Gigabyte EX58-UD4P Review
Techgage.com posted a review of Gigabyte's latest mid-range X58 motherboard offering, the EX58-UD4P

At CES earlier this year, Gigabyte showed off two new motherboards that promised both a great value and of course, good overclocking abilities. The EX58-UD4P was one of those, and we've now been able to put it to the test. We're happy to report that as we had hoped, the board delivers on all fronts, and coupled with a reasonable price, it looks to be well-worth a look.

Asus GeForce ENGTX285 TOP Review
TechSpot posted a review on the Asus GeForce ENGTX285 TOP

Priced at around $350, the new GeForce GTX 285 is in a league of its own, meaning that ATI has no direct competitor for it. That doesn't guarantee a good value, so it will be interesting to see if the extra performance offered by the GTX 285 justifies the $150 premium you will have to pay over a GTX 260 or Radeon HD 4870, or perhaps if it's worth spending even more on a dual-GPU 4870 X2 or GTX 295 that sell for an additional $100 and $150, respectively.

The particular Asus card that we are reviewing (referred to as ENGTX285 TOP by the manufacturer) should deliver a little more performance than your typical GeForce GTX 285 considering it's a factory overclocked model. This may also translate in a higher retail price, likely in the $400 ballpark.

Our performance comparison will put this Asus GTX 285 graphics card against ATI's top offerings, the original GeForce GTX 280, the GTX 260 and the dual-GPU GTX 295.

The Ascent series from Mushkin represents their high-end line-up with thick eVCI heatspreaders, very tight timings and fast speeds. On top of that, the memory scales extremely well with voltage and has plenty of potential for overclockers

Intel Xeon Nehalem Review
iXBT Labs posted a review on the Intel Xeon Nehalem processor

So, Nehalem processors have entered the market of multiprocessor systems. That's good for those who use (or is going to use) such systems, but it doesn't affect the mass market. Everything will be as it has used to be. And it won't change until the long-awaited rollout of Core i5.

InWin X-Fighter Review
XSReviews has reviewed the InWin X-Fighter case

The futuristic sci-fi Star Wars films have influenced and inspired the design of In Win's X-Fighter case with its triangular feet, geometric lines and steel and aluminium chassis. All this makes the X-Fighter into the ultimate spaceship but how will it fare at doing its job as a PC enclosure? The aesthetics certainly look great, so let's see what the rest is like.

CM Storm Sniper Review
Maximum CPU posted a review on the CM Storm Sniper

Having a great system is vital to gaming. However, having a great case to house all those components can be just as important to the LAN party scene. The weight, size, and construction of the case and even more important, the look, are the integral parts of a system that will be hauled around to LAN parties. Cooler Master's recently launched Sniper computer chassis is part of the new CM Storm product line and was designed with these concerns in mind.

Cooler Master Sileo 500 Mid-Tower Case Review
TheTechLounge posted a review on the Cooler Master Sileo 500 Mid-Tower Case

One thought springs to mind. Is this case too budget? It's for sale we ll under a hundred bucks, which might mean that there are too many cut corn ers, or maybe that instead of some kind of NASA-developed space quiet foam, they're using leftover packing materials. Maybe the steel's only for show , and the case is made out of plastic with a metal veneer (Cooler Master, I know you did this that one time, you cheeky channel partner, case, and cooling company). Well, no matter what, it's moot if it's sturdy, pretty, and above all, quiet.

SmoothCreations Neptune Xtreme Machine Review
The Guru of 3D checked out the SmoothCreations Neptune Xtreme Machine

Listen up buttercup, King Neptune just mopped the floor. What I thought was going to be a custom case review turned out to a full-on bad-ass PC system to review.

The last machine we looked at from SmoothCreations was the munchies-inducing VW Bus case. That machine was impressive in its own right, if not for the sheer performance then for fact that it actually looked like a Volkswagen Bus. But, it also had a few shortcomings. So, they sent us another one, something quite a bit different.

OK, I'm game. While it might not be the ultimate to the hardcore, SmoothCreations built an awesome machine, worthy of praise and attention.
