Cooler Master HAF 932 AMD Limited Edition Case Review
Bigbruin.com has published a review on the Cooler Master HAF 932 AMD Limited Edition Case

I can honestly say that the Cooler Master HAF 932 AMD limited edition is a great case. The style is first-class, the red front face plate is gorgeous, and the side panel window with AMD dragon graphic is really cool. The tool-less design is very well thought out, and the included 8-pin power cable extension and caster wheels are a very pleasant surprise.

ATI Catalyst 10.1 Windows 7 Driver Analysis
TweakTown posted an ATI Catalyst 10.1 Windows 7 Driver Analysis

Let's not kid ourselves. Just days before the end of the month comes to a close, ATI squeezes out a Catalyst driver, I think it's safe to say that this driver is more so to keep the flawless monthly release record than to bring massive improvements or new features.

The driver seems so rushed out that someone forgot to update the Catalyst Control Center to actually say 10.1. Instead it still says 9.12. Terry Makedon @ CatalystMaker even said on Twitter that this is just a standard release driver to fix some bugs.

ASRock H55DE3 Motherboard Review
Hardware Secrets posted a review on the ASRock H55DE3 Motherboard

ASRock is a manufacturer targeted to the entry-level market, competing with ECS on this particular segment. It's been a while since we've last took a look on their motherboards, so we were really curious to see their H55 solutions. So far they released four H55-based motherboards. Let's take a look on H55DE3.

PC Stats posted a review on the Gigabyte GA-P55-UD5 Intel P55 Motherboard

Gigabyte's GA-P55-UD5 socket-1156 motherboard is an enthusiast grade Intel P55 Express platform with a ton of extra features packed into it. Along with the obvious support of Intel Core i5 and Core i7 800-series socket 1156 processors, the GA-P55-UD5 board features three physical PCI Express x16 2.0 slots that support both ATI Crossfire and NVIDIA SLI modes.

Silverstone NT07-AM2 1U Low Profile AMD Heatsink Review
FrostyTech posted a review on the Silverstone NT07-AM2 1U Low Profile AMD Heatsink

The Silverstone NT07-AM2 is 1U low profile skived aluminum heatsink that is actively cooled by a small top-mounted 80mm fan. The entire heatsink
measures just 36mm high, making it ideal for 1U, slim-line and book-sized PC cases. It weighs just 330 grams and operates very quietly. Although it's 80mm 1500-2500RPM PWM fan isn't much to get excited about, when used to cool an energy efficient AMD processor having a TDP of 65W or less, the Silverstone NT07-AM2 is sufficient.

NZXT Hades Crafted Mid-Tower Case Review
OCIA.net has posted their review of the NZXT Hades Crafted Mid-Tower Case

Last week we took a look at the NZXT Tempest EVO, and today we have up for review the latest in their Crafted series, the Hades. Not since the Lexa Blackline have we seen an NZXT case with red lighting. Whether this switch from the all too common blue LEDs has any significance in the naming of this case or not, red is definitely becoming more and more popular with the various case manufacturers. The Hades is a nine bay, mid-tower design that like many in NZXT's Crafted series, has sculpted front and side panels. Black is the only color available and there is no side window, however there are several other features NZXT has incorporated into this case that are worth a closer look.

Corsair Dominator GTX Series PC3-19200 4GB Kit Review
TweakTown posted a review on the Corsair Dominator GTX Series PC3-19200 4GB Kit

Towards the end of December we saw PC3-17600 show its face. What you had was 2200MHz DDR modules with some pretty relaxed timings. Then in waltzes Corsair, strutting their stuff with a PC3-18000 kit that carried with it a default clock of 2250MHz DDR and some impressive timings to boot. If that wasn't enough, the fact that we then got another 100MHz+ DDR out of the kit with the same timings was just awesome.

Another week goes by and we find ourselves looking at a kit that might be carrying some slightly more relaxed timings, but a massive stock clock. PC3-19200 is the number you need to know today. Let's jump forward a page and find out what that huge number translates to.

HP DeskJet F4480 All-in-One Inkjet Printer Review
TestFreaks posted a review on the HP DeskJet F4480 All-in-One Inkjet Printer

Geeks.com has sent me over the HP DeskJet F4480 for review and it costs about $53, not including shipping. The F4480 is considered an all-in-one printer as it can scan, copy and print for you, but there's no fax so to me it's not really an all-in-one. The F4480 though is small and it looks decent, it comes with a flat-bed scanner as one might expect since it can copy, it's also quiet and fairly fast at printing. So is an inexpensive printer worth it or should you just save your money and get one that costs more?

Thermaltake DuOrb VGA Cooler Review
Bona Fide Reviews posted a review on the Thermaltake DuOrb VGA Cooler

Today for review I've got the Thermaltake DuOrb VGA cooler. The DuOrb is nice looking product, it's copper and it has blue LEDs in it for a little color in your case. I've got a Diamond ATI 4870 1gig that has a stock coo ler that works fairly well, but it can get rather loud under load so I had high hopes that the DuOrb could keep my card cool and quiet at the same time

Silverstone Fortress FT02 Mid-Tower Case Review
Hardware Canucks posted a review of the new Silverstone Fortress FT02 Mid-Tower Case

The mid tower case market is cluttered with products all vying for your attention but Silverstone's new Fortress FT02 dares to be different by incorporating a new "stack cool" design for component placement. This innovative layout can either spell disaster for this $200 ATX case or will put it in a league of its own.

Cooler Master Gladiator 600 Mid Tower Case Review
Hi Tech Legion posted a review on the Cooler Master Gladiator 600 Mid Tower Case

The Gladiator 600 fits squarely into their mainstream offerings, with a few options often seen on higher priced offerings. The Cooler Master Gladiator 600 comes with a top mount 140mm exhaust fan installed, along with a front 120mm intake fan (with blue LED for those who wish to use it), accommodations for 2 120/140mm side fans and 120mm rear fan, and a bottom mount for the power supply (not included) that exhausts through the bottom of the case. Obviously, cooling was not an afterthought. Airflow through the case is clean thanks to an excellent motherboard tray with a wide array of cable routing options.

ASRock P55 Extreme Intel P55 LGA 1156 Motherboard Review
ThinkComputers.org posted a review on the ASRock P55 Extreme Intel P55 LGA 1156 Motherboard

Prior to about a year ago, ASRock boards were definitely in the economy class. Oh, they were decent, stable motherboards, but they just had the look and feel of inexpensive. Not so today, ASRocks boards are just as nice as those built by the household name companies like Gigabyte, Asus, etc. Today I will be looking at the little brother to the P55 Deluxe, the ASRock P55 Extreme. I suppose little brother isnt the correct term since the two are basically the same board with only one change I can see at first glance, but the savings are significant. As with all ASRock boards, you get what is a full-featured motherboard at an economy price. Read on to check out the P55 Extreme!

Axle GeForce G210 Review
OCC has published a review on the Axle GeForce G210

The Axle GeForce G210 video card was able to provide you with what it says you get, a video card that supports Direct X10 games and has 512MB of GDDR3 memory. The video card itself was able to handle all of the games and benchmarks that I threw at it, however it was unable to provide any decent looking scores in any of the games even with the relaxed settings that we use for lower end video cards.

NZXT Tempest-EVO Computer Case Review
Benchmark Reviews posted a review on the NZXT Tempest-EVO Computer Case

Following the success of the original Tempest mid-tower computer case, NZXT tinkered around with its designs and came up with the NZXT Tempest Evo. The two cases share many of the same assets, and are both priced at $119.99. The Tempest Evo features an array of upgrades, including a unified paint job and better cable management. With a total of six 120mm intake/exhaust fans, the NZXT Tempest Evo mid-tower case promises excellent airflow. Benchmark Reviews takes a detailed inspection of the NZXT Tempest Evo mid-tower computer case, model TEVO-001BK, to see how much of an "evolution" it is and how close it comes to perfection.

ASUS P7H57D-V EVO (H57 Express) Motherboard Review
TweakTown posted a review on the ASUS P7H57D-V EVO (H57 Express) Motherboard

ASUS is a manufacturer known for the features they stuff into their motherboards. This has been viewed as both a benefit and an annoyance, but in the end you cannot deny that ASUS does know how to make a motherboard with performance in mind.

ASUS has now brought this mindset to bear for the H55 and H57 chipset. Although the H55 and H57 are aimed at the mainstream and entry level market, ASUS has not allowed this to stop them from making an enthusiast level product. Today we take a look at the P7H57D-V EVO. This board has both USB 3.0 and SATA 3.0 as well as ASUS’ Turbo EVO software for quick and stable overclocking.

Kingston SSDNow V+ Series (Rev 2.0) 128GB SSD Review
Futurelooks checks out a new value SSD from Kingston

It's only taken a couple years for the SSD (Solid State Drive) talk to die down. Or, has it? A lot of folks weren't sure about the technology when it first launched. But as more Controllers and different flavors of NAND are thrown in to the mix, performance and pricing are starting to convince us. It would appear that MLC isn't as useless or as bad as originally thought.
