Gigabyte H55N-USB3 - Big Features, Small Package
Techgage.com posted a review of Gigabyte's latest mini-ITX motherboard, the H55N-USB3.

Some might say that "bigger is better", but when it comes to today's PCs, that doesn't have to be the case. Rather, you can easily build a feature-rich and high-performance PC that can be entirely hidden from view. Mini-ITX motherboards exist to help with that, and where those are concerned, Gigabyte's H55N-USB3 is well-worth looking out for.

ASUS DRW-24B1ST SATA DVD-RW Drive Review
Tweaknews posted ASUS DRW-24B1ST SATA DVD-RW Drive Review

The DRW-24B1ST proved to be a solid performer during testing while still running quietly and efficiently. Burn quality is reliable too – I burned everything from movies to data to music with this drive and each and every disc turned out perfect. The price is very easy to take as well. For just over $20, you get the full retail package which includes Nero 8 Essentials along with Asus' E-Green and E-Hammer programs.

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 470 SOC (Super Overclock) review
The Guru of 3D posted a review on the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 470 SOC (Super Overclock)

We test and review the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 470 SOC edition. A really nice graphics card we can say right away. Gigabyte improved the PCB, applied 3-way fan cooling and overclocked the board. All facts combined created the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 470 SOC edition (Super Overclock).

Under SKU code GV-N470SO-13I this product features a 14 phase PWM design, OC Guru graphic card smart tuner and voltage read points. The card comes at default with a 700 MHz core clock, a Shader Clock 1400 MHz and a Memory Clock of 3348 MHz (effective).

Patriot Memory Viper II Sector 7 1800MHz 6GB DDR3 Kit Review
Bigbruin.com posted a review on the Patriot Memory Viper II Sector 7 1800MHz 6GB DDR3 Kit

If you are looking to overclock your system without the guess work that might usually accompany the process, something like the Patriot Memory Viper II Sector 7 1800MHz 6GB DDR3 kit would be a good choice. With an XMP profile included for 1800MHz operation, it takes just a few clicks in the BIOS in order to be up and running faster than a more typical kit.

Build Your Own Watercooling Reservoir for $10
OCModShop posted a guide about building your own Watercooling reservoir for $10

You can really use almost anything to be the reservoir however I have found that a DU-BRO fuel tank works really well. You can pick one up at your local hobby shop or here. I would suggest you get the 10oz or 12oz one, you can go bigger but there is really no need.

Your DU-BRO fuel tank is intended for use with a RC plane or car, so it comes with a lot of parts you do not need, however hang on to all of them because we are not going to have them go to waste. Unscrew the 1 screw in the top of it and shake everything out.

Kingston bangs in record sales while competitors falter - Interview with Bernd Dombrowsky
Kitguru posted an interview with Bernd Dombrowsky of Kingston

While slow and timid interviews are the stuff of weary insomniacs, there’s nothing KitGuru likes more than an experienced senior executive that’s prepared to tell it like it is. To help stir the spirits, Kingston kindly lent us Bernd Dombrowsky. And we are very greatful that they have. You’ll soon see what we mean.

Bernd Dombrowsky has been with Kingston for almost 15 years and his business card claims he is now busy directing sales across Europe, the Middle East and Africa. What we really like about this chap is his complete willingness to GITR (Get In The Ring) and tell it like it is. Expertise, honesty and a complete lack of fear? We like that. We like that a lot!
