ASUS U30Jc Intel Core i3 350M Laptop Review
Legit Reviews posted a review on the ASUS U30Jc Intel Core i3 350M Laptop

The ASUS U30Jc is the latest entry for ASUS in the Ultra-Portable Market. With the promise of 8 hours of usable battery life, Intel Core i3-350M 2.26GHz Nehalem derived performance, 4GB of DDR3 memory, all in a 4lb aluminum enclosure, this notebook might just be what you've been looking for. It also sports dedicated NVIDIA GeForce 310M graphics and all for under $1000!

What we have here is a notebook that comes in at $961 (we've seen it in the low $800s), 8 hour battery life while web surfing and working in documents, the power to easily to edit videos and photos, the flexibility to game in a pinch, 4+ hours of DVD playback with the capability of hardware assisted Blu-ray playback, all in a thin and light package. With all of that in mind, I would have no problem recommending the ASUS U30Jc to anyone in the market for a new laptop under $1000...

Cooler Master Excalibur Case Fan Review
Ninjalane posted a review on the Cooler Master Excalibur Case Fan

Fans come in all different shapes and sizes, and what started as a pretty common design quickly transformed into a technical art used to create specialized fans for special purposes. Some fans are designed to cool heatsinks and direct airflow over a certain area, while others might be simple case fans designed to move massive amounts of air.

Inno3D GTX 460 1GB OC Review
OCC has published a review on the Inno3D GTX 460 1GB OC

When giving praise, it is usually a good practice to provide some criticism to give boths sides of the fence. The GTX 460 performed amazingly and the only real con that comes to mind is the fact that the error correction feature makes it harder, but not impossible, to overclock the memory. To do so properly, memory intensive benchmarks must be run until the drop-off point is found performance-wise.

Samsung Gravity T SGH-t669 Review
TestFreaks posted a review on the Samsung Gravity T SGH-t669

Today for review I’ve got my first phone for the T-Mobile network from Samsung called the Gravity T. The ‘T’ in the name stands for Touch, as in touch screen. This new phone from Samsung is sort of small but it’s slider that opens to reveal a full qwerty keyboard to make messaging and any other text entry that much easier. I’m very fond of phones with hardware keyboards, I just like them and the one on the Gravity T is excellent and easy to use. This is my first phone on the T-Mobile network and I’m impressed overall, I hate no problems with it, everywhere I went I had a signal. The screen on this phone is fairly big, and rotating it to landscape mode allows for nice a nice web browsing experience. The Gravity T features panels like you might find on an Android phone, and it also uses widgets which you can add or remove to the screens so you can customize it the way you want. The Gravity Touch is a decent phone, so read on to learn more about it..

HIS HD 5870 iCooler V Turbo X 1GB Review
Viperlair posted a review on the HIS HD 5870 iCooler V Turbo X 1GB

The HIS HD 5870 iCooler V Turbo X 1GB is a great card with a good package. It does very well in games, especially DirectX 11 games. I must admit that older games, or games based on the older DirectX 9, don't benefit as much from the higher clocks as you might expect, but with DirectX 10 and especially DirectX 11, the HIS HD 5870 iCooler V Turbo X 1GB does tend to stretch it's legs more.

ASUS P6X58D-E Intel X58 Express Motherboard Review
ThinkComputers.org posted a review on the ASUS P6X58D-E Intel X58 Express Motherboard

Though well equipped, including Asus’ TurboV, Asus Express gate, and Asus EPU6, among many other features, that first Asus X58 motherboard I had, the P6T, has become a little dated, especially compared to Asus’ newer motherboards. The P6T had 8+2 phase voltage regulating, Asus has since improved on that with other boards. And both USB3 and SATA 6Gb/s has been released since the P6T was released. So to bring the venerable X58 up to date, Asus has released a couple of new X58 boards. Today I will be looking at the Asus P6X58D-E motherboard, a new Asus board sporting 16+2 phase power, true USB3 and SATA 6Gb/s, and support for the Intel Bloomfield processor and Microsoft Windows 7. Read on to check out the Asus P6X58D-E motherboard!
