TrustedReviews have looked at the Evesham Solar 8600 GTS

As you may have guessed, the 8600 GTS in the Solar’s name refers to the graphics card which it uses and also gives you a clue as to its projected market – gamers on a budget. This assertion is backed up by the inclusion of an Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 (2.13GHz, 2MB cache, 1,066MHz FSB) CPU coupled with 2GB DDR2 RAM running at 667MHz - both midrange components. Altogether these components should be capable of playing any current games at 1,680 x 1,050 (the native resolution of the included monitor) and will be able to keep up with any games that come out within the next couple of years.

TrustedReviews have looked at the AG Neovo FotoVivo V10 7in Digital Photo
Frame

From a design point of view it’s effortlessly stylish while remaining perfectly functional in the same breath. The jet black fascia coupled with a pure white back is a classic combination, while a simple sloped design creates a stand enabling the photo frame to sit comfortably in landscape or portrait positions. The final touch is a set of backlit touch sensitive controls on the front on the frame, which are both attractive and very easy to use.

Bigbruin.com has posted a review on the A190A2-T08 19" TFT LCD Widescreen Monitor

Overall I am extremely impressed with the performance of the A190A2-T08 19" TFT LCD Widescreen Monitor and really only have two rather small things to complain about. The first complaint is the poor quality of the built in stereo speakers and the second complaint is with the lack of an adjustable support stand/base.

DragonSteelMods posted a review on the Evercool Cool Wheel HDD Cooler

Hard drives are on of the things that most people don't think about when they think of cooling their computer, but they need to be kept cool as well. Take it from me, I've had a couple die on me, and while I'm not sure if it was heat related or not, I can't help but wonder if it was and I had an active cooling solution on my drive I could have avoided a lot of hassles. So, today for review our friends at Evercool have sent us over their Cool Wheel hard drive cooler, the Cool Wheel is a bit different than other HDD coolers I have seen, this one features dual blowers instead of conventional fans like others out there today.

bit-tech.net posted a review on the Creative Gigaworks T20 speakers

Conventional wisdom suggests that 2.0 speakers are underpowered and lacking bass. Conventional wisdom crumbles in the face of Creative's awesome Gigaworks T20 speakers.

PC Stats posted Asus EN8800GTS/HTDP/320M Geforce 8800GTS Videocard Review

In this review PCSTATS tests the awesome Asus EN8800GTS/HTDP/320M PCI Express videocard. This Geforce 8800GTS-320 lives up to the hype, and comes with one of the best software packages available for its class. In the box is a full copy of Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter, which just happens to be one of the hottest shooter titles of 2006. The game looks particularly splendid when played over the Asus EN8800GTS/HTDP/320M videocard too. Take my advice, turn up the resolution to 1600x1200 and kick in AA and AF to get the full affect.

Both of these PC game titles are DirectX 10, which is what people have been waiting many months to come out.

Metku.net took a closer look at Foxconn's 8600 GTS graphics card

Nvidia's high-end cards have been out for already months, but only recently they launched their middle price range of the 8-series cards. The fastest of the new cards is 8600GTS, the second is 8600GT and then there's the 8500GT. The family also contains Geforce 8400 and 8300 cards, but those are only available for OEM manufacturers.

BurnOutPC.com has just posted their review on a couple of Nexus Real Silent Fans

These fans range from 8 to around 9.50 euros and are definitely silent enough. But if you start comparing these with the higher end Noctua fans, than they are simply no match for them. However, keep in mind that high cfm at lower decibels comes with a price tag. These Nexus fans are much cheaper than the Noctua fans we compared them with. These fans are silent at a reasonable price. So they are still a good choice if your on a tight budget.

XYZ Computing posted an article on the Dell/Ubuntu deal

There are many upsides that come along with the Dell/Ubuntu deal. These have been widely discussed, such as hardware compatibility, user support (a mixed blessing if you have to work with Dell), the ease of purchasing a custom Linux machine, and the competitive prices that Dell can offer. During an initial consideration is seems like there are no serious downsides to this, after all up to this point there have not been many places to buy a custom computer with desktop Linux pre-installed. Even so, we have very few details on how Dell with actually go about offering Ubuntu so there might be some surprises on the way. What could go wrong with Dell offering Ubuntu? While we have high hopes for it, there are always concerns.

Virtual-Hideout posted a review on the Titan Mini 2.1 Speakers

The Titan Mini 2.1 Speakers were easy to setup and use, but how much benefit do they provide? The quality was not that much above my old laptop's speakers and many newer laptops today are featuring better built-in speakers. The added burden of carrying around another set of speakers may offset the benefit, and if you use a USB port to power the speakers, you're not saving battery life either.
