BIOS Magazine posted a review on Diskeeper 2007 Professional Premier Edition

Diskeeper 2007 Professional Premier Edition (71.97) represents a relatively major shift in the way you improve the performance and reliability of your computers. For over a decade Diskeeper has developed Windows system defragmentation technology, but Diskeeper 2007 takes a significant step forward. New (but experienced) users will find Diskeeper relatively easy to use, yet comprehensive in its capabilities, while experienced Diskeeper users will see major changes, yet still recognise familiar features, presented in a new, more streamlined way.

ASE Labs posted a review on the Crucial Ballistix 2GB PC2-5300 memory

As I am sure most of you know Crucial is a name that you can trust. I have personally used Crucial and Micron memory since I have built computers back when I was much younger than I currently am. It was not until recently that Crucial began to offer chips that had overclocking potential in the brand lines. This started with the new Ballistix line of RAM. In the past, Crucial had a stance that their RAM was for stability and not for overclocking, even though many people used it for both. Crucial RAM is rock solid, if you run it at the rated specs. Remember that overclocking is a variable thing; we shall see how Crucial stands up with their 2GB kit of PC2-5300.

XYZ Computing posted an Ideazon MERC Gaming Keyboard Review

Ideazon is best known for their Zboard- a keyboard that is made up of a base and removable keyset. A dedicated keyset is included for gaming and one comes for standard use- a novel idea, but something that take time to change and can get expensive if you start to buy specialty keysets. The MERC takes a standard keyboard and slaps a Fang Gamepad on the left side, but it can also be seen as the best qualities of the two Zboard keysets combined into one product.

With a retail price of under $40 and a street price closer to $30, the MERC is not going to have to offer a lot to impress consumers. That said, many people are going to resist any changes to something as familiar as a keyboard, so the price will not matter if the product does not stand up to expectations.

PC Stats posted an Albatron KI51PV-754 Mini-ITX Motherboard Review

Albatron takes Mini-ITX into a new direction with its KI51PV-754 motherboard, a high powered 64-bit compatible alternative based on a pair of very capable nVidia chipsets which boast an integrated Geforce 6-series videocard and MPEG-2/WMV9 High Definition video playback support. Outside of purely industrial single board computers (SBC), it was VIA that originally delivered the Mini-ITX formfactor in all its 170 x 170mm glory to mainstream computer geeks. The standard is quite a bit smaller than conventional ATX or BTX motherboards, but really the only features lost are expansion slots. With the high level of integration in most of todays graphics-enabled core logics, the loss of a few, or virtually every expansion slot is not that big a loss. Compact sizes also make the Mini-ITX motherboard a really versatile x86 platform.

Legit Reviews take a closer look at overclocking the AMD's Quad FX Platform

Although it is far from orthodox and practical I took the system outside and onto the patio for the rest of the time I spent overclocking it. St. Louis just had a huge ice storm and with about 3 inches of clear ice on the patio and plenty of snow I figured the nice below freezing temperatures would be the best way to cool AMD's Quad FX platform...

Hardware Pacers has posted a review on the Microsoft LifeCam NX-6000

Microsoft's LifeCam NX-6000 is a nice little webcam, but may not be all that a user may expect. The NX-6000 is a high resolution webcam with 2.0 mega pixel video, but the quality of the video is not all that it would seem in some of the resolution settings. At 640x480 and 800x600 the NX-6000 performs marvelously, but other resolution settings are not as nice. At higher resolution motion is blurry and distorted due to low frames per second, while at the low resolution settings the picture is out of focus.

The video quality settings are an issue, but the design of this camera is amazing. Very small and portable, with a retractable lens. Once the lens is out it has the ability to tilt up and down for the perfect angle. This camera is perfect for portability; it is rugged and the lens is protected. The camera clip on back is quite sturdy as well. In addition to all that, this camera comes bundled with a nifty carrying case.

I4U News reviews the Logitech G25 Racing Wheel

Once I opened the box, I got a whiff of the real leather that Logitech used to wrap the wheel. I was quite impressed by the quality of the materials Logitech used for the construction of the G25 Racing Wheel. The aromatic leather and brushed stainless steel set against the matte black plastic they used for the casing of the wheel is quite attractive.

3D Game Man posted a review on the Tagan TG900-U95 900W Power Supply

The Tagan TG900-U95 900W Power Supply performs very well, and that's to be expected from a 900W Power Supply. If that's not enough power, Tagan has a 1100 watt model. Who needs this kind of power? If you are a serious gamer with a quad video card setup and have lots of other hardware, you require a high wattage power supply to keep everything running. While this power supply has plenty of sleeved/shielded leads they are not modular. Watch the Video to find out more...

Pro-Clockers posted a review on the Zalman ZM600-HP Power Supply

Zalman's newest power supply is the ZM600-HP. The ZM600 is the first PSU in the HP lineup. The ZM600 boasts 600 watts of pure quiet power and is completely ATX 2.2 compliant. Those who think that the HP in the name stands for high powered or high performance (Hotpants? - Ed) would be awfully wrong. The HP stands for heat pipes, as the PSU uses these to aid in the cooling process. And the 120mm Zalman fan doesn't hurt either. Lets see if the ZM600-NP has what it takes.

The TechZone looks at the Laptop battery life

With all of the tremendous advances that are taking place in our world of internet and wireless existence, a person may never consider that the 'holy grail' is in the field of battery life.

Yep, it's true =96 it's in the works! The restricting problem is that little-considered power source we simply take for granted. The simple battery. It has been confounding for a century now.
