BFG Tech MX 550w Modular Power Supply Review
OCIA.net has posted their review of the BFG Tech MX 550w Modular Power Supply

Last week I took the BFG Tech MX 680w Power Supply out for a spin, which earned our Seal of Approval based on several different criteria. The unit was rock solid stable, silent, modular and would look great in most any system. But for the user on a budget or those not into hardcore gaming, the 680 watts offered is simply overkill. If you fall into this category, have no fear, as BFG Tech has something right up your alley, the MX 550w PSU. Virtually identical to its 680w bigger brother, the 550 unit we have on the test bench today is about $25 cheaper, money that could be put towards other hardware or simply stashed away for a rainy day. Will the smaller MX 550w be able to follow in the footsteps of the beefier 680 model?

Creative SE2300 Bluetooth Headphones Review
t-break posted a review on the Creative SE2300 Bluetooth Headphones

The right piece of the headset has controls for powering the device as well as putting it in pairing mode. You also have buttons for skipping between audio tracks and pausing which worked very well in Windows Media Player as well as iTunes on my iMac and the Blackberry Bold. A volume control is also present on the headset but instead of changing your desktop/notebook's volume, it changes the headset's volume levels.

Western Digital's WD TV HD Media Player - Video Review
TweakTown posted a review on Western Digital's WD TV HD Media Player

You could think of it as a DVD player without the optical DVD drive and a home theater PC without the full functionality of a computer. It really is just that - it doesn't come with any internal storage and sadly no Ethernet networking support, but it does include two hi-speed USB 2.0 ports, which allows you to hook up two external hard drives or USB flash drives which use a FAT32, NTFS or HFS+ (no journaling) file system.

The WD TV allows you to view photos, listen to music and watch movies on your TV. We have seen several devices like in this part, but none as good as this one. As for photos, WD TV supports JPEG, GIF, TIF/TIFF, BMP and PNG file formats. As for music, it supports MP3, WMA, OGG, WAV/PCM/LPCM, AAC, FLAC, Dolby Digital, AIF/AIFF and MKA file formats. As for movies, it supports MPEG1/2/4, WMV9, AVI (MPEG4, Xvid, AVC), H.264, MKV, MOV (MPEG4, H.264),MTS, TP and TS file formats. You will need to update your WD TV firmware to version 1.01 for all of these formats to be supported. Ours came already updated, so you may or may not need to depending on how long yours has been sitting around in the warehouse.

Gainward 285GTX Graphics Card Review
Metku.net took a closer look at Gainward's 285GTX Graphics Card

The 285GTX is a nice update of the 280GTX. Sure, the core is about the same as the GT200 found on the 280GTX but the card runs cooler and the newer manufacturing technology used for the GT200b chip gives us some more headroom in clock speeds.
