One area of the computer that rarely gets the attention that it deserves is the hard drives.

Gigabyte GA-945GM-S2 945G Express Core 2 Duo Motherboard Review
PC Stats posted a Gigabyte GA-945GM-S2 945G Express Core 2 Duo Motherboard Review

The Gigabyte GA-945GM-S2 motherboard is built around the newly Core 2 Duo compatible Intel 945G Express northbridge and ICH7 southbridge chipsets. The solution is ideal for cash-strapped consumers and not so great for AMD... The microATX board accommodates a maximum of 4GB of DDR2 400/533/667 memory in a dual channel configuration. The GA-945GM-S2 supports all existing Socket 775 processors on a 1066MHz FSB. On the short list of the GA-945GM-S2's hardware goodies we find an integrated Gigabit network card, Intel Azalia High Definition 7.1-channel audio codec, four USB2.0 jacks, four 3GB/s SATA connections and of course the onboard Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 videocard at the rear I/O.

SiS 771 Reference Board Review
Hardware Secrets posted a SiS 771 Reference Board Review

SiS 771 is a chipset with integrated graphics targeted to the AMD platform to be released by the end of this year. We’ve got from SiS a reference board for this chipset and since motherboards based on the same chipset usually achieve similar performance, you can have a clue on what performance to expect from motherboards based on the forthcoming SiS 771.

Thermaltake Ruby Orb CPU Cooler Review
PC Modding Malaysia put up a Thermaltake Ruby Orb CPU Cooler review

Well well, the Ruby Orb is certainly not too heavy, not too light, looks great, and performs decently. Although having a aluminum core, the performance is still good enough to decently tame down a super hot Prescott, bringing it down lesser than 60 Celsius. I have yet to receive a pricing detail about this cooler, but I am very sure Thermaltake will make it priced decently for the market.

Cooler Master ITower 930 ATX Case Review
PC Apex have a new review up on a brand-spanking new case from Cooler Master named the ITower 930

I have seen so many ways to have a tool-less design for the PCI slots. This design is new to me, and pretty damn simple. A simple push to the back on the tab and it clicks and pivots out of the case. Pull the tab back and push towards the motherboard till it locks in place. If the PCI device is not set properly the tab won't lock. I have to give Cooler Master credit, this is the easiest design I have used to date.

Func sUrface 1030 Archetype MBA Custom Mousing Surface Review
APH Networks takes a look at the Func sUrface 1030 Archetype MBA Custom Mousing Surface

Although the Func sUrface 1030 Archetype has already been one of our favorite mousing surfaces for quite a while. To be honest, there's only two out of all the ones we've reviewed so far that we really like -- and we've tested over a dozen mousepads in all. This is one of our favorites, while our other equally liked pad is the Hybrid from XTracPads. There's one thing that's always good but doesn't occur too often: when the best gets better. Although our "new" Func sUrface 1030 Archetype is not a complete structural overhaul, the whole custom surface idea is definitely a cool enough concept to make you just want to buy (Or rebuy) one. A Func sUrface 1030 Archetype with a custom surface design! A very logical question then arises: Are we re-reviewing the Func sUrface 1030 Archetype today? The answer is a simple "Yes". I've received a lot of feedback and it seems many of our APH readers want to know how our longtime favorite Archetype steps up against other mousepads under our new proprietary mousepad rating format. And our Func sUrface 1030 Archetype MBA custom gives us a very good incentive to do so. Let's see what we can come up with an entire new look at the Func sUrface 1030 Archetype over at APH Networks Reviews.

Virtual-Hideout posted a review on the FOXCONN 975X7AB-8EKRS2H (LGA775) Motherboard

The board's design and layout are well thought out making it very nice to work with. Configuring the motherboard and its BIOS are simple and easy to understand. The more avid over clocker who wants access to every option will find the current BIOS some what limiting which can easily change with future updates.

Enermax Phoenix Case Review
3D Game Man posted a review on the Enermax Phoenix Case

This Mid-Tower ATX case has lots of features at an affordable price. There are plenty of drive bays, an attractive aluminum front, tooless design, and great build quality. It also has fantastic air circulation with the included 250 mm fan. If that's not enough cooling power, two optional fans can be added. This case may be targeted at the budget market, but it's big on functionality. Watch the Video to find out more...

XSPC Water Cooling Gear Review
Madshrimps posted XSPC Water Cooling Gear Review

XSPC is a suprising water cooling company with some innovative products. After reviewing their X20 watercooling kit I was impressed by its performance although the kit was rather compact. The heart of that kit was the X20 CPU water block which has been re-designed. Today we test their new X20 and a few other products from the XSPC inventory and compare them to other high end water cooling components.

Logitech Quickcam Fusion Webcam Review
Tweaknews.net posted a review on the Logitech Quickcam Fusion Webcam

Well, I can't say Logitech has convinced me to become a webcam junkie, but I am very impressed with how far the webcam has come. For those who teleconference from home or on the road, the image quality is top-notch, the built-in mic works very well, and the addition of a basic, yet functional headset makes for a compelling product.

OCTools has just posted a review of one of Corsair's DDR2-1066 2GB kit, the TWIN2X2048-8500C5

Overclocked, these modules can run up to 1162MHz (DDR2-1162) or better even at default voltages. If synchronicity is what you're aiming for to experience the full potential of your system, then look no further. At these speeds, you have just turned your PC2-8500 investment into PC2-9300 modules.

ZyXEL P-336M and M-102 Review
TrustedReviews looked at the ZyXEL P-336M and M-102

ZyXEL has traditionally offered one of the largest ranges of wireless broadband routers but its latest P-336M signals a sea change in its product line as out go the dull blue boxes of the Prestige range and in come a raft of sleek silver slabs. Not only that but it also represents ZyXEL’s first MIMO wireless product. So far, ZyXEL has resisted the temptation to join in the draft 802.11n bun fight but we were advised that it expects to deliver compliant product at the end of this year. To that end this currently makes the P-336M the fastest wireless product in ZyXEL’s stable.

HotHardware.com posted a review on the ATI Radeon X1950 Pro

It's been only seven short weeks since ATI officially unveiled the last four additions to the X1K family of products, and here we are again with yet another new Radeon poised to shake-up the mid-range segment of the market. We recently got our hands on a pair of ATI's brand-new Radeon X1950 Pro cards and put them through the wringer in both a single-card setup and a dual-card CrossFire configuration. Head on over to the site and take a look.

ATi X1950 Pro information and introduction
Another ATi X1950 Pro article, this time from OCW

We have prepared an article on the X1650 Pro. In this article, we take a look at the various difference between it and previous generations of Radeon X1K cards. One of the major changes is the CrossFire Interconnect. Now you no longer require cables and there is no more CrossFire edition. Two normal cards can be linked using a "SLI" like flexible connector and CrossFire is enabled.
