Overclocking the AMD 1055T - 3700mhz 'out of the box'
KitGuru.net overclocked the new AMD 1055T to 3700mhz

The latest AMD 1055T and 1090T six core processors are fantastic value for money and we particularly like the 1055T due to the very low asking price of around £160 inc vat. Many people opt for the 1090T Black Edition due to the unlocked Multipler and higher clock speed (3200mhz – 400mhz difference), but what if we were to tell you that almost all 1055T’s can hit 3700mhz with no extra voltage and just a little bios knowledge?

The Epson Stylus Photo R2880 is a new professional photo printer on the market from the printer giant, Epson.

AMD Phenom II X6 1055T 2.80 GHz Review
techPowerUp posted a review on the AMD Phenom II X6 1055T 2.80 GHz

After AMD'S Phenom II X6 1090T flagship processor, we take a look at the first mainstream six core processor Phenom II X6 1055T. Clocked at 2.80 GHz and with Turbo Core technology it can reach up to 3.30 GHz, and at prices of just under $200 AMD aims to create some serious alternative to Intel's Core i5 750.

AC Ryan PlayOn!HD 1TB Review
XSReviews has written a review of the AC Ryan PlayOn!HD 1TB Media Hub

We previously reviewed the media hub AC Ryan PlayOn!HD Mini and were rather impressed with it. However, that was only a baby compared to what we're looking at today. It's price may not be much higher, but on paper the 1TB non-mini version seems to come packing a nice few extras. Lets see how it compares to its smaller brother and whether it's worth the extra investment cost.

Gigabyte X58A-UD3R: USB 3.0, SATA 6G Review
HotHardware.com posted a review on the Gigabyte X58A-UD3

The past few years have been very kind to Gigabyte; the company's shipments have increased to the point that it's now approximately tied with Asus in terms of volume shipments. Part of the reason for the company's good fortune is its decision to aggressively align its higher-end motherboards, both in terms of price and available features. Gigabyte has put a major push behind USB 3.0, and claims to have purchased one million of the three million USB 3.0 controllers NEC has shipped thus far.

The X58A-UD3R we're reviewing today is a good example of Gigabyte's competitive product positioning. The board's feature loadout is excellent given its ~$200 price point-the question we'll be looking to answer is whether or not the company cut any corners to hit its target...

EVGA GTX 400 Series High-Flow Exhaust Bracket Review
Legit Reviews posted a review on the EVGA GTX 400 Series High-Flow Exhaust Bracket

EVGA recently announced that they have begun to sell their NVIDIA GeForce GTX 400 Series High-Flow Video Card Exhaust Bracket that is said to lower GPU temperatures by up to 5C. Lowering your video card temperatures by up to 5C for under $10 doesn't sound like a bad idea. All you need to do is remove a few screws and the bracket can be switched out quickly without having to worry about voiding the cards warranty. The question that we have to figure out is if the NVIDIA reference design exhaust bracket really that restrictive?
