We review the Core i7 3820 processor. The chip features four computing cores with Hyper-Threading support working at 3.6GHz (3.9GHz max Turbo), 10MB of Level 3 cache memory, a quad-channel memory controller, and a built-in 40-lane PCI Express 3.0 controller.

If that wasn't enough of the new HD 7700 series we also checked out the dual fan MSI HD 7770 and proceeded to see how high we could overclock the model. After all that was done and I found myself looking at the reference HD 7770 we have here today from AMD. I realized that we actually haven't looked at reference clock performance of the new model.

The Samsung WB700 is one of Samsung's digital compact cameras that has stood out in amongst the performance range. The Samsung WB700 features an LCD display and a massive 18x Zoom packed into this relatively small unit. The WB700 is essentially a compacted DSLR camera...
