Lenovo C315 All-In-One Desktop PC Review
Techspot posted a review on the Lenovo C315 All-In-One Desktop PC

Ever since entering the all-in-one market early last year with the IdeaCentre A600, Lenovo has been looking at expanding its offerings to reach different types of users. Today we'll be taking a look at the entry-level C Series C315 all-in-one desktop.

The Lenovo C315 AIO is powered by an AMD Athlon II X2 250U CPU operating at 1.6GHz and 4GB RAM running Windows 7 64-bit. Among its main features we have ATI HD 4530 M92-M+ graphics, integrated Wi-Fi, TV tuner and speakers, a webcam, optical drive and a 20-inch Lenovo NaturalTouch multi-touch panel. The C315 also gets Lenovo's suite of touch friendly multimedia apps like PowerCinema and AutoCollage, so you can start taking advantage of this feature out of the box.

Lenovo touts the $849 C315 as the perfect PC solution for tight spaces and budgets. Read on as we take a closer look at what this all-in-one desktop has to offer.

G.Skill Phoenix Pro 60GB Solid State Drive Review
ThinkComputers.org posted a review on the G.Skill Phoenix Pro 60GB Solid State Drive

We reviewed our first SandForce-based solid state drive about a month ago and since then the SandForce drives we have checked out have either been 120 or 128GB drives. While these are nice drives many people still cannot afford them. Today we will be looking at a 60GB drive that is based on the SandForce controller. The 60GB size is perfect for most systems as you can fit most of your programs and operating system on the drive then just use a regular SATA drive for all your media and other things. The 60GB size is also great for upgrading your laptop’s hard drive. Let’s check out the G.Skill Phoenix Pro 60GB Solid State Drive.

Thecus N4100PRO NAS Server Review
OCC has published a review on the Thecus N4100PRO NAS Server

The N4100PRO can be had at a street price of around $379, which is certainly more reasonable than the other units, but units such as the Synology DS408 come with a more powerful processor and double the memory for roughly $120 more. The N4100PRO is a solid unit with features to match or exceed others out there on the market at a good price, just don't expect it to set any land speed records with its data transfer rates, which I think is the real killer here.

Scythe Yasya Review
PureOverclock posted a review of the Scythe Yasya CPU Cooler

The Scythe Yasya is a heatsink with use for both sides of the coin. It can operate silently, or offer beefier cooling power with the built in fan speed controller that goes in through an expansion slot. It has a unique look, and Scythe is known for their fans, but how does this heatsink hold up against stiff competition? Let's find out!

Creative Labs Aurvana In-Ear 2 Earphones Review
Futurelooks posted Creative Labs Aurvana In-Ear 2 Earphones Review

Every time that you buy a new MP3 player or some other similar device, you usually get a "free" set of bundled headphones. The bad news is that these are usually anything but stellar, leaving you to invest in a set of premium earphones on your own. One of the newer offerings in this realm of premium headphones is the Creative Aurvana In-Ear2. This set follows up on the original Aurvana In-Ear headphones, which actually won a few awards in the past. Let's fast forward to the future and see if this new revision holds true to its heritage.

ASUS M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 Motherboard Review
Benchmark Reviews posted a review on the ASUS M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 Motherboard

The AMD 880G Northbridge and SB850 Southbridge are two of the latest bits of chipset silicon designed to bolster AMD's position in the mainstream PC market. They were released about a month apart this Spring, as part of a full line of 800-series chips, and ASUS wasted no time putting them into production. Key items that help make the M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 motherboard stand out are native support for SATA 6Gb/s, USB 3.0, and AMD's latest game changer, the Phenom II X6 CPU. With both Core Unlocker and Turbo Unlocker functionality built right into the board, this combination could be the magic ticket to dynamic-clocked, quad core processing on the cheap. Benchmark Reviews is pleased to review one of the latest ASUS motherboards, using the latest entries from AMD's new 800-series chipset.

Cooler Master V6 GT CPU Cooler Review
Hi Tech Legion posted a review on the Cooler Master V6 GT CPU Cooler

There is nothing timid about the Cooler Master V6 GT in design or cooling capabilities. The Cooler Master V6 GT may not have the quirks of Roth's work, but it certainly has the styling of dead on American Muscle, in this case Muscle Cooling. Two 120mm fans capable of 2200 rpm move air through a nickel plated fin array with six 6mm heatpipes in a V formation. A switch designed to resemble an oil cap from the era when chrome valve covers ruled sits on top, acting as a color changing LED switch. The top and side shrouds of the Cooler Master V6 GT are cut and molded with angular aerodynamics. One look tells you right away, the Cooler Master V6 GT was not meant to be only driven slowly to church on Sundays.

Thermaltake Frio CPU Cooler Review
Hardware Canucks posted a review of the new Thermaltake Frio CPU Cooler

Thermaltake was one of the first companies to release a high-end CPU cooler but in recent years they have struggled to find their stride. The Frio is their latest foray into the heatsink market which retails for under $60 but is supposed to bring Thermaltake's name into line with other industry luminaries like Thermalright and Prolimatech. Can this simple cooler live up to such lofty expectations?

TestFreaks posted a review on the Sony Ericsson MW600 Stereo Bluetooth Headset

When people think of a bluetooth headset most think of the kind that stick in your ear for making calls, but there are others out there like the one I have for review today. MobileFun has sent me one from Sony Ericsson that’s just called the MW600 but despite its unoriginal name it’s a headset that is packed with features. The MW600 is a heads that allows you to play music from you phone through a set of stereo headphones, make calls like you would with any other headset or you could use the built-in FM radio.

Bigbruin.com posted a review on the TomTom XL340-S 4.3 Inch Touchscreen Portable GPS

On top of taking care of the basic navigation functions rather nicely, the TomTom XL340-S 4.3 inch touchscreen portable GPS offers an intuitive menu that is 100% driven by the touchscreen for convenience. You can customize just about every feature to your liking, and you can access other services to complement what the XL340-S already offers.
