99. Benchmark Reviews will take you on a full-spectrum tour of the GAMA-001BK ATX case. NZXT has set a high standard for itself in the performance computing market. Will this case meet that standard with its beyond belief bargain price point? Follow me inside to find out."

"If the headphones provided decent sound isolation from the real world, and the high end response was a bit better, I would recommend the headset as the best you can get. As I've tried to stress in this conclusion, the shortcomings are actually minor, and I found the headset hard to fault. You can really tell a lot of thought, design and consideration went into developing the Zowie Gear Hammer headset, and it all paid off as Zowie Gear have produced a headset worthy of the professional gamer."

"Today we are looking closely at the Prolimatech Megahalems Rev.B on the LGA1156 socket to see if it can continue its successful ways. More specifically, we'll overclock the snot out of our Core i7 and find out just how far the Rev.B can let us overclock on air cooling. As you'll soon see, we were quite surprised by the results. Follow along and find out why."

"Is there something in the air? Maybe in the water? It seems that so many companies that once focused on other areas, like memory and motherboards, have suddenly acquired a taste for consumer electronics and they're all gravitating toward the appeal of HD media players."

"Traditionally the only way to get the Mackie name on your monitors was to buy from their lone HR series - which are out of the budget of most small-time recording hobbyists and are highly acclaimed professional level monitors. Mackie does have their Tapco brand, but it's very budget minded. When Mackie released their MR series of monitors, people jumped at the idea of getting the same high quality monitoring technology Mackie is known for, but at a fraction of the cost. Having reviewed several sets of monitors here in the past, and having personally used even more, I've been trying for a long time to get a set of these MR monitors myself to review here for you. Today, that day has arrived!"

"Though they have been around since 1985, I have never owned any Patriot Memory products before now. My memory purchases have been from the "household name" companies, as have most of yours. I always enjoy reviewing products from brands I have never owned before, and was delighted when I was asked to review a Patriot memory kit. Today I will be looking Patriot's Viper Series DDR3-1600 8-8-8-24 triple channel memory kit. It is designed for the i7, and supports Intel XMP. Of course it does all of this at the i7's required Vdimm of 1.65v. Will the Patriot memory kit do us proud? Read on to see!"

"The ability to stay connected to the net whilst on the move is becoming more and more popular with netbooks being the latest must-have gadget. With more power and quicker speeds combined with a decrease in product size, the need for efficient and effective cooling is an ever-greater necessity. One way to supply extra cooling potential is through a notebook cooler; the marketplace has been hit with a wave of these coolers released left, right and centre and all claiming to offer effective cooling. In reality though, many coolers just couldn't hack it in terms of raw
performance and just weren't worth it. That said, added features such as USB hubs and such like have made some coolers a more tempting purchase. One such product that includes a hub to bolster its marketability is the Choiix Mini Air-Through Notebook Cooling Pad. Let's take a look..."
