Daily Reviews Summary 07/22/10

We test and review the KFA2 GeForce GTX 460 1024MB GC and SOC models. The 'default' GeForce GTX 460 GC editions have the GPU running at 700 MHz instead of just 675 MHz, as well as shader and memory clocks of 1,400 MHz (stock is 1350 MHz) and 3696 MHz, respectively.

The GTX 460 Super OC models, on the other hand, flexes its GPU muscle all the way up toward a blazing 810 MHz, with the shaders at 1,620 MHz and the GDDR5 at 4,000 MHz (effective).

Armed with a 2-year limited warranty, KFA2 are trying real hard to not only bring a nice custom board to the market, but also want to be the fastest of all.

Sometimes when you’re on the go, electric outlets are either impossible to find or rarely available. Moreover, it’s dreadfully inconvenient to have to plug in when you could be moving, all because your power-hungry smartphone has a battery that lasts what seems like minutes. Enter mobile power packs, such as the Choiix Power Fort battery pack. It’s a small black box which has two purposes: charge your small electronics and double as a flashlight. ThinkComputers has the review.

The Choiix Power Fort affords the simplicity of a power source without needing the outlet. The Choiix Power Fort is a pocket sized charger that is able to charge any USB device at the same rate as the standard wall plug would provide, which can be up to 3 times as quickly as it would charge through standard USB. Perfect for the traveler, the wall plug can be switched out to fit many international standards and even include a car charger. So even in the busiest and mobile times in our lives, we can be assured that no matter what life throws at us, our devices will still be at arms reach and ready for action.

The GTX 460 has only been on the scene for a few weeks and there are already a huge number of pre-overclocked cards being offered. One of these is the 1GB Superclocked model from EVGA which comes with an external exhaust system that is supposed to decrease overall case temperature. In this exclusive review we take a look at EVGA's new card.

The Cooler Master Storm Scout is a midsize-tower LAN/Gaming computer case with all of the associated bells and whistles. The “gaming case” identity seems to be doled out to just about any case with lights and fans nowadays, so let us try to evaluate what makes this case more suitable for these purposes.

Today for review I’ve got another Samsung phone called the Smiley and it’s meant to be a very user friendly and social centric phone. It’s a slider phone that does have a qwerty keyboard, along with a 1.3mp camera. The Smiley is meant to be a messaging device about all and that’s where it shines, the keyboard is rather small and cramped but with time you’ll become accustomed to it and you’ll be typing like a pro in no time flat. it is a basic phone though, so don’t except too much from it and you won’t be disappointed, but it’s very inexpensive so that a good thing.
