AMD Phenom 955 II x4 Review
XSReviews has reviewed the AMD Phenom 955 II x4 CPU

AMD first launched the 955 Black Edition and 945 CPUs back in April both based on the 45nm Phenom II technology. With Intel seemingly forging ahead in terms of performance with its i7 series, AMD's new products aim to compete more with Intel's quad-core range and should offer a cheaper upgrade for users with an AM2+ platform as the AM3 CPUs are backwards compatible with AM2+ sockets.

The 955 BE, of which we are taking a look at today, is a Black Edition product, which in effect means that the CPU features a unlocked multiplier; a huge plus for the overclockers. A dual DDR2 and DRR3 memory controller is also crammed into the chip.

The 900 series of AMD processors are all quad-core CPUs with a 6MB L3 cache, 2MB larger than the 800 series and the stock speed of the 955 BE was the fastest until it was superseded very recently by the 965 BE which clocks in at a whopping 3.4GHz. However, today we focus on the 955, let's check it out.

Neoseeker takes another look at some performance numbers from the new AMD 785G chipset

The 785G makes for a great mainstream chipset. Paired with a cheap Athlon II, computer manufacturers should be able to make very cheap yet powerful rigs. These are the computers we will hopefully soon see on the shelves at Best Buy, FutureShop, Staples and others.

Chieftec BL-01B Case Review
OCC has published a review on the Chieftec BL-01B Case

If you are looking for a new gaming case to throw all of your high performance hardware in, I would not suggest using this case unless you are wanting to go into water-cooling, which would make this case one of the best choices if you were going to be taking it to a lan party. Even if you were not going to be overclocking any of the components inside of your case, you should be able to have some safe temperatures with air cooling, especially if you upgraded the CPU cooler from the stock solution. If you are just going to be using it for the more simplistic computing tasks such as browsing the internet or using it for writing papers/spreadsheets and would like to do so in a compact place, I would say pick this case up!

Silverstone FT01 Chassis Review
Driverheaven posted a review on the Silverstone FT01 Chassis

SilverStone are without a doubt one of the most well known chassis manufacturers on the market and have made a name designing some of the highest quality enthusiast cases available today. We recently had a look at their SG04B chassis which was built to the usual high standards we would expect from them. Today we're going to be looking at the FT01 chassis which is a return to a more traditional design implementation simple yet elegant. This mid-tower chassis incorporates design cues from the immensely popular TJ07 chassis and is home to a number of quality features such as sound proofing, dust filters and tool-less mechanisms.
