Fujifilm FinePix F300EXR Review
TechReviewSource.com posted a review on the Fujifilm FinePix F300EXR

The Fujifilm FinePix F300EXR is a contender in terms of its specifications to be a really strong digital camera. It has a 15x optical zoom, 12-megapixel Super CCD sensor, and a sweep panorama mode. It does have some huge drawbacks, however, like noticeable shutter lag, a slow autofocus and difficulty in low-lighting conditions.

Gigabyte Radeon HD 6870 Review
The Guru of 3D posted a review on the Gigabyte Radeon HD 6870 video card

Gigabyte submitted their Radeon HD 6870, and as much as Gigabyte would have liked to customize it, AMD is not yet allowing custom model of this unit. So the product they shipped is except for the sticker, very much similar to the reference Radeon HD 6870.

That doesn't mean we don't want to check it out of course ... the R6870 is an impressive piece of hardware for the money you need to put down on the table.

ThinkComputers.org posted a review on the BitFenix Colossus Full Tower Case

I’ve been reviewing computer hardware for quite some time now and it is safe to say I’ve seen my fair share of cases.

Well today is that day and BitFenix is the company. The case in question is their Colossus Full Tower case, which features a very unique lighting design, USB 3.0 ports, great cooling, tons of room inside and much more.

Mionix Naos 3200 Review
OCC has published a review on the Mionix Naos 3200

Looking back at the specifications and the intent of the mouse, you are going to be quite happy with what Mionix has come up with. As this mouse is a step down from the Naos 5000, you are not going to be able to get the same DPI settings. They are limited to 3200 while the Naos 5000 are maxed out at 5000. The Mionix Naos 3200 has a rubber coating around the outside of the mouse. This is going to help you grip the mouse easier while you are gaming, especially once your hand starts to sweat and let's be honest, we all have had some sweating palms in the middle of an intense round.

BitFenix Colossus E-ATX Computer Case Review
Benchmark Reviews posted a review on the BitFenix Colossus E-ATX Computer Case

BitFenix is very much a newcomer to the saturated market of computer cases. They are looking to get their foot in the door, and make a big name for themselves. With the introduction of the Colossus case, it is clear they intend to make a very large impression on the market. As the name implies, this large tower form factor case is almost two full feet tall and deep, so you know it lives up to the name Colossus. Benchmark Reviews has been given the opportunity to take a look at the Colossus. With advertised features such as a security-minded top storage/access panel, unique exterior LED lighting system, and massive cooling capabilities, this case has much promise to be a great debut for BitFenix as a company. Will it live up to the Colossus name, and up to Benchmark Reviews' standards? Read the full review to find out!

ASRock 870i Cafe Review
PureOverclock posted a review on the ASRock 870i Cafe motherboard

ASRock has really impressed us lately with their excellent value products, particularly with budget-oriented motherboards for consumers hunting for performance on the cheap. While not record-breaking boards, we love the value they offer in the mainstream market segment. For review, we've got the ASRock 870i Cafe, an 870 based motherboard. While it doesn't look like much, it does have some great value, given its price.

"Gaming Laptops" with faster running processors and higher end graphic cards that will really heat up quickly and we all know that heat can bring any system to its knees and shorten the life of the system.

Antec Lanboy Air Case Review
Tweaknews posted a review on the Antec Lanboy Air Case

After getting my first look at Antec's LanBoy Air chassis almost a year ago, I've been hoping to get my hands on one for review. Having examined it for the past couple of weeks, I'm not in the least disappointed. With a rich and innovative feature set, superb cooling, almost limitless configuration options and an intelligent overall design scheme, the LanBoy Air pushes the envelope of PC chassis evolution.

Thortech Thunderbolt Plus 800 W Power Supply Review
Hardware Secrets posted a review on the Thortech Thunderbolt Plus 800 W Power Supply

GeIL, the well-known memory manufacturer, has decided to enter the power supply market, but differently from other memory manufacturers that followed the same path (OCZ, Corsair, etc), they have created an entire new brand, Thortech (named after Thor, the Norse god). Right now Thortech is offering only 80 Plus Gold units, under their Thunderbolt and Thunderbolt Plus series. The only difference between the two series is that Thunderbold Plus models come with a digital power meter for you to install in any 5.25" bay of your case. Let's take a look if the Thunderbold Plus 800 W model lives up to the expectation.

NZXT Phantom & Hale90 650W Review
techPowerUp posted a review on the NZXT Phantom & Hale90 650W

The NZXT Phantom is the first truly brand-new case from the company in a very long time. It looks great, comes in multiple colors and packs a long list of useful and well balanced features. We take a look at the white version along with the white Hale90, the first 80Plus Gold certified PSU from NZXT and end up quite impressed by both products.

XFX HD6850 Black Edition Review
KitGuru posted a review on the XFX HD6850 Black Edition

Last friday AMD released the HD6870 and HD6850 series to a warm reception. Many journalists (including myself) admired the competitive price points with class leading performance … finally AMD had the performance edge to compete directly with the GTX 460′s.

Today we have one of the first pre-overclocked HD6850′s – the XFX HD6850 Black Edition. So new in fact that it has been hand selected from the production process and shipped to us in the reference HD6850 box. Being Guruâ€:tm:s of Kit however, we did manage to get a picture of the final retail box, not even off the production line.

NZXT Phantom Review
Vortez.co.uk posted a review on the NZXT Phantom

For a young company NZXT have certainly been maturing this past year into a formidable force within the market. Not only have they launched some interesting products this year but they have also revamped their website to engage better with their users. Up until now, their full tower cases haven't had strong standing within the community but today's product hopes to change all of this.

The Phantom was uncovered at the Computex 2010 event in Tapei earlier in the year and ever since its first appearance has caused much anticipation. The Phantom is a full tower case available in 3 different colours - black, white and red. Paramount to its features is the accommodating interior. According to the specifications this case will harbour any graphics card currently on the market, endorse water-cooling and even seat E-ATX motherboards. I've seen the pictures, and I can't say I'm not excited about this review, so lets go ahead without further delay.

Dell XPS 14 Notebook Review
HotHardware.com posted a review on the Dell XPS 14 Notebook

Break out your party hats and spike the punch, we're throwing a 'Welcome Back' party. The guest of honor is Dell's XPS brand, whose return is marked by a new family of laptops built around Intel's Calpella platform and featuring Nvidia's Optimus technology. At this point you're probably scratching your head and wondering if we've been drinking too much punch ourselves, because the XPS brand never went anywhere, right? That's both true and false. The XPS moniker never died off completely, but it was relegated to Dell's Studio line and XPS One all-in-one (AIO) desktops for a time.

Dell tells us they've listened to their customers and decided to simplify their brand structure. After deciding that the "XPS brand has a great heritage and strong association with performance," those three letters are making a comeback starting with the above mentioned laptop line. The model we're reviewing today is the Dell XPS 14 (L401x)...
