PowerColor HD 5770 PCS++ 1024M Review
techPowerUp posted a review on the PowerColor HD 5770 PCS++ 1024M

PowerColor's HD 5770 PCS++ could be described as an evolutionary step from the HD 5770 PCS+, targeted at overclockers. It is the first HD 5770 that comes with a Volterra voltage regulator which allows software voltage control. This enables tweakers to get higher overclocks out of their card without complicated modding.

OCZ Vertex 2 SSD review - The fastest of them all
The Guru of 3D posted a review on the OCZ Vertex 2 SSD

OCZ is back to attack with a new SSD in that slowly saturating SSD storage market. Yes, the Vertex 2 is finally here. OCZ has been on a winning streak with their SSD drives ever since that started selling Indilinx controller based products The SandForce controllers will bring extensive performance equal and even higher to the Indilinx products yet without the need for additional cache memory.

And that sounds weird really ... no additional cache memory is being used to solve the random IO perf of small files. The random IO on read/write rates spotted on this Vertex 2 takes productivity to the next level as we'll show you later on.

NZXT Gamma Review
XSReviews posted a review on the NZXT Gamma case

Placed in the Classic Series, the NZXT Gamma is akin to the Beta and Beta EVO chassis'. Characterised by a simple, yet effective, layout, all three of these cases are designed for the more mainstream market due to their affordability at around the £30 bracket.

This is not to say the Gamma is a standard black box and front panel though , as with the Beta, it offers visual character that sets this case apart from similarly priced enclosures.

However, the Antec Two Hundred is still very much king of the hill in terms of budget chassis; the NZXT Beta, although well-intentioned, couldn't quite deliver to the extent of the Antec enclosure and so it would appear the Gamma has been launched to put this right.

Hello Everyone, Toshiba is expanding the Satellite T135 lineup with new AMD

Corsair Obsidian 700D Full Tower Chassis Review
TweakTown posted a review on the Corsair Obsidian 700D Full Tower Chassis

Since the release of the Corsair Obsidian 800D there has been much talk around the internet. Everything from it being one of the easiest chassis’ to work with, to stylish looks and roominess; there wasn’t much bad to be said about the chassis. We got the opportunity back in August of last year to look at the 800D and to be completely honest, I was so won over that the chassis never left my house. It had been with me and my many configurations and as a matter of fact, the same day the images were taken I swapped the review hardware for my own and haven’t been happier with a chassis since.

This time from Corsair we get a simpler, refined, and re-thought sibling to the 800D. Corsair now offers the 700D in the Obsidian series, which by now most have already caught the buzz of what’s going on. Based completely off of the original, the 700D offers all the room of its older brother, but there are changes afoot. Some really obvious, some less conspicuous, but all designed to offer the same quality and pleasurable experience of ownership as was brought to you with the 800D, just this time a little different way of looking at things.

ASUS EAH5850 DirectCu Top Videocard Review
PC Stats posted ASUS EAH5850 DirectCu Top/2DIS/1GD5 Radeon HD 5850 Videocard Review

The Radeon HD 5850 is ATI's videocard of choice for the gamer on a
budget. It takes over where last generation's price/performance darling, the
Radeon HD 4850, left off. It's also happens to be in the highest echelon of
AMD's new Vision platform initiative, where it's paired with AMD 890FX-based motherboards and Phenom II X6 CPUs. While a standard Radeon HD 5850 videocard is exciting enough to get us perked up and paying attention, ASUS has brought its special sauce to the table with a special edition called the EAH5850 DirectCU TOP. Speeds aren't the only thing ASUS changed, however...

Intel Core i3-540 'Clarkdale' LGA1156 Processor Review
Hardware Canucks posted a review of the Intel Core i3-540 'Clarkdale' LGA1156 processor.

When Intel's Clarkdale processors were first released, they opened up the 1156 platform to a whole new market of budget conscious buyers. A low-cost, 32nm processor like the i3 540 may not be immediately interesting to the vast majority of enthusiasts but considering this efficient chip sports four threads and a core speed slightly above 3Ghz, it could be perfect for many consumers. In this review we take a closer look at the 540 to see how well it fits into Intel's current lineup.

Huntkey Jumper 550 Power Supply Review
Hardware Secrets posted a review on the Huntkey Jumper 550 Power Supply

So far we haven't had a good experience with most models from Huntkey. We've reviewed seven other models from this brand and only one, Titan 650 W – which was sold in the US as the first version of Rocketfish 700 W from Best Buy stores – survived our tests. Models from Huntkey Green Star, V-Power and Balance King series that we've reviewed to date all exploded during our tests. Let's see if this new 550 W model with a modular cabling system is a good product or if it is a piece of junk like the other models we've reviewed from this brand.

SandForce SF1200 RAID-0 SSD Performance Review
Benchmark Reviews takes a look at the performance of the SandForce SF1200 RAID-0 SSD

The SandForce SF-1222TA3-SBH processor is part of the SF-1200 SSD controller family, and through various new technology implementations SandForce has redefined performance expectations for the entire solid state storage landscape. Not only are bandwidth speeds extremely fast (nearly saturating the SATA-3GB/s interface), but operational IOPS performance reaches SLC-NAND levels. Additionally, SandForce RAISE technology provides redundant protection for single SSD computer systems, and data is automatically secured with AES-128 encryption. Benchmark Reviews has individually tested the ADATA S599, Corsair Force F100, and RunCore ProV SSDs, all which use the SandForce SF-1200 controller, but we've never experimented with these drives in a combined array. For this article, Benchmark Reviews tests two SandForce SF-1200 SSDs in a striped RAID-0 array to unleash absolute performance.

The In Win Ironclad is the next battleship of computer cases. The In Win Ironclad comes equipped with everything a high end computer builder would need.

The side panel case fan is 22cm in size and can be removed to accommodate up to 6 separate 12cm fans, if you so wish. This allows for 10 total case fans, which offers an insane thermal capability.
