ASUS P7P55D-E Pro LGA 1156 Intel P55 Review
techPowerUp posted a review on the ASUS P7P55D-E Pro LGA 1156 Intel P55

ASUS brings the P55 chipset an update in the form of the P7P55D-E PRO, with USB 3.0 and SATA 6 Gbps. The P7P55D-E looks to rival other boards on the market, and even potentially some of the up and coming P67-based products. In the face of Intel's latest release, is it still a viable option?

Acer Veriton Z290G-UD525W Review
TechReviewSource.com posted a review on the Acer Veriton Z290G-UD525W

The Acer Veriton Z290G-UD525W is a one-trick pony: It's one of the cheapest touchscreen-equipped all-in-one desktop PCs on the market, but is best suited for data-entry or management applications like cash register and concierge desk managers. It's too slow to keep mainline clerical workers productive if they multitask or run any sort of multimedia software.

Thermaltake Max 5G External USB 3.0 Enclosure Review
OCIA.net has posted their review of the Thermaltake Max 5G External USB 3.0 Enclosure

Today we are taking a look at the Max 5G from Thermaltake. The Max 5G is taking a different approach to the external drive enclosures. Where most others seem to aim at making the enclosure as compact as possible, the Max 5G is adding additional cooling in for good measure. This should have an impact on long-term drive health if warm hard drives concern you. The Max 5G comes with dual 80mm fans and blue LED highlights in addition to its USB 3.0 connectivity.

Intel SSD 510 Series SATA 6Gbps Solid State Drive Review
HotHardware.com posted a review on the Intel SSD 510 Series SATA 6Gbps Solid State Drive

The solid state storage market continues to bristle with activity. Over the last couple of weeks, we have shown you two hot new SSDs from OCZ-the Vertex 3 and the Vertex 3 Pro--that offer stellar performance, thanks in no small part to their next-gen SandForce SF-2000 series controllers with native SATA 6Gbs support. And now, it is Intel's turn to make a little noise in the space with new drives that boast similar SATA 6Gbps support.

To coincide with the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco and the Intel Solution Summit that took place in Las Vegas this past week, Intel announced its brand new Solid State Drive 510 Series products. The new 510 Series SSDs build upon Intel's successful X-25M series of solid state drives by offering native support for SATA 6Gbs interface speeds, with maximum reads in the 500MB/s range and write speeds of approximately 315MB/s-huge improvements over the previous generation...

Madshrimps posted a review on the Foxconn AHD1S "AMD APU Onboard" Motherboard

The Foxconn AHD1S motherboard comes equipped with one of the latest APUs from AMD, the E-350 with RADEON HD 6310 Integrated Graphics, much more powerful than the Intel Atom + Ion 2 offerings, in all productivity applications and games. The motherboard does also feature a completely passive cooling system, so it will not add any extra noise to our setup.

Toshiba NB550D AMD Fusion Netbook w/ Harman Kardon Speakers Review
TweakTown posted a review on the Toshiba NB550D AMD Fusion Netbook w/ Harman Kardon Speakers

The Toshiba NB550D comes with a 10.1-inch glossy display, but instead of running an Intel Atom CPU, like a typical netbook, the NB550D is based on the AMD C-50 CPU (1GHz) with ATI Radeon HD 6250 graphics. It also comes with a 250GB HDD & 1GB of RAM (it supports up to 4GB, but you'll have up upgrade to a 64-bit OS).

The Toshiba NB550D featuring Harman Kardon speakers makes a good first impression with its soft rubberized finish and sound quality unlike any other netbook. This 2.6-pound device sports an EasyGrip finish on the lid that's available in lime, metallic brown, turquoise and blue.

Patriot Xporter XT 32GB Review
XSReviews have written a review of the Patriot Xporter XT 32gb pen drive

Having just fired out a review of their SSD, today I'm picking up the mantle of another Patriot review. This one's the 32Gb variant of their Xporter line of pen drives. It's only USB 2.0 so I'm not expecting mind blowing performance, but Patriot have said that this one has "200x performance speed", so it's gotta be fast, right?

ASUS Radeon HD 6950 2GB DirectCU II Overclocked Video Card Review
TweakTown posted a review on the ASUS Radeon HD 6950 2GB DirectCU II Overclocked Video Card

It's been so long since I've looked at an ASUS video card, so long that I honestly couldn't remember the last time I saw one. I can tell you, though, it was in the day where the TOP series reigned supreme. So what's happening these days with ASUS in the video card market? Well, we haven't paid too much attention to be honest, but it's time to see what this DirectCU II series offers us.

What we'll do firstly is check out the package of the card to see what's going on. Once that's done we'll check out the card and the specifications. Carrying only a mild overclock, we decided to just crank up the speed through overdrive and we'll talk about that more in the specifications. Once all that's done, it's time to get into the fun stuff, the performance. First, though, let's check out the package.
