Intel has finally refreshed their enthusiast SSD line-up by launching drives built on second generation SandForce controllers. Is it another SF-2281 clone? Not at all! Intel’s products come with exclusive firmware, which puts them one step above all other currently existing solid state drives.

Among SSDs from OCZ there is one very interesting series of products – Octane built on a unique Indilinx Everest controller. We haven’t yet reviewed drives like that therefore it was particularly interesting to see if Octane would become a worthy competitor to popular SSDs on SandForce and Marvell controllers. Especially since OCZ has recently released a new firmware update for their Octane series, which significantly improves their performance.

Without much hype and big promises AMD launched a graphics accelerator that not only took its place in the company’s product lineup, but also called in questions about the existence of three other graphics cards in the family. Our today’s review will unveil which graphics cards these are and why it happened in the first place.

It is possible to have it all: compact size, universality, superb efficiency and low noise levels? The new NZXT Havik 120 processor cooler will answer this question for you.

Hybrid AMD processors from A8, A6, A4 or E2 families suit perfectly for Mini-ITX computer systems. Let’s see what platforms are currently available from the leading mainboard makers in this field. Today we are going to check out ASRock A75M-ITX, ASUS F1A75-I Deluxe, Gigabyte A75N-USB3 and Zotac A75-ITX WiFi.

Today we are going to review a graphics accelerator with phenomenally efficient cooling system with very low noise, high performance and superb overclocking potential, which even some Radeon HD 7970 graphics cards could wish for.

This is the story of yet another company that decided to follow the footsteps of Antec, Corsair and CoolIt and give it a try with a new compact cooling system.

We are going to talk about features, cooling, level of noise, overclocking potential and finally performance of one of the first proprietary graphics cards based on AMD’s fastest GPU. We will also check how fast a CrossFireX configuration of two Radeon HD 7970 graphics cards will turn out in our tests.

Cloud technologies, a very popular topic these days, already started penetrating the SOHO data storage market. Buffalo Technology tried to combine a NAS system with Cloud. Let’s see what the result was.

The flagship mainboard from the microprocessor giant doesn’t strike you with unique design, specific features or functionality. However, it is phenomenally energy-efficient in its category, of course.

We will talk about the first router from Trendnet to support 450Mbps speeds on both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands at the same time. We will also look at 450Mbps Dual Band Wireless N HD Media Bridge that streams HD video to media center devices over an ultra-high performance 450Mbps wireless network.

Today we are going to compare the cooling efficiency of the best air-coolers out there and one mainstream liquid cooling solution in a system with Intel Core i7-3960X Extreme Edition inside.
