Our heatsink tests are designed to look at cooling capacity at two different heat levels. The difference between the two determines how well a cooler can handle the different heat loads. The ThermalTake Silent 1156 did an excellent job in our tests by easily outperforming the stock 1156 cooler and proving it could handle a minor overclock up to 3.2Ghz.

Since 1981, Logitech has been making a name for themselves in the computer hardware scene. When you think of computer peripherals, you typically think of Logitech. This veteran company is naturally a top choice when deciding to purchase any type of input device, ranging from keyboards to webcams. As a worldwide leader in pointing devices, it's no surprise Logitech has learned to adapt to the current market and reinvent the mouse each time they release a new product. With the Logitech MX-620 cordless laser mouse, model 910-000240, the company doesn't disappoint. But how does it compare with the wide variety of mice that are already available? Benchmark Reviews tests the Logitech MX-620 in this article to answer that very question.

Good things come in small packages and the QNAP TS-259 Pro is exactly that. You shouldn't be fooled by the small footprint. Packed inside this small chassis is a very powerful dual core Intel Atom processor with 1GB of memory. The result is a powerful server capable of RAID 1 performance with little overhead loss or a lightning quick RAID 0 configuration. If you're strictly concerned about numbers, the TS-259 Pro will easily put up 100MB/s+!

"We recently received the Thermaltake V3 Black ATX Mid Tower PC Case to test. While it is not a gaming case or even an overclockers case, it is a case that you can use for an everyday computer that is also very cheap. Now, I have used many Thermaltake products so I expect a lot in sense of quality from them. This case has all black exterior and also all black interior--nothing fancy. So let's see how this budget case held up in our tests."

Most people should have heard about the ease of use that the Netflix streaming service provides. One of the major components of this ease of use would be the set top boxes that provide the service on TVs. Roku was the original and is still the best way to get streaming Netflix to your TV, right now.

The N2200 is an entry level dual bay NAS. It has a fairly long list of features without making it overly complex to configure, plus it comes at a low price. Since Thecus seems confident about the N2200 we took a closer look at it to see if this is justified.

We here at Benchmark Reviews are probably just like you, when we hear "digital communication" we think e-mail, Facebook, twitter, or maybe a discussion forum. But there is a form of digital communication that predates all of these: the facimile. There are times when you just have to send a fax. Financial, legal, and medical matters often require that a signed form or letter be sent via fax. OK, but what if you don't own a fax machine? It seems that fewer and fewer of us have fax machines these days, especially with the growth of e-mail and web-based fax services. But what if you don't have one of these either? Well, luckily for us, Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7 include a fax service. And Adobe Acrobat provides a perfect multiplatform application from which to fax. With Windows & an Acrobat PDF file, you can fax directly from your PC. We're not only going to show you how to use the Windows fax service, we're also going to review ! a simple USB fax modem hardware solution from Rosewill if your computer didn't come with one.

The term "3D" has been used quite a bit over the past couple of months, and as it stands today, there's a fair bit of content available to those with capable hardware. But on the mobile side of things, support is just beginning to creep in. The first available option was from ASUS, with its G51J 3D, and we're taking a look at it here.

“My original Lapinator review using my wife's 15" Dell laptop was published 2-22-2006. Four years ago!! I updated that review 2.5 years ago with the introduction of my new 17" laptop. Today I hope to inform some readers that this was not a flash in the pan. This product has become an integral part of my daily life. My wife and I both have a Lapinator Plus (w/Mousitizer) and use them daily. I recently introduced my 11 year old daughter, who just got her first laptop, to using the Lapinator.”
