NZXT Guardian 921 Crafted Series Mid-Tower ATX Computer Case Review
Tweaknews posted NZXT Guardian 921 Crafted Series Mid-Tower ATX Computer Case Review

With their redesigned Guardian 921 gaming case, NZXT has updated the look and features of the original Guardian while managing to keep its feel and tone. The “armored” look is still there and the updated visual elements are tastefully done, giving the case a fresh, new look while paying homage to the original. I found the illuminated temperature display and eSATA port refreshing and, while not strictly necessary in a gaming case, both features should prove useful.

Driverheaven posted a review on the AMD Athlon X2 7850 B.E. CPU/Radeon 4770 GFX

There has been a steady stream of processor releases from AMD in recent times. Whether it is revisions of triple and quad core models or the addition of DDR3 parts to the product line there has always been something new to look at regularly. Two weeks ago we took a look at the latest high end Phenom 2, the 955 (Read The Review) and now AMD have another release for us to cover. The Athlon X2 7850 Black Edition. In addition to this the past week has also seen the release of the Radeon 4770, AMD's first card to use a 40nm GPU and we have two of these models on our test bench.

MSI Wind U100 10-inch Netbook Review
TweakTown posted a review on the MSI Wind U100 10-inch Netbook

Netbooks are the biggest selling category in the computer industry right now for several reasons. The poor global economy is the big reason consumers are flocking to netbooks. I don’t think that is the only reason that netbooks continue to post such massive growth, I think that consumers are finally realizing that they don’t have to use the most powerful notebook available to do the majority of what they need.

With that realization many people shopping for computers are opting to go with the much smaller and more portable netbook machines rather than larger full notebook systems. Another big benefit of the netbook is that the little machines tend to sip power making them last longer away from an outlet.

Sapphire Vapor X Review
XSReviews has reviewed the Sapphire Vapor X graphics card

Sapphire first introduced its graphics cards which implemented the Vapor-X coolers back in 2007 with its 3870 Atomic cards. The Vapor-X technology meant that graphics cards could be efficiently cooled and still remain silent using a liquid coolant which vaporised at the hot GPU's IHS. Recently Sapphire has revitalised their Vapor-X video cards with the birth of the HD 4850 and 4870. Today we've kindly been given the 4850 to review, let's see how it performs.

Imagine a colour laser printer that delivers above-par output, colour copies as well as scans and faxes via USB, 10/100 Base-TX Ethernet or 802.11b/g Wi-Fi.

Classic analog antenna broadcastings are soon to disappear all around the world and in most cases being replaced by a digital version, in some occasions you might even run into full high definition video broadcastings. Great news for wireless receivers out there, DVB-T is an excellent way to watch quality video wherever you want, but is it really? We tested a Compro VideoMate Vista U2800F USB DVB-T receiver on Belgian grounds and the outcome is not always what you would have wished for... read on!

MSI Radeon HD 4890 1GB OC Graphic Card Review
Ninjalane has posted their review of the MSI Radeon HD4890 OC video card.

In this review we will be looking at MSI version of this new card called the Radeon HD 4890 OC. OC stands for overclocked meaning it comes from the factory with a slightly better clock speed from what ATI had intended. Typically OC cards don't overclock well but with a little tweaking you can usually squeeze out a few more frames or, simply leave the card alone and enjoy the nice performance boost.

Over the years the Sony Cyber-shot digital camera has been a popular point-and-shoot camera, so when they announced a new Cyber-shot with a Carl Zeiss 5x optical zoom wide (28mm) lens that takes photos at 12.1 megapixels and shoots 720p HD video, we just had to take a look.

HP Mini 2140 Review
InsideHW.com has reviewed HP Mini 2140

One of the best netbooks that we tested so far, HP 2133 Mini-Note , has got its successor in form of, eagerly awaited, HP Mini 2140. Beside display size (8.9 inch at older and 10.1inch on the new model) differences between HP 2133 and HP 2140 are minimal when it comes to external aesthetics. Chassis is 6mm longer and 1mm wider and ventilation grills are redesigned. For all those that are not familiar with our review of HP 2133 we will just say that HP 2133 has very good quality build and nice business look.

OCZ Behemoth Gaming Mouse Review
OCIA.net has posted their review of the OCZ Behemoth Gaming Mouse

The Behemoth takes a similar shape to the Logitech MX Revolution, with extra grooves that are home to the ring and pinky fingers. The scroll-wheel, in an old-fashioned choice, does not light up and does not provide any sort of tilt-scrolling features. Also on top, we see the on-the-fly DPI switching button. As the sensitivity is higher on the mouse, more of the blue LEDs turn on. The left side of the mouse is home to two buttons, typically used as forward and backward for browsing. The Behemoth is generally single-textured, with a soft rubbery-plastic feel to it, which isn't too grippy that it is uncomfortable, but won't get slippery when sweaty.

R&B Mods posted a review on the Verbatim SecureDigital Class 6 32GB

Today we are going to take a look at a Verbatim SD memory card from Verbatim. This is a 32Gb SD card which is supposed to be a bit faster than stock cards. Verbatim is well known for their high class storage media like dvd's and cd's so it's going to be interesting to see if this device can keep up with the high quality Verbatim has delivered before.

GeForce GTS 250 Roundup (ASUS, Gigabyte, Sparkle, EVGA)
Hardware Canucks posted a GeForce GTS 250 Roundup featuring cards from ASUS, Gigabyte, Sparkle and EVGA

Believe it or not, this is our first review of the GTS 250 since we decided to sit back and wait for the initial fury of yet another rebadged card release to die down. Now that the GTS 250 has settled into the market (and quite well at that), we felt it was time to take a look at what a few different manufacturers had to offer. We have also recently seen a number of sales which have really piqued people's interest in this card. Just remember, the GTS 250 seems like nothing more than a gussied up 9800 GTX+ on paper but as we will see, Nvidia's board partners have added their own unique spin to things.

In Win X-Fighter Review
OCC has published a new review on the In Win X-Fighter

When I first got this case I was a little skeptical of its design. The case looks visually appealing and does not disappoint in performance either. Overall installation was fairly easy, however I was not able to use the tool free solution for expansion devices with my video card. Apart from that, everything went together smoothly. It does however sometimes require a bit more force to get the panels on. Another major thing (or at least what I thought of as major) was the fact that hard drives are installed with the cables facing outward. However, in the end this does not really matter since the VGA Turbo Cooler covers over this, preventing you from seeing them anyway. I thought it was great that the front panel LED connector wires came bundled together, making them easier to manage. As with a lot of mid tower cases, it was hard to fit the video card and power connectors in, but they do fit. Overall this case performed well, but while it has some pretty good things going for it, some of the bad outweigh the good.

Sapphire Radeon HD 4770 CrossFireX Performance
BmR takes a look at the performance of the Sapphire Radeon HD 4770 CrossFireX video card

The Sapphire Radeon HD 4770 introduces the 40nm RV740 GPU paired to 512MB of DDR5 video frame buffer memory, and a double-height cooler allows the 100277L model video card to operate at 750MHz.

Benchmark Reviews compares two Sapphire Radeon HD4770's assembled into a CrossFireX set against a large collection of high-performance GPU's for the tests in this article.

Radius Atomic Bass earphones Review
APH Networks posted a review on the Radius Atomic Bass earphones

Jonathan Kwan, where are the reviews!?" - "Dear the chc, where have you been lately? I really miss your reviews " - "WHY ARE YOU SO LAZY JON!" -- there have been more than a handful of similar feedback I've received lately. Before we get started on this review today, I would really like to thank our readers for taking the time just to send me a few messages, as well as just giving me a 'push' to continue my job. Well, here we are today, and I'm back to it, renewed and refreshed. After a month of breaking in and intensively testing the Radius Atomic Bass earphones (See, I wasn't THAT slack), I'd like to put forth a spoiler for you right now. These earphones are actually pretty darn good! When I first heard of the Radius Atomic Bass, the name seemed to have developed a sense of negative connotation for me. This mainly resides in the aspect of calling them 'Bass' by Radius, because the first thing that comes to my mind are those so-called 'audiophiles' that believes a piece of equipment is 'the shizz' when all they have is a 20-inch triple sub configuration and a pair of $10 generic computer speakers for everything else. To be honest, I was afraid that one of the major characteristics of Radius' Atomic Bass earphones would have a similar effect as aforementioned with your favorite digital audio player plugged in and the IEMs in question residing in my ears. Fortunately, that's not the case -- a pleasant surprise. If you're wondering what is it really like, then it's is a very good reason for you to continue reading.

NZXT Panzerbox All Aluminum Mid Tower Case Review
TweakTown posted a review on the NZXT Panzerbox All Aluminum Mid Tower Case

Today we take a look at the Panzerbox from NZXT. Unlike my last case from NZXT, the Zero 2 steel and plastic full tower, this time I am greeted with reviewing this all aluminum mid tower that is sleek and compact in appearance and boasts quite a good amount of airflow.

The Panzerbox even addresses the issue of an internal loop for water cooling as an optional way to assemble this chassis. Now that I went and got my hopes up in the clouds, I think it is due time to get some images and see what NZXT has to offer with the Panzerbox.
