CES 2012
Cars of CESEvery year we see an amazing amount of cars being shown off at CES. Cars range from stock cars from the different manufactures all the way to one off full carbon fiber builds. This year was no different. Here are a few of the cars that we saw while wondering around the LVCC.
Mushkin @ CES 2012
In between my meeting with Trendnet and Intel I took the tram from the Mirage over to TI to visit the guys from Mushkin. They invited me up to show off what they have planning for 2012. Little did I know how exciting they were! This is where I ended up finding the product I am most excited for from CES this year.
CyberPower @ CES 2012
Alex and I made a quick visit to the Cyberpower suite in between our other meetings. Eddie from Cyberpower showed us around and we saw a few really interesting things that they have to offer this year.
Asus @ CES 2012
I found the time to stop and check out the Asus suite at Trump Tower while running around Las Vegas. JJ from Asus was kind enough to take me around even though I’m fairly sure I interrupted his lunch time. He showed off their current lineup and some of the products we can look forward to in 2012.
Kingston @ CES 2012
It was only a few months ago that we visited Kingston so I wasn’t expecting to see very much new stuff from our visit to their suite this year. Surprisingly I was very wrong; they had a few nice displays and a few cool interesting products from different parts of their product lineup to show off.
Sapphire @CES 2012
We made it all the way out to the end of the strip at the MGM to visit our friends at Sapphire this year. Other than the obvious things like the HD 7970 that we recently covered and the HD 7950 that we couldn’t photograph we did get a look at a few upcoming products from Sapphire to be excited about in 2012.
Razer @ CES 2012
Our Razer visit this year was fairly focused. I had planned on having lunch with RazerGuy like we did last year but a problem in scheduling messed this up. So when we got in we took a tour of the booth but all I really wanted to do was get my hands on the Fiona tablet that everyone was talking about. Look all the way to the bottom for the video ;)
EVGA @CES 2012
This year was our first visit with EVGA at CES so I wasn't sure what to expect when heading into the Wynn. But being such a community oriented company I figured they had to be cool people and we all know their product line is always interesting.
Trendnet @ CES 2012
It wouldn’t be CES without dropping in to see what Trendnet has going on. Their support for our events has been amazing and their products rock solid. But the networking world is always moving. A quick run-through of their suite showed that.
Zotac @ CES 2012
Even though my schedule was packed full of meetings I did find the time to swing by both the Zotac suite and their booth on the showfloor. Between the two I had a chance to get a few sneak peeks at upcoming products and we also saw a few cool case mods that Zotac was showing off.
NZXT @ CES 2012NZXT has a very promising year ahead of them with a few new products coming out, some that I will note here. I cannot talk about all of them due to NDA but they will be worth the wait I can assure you.
A day in the life of a news editor/reviewer during CES 2012CES is one of the biggest electronic's shows held here in the states and also is a big show internationally. I would like to walk you through a day of covering something like this so that you the reader can see what hard work everyone goes through to set up something like this. CES was held this year from January 10th-13th, 2012 and registration for this is done about 6 months out before getting to the footwork of covering the floor.
Crucial brought me by to their meeting room for sit down discussion about some of their new products. From the entry level memory to the RAM for your next dream build they have it all. Also introduced was a RAM Cache SSD. Read on to see if these will tickle your fancy.Written By: Skyler

With Crucial being a big name in the memory market I was sure that they were going to go over their 2012 RAM lineup, I wasn't let down. Jeremy talked me through their memory lineup. Starting out with the Ballistix Sport Series which offers entry level price with entry level performance but still a great look on it, it’s the RAM for people that don’t know what a BIOS is. Moving up to the Ballistix Tactical Series gets you a more substantial heat spreader, tighter timings, a slick black PCB and an XMP Profile. This is the RAM for the gamer/system builder. Stepping up into their Ballistix Elite Series rewards you with a enormous heat spreader, XMP Profile, black PCB and Crucial’s M.O.D utility that makes sure your RAM is running top notch and keeping an eye on the temps.
Also introduced was the Crucial Adrenaline Solid State Cache Solution. Robert walked me through this demo. What I took away from this product was this is the solution for the people that need “Fat” HDD’s but want the SSD speeds. With this Cache solution this will alleviate problems with needing bigger SSD’s. Power down your system, plug in the SATA cable, SATA power cable, run the Crucial software and blamo, your ready to rock. Over time the software will figure out what programs are being used most and load those on the Cache Drive. As you use different programs more or less if will move those on or off. One of the nice features is if down the road you wanted to switch to just a full SSD experience then backup your data, power down the system, connect the drives, install windows to the SSD and now you have a full SSD experience. It gives you a bit more flexibility down the road, and I think everyone agrees with, more options the better.
