Razer Sphex Review
Bjorn3D takes a look at the Razer Sphex.

With gaming mice constantly being the focus for aim and precision, mouse pads are easily overlooked. After spending $40 to $60 on a gaming mouse, spending an additional $10-$20 on a mouse pad may seem more like a chore than a necessity. Unfortunately, your brand new shiny mouse can only do so much. A high DPI mouse will perform best with a high DPI accepting mouse pad. A cheap cloth pad will work just fine, but the real potential of your mouse will forever be hidden. Gamers know what gamers want, and that is exactly why Razer has released so many good products. Along with their mice, they've also released many mouse pads including cloth pads, hard surface pads, dual sided pads, and now an incredibly thin $15 pad, the Sphex.

Intel Core i7-975 Extreme reviewed
ITreviewed posted a review on the Intel Core i7-975 Extreme

Intel's Core i7-975 Extreme Edition is an insane processor. Not only is it the most powerful desktop processor ever, its 3.33GHz quad-core performance can be increased to over 4GHz in a matter of minutes thanks to the unlocked multiplier. You're going to have to dig deep to justify the cost
compared to the fantastic 2.66GHz Core i7-920 D0 Stepping (from =A3215/$319), which can also be overclocked close to 4GHz, and you'll need applications that require four or more processing threads for it to really shine. But if you are after the ultimate in performance and price isn't an issue, the Core i7-975 Extreme is the processor for you. For the rest of us not planning to set a new world record, you don't need the Core i7-975 Extreme - the Core i7-920 remains the best balance between value and performance.

DDR3 Tri-Channel Roundup
DriverHeaven.net posted DDR3 Tri-Channel Roundup

In the past few months it has been clear that memory manufacturers have mastered high specification triple channel kits with those like Corsairs Dominator-GT really impressing us. So today we have two more kits on our test bench from OCZ and G.Skill, both of which are capable of running at 2000MHz. Added to this we have a set of memory from Kingston which is one of the few that favours volume over extreme speed, their product gives us three 4GB sticks in one kit for a total of 12GB.

Microsoft to RTM Windows 7 this week? Build 7260 leaks
Neowin posted a news story that an RTM escrow build of Windows 7 has been leaked on the Internet

Internal sources indicate that 7260 is still the latest build under the win7_rtm branch. Build 7260 carries the tag 7260.win7_rtm.090612-2110 and is an RTM escrow build meaning vigorous testing will commence to ensure this is the final code unless there are show stopper bugs. Folks inside Microsoft who wish to remain anonymous have also indicated that many people internally are growing tired and bored of the leaks and want development to conclude as soon as possible. I think everyone here at Neowin feels the same, lets see what the weekend brings.

Tuniq Ripper 1000W Power Supply Review
Overclockers Online has posted a new review on the Tuniq Ripper 1000W Power Supply

We'll start with what Tuniq has done right. The Ripper 1000W is a good looking unit; clean finish, sleeved cables with matching heatshrink, connectors and fan grill. The unit comes with plenty of molex connectors and the cables have quite a bit of length in them. In terms of performance, the Ripper finds itself placed comfortably in the middle of the pack- while there are better units available, it outperforms plenty others. Still, all around good performance.

The NZXT Beta is an extremely affordable enclosure with a sub 50 US Dollar price tag.
