Legit Reviews posted OCZ Vindicator CPU Cooler Review

The OCZ Vindicator CPU cooler is sold as an enthusiast grade thermal solution that provides superior cooling thanks to six copper heat pipes that rapidly transfer heat away from your CPU up to the dense high-stacked fin array where the heat is quickly and efficiently dissipated. Does the Vindicator live up to it's name or does it fall short? Read on to see how the OCZ Vindicator does on an Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 as we compare it to four other CPU coolers.

ASE Labs checked out the Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro

The fan itself is also a highlight. It is a 92mm fan that is caseless. The great part of the fan are the mounts. The mounts are rubber and are basically standoffs that control vibration going to the computer. Less vibration means less noise which is also a good thing.

Tech Hounds takes a look at 80 and 160 GB SATA hard drives

You don't have to be a gamer to understand the value of hard disk drives. They have been the main stay for storage in PCs for a long time. For the most part, desktop users are more concerned with performance in single drive configurations and RAID 0 (striping). RAID support do offer the capabilities to 'squeeze' more performance out of hard drives, but not without some compromise. Even if they don't use RAID capabiliites, users can still use two (or more) drives in their system - one for the systems and applications and the other for data.

Out of the many SATA II hard drives available on the market, the drives we'
re going to look at today are the 80 and 160 GB Hitachi's Deskstar (HDS721616PLA P220 and HDS728080PLA PF20), Seagate's Barracuda 7200.9 (ST3160211A and ST380211AS) and Western Digital's Caviar SE (WD800AAJS and WD1600AAJS).

TrustedReviews have looked at the Connect3D X1650XT

In terms of raw performance the X1650 XT is a very worthy competitor to the 7600 GT and given its better texture filtering, its ability to process both HDR and AA simultaneously, and it's better connectivity options, I'd say it's the better choice of the two.

TrustedReviews looked at the Samsung R20

You, see it’s all very well harping on about how fantastic the Mac is, and don't get me wrong I think they're great, but when it comes down to it, price counts for a lot. This Samsung R20 is a case in point – it does the classic PC job of offering a lot more for your money than an equivalent Mac. This is particularly relevant as in designing the R20, the first of its notebooks to appear under its new Aura branding, Samsung is clearly gunning for the black MacBook.

TrustedReviews have looked at the Shure SE310 Noise Isolating Earphones

The SE310s use a single driver solution, but they also incorporate Shure’s Tuned BassPort technology, to increases the bass response. This is something that proved to be an issue with the Shure E4c earphones that we reviewed about a year ago – although the clarity was superb, they lacked bass, which sometimes robbed music of some of its drama. Thankfully the SE310s are a definite improvement on the E4c set, and there’s a far more balanced sound on offer.

HardwareLogic posted SilverStone Olympia OP650 650w PSU Review

Fashion is all about timing, but all it takes to bring retro back into style is for one super model to don an outfit from yesteryear. In Silicon Valley, multiple +12V rails litter the power supply fashion runway, and we've seen as many as six of these accessories dangle from high end units. But lo and behold, case designer extraordinaire Silverstone has taken their PSU line and outfitted them with single +12V rails in what they're dubbing the Olympia. Today HardwareLogic looks at the Olympia OP650 and we'll tell you how she fares among her peers.
