Apevia X-Telstar Steel Mid-tower Case Review @ OCIA.net

Comments: 0January 24th, 2008 by Kristofer

 

OCIA.net has posted their review of the Apevia X-Telstar Steel Mid-tower Case.  Below is a direct quote from the review:

“This will be my third Apevia/Aspire case. Besides the X-Dreamer II, which I used for the better part of a year, I had an X-Plorer that I used for at least a year, a long time for someone who gets as many cases as I do. So I am familiar with Apevia cases, and expect the X-Telstar to be a mid-priced, fairly well built and finished, pre-modded case with a few interesting features. Read on to see if it meets my expectations.“

Quote: Styx gaming mouse they say…. It was quite some time ago that I reviewed a mouse last, Razer, Logitech and Microsoft have been leading on that part of the market but today we might have an end to that! We recieved a sample of Speedlinks latest Styx gaming mouse with some nice features as DPI setting with a button and also a ergonimiclly designed shape on the mouse. Let’s have a closer look at this mouse and compared it vs some others we have looked in the past.

Sapphire’s Ultimate HD 3850 and Atomic HD 3870 @ HotHardware.com

Comments: 0January 24th, 2008 by Kristofer

We’ve just posted a new article at HotHardware in which we evaluate a pair of somewhat unique Radeons, the Sapphire Ultimate HD 3850 and Atomic HD 3870.  Unlike most reference 3850s, the Ultimate HD 3850 has a  512MB frame buffer and is outfitted with a passive heat-pipe cooling system for completely silent operation.  The Atomic HD 3870 differs from ATI’s reference design as well and features higher GPU and memory speeds, a fancy single-slot cooling solution that leverages Microloops’ Vapor-X technology, and it has one of the best bundles we have seen in quite  a while.  Come on by the site and check them out…

Logitech ChillStream Actively Cooled Gamepad Review @ Tweaknews.net

Comments: 0January 24th, 2008 by Kristofer

 

Article Name: Logitech ChillStream Actively Cooled Gamepad Review @ Tweaknews.net
Article Url: http://www.tweaknews.net/reviews/logitech_chillstream_gamepad_review/

Article Snippet:

“To say the least, this controller is a mixed bag of pros and cons with neither of them propping the product to be a winner or pushing it down to being an absolute failure. Sure this is a good ergonomic controller which should perform its gaming tasks with ease, but the main defining characteristic, the cooling, needs work.”

Foxconn P35AP-S Motherboard Revisited: New BIOS

“In our latest P35 motherboard round-up we had the Foxconn P35AP-S to
test. It featured both ddr2 and ddr3 memory compatibility, which
introduced a few unknown problems. We asked Foxconn if they planned to
fix the problem, not long afterwards we got a response.”
