I really was impressed with the performance and value of HIS's HD 5670 IceQ 512MB video card. HIS always has had a different approach on video cards that makes them both more attractive and good cooling with their IceQ line and the HD 5670 IceQ is no exception. With native HDMI and DVI it makes a compelling card for a HTPC or desktop alike.

"The TR4UT from Sans Digital is a strong contender in the external storage market. With four drive bays supporting up to 8TB of storage, both home and small business users alike can easily back up important files using USB or the newer, faster eSATA interface.

With this latest release, ATI is doubling back to fill some gaps in its wildly successful Radeon HD5xxx series of video cards. The previous release, the HD5450, was the logical terminus of their GPU bisecting act. In fact, they got a little carried away, and lopped off almost all the Stream Processors, in order to reduce the power requirements down to the lowest possible level. This time, the goal was to create the best performing low-profile HTPC card they could. The HD5570 is the first in a series of HD55xx video cards, and for now, it will probably be the top card in the group. Loaded up with the Redwood GPU from the HD5670, 1 GB of GDDR3 memory, and an all copper active GPU cooler, the HD5570 looks to be the King of the low-profile world, without the attendant King's ransom. Follow along with Benchmark Reviews as we see how it stacks up against its siblings.

"Everyone knows that you need to keep your computer cool at all times to get the most out of it. The most important of all is keeping the CPU coolest--especially if you overclocked it. You also want to keep the noise level to the minimum--nobody wants an airplane to take off when you turn the computer on."

If you're a mobile warrior, you may find yourself suddenly developing a case of RAM-envy. After all, 6GB, once considered an obscene amount of memory, is fast becoming typical thanks to Intel's Core i7 platform (the socket 1366 variety), and it's not unusual to see 12GB. Heck, some companies have even begun releasing 24GB kits. This begs the question, does your laptop's 4GB cut it anymore? We asked Crucial if they'd send us their 8GB DDR3-1066 SO-DIMM memory kit so we could answer this very question, and since they obliged, so will we.
