Altec Lansing UHP336 In-Ear Earphones Review
Legit Reviews posted a review on the Altec Lansing UHP336 In-Ear Earphones

Altec Lansing’s SnugFit design does indeed provide great noise isolation to the user. As we used our various MP3 players from Apple and Cowon, we found the UHP336 to be one of the better headsets we have had in our ear. For me personally, I wanted better base response for the headphones and was annoyed by the amount of adjustment I had to keep making to hold the headphones in the “sweet spot” of my ear canal. This is most likely due to the weight of the headphone and cord...

Thermaltake SwordM VD5000 Chassis Review
Virtual-Hideout posted Thermaltake SwordM VD5000 Chassis Review

The case isn't just a gimmick, because it actually does have plenty of useable features. There is the potential for excellent cooling all around given the number of fans included and the fans that can be added. The open rear chassis almost appeared a bit odd since I'm so use to a closed chassis. However, this means there is more than enough room for warm air to escape and it's completely concealed by the really cool looking rear door.

Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 Review
I4U NEWS reviews the Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 6000.

Today we are looking at the Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 6000. This mouse wraps some features normally seen on portable notebook mice into a desktop mouse. The scroll wheel on the Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 is very good. In fact the scroll wheel is almost as nice as the Logitech Revolution line. The only downside to some may be that the scroll wheel on the Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 does't click. No clicking does make it easy to flick the wheel for faster scrolling on long pages.

Systemax Endeavor Workstation Review
HotHardware evaluate the features, performance, and overall value of Systemax's Xeon E5310-powered Endeavor Workstation.

Upon unwrapping Systemax's Endeavor box, it was clear we were working with a true workstation. The all-black chassis (black is the new beige) is pretty much par for the course. In fact, you might recognize the enclosure as Chenbro's SR10566 Black. Having had hands-on time with some of the company's rackmount server enclosures, Systemax's choice to go with Chenbro for its Endeavor makes good sense. The box is plenty sturdy. Crafted from .8mm steel, the chassis alone weighs more than 23 pounds (total shipping weight for the whole workstation is a staggering 64 pounds).

Uberclok Reactor Gaming PC
3D Game Man posted a review on the Uberclok Reactor Gaming PC

Uberclok is based in Chicago and a new player in the Gaming PC market. What sets them apart from the many other companies on the market is their pre-overclocked systems. They currently have two models, the Ion and Reactor. The Ion is targeted at the budget conscious gamer and the Reactor is targeted at the hardcore gamer. I'll be reviewing Reactor and the configuration they sent me includes; a EVGA 122-CK-NF68 motherboard, Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 3.2GHz, 4GBs of Corsair DDR2-800 XMS2 memory and much more. Watch the video to find out more and check out the bloopers at the end.

MSI Radeon HD 3870 512MB OC Review
TweakTown posted a review on the MSI Radeon HD 3870 512MB OC

After looking at the new 9600GT just the other day, it became clear to us that the HD 3870 really does still have some life in it. It’s not dying off anytime soon thanks to the aggressive pricing that has been implemented recently.

It did get us thinking though; with an MSI HD 3870 OC sitting around doing nothing, it was time to see what would happen when we put overclocked part up against overclocked part. It’s really going to come down to how well the HD 3870 is able to make use of the increased clock speeds that MSI have offered.

iSkin revo & revoClip Review
OCIA.net has posted their review of the iSkin revo & revoClip.

Today we will be looking at an iPhone case from iSkin, the revo and revoClip. The revo offers users a nice mix of standard features, such as all-around surface protection with a durable silicone exterior, but also brings to the table a few innovative features that we haven't seen on other cases, like the embedded anti-microbial protection and privacy film. With features like this, the iSkin revo is sure to attract some attention, but is it really worth your hard-earned money?

Palit GeForce 8600GT Super+1GB Review
Techgage published a review of Palit's 1GB 8600GT graphics card.

Palit is a relative newcomer to the GPU market in North America, but we are sure to see more of them as months pass. Our first look at a Palit card is courtesy of the 8600GT "Super+1GB". Though equipped with loads of memory, we found that it added little benefit over our 256MB competitor.

Gigabyte EX38-DS4 Review
OCC has published a new review of the Gigabyte EX38-DS4

The Gigabyte EX38-DS4 utilizes the X38 chipset from Intel. The motherboard features a silent cooling system with rather large heatsinks on both the PWM and the northbridge. Notice that the southbridge is not connected via a heat pipe to the northbridge but rather, it is cooled by its own heatsink. On the back of the motherboard, you'll see a copper backplate where the northbridge is. This setup allows the northbridge to dissipate heat in multiple directions.

ASUS Striker II Formula motherboard review
Elite Bastards published a review of ASUS' high-end, nForce 780i-sporting Striker II Formula motherboard

One of the main focuses of nForce 780i is the introduction of the nForce 200 chip, which brings PCI Express 2.0 support to this chipset alongside three full 16x PCI Express slots, allowing for the use of 3-way SLI with GeForce 8800 GTX and Ultra graphics boards. While it isn't really a big deal at this point in time, it's worth noting that only two of these three slots are PCI Express 2.0, with the third slot actually provided directly from the nForce 780i's MCP, and thus sporting PCI Express 1.1 only. To further confuse matters, the nForce 200 chip connects to the nForce 780i SLI MCP using a proprietary NVIDIA interface which gives it a bandwidth of 14.4 GB/sec - This is actually far less than the 32 GB/sec maximum bandwidth of which two 16x PCI Express 2.0 slots are capable. Thankfully, it's very unlikely that you'll ever actually run into bandwidth limitations along those lines in current applications.
