Thermaltake Power Express 250W Review
techPowerUp! posted a new review on the Thermaltake Power Express 250W

The Thermaltake Power Express 250W is a video card power supply specifically designed for the needs of current high-end video cards. When you have an older PSU you may not be able to run Crossfire or SLI because the PSU can not supply enough power for the video cards to run stable. When installed, the Power Express will supply 12V to your video card(s), taking a lot of strain off your main power supply.

ATI Radeon X1900 XT 256MB Review
bit-tech.net put up an ATI Radeon X1900 XT 256MB review

This sub-200 card is a reduced memory version of the full-fat card we saw earlier this year. It goes toe-to-toe with the 7950 GT - can it prove its muscle in our game test suite?

Toshiba TransMemory 2gig Thumb Drive Review
3D Game Man posted a review on the Toshiba TransMemory 2gig Thumb Drive

The Toshiba drive has a great product here. The TransMemory thumb drive performs well but not as fast as the PNY drive. The Toshiba drive fell
behind on almost every score between the two competitors. This was only by a slight margin however and would only be noticeable between the two when transferring large files at the same time on two computers side by side.

It comes clocked at 587MHz core and 1.38GHz memory by default with no tweaking needed.

NZXT Zero Review
Techgage posted a review of NZXTs Zero case

Building a PC requires several considerations. What's in it? What's powering it? What case do I use? How do I cool it? For using air cooling there's a wide world of cases open to you but if you're using aftermarket water cooling your options start to narrow. Today we look at a new case from NZXT that lends itself to both air and water cooling.

Slim Devices Squeezebox Network Music Player Review
XYZ Computing posted a review on the Slim Devices Squeezebox Network Music Player

This review will be looking at the third revision of the Squeezebox. This device is a prime example of the integration of a useful idea and great design. The Squeezebox is encased in high gloss black plastic and a bit of brushed aluminum and uses a slick VFD as a display. The design is iPod-esque but results in a device which looks cool enough to fit in any where. The small size of the device means it is easy to place; this is aided by the fact that it has built in wireless connectivity. As we saw with the Sonos digital music system, a LAN (or WLAN) is a great way to connect a digital music repository (such as a computer or NAS device) to one's home stereo. The Squeezebox also gives users access to internet radio and subscription services in addition to their own music.

APACK ZeroTherm BTF90 CPU Cooler Review
ThinkComputers.org posted a review on the APACK ZeroTherm BTF90 CPU Cooler

ZeroTherm is a relatively new name when it comes to PC cooling. I'm sure most of you have not heard of them. Well today we are talking a look at ZeroTherm's BTF90 CPU cooler. It is an all copper CPU cooler with a set of 4 heatpipes that make their way through the array of fins. The fin design is something I have not seen before. That makes me curious to see how well the BTF90 will perform. So let's get this review started!

Foxconn 975X7AB Motherboard Review
Pro-Clockers takes a look at the Foxconn 975X7AB Motherboard

The motherboard that reigns at the top of Foxconn's list for Intel processors is the 975X7AB. The board offers all the bells and whistles of the 975X chipset for about hundred dollars cheaper than most and offers a lot of performance to boot. Well, it's time to see how well the 975X7AB stacks up against the rest.

Macally Protective Keyliner and Screen Wiper For Laptops Review
Laptop Lifestyle checks out Macally Protective Keyliner and Screen Wiper For Laptops

The most valueable piece of any Laptop is the screen. Otherwise, it'd just be a really small desktop system with a built in keyboard and touchpad mouse. Keeping the screen protected and clean should be top priority for any laptop user. We check out a product from Macally that accomplishes both.

Zalman Fatal1ty FC-ZE1 Computer Case Review
Tweaknews.net posted a review on the Zalman Fatal1ty FC-ZE1 Computer Case

Zalman's association with Johnathan “Fatal1ty” Wendel has yielded yet another outstanding product. The FC-ZE1 Champion Series computer enclosure is a superb chassis with great aesthetics and the performance to back it up. The design, quality, craftsmanship and materials brought to bear in the creation of this chassis are second to none and culminate in a product that is, in my opinion, without peer. The design elements in combination with a rich, innovative feature set make installation a breeze and allow the case to exhibit great cooling performance while keeping noise to a minimum.

Is AMD really f&$@£d?
HEXUS has posted an article on the current state of AMD

...businesses don’t think quite so short term as this, and they also don’t just think about raw performance. This is particularly true when it comes to mass purchases for corporate use, which has traditionally been an area where Intel has been virtually impregnable. Whatever is happening regarding the performance crown, AMD is making inroads into the business market like never before.

Enermax Phoenix Mid-Tower Case Review
Pro-Clockers posted a review on the Enermax Phoenix Mid-Tower Case

I haven't ever owned a single product from Enermax before, so I'm really looking forward to checking out some of their products. With that said, today we'll be looking at one of their newly released PC mid-tower cases, the Phoenix. The Phoenix is based on an extremely popular base chassis that a lot of other case vendors are using, so what sets them apart from each other is the front bezel design and feature set included with the case.

So let's get on with the review and see just what Enermax brings to the table with their new Phoenix mid-tower, but first here's a little about Enermax, the company.

ICY DOCK MB454SPF-B Internal 4-Bay Drive Rack Review
Virtual-Hideout posted a review on the ICY DOCK MB454SPF-B Internal 4-Bay Drive Rack

The construction is high quality, with a very slick operation for removing and installing the sleds. I like the fact that it's 4 Hard drives only taking up 3 optical drives. Simple install, compatible with RAID arrays and no drop in performance are all great features.

ASUS EN7950GT video card Review
Elite Bastards posted a review on the ASUS EN7950GT video card

Despite the use of the GeForce 7950 moniker here, previously only used with their dual-GPU GeForce 7950 GX2 boards, don't be fooled into thinking that this part follows the path trodden by that high-end SKU. Unlike the aforementioned board, the GeForce 7950 GT remains well and truly in single GPU territory, with just a single, fully featured 90 nanometre G71 core a la its predecessor, the GeForce 7900 GT. This means that we're looking at a GPU equipped with twenty-four fragment pipelines (or six fragment quads), sixteen ROPs and eight vertex shaders, and utilising a 256-bit memory bus.

The major differences between the GeForce 7900 and 7950 GT are two-fold. First (and no doubt thanks to falling memory prices) the GeForce 7950 GT comes complete with 512MB of memory, compared to the 256MB available with its predecessor. Secondly, both core and memory clocks have received a speed bump in the process, with a reference GeForce 7950 GT enjoying clock speeds of 550MHz core and 700MHz RAM, giving the board a 100MHz higher core and 40MHz higher memory clock over the GeForce 7900 GT.

Dell Ultrasharp 2407WFP 24" Widescreen LCD Review
The Tech Lounge posted a review on the Dell Ultrasharp 2407WFP 24" Widescreen LCD

For the past few years, Dell has been the king of LCD monitors, especially for those who are on a budget. That isn’t to say their LCDs are low quality, however, they just ship very high volumes and can afford to have very competetive prices. Dell's UltraSharp 2407WFP 24" LCD is certainly monstrous, but as the saying goes, bigger isn’t always better. We’ll put this bad boy to the test to see if it's worth dropping the cash on.

Mandriva Linux 2007 PowerPack Edition Review
Software in Review takes a look at Mandriva Linux 2007 PowerPack Edition

Though delayed for a while and later to market than most Mandriva fans would probably prefer, the new Mandriva Linux 2007 PowerPack Edition is finally here, nearly a year after the previous release. 2007 is typical Mandriva through and through: attractively themed in KDE, easy to install without skipping the technical details, a little bug-ridden here and there, and full of new and interesting software technologies. This release does have its own identity, though; not only has the standard theme been redesigned for the first time in several years, but this is the first Mandriva release to include a "legal" DVD movie player.
