The Superior Series C950 USB Flash drive from ADATA has an eye catching look, is provided with some optional useful software and can deliver good read/write performance compared with the other devices tested in the past.

Mafia II pits you as Vito Scaletta, set out to rule the streets of the fictional city "Empire Bay" throughout 1945 - 1957. As the latest game to feature NVIDIA's TWIMTBP branding, Mafia II features both 3D Vision and PhysX support. We're taking a look at the latter to see just what it is the game offers in the physics regard.

Along with the innovation in computer case design comes an increasing number of new fan designs. Manufacturers try to tune noise and performance with tweaks to rotational speed, blade design, and even grill and fan chassis alterations, giving the enthusiast a broad selection of fans with differing acoustic and airflow levels. SilverStone Technology has introduced a new version of the giant 180mm fans used in their "vertical motherboard" chassis series (the Raven RV01, Raven RV02, and Fortress FT02): the SilverStone SST-AP181 Air Penetrator fan. Benchmark Reviews compares the performance of this new fan to the stock fans in a Fortress FT02 case to see if the extra performance justifies their price.

"Overclocking the ASUS P6X58D-E was simple once I realized it didn't like the XMP profile of the Mushkin Redlines with the default BIOS v108. To keep the board happy I had to run the memory at 7-7-7-20, with an update to v303 it was able to run the XMP profile just fine. Manually setting the BCLK, CPU multiplier, memory speed, CPU/QPI/memory voltage, turning off Speed Step, and a few other minor settings were all that were needed and then some to get past 200 BCLK - the number needed to get 4GHz without the extra turbo multiplier on a i7 920."

Throughout this review I was trying to come up with things that I didn't like about the NZXT Vulcan case.  However, here we are at the end of the review and I still haven't been able to come up with anything I didn't like -  which speaks to how solid of a case the Vulcan is. . .



NZXT Vulcan mATX Case Review - BCCHardware

The DS210+ can manage up to 2x2TB drives, a phenomenal amount of
space for a small and medium business user or someone like me with a massive
home network, and I know there are many more like me out there! The
performance of the DS210+ speaks for itself, it's fast. We are at the point
where Gigabit technology will soon be the limitation on NAS units. The
DS210+ puts out 110MB/s read and close to 80MB/s write when the theoretical
maximum of Gigabit is only 125MB/s. How will Synology improve upon what they
have now is anyone's guess.

"The A50 that we are going to be looking at in this review uses a tower style design with three tick copper heatpipes connected to an aluminum finned array. It does come with a relatively smaller cooling area than the A70 and only one fan, so the A50 is more a replacement for a stock cooler than an all out overclocking machine. Still, the cooler uses a tried and true design to offer the best cooling possible for those on a budget."

Today we are unboxing the Altec Lansing BXR1220 Desktop Speakers.

The box admittedly is quite bland and boring, but it does give a clear product shot and quite a bit of information on the technology involved with the product. The contents is also printed on the box and the specifications, as well as the main features of the speakers.

Summer means heat and that means a harder period for your computer  since the heat increase will make your cooling have to work harder to maintain a stable temperature in the case. Enermax have released a 140mm fan which moves quite a bit of air at a very low noise level.
