Links to Reviews for March 26-28

Corsair VX450W Power Supply - “Corsair is a traditional memory manufacturer they gained a lot of respect in the industry with their power supplies – we reviewed HX620W and TX750W and they are terrific products. But how the entry-level series from Corsair, dubbed VX, performs? Today we will take the most inexpensive power supply from Corsair, VX450W, and completely disassemble it and see if it can really deliver its labeled power.”

ASUS M3A32-MVP Deluxe WiFi-AP motherboard - “As per most new chipsets these days, PCI Express 2.0 support is present and correct, with 790FX offering up to forty-two PCI Express lanes. Thirty-two of these lanes are reserved for graphics boards, with 790FX capable of supporting up to four electrical PCI Express slots for ATI’s latest quad-GPU CrossFireX technology if required – Naturally, with only 32 lanes set aside for such a configuration, each PCI Express 16x slot will only be granted eight lanes of bandwidth, although this should still be more than enough for the majority of operations…”

1TB Hard Drive Roundup - “Barriers are meant to be broken.  As capacities have increased and prices fallen, each company wants those bragging rights of having the “biggest,” or at least the fastest. We put three 1TB [TERA BITE] hard drives through the paces – Hitachi’s Deskstar 7K1000 and Seagate’s Barracuda 7200.11 (ST3100340AS) as well as their Barracuda ES.2 (ST31000340NS). Which one will come out on top?”
