ASRock 4Core1333-Viiv and Intel E4400 Performance at Madshrimps:

ASRock still employs 20-pin power connector while 24-pin is widely used. Additional 4-pin molex is next to the main. Nice to see the IDE connector is at a more reachable area next to the memory slots and 3 PCI expansion slots. Both north and south-bridge are passively cooled. This board only has one case fan header, be nice to have a couple more.

AMD vs. Intel neverending debate at PCStats:

Now I should say that I'm a hardware enthusiast at heart, so for me CPU performance matters the most. I stick with gear only as long as it keeps my PC at the front of the performance curve. After that, I drop it like a rock and move onto greener pastures, regardless if it's the same brand or not. After all, what's the point of brand loyalty? AMD and Intel don't love you back, no matter how much you might sing their praises. Put another way, it's not like AMD only sells to you, or Intel has a smiling shot of your mug on every pay stub as a testament to your past processor purchases now is it?

Tagan A+ CS-A380 at Bjorn3D:

As seen in the Black Pearl, Tagan takes a different approach to the normal inclusion of accessories. Rather then toss in a little cardboard box with parts, Tagan includes a nice little compartment to house all the screws and rails needed for installation. While this does take up two spots that would normally be used for hard drives there are still plenty of other spots and it is nice to keep your parts so close and not have to go looking all over for them.

PC Power & Cooling Silencer 750 Quad PSU at XtremeComputing:

The First thing that really impressed was the sheer amount of info available on the PSU, Also pleasing to see was that PC Power & Cooling are using the continuous Watt rating rather than the peak to quote the PSU’s power. Also you may have noticed only one single rather than a double or triple rail is fitted on this PSU, PC Power & Cooling firmly believe that a single 60amp rail is better than two or three that only offer fewer amps per rail. Take a look here to read what they have to say.

Kingston 2GB HyperX DDR3-1375 CL7 at Techgage:

Second, Kingston must've found a great batch of chips, because their kit not only had higher speeds, but higher speeds at lower voltages, 1.7v to be exact. Because of this, apples to apples, Kingston should have the overall advantage. That is yet to be seen though. For now, let's look at the modules themselves, before moving onto our testing methodology and ultimately, our testing results.

Curcial Ballistix Tracer DDR2-800 2GB Memory Kit at TheTechLounge:

Good RAM wouldn't be good if it didn't have rows of flashing lights under its heatspreader. Wait, that makes no sense. RAM is good when it, and, therefore, your computer, blazes. It should be about lower latencies and higher bandwidth, not Blinken- and ground lights. But are the two mutually exclusive? If we apply rice theory, spinners and lights may be added to any vehicle (import or domestic--although it's pretty hard to be impressed by a pimped-out Taurus) and imply, but are not evidence of, high performance. OK, so hear me out--there's a place where that metaphor comes back to fit, fer rills. Real racecars don't have lights and junk. That's heavy. Can high-performance RAM have lights? Will the extra stuff and/or heat weigh down the memory just as surely as would a tail fin lovingly crafted from Bondo?

Lexar JumpDrive Secure II 4GB at XSReviews:

The display is an interesting technology which has been designed by E-Ink. It relies on a thin space filled with clear gel/liquid, in this liquid are two types of particles. One is white which is attracted towards the positive wire, and the other is black which is connected to the negative wire. When a charge is passed, the particles move to their corresponding side which creates a monochrome image. This lasts even if there is no charge applied (i.e. the display is unpowered) which makes it perfect for the USB drive. Other reasons include that it can be read/seen from any angle and if pressed, it won’t deform unlike LCD’s.

Foxconn G33M motherboard - Intel GMA3100 at TweakTown:

With the Intel 3 series chipsets, things have changed; thanks to Vista new features are required to get a motherboard certified for Vista validation, and Intel is definitely one to strive for this. The G33 chipset is the latest instalment from Intel, and it’s designed for the Vista environment using its onboard graphics system, the GMA3100.

Leadtek WinFast PX8500 GT THD Extreme at Madshrimps:

Leadtek deviated from the NVIDIA reference design with this VGA card, which stipulates DDR2 usage for the 8500 GT GPU, and not only did they up the memory bandwidth, they also gave the GPU a boost, default clocks for the GPU 450Mhz, the WinFast runs at 522Mhz, DDR2 memory speed on the reference board is 400Mhz, with the DDR3 this is boosted up to 702Mhz!

Kingwin Mach 1 ABT-800MA1S at XSReviews:

The front of this PSU is the best bit. It's fully modular and uses a design very reminiscent of Hiper's TypeR setup, with screw-in cables that have certain pin configurations depending on their function.
