Four-Way Gigabyte P45 Motherboard Round-Up@ HotHardware.com

August 16th, 2008 by Kristofer

We’re writing to let you all know that we have just posted a new article at HotHardware in which we evaluate the features and performance of four P45-based motherboards from Gigabyte.  We’ve got both their high-end and low-end DDR3 based P45 boards, along with their high-end and low-end DDR2 boards. This will provide us with a clear and concise overview of what type of performance and features you can expect at difference price points. We’ve got a lot of questions to answer, such as finding out the performance differences between DDR2 and DDR3 P45 platforms, how features like copper heatpipe cooling and twelve phase power help overclocking, and how power consumption differs between high-end, ultra-packed motherboards compared to trimmed down, minimalist boards.

On the low-end, we have Gigabyte’s EP45-DS3L for DDR2 based systems along with the EP45T-DS3R for DDR3 based systems. On the high-end, we have the much more exciting EP45-DQ6 platform for DDR2 based systems, and for the high-end DDR3 landscape, we have the crème de le crème of Gigabyte’s P45 lineup, the EP45T-Extreme.  Come on by the site and check them out…

Patriot Viper Series 4GB DDR3-1800 kit @ TechwareLabs

August 16th, 2008 by Kristofer

TechwareLabs has published a review on the Patriot Viper Series 4GB DDR3-1800 kit. Here’s a clip from the review:

Quote: Patriot lets the snakes loose with their Viper Series DDR3 kit rated at 1800MHz. We stocked up on anti-venom and let Jason Dumbaugh loose into the lab to wrestle some numbers from the kit. Does the Viper kit strike for a win or do we find that it lacks true fangs?

Nim’s Island DVD Review @ Ascully.com

“Nim’s Island is a fantastic tale about Nim (Abigail Breslin), a young girl who lives with her father on a remote island. Nim’s mother is no longer in the picture, and Nim’s father is a research scientist who has carted off his little girl to a secluded island where they enjoy life as it comes. They have a beautiful house that somehow has the internet and electricity, but other than that they are living the modern day Robinson Crusoe adventure..”

Transcend 2.5-Inch 32GB Solid State Drive Review @ OCIA.net

August 16th, 2008 by Kristofer

OCIA.net has posted their review of the Transcend 2.5-Inch 32GB Solid State Drive.  Below is a direct quote from the review:
One product category that has grown rapidly in popularity recently is the Solid State Drive or SSD. By using an array of flash memory chips grouped together in a standard-sized enclosure, the SSD offers several benefits over a traditional hard disk drive. For one, they have no moving parts, so they operate completely free of noise. They also produce very little heat, which should make them ideal for use in tight spaces where cooling is a concern, like laptops and other portables. Their greater tolerance for vibration and shock are also a boon for notebook use, as is their lighter weight.

In The Line Of Fire HD Movie Review

August 16th, 2008 by Kristofer

EW CONTENT (Digital Lounge) - In The Line Of Fire HD Movie Review

QUOTE: “In The Line Of Fire, produced in 1993 marked the last film that Clint Eastwood would star in, before getting behind the camera. The film was a critical and financial success, garnering three Oscar nominations and propelled Director Wolfgang Petersen into the big league. Of note is the early technical feat of computer graphics, compositing newly filmed footage into vintage material, which was done for a massive $4 million. The same effects could be done today on a home computer, with relatively basic software.

For a film getting on in years, it looks as good as would be expected. Skin tones are perfect and colours are rendered well. There is a fair amount of detail to the image, but it is somewhat inconsistent. Some shots come off looking a little murky and ill defined when compared to others. Thankfully, there is little in the way of film artifacts on the print, and it’s fairly stable with little telecine wobble.”

BlueAnt Supertooth 3 Bluetooth Hands Free Car Kit Review

August 16th, 2008 by Kristofer

U NEWS published a review of BlueAnt Supertooth 3 Bluetooth Hands Free Car Kit.

Quote from the review:
“Today I am back with another BlueAnt review — this time of the Supertooth 3 hands free kit. This device is made for hands free use, attaches to the visor of your car, and can be used at your desk.

Pairing the Supertooth 3 to my iPhone was a snap. As soon as you turn on the Supertooth 3 by pressing the green manual call answer button for one second, the device walks you through the pairing process. It even tells you the pairing code so you don’t have to dig through the owner’s manual. The device can pair to two phones at the same time and can store pairing information for up to eight devices.”

Diamond Radeon HD 4870 XOC Black Edition

August 16th, 2008 by Kristofer

NEW CONTENT (Visual) - Diamond Radeon HD 4870 XOC Black Edition

QUOTE: “The other day we looked at the Smooth Creations Asylum and inside was the new Diamond HD 4870 XOC Black Edition. This isn’t your normal overclocked HD 4870, though; if you have a look at the specifications on the thing, you will quickly discover that the card is packing some mega serious clock speeds.

So what we’ve done is pull the card out of the Smooth Creations rig and install it into our testbed to see how the card performs against some of our other favorites. Since this wasn’t a retail sample, we won’t be looking at the package today. What we will do is have a quick look around the card and then check out the clockspeeds before moving onto the testing phase.”
