All in all the Arctic M551 is a well-rounded mouse. It is fast, smooth and accurate once you get your sensitivity set up. For $24.99 US you get a mouse that is just as good as a really expensive one. You can definitely shoot it up with the big dogs, and do it on a budget. . .

Verbatim has several portable hard drives on the market. Today, ASE Labs has the Verbatim Titan XS 320GB up for review. "

The short answer is yes, but not for money, and they aren't as worried as you think.

Legal Jailbreaking: Is Apple worried? @ TechwareLabs

" The core was overclocked nearly 6% over reference 5770 speeds, and only 2% on the memory side. Without effort, 970 MHz core and 1360 MHz memory was easy to attain using only ATI Overdrive setting clock rates and fan speed. The gains equate to 8% more speed on the core from factory clocks and 11% more on the memory - not bad at all. Temperatures peaked in the high seventies, but often were in the sixties, especially with direct fan control. The automated profile is targeted more for silence, although even with temperatures into the seventies, the video card is plenty safe to operate."

Benchmark Reviews was stunned to see NVIDIA's mid-range GeForce GTX 460 graphics solution dominate the price point and threaten high-performance products. Our tests have concluded that both the 768MB and 1GB version can offer great gaming performance, and outstanding overclock headroom. Combined into a SLI set, two stock GeForce GTX 460's compete with the Radeon HD 5870. In this article, Benchmark Reviews takes the highly overclocked ASUS ENGTX460 DirectCU TOP/2DI/1GD5 video card and compares it against a field of DirectX-11 graphics solutions. If you're after a new video card, this 1GB GeForce GTX 460 could be the best $230 ever spent.

In order to test a cable that connects your device to your computer, you need to hook up the device to your computer with the cable.  It sounds pretty simple and let me tell you... it is.  The cables work just find and fit quite snugly in my Lenovo T410 laptop. . .

Although small, it is targeted to users that want to build a powerful gaming PC, as it supports video cards with up to 12.2" (310 mm) in length. It is a hybrid case, with its body made of steel and its front panel made of aluminum. One of the highlights of this product is that it comes with a 600 W 80 Plus Bronze power supply, which we tested. Let's see if the Sugo SG07 is a good pick."

G.SKILL's Phoenix Pro 240 GB offers a huge amount of extremely fast solid-state storage that goes well beyond 'boot drive'. It also features the latest Sandforce SF-1222 controller in a tweaked version that allows up to 50,000 IOPS which is a solid step up from the 20k of the normal consumer version.

Most liquid cooling users are a very eclectic bunch. The system configurations can range from cooling just the CPU to everything in between, from GPU to even hard drives. While liquid cooling the CPU is by far the most popular, it’s GPUs like the ATI HD 59xx and NVidia GTX 4xx products that signal the need for more aggressive cooling. That’s where Coolit System’s latest Omni A.L.C. GPU cooler can help. We saw it at CES 2010 up close, and now we’re going to get personal with it.

Overall, I like the Viewsonic VA2323wm 23" widescreen LCD monitor very much. The picture quality is excellent and this refurbished model is in such great condition that it could pass for new. The 23" screen was an upgrade from my precious 20" monitor, and while it may sound silly to say, that extra 3" really does make a difference.

When Cooler Master released its first "CM Storm" gaming mouse last fall, we were impressed. For a company not known for mice to come out with such a competitive product was great, and helped pave the way for the future. That future is here, in the form of the Inferno. Can it surpass the quality set by the Sentinel Advance?

EVGA GTX 460 SuperClocked 1GB Video Card Review @ Ninjalane

"This is a mini ITX board based on the Nvidia ION chipset, and it is equipped with an Intel Atom 330 processor. Not only that but it is capable of full HD playback, and comes pre packaged with a wireless card. Another great little feature is the Home Theater Gate, which is like an OS before you even get to the OS."
