Bigbruin.com has published a new review on the OCZ Technology 60GB Agility Solid State Drive

The OCZ Technology 60GB Agility solid state drive offers impressive performance in both read and write testing. It came close to achieving its rated sequential read speed of 230MB/s in each benchmark, but what was particularly impressive was that it consistently exceeded its rated sequential write speed of 135MB/s.

Sapphire Vapor-X HD 5750 1GB GDDR5 Graphics Card Review
Testseek posted a review of Sapphire Vapor-X HD 5750 1GB GDDR5 graphics card

The Radeon 5000 series of graphics cards were rather recently released by AMD/ATI and for the very first time in a couple of years, AMD/ATI (hereafter referred to as only AMD) is back in the performance lead. NVIDEA will release their next generation of graphics cards rather soon but no date is set and very little information about it has leaked to the press.

Intel Core i7-975 Extreme Edition Processor Review
TechARP posted a review on the Intel Core i7-975 Extreme Edition Processor

The Intel Core i7 is a new line of desktop processors based on the new Nehalem microarchitecture, which evolved from the Core microarchitecture which powered the highly successful Intel Core 2 line of microprocessors. Like its predecessors, the new Core i7 processors is manufactured using Intel's 45 nm fabrication process with high-k (hafnium) dielectric and metal gate technology. However, that is where the similarity ends.

Unlike the Core 2 processors, the new Core i7 processors have a monolithic design. That means the entire quad-core processor is fabricated on a single die. The quad-core version of the Core 2 processor, on the other hand, combines two dual-core dies in a multi-chip package (MCP). The Core i7 processor also introduces a slew of new technologies :

- an integrated DDR3 memory controller
- a three-tier cache design
- QuickPath Interconnect
- Intel Turbo Mode technology

Today, we will be taking a close look at the new Intel Core i7-975 Extreme Edition processor, which debuted on June 3, 2009. As Extreme Edition moniker hints, this processor comes with unlocked multipliers as well as a correspondingly hefty price tag.

But how fast is it really? After all, this is a high-end enthusiast-grade processor with a very, very hefty price tag. It had better be a couple of Mach numbers faster than the Core 2 processors! Well, this is what we will be looking into this review. Not only will we examine its performance in games, we will also take a look at its performance in 3D rendering and videoencoding.

Thermaltake Massive23 CS Notebook Cooler Review
iGadget Life posted a review on the Thermaltake Massive23 CS Notebook Cooler

Today for review I've got another notebook or netbook cooler from our friends over at Thermaltake called the Massive23 CS. Not long ago I reviewed the Massive23 ST so the name might sound familiar, but the Massive23 CS is a bit different in that it's all aluminum, the design is more open, and the fan features LEDs to add a bit of color to your day. I've tested it with both my Acer Aspire One D250 and the new Ion based HP Mini 311 netbook to see how well it handles the heat, so read on to learn more about the Massive23 CS and how it performs

Thermaltake Muse eSATA 3.5" Aluminum Hard Drive Enclosure Review
Kristofer from Bona Fide Reviews posted a review on the Thermaltake Muse eSATA 3.5" Aluminum Hard Drive Enclosure

Today for review I have a hard drive enclosure from Thermaltake called the Muse. What makes this enclosure special is that it's eSATA only, no USB port on it at all. This isn't a bad thing though really, eSATA offers vastly faster file transfers over USB as we know. The Muse is a tool-less enclosure making installation very easy for the end-user. So read on to learn more about it and see how it performs

Lian Li PC-X1000 Super Tower Chassis Review
TweakTown posted a review on the Lian Li PC-X1000 Super Tower Chassis

Most of us already know that Lian Li designs some of the best chassis’ in overall concept, materials chosen, and ease of installation/use. The last time I had the pleasure of using a Lian Li chassis, I took a look at the Lian Li PC-B70, and that chassis was a real pleasure to use. It had a huge window, plenty of sexy aluminum inside, and even sexier anodized aluminum on the exterior. The PC-B70 also has sound deadening material placed inside to deaden any unwanted noises inside the chassis. In my opinion this was done to keep up their standard, as chassis’ with windows do allow more noise to travel out of the interior, and possibly annoy the end user.

This time around Lian Li implements a three chambered design in this Tyr series chassis to separate components. The design consists of one at the top that holds optical and possibly hard drives, one that holds the mainboard, CPU and GPU’s, and one at the bottom for more drives and the power supply. This concept is separated by sheets of aluminum and each section or chamber has its own cooling, no sharing in this chassis.

NZXT Gamma Review
OCC has published a review on the NZXT Gamma

As a case designed to fit in the sub $50 market, the NZXT Gamma will fit the bill for a stylish, low-cost case. The all black theme, that is popular right now, is a point of difference between cases, as not all manufacturers paint the inside of the chassis. There are enough drive bays to keep the majority of people happy. While space is at a premium with large heatsinks, they can be installed. The Gamma also is designed to use video cards up to 10 inches in length, so the majority of the cards out right now will fit. Of course, the new behemoths from ATI will definitely need some persuasion and some modification to make them fit.

Xigmatek is relatively new to the chassis market, and their introductory case to the market is the Midgard, and we've got the Midgard-W (W for windowed side) for review.

Cooler Master HAF-932 AMD Edition Case Review
Benchmark Reviews published a review on the Cooler Master HAF-932 AMD Edition Case

What is the purpose of a computer case? The unimaginative might reply that it's to support and protect the components that comprise your computer. But just as the base purpose of a car- to transport people and goods- is frequently a secondary consideration to style and power, so to are there other reasons to select a particular computer case: to look cool and to impress your friends! Functionality doesn't hurt, of course, but there are many examples of cases where function takes a distinctly secondary seat to style. Cooler Master's HAF 932 case has successfully melded the two, and now they've introduced an AMD commemorative version, the Cooler Master HAF 932 AMD Edition AM-932-RWN1-GP full tower computer case. Does it work as well as its forebear? Benchmark Reviews examines the case and builds a system in to let you know.

Ipswitch IMail Server Premium v11.01 Review
Businesscomputingworld posted a review on the Ipswitch IMail Server Premium

Everything a small business needs in a messaging and collaboration server is available in the Ipswitch IMail package and it's certainly a lot easier to setup and manage than Exchange. It's cheaper too, and definitely worth considering. However, it's not the only alternative with a number of competitors that are just as easy to live with, if not easier, especially from the user perspective. Lastly, it's worth just mentioning that the e-mail server market is going through a period of rapid change at present, as the ready availability of fast broadband links makes hosted e-mail services a lot more viable. Google has really upset the apple cart here, with its Google Apps Premier business offering while other providers offer hosted Exchange where you simply rent the mailboxes you need, leaving someone else to worry about the server hosting them.
