AMD Athlon X2 3800+

Today we look at a new AMD Phenom based CPU. Introducing the Kuma based Athlon X2 7750 2.7GHz Black Edition processor. Introduction

It seems that AMD may finally be putting the K8 to bed, and we can only hope so, there really isn't a need for two architectures on the same platform

ASUS Eee Box B202 / B204 / B206

ASUS has expanded its Eee range of products with the new EeeBox. We take the time to see what we can do with it.

The EeeBox really does what it's supposed to and very well. It's a well priced machine that is compact, looks good and does general office work well, including email, MS Office and internet. You could watch some XVID movies and TV shows, but that's ...

Cooler Master UCP 700W - power supply - 700 Watt

Cooler Master recently extended their PSU lineup with the UCP series and Mike gets his hands on a 700W model to try out. Introduction

When it comes to power supplies in the middle range, there are a lot of choices. Of those, few are willing to give you the flexibility of a dual graphics setup. The Cooler Master UCP 700 does so and is even able to handle a system that it has no right ...

ASUS Terminator T2 Series

The latest card to fall in under the TOP line-up from ASUS is the HD 4870. We have a look at it today. Introduction

The HD 4870 continues to show its value time and time again and this time around is really no different. The good overclock on the core along with the slight memory overclock helps performance stay up against the stock clocked offering at all times ...

Coolermaster Hyper TX 2 CPU Cooler

Using our trusted T.E.C.C. testing methods, we compare Cooler Master's Hyper TX2 to all our previously tested coolers.

The Cooler Master Hyper TX2 did not have the best performance out of the three CM coolers we've taken a look at in recent times. In acoustic testing it was actually the worst of the three, but when looking at pure cooling power the TX2 did manage to ...

CeBIT : Cooler Master Cosmos

Today Mike gives Cooler Master's latest and greatest full tower enclosure a good going over, the COSMOS 1000.

After installing a system in the COSMOS I had no issues or problems. All of the features discussed simply worked as they were supposed to. All drives were securely installed and cable clutter was easily tucked away to establish maximum airflow ...

Shuttle XPC SG33G5

The SG33G5 Pro is nice but it's not revolutionary or anything like that. The bottom line is it's the same XPC from three years ago with a slightly different exterior design and a new motherboard installed. The biggest problem is working out where ...

Today we're having a look at one of Shuttle's new "Glamor" series XPCs, this one sporting the Intel G33 chipset.

Soyo KT600 Dragon Ultra

Don't be fooled, the Athlon XP processor is still going strong despite the release of the expensive and not yet mainstream Athlon 64 processor by AMD. Today we've got the Soyo KT600 Dragon Ultra Platinum motherboard on the test bed which is based on ...

b>, Fast, Stable, Good overclocking, Nice colour scheme, Additional SATA ports, Firewire, Gigabit LAN

b>, Placement of FDD and Power ports

This was in fact a total joy for us to test. Soyo, while not having as many varieties of motherboards like the big names, it sure doesn't need them with this first time hit

Shuttle SB 65G2

Put together one of Shuttle's latest XPC small form factor computers and a tuned Intel Springdale chipset and you have some serious performance from a little guy packing a big punch! Introduction

There are a few questions here that pop up: - Did we expect it to beat the MAX3 in any of the benchmarks? - Did we expect it to be so close to the MAX3? Firstly, we did not expect the XPC to beat the MAX3 in any benchmarks. The MAX3 from ABIT is ...
