Hello Technology News Community, I4U NEWS reviews the Kingston HyperX KHX14400D3K2/2GN DDR3-1800 RAM. Quote from the review: "Today we are checking out a 2GB DDR3 RAM kit from Kingston’s HyperX line. This RAM is a great lower cost kit that performs well and has overclocking headroom. When all the testing was finished the Kingston HyperX KHX14400D3K2/2GN kit performed well. It has some headroom left for overclocking and performs well at the programmed SPD settings. The RAM is also a bit cheaper than some other brands of enthusiast DDR3 on the market."

Hello Webmasters and News Posters, NEW CONTENT (Memory) - Patriot Viper DDR3-1866 2GB Memory Kit QUOTE: "Patriot has been one of the newer companies to come on board at TweakTown to supply us with their high performance memory for testing, and so far we have been pretty impressed with their line of high performance memory. Once again they have come on board to send us their new series of DDR3 modules. Today we have Patriot’s Viper Fin DDR3 2GB dual channel memory kit. The sticker on one side of each memory module contains info on the modules. The kit we received was rated for speeds of 1866MHz or 933MHz core speed with timings of 8-8-8-24 at a maximum voltage of 1.9v. The modules are all RoHS which means they are manufactured with lead free solder."

Hello Again, Futurelooks checks out a great budget GPU... Foxconn 9600GT-512NOC Video Card Review Sure the NVIDIA 9800 series of video cards are the current crème de la crème of gaming performance but what if you don’t have the scratch to afford such a beast? Well that’s where the NVIDIA 9600 series comes in. Foxconn sent us over their pre-overclocked 9600GT. As an overclocked card, it should give us a bit more kick than your standard garden variety card. Let’s check it out! Direct Link: http://www.futurelooks.com/foxconn-9600gt-512noc-video-card-review/ A post to your news would be most appreciated!

A news post would be great. OCC has published a new review on the Scythe Zipang 139MM CPU Cooler Here is a quote from the review: Quote: "Fortunately, the heat sink blew away most of my doubts about the product. The Zipang is shockingly well built and extremely solid. It feels like serious quality, not at all flimsy like many others in this price range. Again, the shear size of the fan speaks for itself; attached resolutely with fan clips. I ran my hand across the the six heat pipes, which connect to the main cooling fins, in not only one section, but two sections, distributed on the bottom and throughout the center (UPHC as dubbed by Scythe). In addition, the Zipang includes a thick sub-heatsink, attached to the main cooling plate directly. This reminds me of the famed, but obsolete Thermal Right XP-120, except on some serious steroids."

Good day, Neoseeker reviewed the Asus EAH350X2 today, and it turned out to be a fairly fantastic piece of hardware: http://www.neoseeker.com/Articles/Hardware/Reviews/asushd3850x2/ "The folks at Asus are never ones to shy away from a challenge -- this time around, they decided to take up the test of releasing something just a little bit different. A little something they like to call the EAH3850 X2." Any links are appreciated, Thanks, ___________________________ Kevin Spiess Editor, Neoseeker.com

Hardware Canucks is pleased to present our review of the IN-WIN B2 Stealth Bomber Mid-Tower Case. Quote: Prior to arriving on our doorstep, IN-WIN’s B2 Stealth Bomber Mid-Tower case was already facing the unenviable task of overcoming several pre-conceptions on what we could expect from this case. In the past, our experience with IN-WIN cases has been positive, but impressions of their product line had them pegged as relatively conservative when it came to both styling and price. Add to this a street price at around $50 more than we’d ever expected to see an IN-WIN case listed for and you can imagine the B2 had some heavy lifting to do in order to win us over.

Hi, We've just posted a new article on our website, Hardware Secrets. Title: Enermax PRO82+ 525 W Power Supply Review Link: http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/551 Category: Reviews Summary: We took an in-depth look on Enermax PRO82+ 525 W power supply, which the manufacturer claims to have 84% efficiency. Can it really deliver 525 W with 84% efficiency? We will see. Here is a snippet: "Enermax has recently released two high-efficiency power supply series, MODU82+ and PRO82+. The name implies that products from these two series have efficiency of at least 82%, but Enermax says they actually have efficiency of at least 84%. Both use the same internal project, with MODU82+ models using a modular cabling system. Today we are going to take an in-depth look on the 525 W model from the PRO82+ series (also known as EPR525AWT) and see if it can really deliver its labeled power and efficiency. Read on." A news post would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Gabriel Torres Editor-in-Chief Hardware Secrets http://www.hardwaresecrets.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Greetings, Overclockers Online has posted a new review. A news post would be greatly appreciated. Title: Diamond Viper HD 3650 1GB at Overclockers Online Link: http://www.overclockersonline.net/?page=articles&num=1732 Quote: Much like other 3650 cards, you get a pretty good performer packed with features for a low price. The inclusion of native HDMI-out is a big plus for anyone running a home theater PC setup, but others are not left out with VGA and DVI connections as well. Thanks for the post. Best regards, Jared _______________________________________________

Hello fellow editors! Tech ARP ( http://www.techarp.com/ <http://www.techarp.com/>'>http://www.techarp.com/> ) has just posted the NVIDIA GeForce To Quadro Soft-Mod Guide. Quote - The NVIDIA Quadro family of professional graphics cards are very, very expensive. But everyone knows that Quadro and GeForce graphics cards are virtually identical in hardware. Obviously, you cannot just use Quadro drivers with your GeForce graphics cards. However, there is an easy way to soft-mod (modify in software) an NVIDIA GeForce desktop graphics card into an NVIDIA Quadro professional graphics card. We will show you just how to do it in this guide. Here's a quote from the guide :- "It all revolves around the driver support for professional 3D applications like 3ds Max or Maya. Quadro drivers allow the Quadro to be used to accelerate the rendering operations of such professional 3D applications while GeForce drivers do not. This is the basis for the premium prices NVIDIA (and ATI) charge for their professional-grade graphics cards."

We have been following a brewing controversy over the PC version of Assassin's Creed and its support for AMD Radeon graphics cards with DirectX 10.1 for some time now, and we were perplexed by some of the issues involved. Fortunately, the tech lead for the Assassin's Creed development team was kind enough to answer our questions about the nature of the game's DX10.1 performance increases, what they mean for image quality, and what the future for DX10.1 support in the game might be. http://techreport.com/discussions.x/14707 Thanks, Scott __ Scott Wasson The Tech Report PC Hardware Explored http://techreport.com -- To unsubscribe from: TR-News, just follow this link:

Hello Everyone, A few months ago, ASUS jumped into the audio card market with both feet with the introduction of their Xonar product line. One of the first models to market was the premium Xonar D2 Ultra Fidelity 7.1 sound card. The D2 boasted a superb retail package with all of the cabling, software and extras one would need thrown in, along with a slick, eye-catching design, for around $180. Not only did the Xonar D2 Ultra Fidelity 7.1 deliver on all fronts, but it also proved to be solid competition for Creative, who still has somewhat of a stranglehold on add-in audio card market. To further infuse themselves into the audio card market though, ASUS didn't stop with the Xonar D2 Ultra Fidelity 7.1. They have since developed several other model to meet the needs of consumers of all budgets. Today, we take a look at ASUS' latest offering which targets the mainstream market, the more affordable Xonar DX PCI Express 7.1 Audio Card. Head on over to the site and check it out: Article URL: http://www.hothardware.com/Articles/ASUS_Xonar_DX_PCI_Express_71_Audio_Card/ Site: http://www.hothardware.com/ As always, a link in your news sections would be much appreciated!

Title: Thermaltake M9 Mid-Tower PC Case Review ( -at -) DragonSteelMods Review Link: http://www.dragonsteelmods.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=7478&Itemid=38 Review Snipit: "Today for review I've got the Thermaltake M9 ATX case, it's a mid-tower style case that is sort of a basic case but offers some nice features and looks good as well. Aesthetically the M9 is very pleasing with an almost solid black exterior, nice contour lines and an overall sense of style to it. When powered on the blue LEDs of the included fans make a nice contrast with the black and make for a very nice presentation, its also quiet and does a decent job of keeping your system cool."
