NZXT Cryo LX Notebook Cooler Review
Virtual-Hideout posted a review on the NZXT Cryo LX Notebook Cooler

We've seen many laptop/notebook coolers here at VH since we started getting into reviewing mobile items awhile back. Some decent, most not so decent. Well today I have for you a new entry into the notebook cooler segment from NZXT called the Cryo LX. The beauty is definitely unique. Not just because it'll support a 17" widescreen notebook with ease, or because it sports three 120mm fans, or even because it's made of aluminum. What makes this unit unique is the ability to fold it virtually in half! That's just a few of the nice features of this new Cryo LX. Let's check out some more...

ASUS P5Q Deluxe - P45 Motherboard Review
Mikhailtech posted a review on the Thermaltake BlacX Hard Drive Dock

ASUS has been around for several years now, making some of the most breathtaking gaming motherboard available on the market. ASUS is known for their excellent quality build and performance in their motherboards from the past years, but is this still the case? Intel released their X38 motherboard about a year ago, and it still seems to be one of the high leading motherboards on the market, along with the new P45 and the X48 motherboards. Having the latest, greatest and the most power efficient hardware is one of the main foci for computer enthusiasts at the moment. If it is Gaming, Video Editing, Photo Editing, Designing and Animating, Word Processing or even just surfing the web, the new P45 will change the way you look at the latest motherboards.

Gigabyte EP-45 Extreme Review
OCC has published a new review on the Gigabyte EP-45 Extreme

Overall, I would have to say that the limited edition Gigabyte EP-45 Extreme is the best motherboard that I've ever used for overclocking. The BIOS was simple to navigate, and Gigabyte's Dual BIOS technology really gives the user some peace of mind knowing that if they screw one BIOS up, another BIOS is right there for them to use. The LED readout is an overclocker's dream, because it allows us to see where the issues are if the system isn't booting. For me, the memory was what was holding my overclocking back. I was able to obtain an FSB speed of 500MHz, which is extremely good, considering four threads of data are being sent through the Northbridge at 500MHz x 7 (3.5GHz). I don't think I've ever hit 500 on a motherboard due to some sort of bottleneck of the CPU or memory.

Foxconn GeForce 9500 GT G96 Video Card Review
Benchmark Reviews posted a review on the Foxconn GeForce 9500 GT G96 Video Card

Not everyone can afford the bleeding edge of graphics hardware, and not everyone needs it. NVIDIA has already made headlines with their high-end GeForce GTX 280 video card, which offers high performance at a premium price. Most enthusiasts have seen so much coverage for the high-level graphic products that it might feel like nothing exists for the lower consumer segment. Benchmark Reviews hasn't forgotten about the entry-level enthusiast, which is why we test the Foxconn GeForce 9500 GT 256MB PCI Express video card 9500GT-256FR3 against the bigger names in this review.

ASUS P5Q Deluxe Intel P45 Motherboard Review
TweakTown posted a review on the ASUS P5Q Deluxe Intel P45 Motherboard

Intel has really pushed forward into the Express chipset lineup with the new 4 series being touted at what the 3 series should have been. It seems like the 3 series was just a stepping stone and the 5 series isn’t all that far away. But that’s for a totally different processor architecture.

So far, we have already had the early P45-DQ6 and MSI P45 Platinum cross our paths. Today we are looking at another big wig P45 offering, namely ASUS’ P5Q Deluxe Motherboard. Featuring its EPU6 energy saver, DDR2 and a wide array of features including Express gate, ASUS hopes to topple the likes of GIGABYTE and MSI. Let’s see just how well it manages to perform.

BFG GeForce 9600 GT OCX and 8800 GT OCX Review
The Guru of 3D posted a review on the BFG GeForce 9600 GT OCX and 8800 GT OCX

BFG is in the house with their latest weapons of mass gaming. They recently tweaked something in their product line-up and released the "OCX" series of products. Typically any manufacturer has it's normal baseline product, then an OC (overclock) products and in the case of BFG, they added an "X".

Well X marks the spot, and OCX obviously is short for Overclocking eXtreme. So we picked up two of their OCX models and see what the difference is all about and have a look at their BFG 9600 GT OCX and GeForce 8800 GT OCX.
