ATI Radeon Mobility X1600 - First Look @ TrustedReviews
"As with ATI’s new desktop parts, the chip is built using TSMC 90nm micron process. This enables it to feature a hefty 157 million transistors, crammed into a small die size, which lessens cost. As with the desktop part, it sports 12 pixel pipelines, and five Vertex Pipes. The core clock is 470MHz, while the 128MB of memory also runs at 470MHz."
ATI vs NVIDIA vs XGI video quality comparison @ FiringSquad
“Today FiringSquad looks at the deinterlacing performance of the NVIDIA GeForce 6600, the ATI Radeon X800, and the XGI Volari 8300. Test-taking skills will tell you that FiringSquad wouldn't have bothered talking about the XGI Volari 8300 unless it had something special to offer...”
Mid-range money - 6600 DDR2 v X1300 at bit-tech
"MSI's Radeon X1300 Pro is not a bad video card by any stretch of the imagination, which is great for the consumer - competition drives prices down. It's amazing to think that you can pick up something that performs as well as a Radeon 9700 for less than ?80 these days."
AMD Dual-Core Challenge - Intel No Show! @ HWZ
"AMD ups the ante by inviting Intel to step foot into the Ritz-Carlton Millenia in Singapore on December 6th, 2005 for a final dual-core showdown of the year. AMD was there, CEO Dr. Hector Ruiz was there and www.hardwarezone.com was there. The only party missing was Intel."

LG GSA-4167B 16x Super-Multi DVD±RW/RAM @ CDRLabs
"The GSA-4167B performed very well when writing to DVD+R and DVD-R media at 16x. Thanks to its P-CAV writing method, it took only five and a half minutes to write an entire 4.7GB DVD. LG's new drive also did pretty well in our rewriting tests, turning in some impressive times with DVD-RW, DVD+RW and DVD-RAM media. Unfortunately, the GSA-4167B wasn't as fast as some of the other drives when writing to DVD+R DL and DVD-R DL media."
E-Power Silent Engine Tiger 650W @ InsaneTek
"E-Power may sound like a new company, but they have been in the power supply industry for a while. Their latest release is a beefy650W modular power supply. Is it worth your money?"
Logitech V20 Laptop USB Speakers Review @ Everything USB
"Though they don't look it, the Logitech V20 speakers are quite portable. Less than two pounds, they're extremely light weight, and can be toted quite easily when placed into the included hard-shell carrying case that's about the size of a 72 CD wallet. This makes it easy to toss them into a laptop bag without worrying about space constraints or whether or not they'll get damaged. I literally kicked the loaded case a good 15 feet through the air in a parking lot without the speakers suffering any damage and the case got off with only a few scuff marks, so durability isn't an issue here."
Legion Hardware - (Corsair XMS vs. Value Select)
"At the end of the day it's best to work out what your needs are. For general usage XMS memory is pretty much a waste of good memory, the same even applies to users that spend a fair bit of time gaming. For these tasks Value Select will do the job just as well and should save you a few dollars. Power users will appreciate what the Corsair XMS memory has to offer them. When it comes to overclocking there is nothing better than memory guaranteed to hit seriously high frequencies."
LeadTek PX 7800GTX TDH @ Tech-Rank
"The LeadTek PX 7800GTX TDH stands at a price of $599.00. This price may be hard to swallow, but that price comes great gaming performance, over clocking, and incredible features."
GeForce 6800 GS Review @ Beyond3D
"The NV42 chip has a slightly different configuration from the NV40 chip that the rest of the 6800s use, in that NV40's designed configuration contains 16 pixel processing pipelines and 6 vertex shaders, whereas this contains 12 pipelines and 5 vertex shaders. The configuration of the chip does actually match the configuration of the 6800 (standard) graphics card configuration, which shipped with disabled pipelines, using otherwise redundant chips."
OCZ Technology EL PC3500 GX Gold Edition Dual Channel Memory Kit Review @ Tweaknews.net
"Today I will be reviewing a PC3500 low latency dual channel memory kit from OCZ which is claiming effortless DDR433 speeds while set at the lowest 2-5-2-2 memory latency timings. Let see if this memory does what it claims and whether we can push it further to get even more value for your dollar."
Eliminate Hum @ eCoustics
"Of all the annoyances that can afflict any audio/video home theater or even a simple stereo installation, the notorious "ground loop" may well be the most difficult and persistent one to track down and eliminate."
Corsair Twinx2048 4000 DDR500 Memory Review @ Ninjalane
"Secret weapons come in all shapes in sizes; some consist of throwing stars to the head while others are simpler more effective alternatives. In the case of the Corsair TwinX2048-4000 we get two times the normal memory, enhanced bandwidth for overclocking and no messy cuts that cause you to bleed profusely. In short the best of both worlds."
Transcend 40GB StoreJet 2.5 Portable HDD Review @ Bjorn3D
"Decided a couple of months back that I needed to find a good portable solution to backup data files for when traveling or rebuilding one of my many computer systems. After looking around, I found Transcend’s StoreJet 2.5. The StoreJet is actually an aluminum USB 2.0 case for 2.5' hard drives, but Transcend also offers it with a 40GB or 80GB HDD already installed. In this review, I’m going to be looking at the 40GB StoreJet."
Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 HDD – 9th generation emerges @ TweakTown
"The 7200.9 series has models with the following specifications, 40, 80, 120, 160, 200, 250, 300, 400 and 500GB models respectively. This is truly the first drive to support all the HDD requirements from base system all the way to high end storage capacity of the lechers like me out there. What makes this line up unique are the different specifications that accompany each drive."
HEXUS.reviews :: Gigabyte GA-G1975X motherboard
"Gigabyte has decided that overclocking should play a large part in the GA-G1975X's makeup, and a couple of plastic ducts are designed and implemented to cool the hot-running components in and around the CPU socket area."
Ipod Nano Review @ DH
“We’ve gone from large bulky vinyls, to the smaller more portable CDs, to the digital age and current dominant music format, MP3s. Combine all of the above, and carrying around your favorite music has never been easier. Unfortunately, with the amount of different music players available right now, making the correct choice is extremely tedious and difficult. Should you buy a Zen Micro from Creative? An iRiver player? Just step into a local electronics shop and you’ll see that there are so many choices the average user will most certainly get confused.”

Turtle Beach Montego DDL Sound Card Review @ Techgage
"We all have the desire to have the cleanest sound on our computers, but like everything else, there are far too many sound cards to choose from. Turtle Beach has been known for their high quality audio products, so we are taking a look at their top of the line Montego sound card. It looks good, but how does it perform for your audio junkie?"
