MSI 890FXA-GD70 motherboard gets tested
The Guru of 3D posted a review on the MSI 890FXA-GD70 motherboard

Of course we were already fond of the 890GX chipset when it got released, but the FX chipset upped the ante a tiny bit more as next to the integration of SATA6G we see an increase in available PCIe lanes allowing 890FX motherboards to become very flexible in their bandwidth needs versus component usage. PCI-Express is key in the AMD 890FX release as we get PCIe 42 lanes at our disposal. Next to that, the chipset will be paired with the SB850 which we already covered in the 890GX review, it supports up-to 14 USB 2.0, up-to six SATA 6G ports and an integrated Gigabit Ethernet controller.

This is the basis and infrastructure of your PC, the 890 FX chipset. It's that kind of flexibility that allows ODMs like MSI to make little gems motherboards out of that chipset. MSI's 890FXA-GD70 is loaded with features like the aforementioned, but also USB 3.0, automated overclock options and even five (physical) PCIe x16 slots and even core unlock functionality from within the BIOS.

OCZ Enyo 128GB USB 3.0 Portable SSD Review
Techgage.com posted an in-depth look at OCZ's latest portable drive, the Enyo SSD.

"Fast". It's a word that can be explained in a billion different ways, but one of my favorites is to talk about the potential of OCZ's Enyo SSD. As a portable drive, it delivers mind-blowing performance, at up to 200MB/s for both the read and write, and as an added perk, it's small, stylish, and priced surprisingly well.

Logitech G9x Laser Gaming Mouse Review
Benchmark Reviews posted a review on the Logitech G9x Laser Gaming Mouse

One of the primary reasons that PC video games are so popular is because they offer precision control and accuracy beyond what the gaming console can deliver. Tools are an important part of the trade, and to be the best you've got to use the best equipment. Logitech is keenly aware of these fundamentals, which is why they've created an entire business around high-performance peripherals. In this article, Benchmark Reviews tests the Logitech G9x Laser Gaming Mouse (model 910-001152) in fast-paced FPS action games such as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Battlefield: Bad Company 2.

Nexus Edge Review
PureOverclock posted a review on the Nexus Edge

One of the companies a bit newer to the case market is Nexus. They are probably best known for their commitment to quiet computing, and probably best known for their silent fans. But Nexus has been branching into other areas to represent quiet computing, including power supplies and cases. And it is the latter that we're interested in today. One of Nexus' newest offerings is the Edge, designed as a quiet chassis. It looks pretty darn sleek, and given the Nexus pedigree, we're hopeful it will provide a good balance between cooling ability and low noise. So let's take a closer look at the Edge and see what it brings to a crowded case marketplace.

iGadget Life posted a review on the Speck Products AftPack Backpack Laptop Bag

Today for review I’ve got a big bag from Speck called the AftPack BackPack, plain and simple it’s a laptop bag for up to a 17” laptop.

Siig SuperSpeed USB 3.0 to SATA Hard Drive Dock with Fan
TestFreaks posted a review on the Siig SuperSpeed USB 3.0 to SATA Hard Drive Dock with Fan

External hard drives are nice for their portability but when you’re not going anywhere and you need to transfer files there’s nothing better than a dock to do that. Docks are easy to use, there’s no messing around with installing and uninstalling when you want to swap drives, just pop in and pop out. Today for review I’ve got a product from a new company called Siig, it’s a UBS 3.0 SATA docking station. The dock is like other out there, but this one actually features a fan in it to help make sure your drives stay cool, and it’s silent so you won’t even know it’s running. So read on to learn more and see how it performs with both an SSD and an HDD..

Corsair Force Series 100GB SSD Review
OCC has published a review on the Corsair Force Series 100GB SSD

The write speeds that the F100 was able to produce were amazingly fast, while the read speeds were about where the other drives were in about half of the testing. The Corsair drive's write speeds are what make it shine. The SandForce Controller was able to prove itself in that aspect.
