Kingwin Elite 3.5″ SATA to USB/eSATA Hard Drive Enclosure Review @ TestFreaks.com

September 10th, 2008 by Kristofer

Review Snipit:
“Today for review I’ve got the Elite 3.5″ SATA to USB/eSATA Hard Drive Enclosure from Kingwin. As the title suggests it’s an enclosure for a 3.5″ SATA hard drive that will allow you to use either a USB or an SATA interface to access your data. The Elite also includes a one-touch backup button as well for quick and easy backups of your important data. From my time with the Elite, I’ve found it very aesthetically pleasing, well made and easy to use. ”

Sapphire Radeon HD 4670 in Crossfire

September 10th, 2008 by Kristofer

NEW CONTENT (Visual) - Sapphire Radeon HD 4670 in Crossfire

QUOTE: “While I had heard about the HD 4670 for a while and that it was going to be a 9500 GT DDR3 killer, I as usual didn’t really process it all until just the other day when the card arrived. What we need to find out today is how the card performs, what it offers and also what happens when we put two of these $79 USD cards together. Before we get stuck into all that, though, let’s have a look at the package Sapphire has put together.

With two HD 4670 cards in hand, what we will do today is compare the card against the 9500 GT DDR3 which sits in the same price bracket. Since we do have two that we will Crossfire, we will also throw the HD 4850 into the mix to see how two of these cards perform against it; just to give us an idea of what’s going on.”

ATI Radeon HD 4670 Mainstream GPU @ HotHardware.com

September 10th, 2008 by Kristofer

AMD is releasing a new salvo of mainstream graphics cards today that should fall in the sub-$80 price segment, dubbed the Radeon HD 4670. The GPU at the heart of the 4670 is based on the same RV770 architecture used on the Radeon HD 4800 series, sans a few stream processors, ROPs, and other assorted elements, but with what is essentially the same feature set as its more expensive counterparts.  We’ve got a couple of these new cards on hand and plan to show you what they’re capable of on the pages ahead.  After reading, you may be surprised by what 80 bucks can get you these days…

Universal Slim USB Car Charger

September 10th, 2008 by Kristofer

So I always seem to forget to charge my phone and thankfully I got a nice car charger from Boxwave, but it just recently died on me… I plugged my
phone
in and nothing, nothing at all…bummer to say the least…

Luckily our friends at USBFever just sent me the Universal Slim Car Charger for review, I guess USBFever saved the day for me with this excellent little product. It’s your basic USB car adapter, it’s small and it even has a replaceable fuse, and that’s about it, it works and works well…
