Links to Reviews for May 3-5

ECS A780GM-A Black Series Motherboard - “The 780G chipset is the most powerful integrated graphics chipset on the market today. ATI is soon to release the 790G chipset which will bring even more performance to the integrated graphics chipset market. Integrated graphics are great for the person wanting to build a inexpensive system as you only need the memory, hdds, case drives and you have a cool system that plays every game out there, with lowered resolution or setting but it still can play those games with the full visual fidelity that playing the games with a high-end card would do.”

Hiper Type R Mk-II 680W power supply - “One PSU that certainly will catch your attention as well is the one we’ll be testing for Hiper (High Performance group) today. It’s their beefy 680Watt Type RII 680 Watt PSU. A product that costs roughly 120-130 bucks.”

Audioengine W1 Wireless Audio Adapter - “Audioengine’s stellar A5 ‘bookshelf’ speakers knocked me flat with perfect sound. The fact that this company would trust invisible air tubes over good ol’ copper to not screw up their performance is a compelling sign that their new Audioengine W1 is dyed-in-the-wool wireless solution, but I’m hella skeptical. While I certainly don’t believe that Monster’s onto something with their oxygen-free copper and gold lies, I’m not positive that I won’t be able to tell the difference between wires and nothingness.”

DFI LANParty LT X48-T2R Motherboard - “X48 has certainly earned a name for itself now. While Intel has been at the back end of adapting new technologies that actually work (forget the Rambus incident), the X38/X48 chipsets are somewhat ahead of their time.”

Noctua NH-U12P CPU Heatsink with/ Additional Fan - “For those seeking powerful cooling that is also quiet Noctua may be the answer. We take a look at the large NH-U12P heatsink from Noctua and test this beast against the stock Intel cooler to show you its installation, cooling performance, and our observations.”
