Geeks.com Mini USB 2.0 LED Projector with Tripod Review
Bigbruin.com has published a review on the Geeks.com Mini USB 2.0 LED Projector with Tripod

The Geeks.com mini USB 2.0 LED projector was able to project an image of decent quality up to - and beyond - the specified 50 inches maximum, and all that had to be done was to connect it to a PC via USB. Still images looked very good, and I was pleasantly surprised to see it keep pace with video at 30 frames per second.

Western Digital RE4-GP 2 TB Hard Disk Drive Review
TechARP posted a review on the Western Digital RE4-GP 2 TB Hard Disk Drive

The biggest difference between the Western Digital RE4 hard disk drive and the Western Digital RE4-GP hard disk drive is the spindle speed. The "regular" RE4 drive spins at 7,200 RPM while the RE4-GP spins at a slower fixed speed between 5,400 RPM and 7,200 RPM. Everything else remains identical between the two drives.

Although the WD RE4-GP may appear to be a RAID-optimized version of the WD Caviar Green desktop hard disk drive, it is far more than just the Caviar Green with TLER support. Let's find out just how well it performs against the 10,000 RPM WD VelociRaptor and other leading desktop hard disk drives.

A Deep Dive Into Thecus NAS Software
TweakTown takes a look at the Thecus NAS Software

Testing NAS servers is a complicated and time consuming task. For the most part modern NAS products are computers in their own right with some using Intel Core2 Duo processors with 4GB of RAM. When writing a NAS review it is easy to focus on the hardware and capabilities, but often the software, applications and setup functionality take a back seat even though these functions are in many cases just as important as the hardware used.

To help ease the strain on both the reader and the writer, today we are going to cover the latest firmware / software release from Thecus. In a couple of days we will also publish a similar article covering the QNAP firmware / software since these are the two companies that send us a sample every other month and also have such extensive software. We plan to keep these available as living documents with updates published throughout the coming years.

Dell Inspiron Zino HD Desktop Review
HotHardware posted a review on the Dell Inspiron Zino HD Desktop

For the last couple of years, Dell's foray into the small-form-factor desktop market was its successful mini-tower (with the emphasis on "mini") Studio Hybrid. But with Dell's latest small-form-factor entry, the Inspiron Zino HD, out goes the vertical mini-tower and in comes the horizontal square--7.8-inches wide by 7.8-inches deep to be exact, and a mere 3.4-inches tall. Like the Studio Hybrid (which Dell still sells), the Inspiron Zino HD (a.k.a. the Inspiron 400) is a solid little machine, with decent mainstream performance, and geared towards budget-minded consumers. Similar to how you could change the Studio Hybrid's looks by swapping out different-colored sleeves, the Inspiron Zino HD can switch personality with the snap of new color or pattern lid. Of course, other than the default "Piano Black" lid, you'll have to pay extra for any of the Inspiron Zino HD's other color ($15 each) or pattern ($30) lids. And with a starting price of $249, the Inspiron Zino HD can give any number of nettop PCs a run for their money...

Thermaltake Silent 1156 CPU Heatsink Review
APH Networks has published a new review on the Thermaltake Silent 1156 CPU Heatsink

As computers get more and more powerful with each advance in computing technology, it is inevitable that the thermal envelope is continually being pushed to higher levels. For this reason, there will always be a large market for aftermarket CPU cooling. But just when you think only the biggest and loudest coolers can effectively cool the latest and greatest overclocked quad core processors, Thermaltake comes in with the Silent 1156 heatsink (Yes, that's literally the name). As its name suggests, this cooler is designed for Intel's relatively recent LGA1156 socket, and is a claimed to be silent alternative to the stock cooler provided by Intel in a retail packaged CPU. This tower style cooler features two 8mm heatpipes leading away from the base, as well as an included 92mm cooling fan over its array of heatsink fins. It is priced at a mere $29.99 at press time, and targeted at users who are into silent computing -- those who are dissatisfied with the noise generated from the little Intel heatsink -- but do not wish to spend a lot of money for an aftermarket unit. Generally speaking, Thermaltake aims to provide the user with the Silent 1156 as an alternative low noise CPU cooling solution without breaking the bank. We will be testing this product today to see if it is really a viable alternative and holds its own against the competition, and whether it can handle the our Intel Core i7-860 within a reasonable range of temperatures. Are you better off saving your money and sticking with the stock cooler, or should you grab this heatsink as soon as you finish this reading this review? Well... continue reading to find out!

Thermaltake V3 Black Edition Mid Tower Chassis Review
OCIA.net has posted their review of the Thermaltake V3 Black Edition Mid Tower Chassis

The budget mid tower computer case market is one of the most saturated when it comes to computer components. There are literally hundreds of different low cost mid tower cases to weed through when trying to find one that will meet your needs. I'll be the first to admit that many offerings are complete garbage. The key here is to find a chassis that combines the right mix of features and good looks while still being easy on the wallet and that is exactly what Thermaltake is aiming for with their recently released V3 Black Edition Mid Tower Case. With a retail price of only $39 USD, most would expect the bare minimum but read on because the V3 is dressed to impress.

Verizon Wireless Motorola Devour Review
Testfreaks takes a look at the Verizon Wireless Motorola Devour smartphone

Today for review I've got another phone from Verizon Wireless the Motorola Devour. It's an Android based phone that could be called the little brother to the Droid, it's similar to the Droid in many ways but it can stand on its own. The Devour is a phone that I like quite a bit, it's heavy and wellmade, but it's one for those that are really into the social networking scene. The Devour is a slider style phone with a full QWERTY keyboard with full numbers as well, so no hitting the function button to use them. In my time with the Devour I've found it to be a very good phone overall, it works well, it's finger friendly and it's nice and fast. I did run into a few small issues with it though, the camera is not that good, and I didn't get the rated battery life along with rather slow web access

I've taken a look at a couple USB 3.0 PCIE card here at TestFreaks. I've got another one today, but this one is quite a bit different. It's the ASUSU3S6 PCIE card that actually uses a standard PCIE slot as opposed to the small X1 style. This card is also a combo card that has both USB 3.0 ports on it and SATA3 or 6Gbps SATA connections on it. According to ASUS, utilizing the PCIE X4 slot will maximize your bandwidth or speeds you'll achieve with USB 3.0. let's find out if that's true or not

Sapphire Radeon HD 5830 Video Card in CrossFire Review
TweakTown posted a review on the Sapphire Radeon HD 5830 Video Card in CrossFire

Having already looked at the HD 5830 in reference form, it was time to see what our retail card could do when combined with the reference model we've already looked at. Over the past few months and clearly the past few releases, we've had a look at all the models in Crossfire and have been extremely happy with the performance boost that the setups gave us.

Out of the box the Sapphire doesn't look like our reference card. How it really changes, however, is something we'll get into more detail on later. For now let's check out the package and see if Sapphire can wow us with the latest model from ATI.

PowerColor Radeon HD 5870 PCS+ Review
OCC has published a review on the PowerColor Radeon HD 5870 PCS+

In all of the benchmark testing, the PowerColor HD 5870 PCS+ did great! Usually in the top two, it got first place many times as well thanks to the factory overclock. The massive quad heat-piped heat sink also kept the core and card running cool under load even when overclocked. The graphics card easily clocked to 950 MHz core and 1320 MHz memory. After that, 100% stability was not possible, although in some games I was able to play for hours up with the settings at 1000 MHz on the core and 1400 MHz memory - a small voltage bump and this card could reach high frequencies!
