ASUS P5E3 Deluxe - fully-loaded and ready to fly
HEXUS.net posted a review on the ASUS P5E3 Deluxe

The race to produce the most feature-rich, fastest LGA775 chipset has lead to Intel releasing the X38. ASUS was only too happy to oblige with a retail example in the form of its fully-laden P5E3 Deluxe. HEXUS puts it through the mill and tells you whether it's worth buying or not..

HP Photosmart A826 Review
TrustedReviews have looked at the HP Photosmart A826

The Photosmart A826 is a lovely little machine for anybody wanting a standalone photo printer in their living room. It excels at producing photos cheaply and quickly with a minimum of fuss but even so, as £173, it's over priced.

Kodak EasyShare M873 Review
TrustedReviews have looked at the Kodak EasyShare M873

Kodak continues its move away from clunky plastic low-end cameras with this stylish but reasonably priced 8-megapixel, 3x zoom ultra-compact. However sometimes beauty is only skin deep, and it takes more than a pretty exterior to make a competitive camera.

ASUS P5K3 Deluxe WIFI AP Edition Review
Bjorn3D look at the ASUS P5K3 Deluxe WIFI AP Edition

I recently reviewed the ASUS P5K3 Premium motherboard. This is a motherboard where ASUS’s engineers have gone all out and integrated 2 GB of good DDR3 memory directly on the motherboard. You can read my review here. As you can see in that review it was a motherboard that did a lot of things right but got docked a few points because of the limitations you get when putting expensive memory directly on the motherboard.

The ASUS P5K3 Deluxe that I am reviewing today is basically the same motherboard, but without the integrated memory. My expectations of the motherboard were naturally high as it theoretically would be just as good as the Premium, but without the disadvantages of the integrated memory. Did it meet my expectations?

Antec Neopower 650W Blue Review
Hardwarecanucks posted a review of Antec's new Neopower 650W Blue power supply.

Considering its price of less than $140 the Neopower 650W Blue represents a phenomenal value for the performance it provided right across all of our tests. At lower loads, it is the most efficient power supply we have ever tested even though its efficiency decreased as load increased. The voltage regulation and ripple suppression are beyond reproach and really highlight how well the Neopower can handle nearly anything you can throw at it.

Logitech VX Nano Cordless Laptop Mouse Review
APH Networks has published a new review on the Logitech VX Nano Cordless Laptop Mouse

It's amazing how Logitech innovates. Every year between August and November, new Logitech products hit the market. While it is still 'just those keyboards and mice', Logitech implements an attractive force with each year's new products that attracts consumers with incredible power and temptation to just buy one and bring one home. The release of second generation "Revolution" series from Logitech includes the Logitech VX Nano -- sans the 'Revolution' tag, but still carries the trademark of the Revolution series. Its unique click/frictionless wheel is still to be found on this product, but what's so unique about this laptop mouse is not just about to be limited to the wheel that sets it apart -- what makes this mouse unique is the 'Nano' receiver, as depicted in the name. Logitech hopes to meet laptop users half-way when it comes to convenience -- it's not a Bluetooth mouse; but not every laptop has Bluetooth either -- the Nano RF receiver is designed to stay in your laptop's USB port without interfering with the laptop bag when packed inside. Isn't that amazing? Well, we'll tell you everything we think about this new Logitech mouse in our review today.

LapWorks Futura Desk Review
TechwareLabs has published a review of the LapWorks Futura Desk.

As most people with laptops already know, laptops can get extremely hot and become uncomfortable on your lap. Many people I know place a pillow or something between their lap and the laptop, this is a bad solution to the problem. A pillow conforms to bottom of the laptop, preventing the hot air to escape from the laptop as well as cool air from being taken in. This results in parts overheating, which reduces the lifespan of the device. LapWorks Inc., the market leader in ergonomic and heat reducing laptop desks, has recently released their Futura model. We have been given the pleasure of reviewing and testing this new release.

AeroCool AeroEngine-Plus ATX Case Review
Legit Reviews posted a review on the AeroCool AeroEngine-Plus ATX Case

The overall build was disappointing as I expected more from this case. The trademark structure of the “engine” was probably the cheapest of the overall case as it was loose and seemed like it could break. What really shocked me was the fact the included case fans aren’t even Aerocool fans, which is what a lot of people know Aerocool by.

Hiper Anubis Case Review
HardwareLogic posted Hiper Anubis Case Review

Today, we'll be taking a look at Hiper's very first foray into the Mid-ATX chassis industry. Boasting solid 6063 T5 aluminum alloy construction throughout the enclosure, and more features than you can shake a stick at, Hiper is putting its reputation on the line with the introduction of an ambitious product which carries an even more ambitious moniker: the Anubis. With the help of its solid core of engineers and designers, Hiper's Anubis has been designed from the ground up to cater to the enthusiast community. Will Hiper's new Mid-ATX enclosure serve to impress? Read on as HardwareLogic dives in to find out!

CoolerMaster CM Sphere Heatsink Review
Motherboards.org posted CoolerMaster CM Sphere Heatsink Review

These coolers are not for avant-garde overclocker's, nor were they designed with the overclocker in mind. I have read a few reviews on line where this product gets kicked in the proverbial nut sack for being crappy for overclocking, but why? It's not even made for that environment. The CM Sphere works much better that the stock Intel retail box heatsink, which works just fine for standard usage and also is not geared for overclocking. Under full load the copper version ran at just above 32C and the Jet black at 34C on the Intel and on the AMD system the copper ran at 38C and the Jet Black at 41C. The cooling fan is very silent and if noise is something you wish to avoid, the CM Sphere is something worthy of your consideration.

Asus PG221 22" Widescreen LCD Review
HotHardware takes a look at an LCD from Asus, the PG221

As its name suggests, the PG221 is a 22.1" monitor. It has a widescreen 16:10 aspect ratio, a built-in 1.3MP webcam and speakers - including a subwoofer - and a bevy of input options. The PG221 has a high contrast glare-type panel coating as well, for better saturation and color density. If you look at its individual features, the PG221 seems like a winner. But we dig deeper to see if the PG221's overall performance equals the sum of its parts. Head on over to the site and check it out...

Antec Sonata Designer 500 Case Review
3D Game Man posted a review on the Antec Sonata Designer 500 Case

The Antec Sonata Designer 500 Case is mostly steel, comes with a white paint finish and has a brushed aluminum front bezel. This front bezel is unique because it can be removed and replaced. There are five different color choices to choose from; Blue, Orange, Green, Pink and White. It even has an included Antec EarthWattsT 500 Watt power supply. Its 80+ certified so it's extremely efficient, has Active PFC and is quiet. This PSU is more than adequate for most computer builds.

Tagan CS-EL Diablo BM Case Review
3D Game Man posted a review on the Tagan CS-EL Diablo BM Case

Tagan has always proven their superiority to us and our users with their amazing power supply lineup. The quality and numbers pushed through them explain every dollar that they are worth! With the introduction of third party products for their chassis and enclosure lines, you would expect Tagan to except nothing but the best from these manufacturers. The Diablo case does just that. This style of case definitely gets top honors in an industry that has a habit of dropping the ball behind a pretty disguise. These Tagan cases live up to their assumptions.

Biostar TP35D2-A7 P35 Express DDR2 Motherboard Review
PC Stats posted Biostar TP35D2-A7 P35 Express Motherboard Review

Biostar's TP35D2-A7 motherboard is built with Intel's P35 Express and ICH9 chipsets, so with a Core 2 Duo or Core 2 Quad processor it becomes the backbone for a good WindowsXP or Vista PC. If you're not interested in frills you can get the performance of the P35 Express without blowing a lot of money. Yup, performance without spending a fortune.

Ultra m998 Mid-Tower Chassis Review
Velocity Reviews has a new review of the Ultra m998 Mid-Tower Chassis

The Ultra m998 Mid-Tower Chassis is what Ultra intended it to be for, a Ultimate Gaming Chassis, it doesn't have fancy LCD's or fan controllers because it's meant to be carted around for LAN's and gaming events, and because gamers like to install their own fan controllers and LCD's.

One thing that first caught my mind is the size of the chassis, its wider and longer then a standard ATX case. This makes its perfect for the gamers because of their need to use over sized power supplies, coolers and video cards.

The Orange Box - PC
HEXUS posted a review on the Orange Box for the PC

The Orange Box isn’t just Episode Two of Half Life 2. There’s much more in there than that. You get a whole load more in here than just that... but if you're a Half Life 2 fan already, is what's here worth the money, especially seeing as Half Life 2 and Episode One are included in the price...
