Building an affordable AM2 Gaming System
|
Currently there is a massive amount of competition in almost every corner of the computer industry. This has resulted in a wide range of products, as manufacturers attempt to capture as much market segment as they possibly can. Take the war between ATI and Nvidia, for example. Each company has been ...

Epson PictureMate 280 Photo Printer Review
|
Looking like a small cool-box, or perhaps an isotope container, and coloured a silver-grey, the PictureMate 280 has modern, functional styling. The lid, which inexplicably has a small, clear window in it, lifts to become the support for up to 20 sheets of 15 x 10cm photo paper. This loads at the bac...

Ubuntu, the imperfect Operating System alternative to Windows
|
Now I know I'm going to be chastised for saying this, so I might as well get it out in the open: Ubuntu needs to be more user-friendly. Although the operating system has a beautiful interface, and is quite easy to use -even for those who have never tried, or even seen Linux before-it is still really...

Dream Machine with Kentsfield, 8800GTX SLI and 680i SLI
|
Using the NVIDIA Forceware 96.97 drivers on the pair of XFX GeForce 8800 GTX's was an awesome experience and I can't wait for improved drivers come out to improve performance even more. The test system would run the opening scene from the first game test in 3DMark06 at over 112FPS, which is somethin...

Vizo Propeller Dual Fan Card Cooler PCL-201 Review
|
The Propeller Dual-Fan card is such a simple idea, I can't believe this is the first time I have seen something like this (ie. not a black dinky thing). The idea is that you simply insert the fan into an empty PCI slot in your computer/motherboard, placing it where you believe you need extra cooling...

Thermalright SI-128 NoiseBudget im Test
|
Traditionell konzipierte Luftkühler haben es zur Zeit sehr schwer, ihre ehemals überlegene Marktpräsenz zu verteidigen, die Tower-Kühler Konkurrenz behauptet bezüglich der reinen Kühlleistung aktuell mehr als nur eine nasenlänge Vorsprung und die wird nicht leicht zu übertrumpfen sein. So verwundert...

Polycom Communicator C100S USB Skype Phone Review
|
The Polycom Company is usually involved in tele or video conferencing products. But this product from Polycom is a step ahead. On first view it won't look like a phone but a gizmo. Actually it is a desktop speakerphone (and mic) which when connected to you to your PC via USB cable helps you in hands...

Why would I be reviewing such an old product that even I reviewed in the past? Simple, this is a new product from Logitech. It has the same name, but a refreshed design. Meet the black G7.

SteelSound 5Hv2 PC Gaming Headset Review
|
Before I opened the box I was hoping that SteelSound fixed everything and released a product that is worth the money of our readership and I am happy that I can say that time has come. It might have taken three tries, but it certainly wasn't three strike, you're out. Every conceivable problem with t...

Samsung SyncMaster 225BW 22" Widescreen TFT-LCD Monitor Review
|
Just a few days ago, I purchased a Samsung 225BW 22" widescreen LCD monitor. Did I buy it simply because it was Samsung? Of course not, I know better than to fall into love with brand names like that. I bought it because it was the most visually appealing. I'm not talking about the picture qual...

Benq FP241W 24" LCD Review
|
Fast-paced games such as FIFA 07 were no trouble for the monitor either. The acid test, however, is F.E.A.R. - which is full of shadows and incredibly dark scenes that are great for testing out this monitor's blacks. We hooked up Extraction Point, the new expansion, and found that the game was easil...
