Sony Cybershot DSC TX1 Digital Camera Review
Everything USB posted a review on Sony Cybershot DSC TX1 Digital Camera

Sony once again returns to the compact camera fray with an impossibly thin 10 megapixel slim digicam called the Cybershot DSC-TX1. Boasting the best techno-wizardry Sony has to offer, including a brand new EXMOR R back-illuminated CMOS image sensor, new touch-screen interface, and 720p HD video capability, the TX1 arrives well dressed to the party. With a new set of advanced automatic shooting functions and the novel Sweep Panorama feature requiring no manual stitching or software, the TX1 speaks to the tastes of the fashion-conscious and the demanding shutterbug alike. Read on to find out if Sony nails this one out of the park.

The Verdict:
A very refined all-around digicam that forever will change your opinion of what you can achieve with "set and forget" point and shoots. The iAUTO intelligent automatic shooting function really works well, and no other compact camera is as successful as the TX1 at snagging keeper pictures in all lighting conditions. Sony finally gets the touchscreen UI right, and throws in iPhone-like gestures for good measure. A beautiful addition to your daily life that's slim and light enough to go unnoticed in your back pocket or purse. Only poor battery life and occassionally odd color renditions keep the Sony DSC-TX1 from being a grand slam home run.

The Good:
+ Responsive touchscreen interface
+ Bright, sharp 3.0" widescreen LCD
+ Classic Sony T-series styling
+ Unbelievably thin and light
+ Good build quality
+ Very good intelligent auto mode
+ Amazing ability to avoid flash in iAUTO mode
+ 720p HD video

The Bad:
- A few cheap bits (zoom rocker switch)
- Poor battery life
- Oversaturated colors
- Heavy noise processing
- No HDMI interface or cable included in box
- Not that cheap

Thermaltake Armor A90 Review
techPowerUp posted a review on the Thermaltake Armor A90 case

The Thermaltake Armor A90 features some menacing looks, all black interior and plenty of *omph* for the next LAN party. We peak under its armor scales to see if the interior is worth protecting with such a cool look.

OCZ Vertex 2 120GB Solid State Drive Review
ThinkComputers.org posted a review on the OCZ Vertex 2 120GB Solid State Drive

A little over a week ago we had the opportunity to review our first SandForce-based solid state drive the Corsair Force Series F100. If you have been following solid state drives at all you know that many drive manufactures are dropping the controllers from Indilinx and going with these new SandForce controllers. The new SandForce controllers are very impressive and really push solid state drives to their limits. Today we will be taking a look at the OCZ Vertex 2 120GB Solid State Drive which is based off the SF-1200 controller. It is designed for maximum performance for the mainstream sector. It is available in capacities ranging from 50GB all the way up to 480GB, let’s take a look!

Viperlair posted a review on the HIS 5570 Silence 512MB

The 5570 is certainly one of the cards to be looking at from if you want a card that can truely do all the HD decoding and a little gaming at HD resolutions. The fact that the HIS HD 5570 Silence 512MB can do this in complete silence only adds to its appeal, especially for HTPC applications.

Cooler Master V6 GT Heatsink Review
Ninjalane has posted their review of the Cooler Master V6 GT.

This is the cooler we saw most at Computex and wasn't even released yet. Heatsinks are a normal part of any modern computer and are designed to keep your components cool enough to run. Given these devices are utilitarian in nature there is rarely consider what they should look like. Some are massive towers of heatpipe and radiator while others might be a simple chunk of metal with fins extruded from the surface. The key point to take away from this is that heatsinks rarely look, good.A news posting would be appreciated.

Cooler Master V6 GT Review
Neoseeker has a new review for the Cooler Master V6 GT heatsink

The newest product from this company is a very unique CPU cooler that utilizes 6 twin "V" heatpipes, and dual 120mm PWM fans. However, it is not the fans, or heatpipes that make it unique, but rather the method that was used to enhance the look of the cooler.

Cooler Master V6GT Review
OCC has published a review on the Cooler Master V6GT

To say the least, the Cooler Master V6GT is a fantastic heatsink. It outperformed all of the other comparison heatsinks in every test but one, and pulled even further ahead in the load tests. The large size of the V6GT is made up for by its heat capacity and these tests show it.

Crucial Ballistix Thermal Sensor Memory Kit Review

Ask any PC enthusiast and they'll tell you that system heat is a constant concern', said Crucial Ballistix senior product manager, Jeremy Mortenson. The new Crucial Ballistix kit comes with a pair of innovations in memory cooling. The first one is an improved heat spreader design compared to the old models.

At COMPUTEX 2010, GELID Solutions launched their latest GPU cooler called the ICY Vision. The GPU cooler is aimed directly at the latest graphics processors from ATI and NVidia. And, since the latest GPUs produce a lot of heat, we're anxious to give it a shot. We're going to put it on the world's hottest GPU (literally), NVidia's Fermi GTX480 to see how it performs and see if it's able to accomplish what NVidia's reference cooler can't.
