Acer Aspire 5530G Review
InsideHW.com has posted an article about Acer Aspire 5530G notebook

Despite fact that design of Acer Gemstone notebook series proved to be successful, some users didn't like light colored areas around keyboard and screen. Acer listened to users feedback so new series of Acer notebooks can be found with black and dark-gray color combinations. First of those that came in our test lab is Acer Aspire 5530G-702G32Mi model. Although at first glance is seems that only difference is in color but it will be proven that it is not that simple

EVGA 790i Ultra Review
Bjorn3D takes a look at the EVGA 790i Ultra

The introduction of the Nvidia 790i chip set gives new meaning to SLI. With scaling running as high as 60-70%, SLI is becoming a more attractive option. With a feature rich board, easy to set up SLI, a really sweet bundle, and easy overclocking, it's hard to overlook the 790i for true enthusiasts.

The EVGA 790i Ultra comes on a sexy Black PCB. With it's 3 PCI-E 16x slots that all run at 16x standing out from the board, it lets you know right out of the box that this is a serious graphics monster. The layout on the board is well thought out and from the moment you open the box it just screams at you, 'Feed me GPU's NOW!'

We are glad to feed it a couple of GTX-260's running in SLI right out of the box. Slap in some OCZ DDR3 2000 SLI ready RAM and fire it up. We did stay a little back from the case for fear of singed eyebrows but we managed to come through unscathed.

TestFreaks.com posted a review on Kingston 2GB HyperX DDR3 1600MHz KHX12800D3K2/2G

Today I've got two gigs of DDR3 for review, it's a pair of Kingston HyperX, and it runs at 1600MHZ, so it's pretty fast stuff! I've decided to put it up against a kit of fast DDR2 and see how it fairs, and to find out if it's worth it to upgrade to DDR3 or not

HotHardware takes a look at Intel's New Solid State Disks In RAID 0

With a bit of that "Friday on our minds" attitude adjustment going on in the lab, we decided to RAID a pair of Intel's new X25-M series SSDs up to see what they could do. Blinding speed in RAID 0 mode? Yes, you could say that...

Noctua U12P CPU Cooler Review
Tech-Reviews.co.uk posted Noctua U12P CPU Cooler Review

The Noctua NH-U12P is the latest of a whole series of coolers from Noctua. This latest version with so-called greater "main board compatibility" aims to be as successful as it predecessors especially with its acclaimed quiet cooling performance. However, has this heatsink and fan combination really surpassed expectations enough to warrant claims as being on a whole new level as its manufacturers would have us believe?

Mitsubishi LaserVue 65" HDTV - We Meet Again
TheTechLounge posted a review on the Mitsubishi LaserVue 65" HDTV

Kurtis and I got another chance to check out Mitsubishi's LaserVue DLP set in the early morning hours this Tuesday, and this time we were armed with some juicy, hand-picked HD goodness. Last time around, we only got to see content provided by Mitsubishi that was playing from a hard drive player hooked up to each set over HDMI. There were some great clips in this material, but we felt that we would be doing the Internets a terrible injustice to base our opinions solely on clips straight from the proverbial horse's mouth. If you missed our coverage of the LaserVue launch event from a couple weeks ago, that's where we got down with the specs and features of the new Mitsubishi set. This trip was all about picture quality.
