Gigabyte 890FXA-UD7 Review
PureOverclock posted a review of the Gigabyte 890FXA-UD7 motherboard

Gigabyte has made what we'd call an "Ultra High-End" board for AM3, if you'd want to call it that. Made for overclocking and for QuadFire, it's not for the timid of heart, or budget. But at least it won't require a 2nd mortgage like the UD9 would. Let's take a closer look at the Gigabyte 890FX-UD7.

Lamptron Touch Fan Controller Review
Hardware Canucks posted a video review of the new Lamptron Touch Fan Controller

The fan controller market has been pretty stagnant over its long lifetime, with the only real changes coming when manufacturers were able to introduce LCD’s for their products. Now Lamptron is taking things to the next level by introducing a fan controller with a touch screen interface. Their aptly named “Touch” incorporates all the features one would expect from a high end controller and then some. In this review we take the Touch for a spin to see if it has what it takes to be known as the next evolution in fan controller design.

ECS P55H-AK Intel P55 Motherboard Review
Benchmark Reviews posted a review on the ECS P55H-AK Intel P55-Express Motherboard

It is common knowledge that today's Intel Core i5 and i7 series of LGA 1156 CPU's are capable of achieving the 4GHz milestone. You should also know that to push past that milestone, and remain stable, you will need a high end motherboard designed specifically for that task. ECS ELITEGROUP have been around for many years but have never really been seen as an enthusiast brand. That may be about to change today, as Benchmark Reviews brings you the ECS P55H-AK Motherboard (P/N 89-206-Y66100), which is part of the Black Series offerings from ECS. As is the norm at Benchmark Reviews, we overclock the ECS P55H-AK to its limits and find out just what it is capable of achieving.

ASUS Sabertooth X58 Review
OCC has published a review on the ASUS Sabertooth X58

The Sabertooth X58 provided stable stock and high speed operation without fault. The design of the motherboard is well laid out and the quality of the components used is high. The CPU socket area is very open and free of clutter which should entice some extreme overclockers into trying the motherboard out and its array of more resilient electronics. The color scheme looks good and is uncommon among the PC community. That can be both good and bad as being unique is always special but it also means that to have perfectly matching components to the motherboard, it may require DIY modding and some intensive searching.

MSI GTX460 Talon Attack Vs Powercolor HD5770 CrossFireX
KitGuru posted a comparison review between MSI GTX460 Talon Attack Vs Powercolor HD5770 CrossFireX

KitGuru has been a vocal advocate of the GTX 460 – we believe it is the best value for money card on the market right now. Equally so we have also been singing the praises of AMD’s HD5770 since it was released, especially as a paired up, high performance, low cost Crossfire solution. What better than taking prime examples of each set up, clocking them to extremes and launching them at each other, using KitGuru’s Large Hadron Benchmark Collider? Don your safety gear and let the smashing begin!
