Walton Chaintech APOGEE AstroDrive 16GB USB Flash Drive Review @ Madshrimps

Walton Chaintech, a company which manufactures lots of products like SSDs, Memory Modules, Memory Cards and Graphics Cards, does also produce Flash Drives.

The flash drive has very good performances right out of the box, but Walton Chaintech also included a special utility on the drive to boost the performance even more.

Lian Li Armorsuit PC-P50WB Aluminum Gaming Case Review @ Tweaknews


"When presented with a chassis like Lian Li's PC-P50WB, it is very hard not to heap praise on it like a smitten middle school girl. There is, nevertheless, a hell of a lot to recommend this case. It looks good, has a fabulous feature set with many excellent tool-free elements and top shelf cooling."

ASUS Radeon EAH5870 V2 Video Card @ Benchmark Reviews

The market for Radeon HD 5870 video cards has matured since the launch of this top-tier GPU in September of 2009. Development has continued on both the hardware side and the software side of the ATI family, and the ASUS EAH5870/2DIS/1GD5/V2 is one of several new 58xx series cards released by ATI AIB partners in the last few months that follow a new design pattern. The complexity of the 5870 reference design has given way to a more focused approach. A robust power supply, an efficient cooling package, and a simpler system for voltage control; all add up to a bigger bang for the buck, higher reliability and more headroom for overclocking. Several vendors have been trying to find the right recipe for maximizing the value proposition of the Radeon HD5870, and this time Benchmark Reviews is going to look very closely at the second generation Voltage Tweak EAH5870 model from ASUS.

[News] Griffin Elan Passport & Sleeve for iPad Review @ Virtual-Hideout

“Honestly both the Griffin Elan Passport for iPad and Elan Sleeve for iPad are excellent cases for your iPad. They will both protect and look great while doing it. The materials seem very durable and the craftsmanship is high quality. With the design exception of the power/sleep button being covered on the Elan Passport, both models have been flawless to work with. I can easily recommend both products. As a word to the savvy shopper out there, never pay MSRP as it is usually way too high, just as in this case. The MSRP for the Elan Passport for iPad is $49.99 from the Griffin site, however you can find it on Amazon.com for less than $30. Also the Elan Sleeve is also $49.99 from the Griffin site and just $28 on Amazon.com. Finding great deals online on Griffin products is something I've found consistently and I commend them on allowing it to happen that way. So many companies today price their products right out of the market. Griffin is smarter than that."

OCZ Agility 120GB SATA2 OCZSSD2-1AGT120G SSD Review


Who like to upgrade or build a new PC, will think about buying an SSD, at least during the first purchase consideration.
However in the price comparison one realizes that the price of a Solid State Drive is much higher than the price of a conventional Hard Disk Drive with the same capacity.
Nevertheless, the prices of SSDs are getting lower, and who like to get an overclocked PC much faster, will already find some interesting drives in the lower price segment.
This review is about the OCZ Agility 120GB SATA2 SSD.

Engrish: The Anti-Marketing @ Hardware Secrets

"As you know, nearly all computer components are manufactured overseas, mainly by companies in China and Taiwan. Even thought overall product quality has vastly improved in the past years, there is one area that still needs a lot of improvement: the text present on product boxes and in documentation, many times written in "Engrish," a form of the English language that only makes sense to whoever wrote it."
