HIS Radeon 6850 1GB Review
Viperlair posted a review on the HIS Radeon 6850 1GB

The performance of the card is really good at this price point, and sits in the lower mid-range very well. In all our testing, the HIS Radeon 6850 1GB either matched or beat our comparison card, a card that AMD would like you to compare to their 6870; I think they are being a little conservative here, or perhaps that's the point. The 6850 will perform better than or at least the same as a more expensive GTX 460 1GB.

Synology DS211 NAS Review – the ultimate budget NAS?
Kitguru posted a review on the Synology DS211 NAS

Synology have launched two new products this week, the DS411j which we reviewed several days ago and the DS211 which we are looking at today. The DS411j is a quad drive NAS system supporting up to 8TB and the DS211 is a higher performance dual drive NAS offering a maximum of 4TB.

The Synology DS211 is a mainstream oriented unit which targets the home and small office sectors, retailing at £225 inc vat. It doesn’t offer as much storage capacity as the DS411j but the performance differences are reported by Synology to be significant.

Samsung Omnia 7 Preview
InsideHW.com has previewed Samsung Omnia 7 smartphone

During an event that had absolutely nothing to do with Microsoft, and even less with their new Windows Phone 7, we came across an opportunity to test out the latest smartphone bearing the Samsung signature using the very same Windows Phone 7 operating system...

As a hardcore Windows Mobile and HTC HD2 user, would I trade in my current phone for a Samsung Omnia 7 with Windows Phone 7 or an HTC DesireHD with Android? Honestly, I'd rather opt for Omnia 7.

Psyko Audio 5.1 Surround Sound Gaming Headset Review
Legit Reveiws posted a review on the Psyko Audio 5.1 Surround Sound Gaming Headset

Psyko Audio Lab's PsykoWave Technology empowers PC Gamers with what they call an unfair advantage over the competition through precise 3D sound that drastically heightens awareness of your gaming surroundings. Players can instantly identify and locate every gun shot, footstep, and explosion allowing for faster reaction times, higher player performance, and the most immersive gaming experience to date. Could a gaming headset really change your experience so much?

Psychoacoustic technology is fascinating and seeing the fruits of this research come to life in the Psyko 5.1 Gaming Headset is truly a site to behold and I think that Psyko Labs will continue to develop and refine the technology they have invented that is showcased in this headset. I think the most important aspect that needs to be taken away from this article is that this particular headset is not like its competitors in that it is not in any way shape or form a tool to make your gaming experience like a trip to the local THX movie theater, but it is more like a trip to kicking the asses of your opponents by getting the drop on where they are before they get to you...

NZXT HALE90 850W Review
Rbmods posted a review on the NZXT HALE90 850W

The HALE90 power supply unit from NZXT is by every standard a high performance PSU. Advertising 100% Japanese Capacitors, active PFC, and a single 12v rail design these are obviously not targeted to the average home or office consumer.

Cooler Master Storm SF-19 Strike Force Laptop Cooler Review
OCIA.net has posted their review of the Cooler Master Storm SF-19 Strike Force Laptop Cooler.

The Cooler Master Storm Strike Force SF-19 appears no different in basic design from most other notebook coolers. It features a generally wedge-shaped base with some venting and fans housed inside, some rubber non-slip feet and a smattering of controls on either side. The Storm series of products is geared towards gamers and the SF-19 claims compatibility with up to 19" laptops. Additionally it supports USB 3.0 and offers some variable lighting effects.

Guide & Tool for Sharing Ceton InfiniTV Tuners with Client MCE Systems
MissingRemote has released a new Guide for Sharing Ceton InfiniTV Tuners with Client MCE Systems

We have good news, and we have some bad news. The good news is that Ceton has graciously allowed MissingRemote.com to publish a guide to Tuner Sharing with the Ceton InfiniTV beta firmware. The bad news is that it is still in beta. What does that mean to you? Unless you are already part of the beta program you will not be able to utilize the HTPC bliss that is shared Digital Cable tuners. Before anyone starts scouring the Internet for the beta firmware, your InfiniTV serial numbers needs to be registered as part of the beta program for the firmware to install, don’t waste your time. Let's get started. The first portion of the guide will focus on the PC with the InfiniTV physically installed in it--I will refer to it as the Host PC. The second portion will walk you through any steps needed on Client HTPCs for Media Center to discover and use the InfiniTV.

ARTISAN KAI.g3 HIEN SOFT Large Mouse Pad Review
Bona Fide Reviews posted a review on the ARTISAN KAI.g3 HIEN SOFT Large Mouse Pad

Today for review I’ve got another mouse pad from Grow Up Japan, this one is a very big one called the ARTISAN KAI.g3 HIEN SOFT Large. It measures 17.7 x 11.8 inches so you’ll need a rather large desk to accommodate it but it’s well worth as it’s a pad that’s excellent in quality and it allows your mouse to just glide across it effortlessly.

Dry Doc Digi 2 Water Proof Case Review
TestFreaks posted a quick review on the Dry Doc Digi 2 Water Proof Case

It’s Friday and I’ve got a quick review for you of a product that’s meant to offer protection to your electronic gadgets like phones and MP3 players from water, dust and pretty much anything else. It’s called the Dry Doc Digi 2 and it’s from a company Seattle Sports. It’s a simple product that’s very easy to use, it’s basically a zip style thick plastic bag, but it has straps built in to protect from loss or damage from being dropped.

Ocaholic posted a review on the Gigabyte GA-EX58A-UD9

With the GA-EX58-UD9 Gigabyte focussed really hard on creating an absolute high-end motherboard. With all its features or simply just its huge size with an XL-ATX form factor this board acts in a league of its own and we're very curious about the result on the following pages.
