A news post would be great. OCC has published a new review on some Noctua NT-H1 Thermal Paste Here is a quote from the review: Quote: "After several attempts to get equal amounts of paste on the CPU, it was clear that two of the white pastes, Thermalright (Type 2) and Arctic Silver Ceramique, sank lower to the surface due to a lower viscosity, almost approaching a liquid state. Arctic Silver 5 and Noctua NT-H1 were both notably thicker, but the Arctic Silver 5 appeared wetter than the Noctua NT-H1. With Noctua's offering being the most viscous paste in this group, I wondered if it would be difficult to spread thinly on the bare dies of chipsets and unlidded CPUs."

Flash Drives are everywhere these days. We check out some elegantly styled units from Silicon Power, the Ultima 150 Flash Drive in 4GB and 16GB capacities. "From a size point, the drives are 59mm x 18mm x 9.2mm, so not much bigger than an AAA battery and lot smaller than an external 2.5" drive; and in the case of the 16GB, it almost matches the 2.5"'s 18GB for capacity. Provision for attaching a keyring or carrying strap is made on the one end, but no keyring or strap is provided with the drive. Also, the end cap is designed to pull off and be slipped onto the other end, the end you would attach a keyring or strap." http://www.viperlair.com/index.php/reviews/silicon-power-ultima-150-flash-drives.html

Greetings, Overclockers Online has posted a new review. A news post would be greatly appreciated. Title: ATEN CS1782: 2-Port USB 2.0 DVI KVMP Switch at Overclockers Online Link: http://www.overclockersonline.net/?page=articles&num=1851 Quote:KVMs don't usually get all the glamorous attention. However, the CS1782 deserves some of its own. With support for all of the latest technologies from dual-link DVI, 7.1 surround sound and USB 2.0, the CS1782 has you covered. Port switching is quick and easy with no lag and clean signals. Thanks for the post. Best regards, Jared _______________________________________________

So what of a product to compete with the GTX 280? Well that is why we are here today, in the last day or so ATI supplied us with an early sample of the R700 giving us the opportunity to see how it compares to cards which are already on the market. We should however state that ATI have placed some limitations on what we can and cannot say about the R700 at this time and therefore a full outline of the card and performance analysis will be published at a later date. http://www.driverheaven.net/reviews.php?reviewid=588 DriverHeaven and GamingHeaven News Mailer

The Intel Core 2 Extreme processor X9000 is the flagship mobile processor and we got a chance to take it for a test drive in the Dell XPS M1730 notebook. We took the time to overclock the 2.8GHz processor in the notebook and was able to get 3.4GHz out of this killer 45nm processor. If you are looking for the ultimate gaming notebook processor look no further! Quote: "The Dell XPS M1730 was easy to overclock and it was able to run the Intel Core 2 Extreme X9000 all the way up to 3.4GHz with full stability. With the system overclocked we were able to break 10,000 3DMarks in 3DMark 2006 and run faster than many of the desktops on the market today. Intel has done a great job with the Core 2 Extreme X9000 as they were able to deliver a fast part that has room for overclocking and efficient enough to drop power consumption levels..."

Hi Editors, Tech-Reviews.co.uk has just posted a news review online. A link or inclusion of the review in a news post would be much appreciated. Title: SteelSeries Ikari Gaming Mouse ( -at -) Tech-Reviews.co.uk Briefing: The mouse - a word of two meanings: one is a small rodent commonly eaten by cats; the other is on of the most important pieces of hardware that without your computer could not be controlled effectively. So naturally the second of the two meanings needs great consideration whether a hardcore gamer or a basic user. Steel Series is a fairly new company to us at Tech-Reviews who spe[censored]e in gaming peripherals. One of their latest products is the SteelSeries Ikari coming in both laser and optical formats. Can it live up to the importance of its job?

At Phoronix we have posted a new article. A link to this from your site's news section would be greatly appreciated. Title: Solaris Express Community Edition Build 93 ( -at -) Phoronix Direct Link: http://www.phoronix.com/vr.php?view=12594 Summary: "Two weeks back we had looked at Solaris Express Community Edition b91 to explore some of the recent OpenSolaris advancements. We weren't completely satisfied with SXCE as many of the features found in OpenSolaris 2008.05 were yet to be back-ported into Solaris Express Community. In addition, many of the packages shipping with this build were out-of-date. The good news is that SXCE Build 93 has been released this week and a number of these packages have been updated. We have screenshots in this article from SXCE Build 93 as well as a brief look at the major changes." Please feel free to contact us with any questions or comments you may
