BIOS Magazine posted a review on CMS Products' ABSplus

CMS Products' latest backup and restore product is an external ultra-portable (it'll just about slip into a shirt pocket) 2.5-inch hard disk drive (130x75x30mm, 198g). Available with a storage capacity from 40- to 160GB (95 to 175 ex. VAT), it also comes with good backup and restore software, and is backed by a 3-year warranty.

Free-Bees posted a review on openSUSE 10.2

At the moment, saying SUSE will probably bring up talk of Novell and Microsoft, and a certain deal that hasn't been looked upon favourably by many to say the least. However, I'm going to ignore all of that for this review for two reasons: firstly, openSUSE is not Novell. Secondly, that goes far beyond the scope of this article.

So, now we can start properly. openSUSE 10.2 is the latest release of the community project, after the somewhat disappointing 10.1 release, where you were liable to not have package management actually working. Hopefully, we'll discover no such flaw this time.

TrustedReviews have looked at the AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ EE (65nm)

In isolation, the Athlon 64 X2 5000+ EE is a decent processor. However, simply put, it's time for a much-needed update to AMD's K8 architecture. We know that it's coming later this year, but in our opinion, it can't happen soon enough. K8 has been great over the years, but AMD just can't get to high enough frequencies to compete with Intel at the moment. If you're looking to build a new system then the choice is quite a clear one; unless you already own a socket AM2 motherboard, Intel's Core 2 Duo processors are a much better choice.

TrustedReviews have looked at the Canon Selphy ES1 Photo Printer

Canon has had considerable success with its range of Selphy dedicated photo printers, which use dye sublimation, rather than the more usual inkjet. Its latest machine in the series, the ES1, refines the technique and provides extra features which should make it still more convenient to use.

techPowerUp posted a new review on the Ratpadz XT

Ratpadz was one the first companies to produce high quality plastic mats aimed at gamers who wanted absolute precision. The pad looks just like the original and is made from the same type of durable plastic. Can this old, relatively speaking, mat compete with the new sleek designs of the other big pad producers, read the review to find out.

Madshrimps has posted a review on the mCubed T-Balancer bigNG Advanced Fan Controller

mCubed introduced their first product back in 2004, named the T-Balancer XL we tested it and found it to be the most advanced and feature rich fan controller out there; rather than waiting for the competition to catch up, mCubed decided to up the stakes and they've released the T-Balancer bigNG, which aims to improve on the features and capabilities of the XL.

Bit-Tech takes a look at the DFI LANParty UT ICFX3200 T2R/G

DFI combines its enthusiast prowess with ATI's RD600 chipset, which finally gets to see the light of day. We have a look at DFI's LANParty UT ICFX3200 T2R/G to find out whether it is all hype or if DFI really has tamed a beast.

DFI LANParty UT ICFX3200 T2R/G review

Legit Reviews recently looked at the top AMD QuadFX platform running FX-74 processors and was left wondering what a pair of FX-70 processors could do for less money.

We got in the 'budget' QuadFX processors and did what any end user would do once they got them - overclock them to the max. We turned these 2.6GHz processors into 3.1GHz beasts, but was it enough for them to catch up to the Intel QX6700?

Modders-Inc has a new review online on the Thermaltake Swing Case

Today we are going to take a look at the Swing case from Thermaltake. This case resembles the look of the Tsunami and Soprano mid tower cases. The Swing has a stylish front panel design which leaves some room for the modders out there. In the time spent writing the review I have already had several ideas that a modder could do to the case to make it their own.
