| Quakecon 2008: Day 0 @ Virtual-Hideout
“It’s a full on production, dealing with this many people, but this is the 13th time for Quakecon, hopefully it’s their lucky number. Even with the regular staff, there is no way they could run the show without the public who volunteer for everything from security to “Crimp Nation”. Think of the thousands of network cables they are already slaving away building.”

| Thermalright TRUE Black 120 CPU Cooler Review @ Virtual-Hideout
“So, do you NEED this heatsink? Should you rush out, and snap up the first one available? As much as I'm thinking Thermalright would love us to say yes to that, the answer is really no. For standard cooling needs, a regular old Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme will do the job just fine, and if you throw in, what, a $3 set of fan clips, an $8 tube of thermal grease, and a $12 fan, you're still running a surplus. Is that the point? Hardly. What this product is, is one of the best looking heatsinks that you can get a hold of, not to mention one of the best performing. When people see it through your case's window, not only will it say "I chose Thermalright", but it will also say "I spent a little extra, to get the best". It's a little something like I imagine the Voodoo 5 6000 was back in its time. You spend a little more, you get a little more, but hey, you'll enjoy it a lot more.”

“Though setup was definitely not as painless as the last product, the performance, compatibility, and acceptable thermal performance of this unit makes it a winner in my book. While it’s not something I would claim essential – an item which could make your computing experience infinitely better, I am saying that this unit is a good one to keep in mind. Especially, if it’s on sale, and let’s face it – the inclusion of Avast! Anti-Virus Home edition is a nice touch, and should you ever drop this drive while it’s containing mission critical data, the coupon for $200 off recovery from Disk Doctors will more than make up for the cost of the unit. In short, this product easily wins EagleTech another Approved award.”

“In short, this inexpensive motherboard is fast, stable, and features a ton of opportunities for expansion. While the lack of firewire is indeed a disappointment, I believe that this can be taken as a non-issue for gamers. Considering the features present, the speeds attained, and the stability of the system overall during the testing procedures, I feel that this motherboard is a good buy if a user is looking to assemble a low cost, reliable gaming machine. It’s just a shame that this product doesn’t have what it takes to break free of just what it was meant to do, but given the fact that it costs just shy of $110 – or rather, is shockingly cheap, I would say this is a good candidate for the great value award!”

| Patriot Viper 4GB PC3-12800 (1600MHz) Memory Kit Review @ VH
“If you're spending your hard earned cash on the new DDR3 standard, then you expect nothing short of stable, dependable performance whether you're using a 32-bit or 64-bit system. The memory must be reliable if you just play games or if your system is a serious number crunching SETI beast. The Patriot Viper 4GB PC3-12800 Dual Channel Memory Kit thoroughly tested here offered nothing short of those expectations. The memory is fully backward compatible with your 1066 MHz and 1333 MHz Core 2 series Intel processors. The extra performance gained from the memory's timings at lower 6-6-6-18 setting should be a pleasant bonus which also equates to plenty of bandwidth.”

| ATEN CS1782 Dual DVI KVM(P) Switch Review @ Virtual-Hideout
Most KVM’s are still the older PS/2 and VGA style, a year ago there were less than a handful of DVI/USB KVM switches. Now most companies offer at least one, and some are adding more features. It has been a while since I last reviewed a KVM switch from Aten. At the time I reviewed the CS1762, I said it was a good KVM, but it was missing some features I required. I figured it would be the next generation that did what I needed.
Well that generation has come, it has taken a little more time than I thought, but on first blush, the CS1782 has everything I want in a KVM.

“Surprisingly, Kingston was a little conservative on the specs. The memory can operate freely at 8-8-8-24 timings as well as stock. This was achieved without any extra memory voltage. It's a nice extra bonus not in the specifications. Overclocking is somewhat limited which isn't surprising. The ICs are pretty much already well tuned and operating at what Kingston feels is optimal. Again, the memory in all its 1600 MHz splendor is going to be enough for power users. Also, if your current motherboard isn't quite up to the 1600 MHz FSB, you can still enjoy great performance at lower frequencies and timings.”

“Sure you have to buy a power supply, and I know they want to pass that off as a “feature” (lol, marketing people are funny), but at $60, I sure couldn’t find a nicer case for that price. It’s well laid out, sturdy and light, with a lot of extras you wouldn’t expect to find, even in cases much more expensive. I love how clean the case is, it doesn't try and hit you over the head with blue LED's or flimsy plastic parts that are hot glued on.”

OCZ Technology Announces Core Series SATA II 2.5" Solid State Drive
Sunnyvale, CA—July 1, 2008—OCZ Technology Group, Inc., a worldwide leader in innovative, ultra-high performance and high reliability memory and computer components, today unveiled the OCZ Core Series SATA II 2.5” Solid State Drives (SSDs). OCZ has gained momentum in this pioneering technology, which uses NAND flash instead of rotating platters as the storage medium, and is a high-performance, highly reliable and energy-efficient alternative to conventional hard disc drives.
“SSDs offer higher performance, reliability, and energy efficiency than conventional HDDs but the cost variance has limited adoption of vastly superior SSD technology, until now,” said Ryan Petersen, CEO of OCZ Technology. “It is our mission to deliver the highest performance products to consumers at reasonable prices, and with the release of the Core Series SSDs we have done exactly that.”
Core series SSD drives are available in capacities of 32GB, 64GB, and 128GB and deliver incredible 120-143MBs/ 80-93MBs read/write speeds and seek times of less than 0.35ms, making the Core series up to 10x as fast on a seek-time basis and up to 40% faster on a R/W basis that the best performing 2.5” HDDs on the market, all while consuming 50% less power. MSRPs at time of launch are USD $169, $259 and $479 for 32GB, 64GB and 128GB models respectively.

| Thermalright TRUE Black 120 CPU Cooler Review @ Virtual-Hideout
“So, do you NEED this heatsink? Should you rush out, and snap up the first one available? As much as I'm thinking Thermalright would love us to say yes to that, the answer is really no. For standard cooling needs, a regular old Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme will do the job just fine, and if you throw in, what, a $3 set of fan clips, an $8 tube of thermal grease, and a $12 fan, you're still running a surplus. Is that the point? Hardly. What this product is, is one of the best looking heatsinks that you can get a hold of, not to mention one of the best performing. When people see it through your case's window, not only will it say "I chose Thermalright", but it will also say "I spent a little extra, to get the best". It's a little something like I imagine the Voodoo 5 6000 was back in its time. You spend a little more, you get a little more, but hey, you'll enjoy it a lot more.”

“Though setup was definitely not as painless as the last product, the performance, compatibility, and acceptable thermal performance of this unit makes it a winner in my book. While it’s not something I would claim essential – an item which could make your computing experience infinitely better, I am saying that this unit is a good one to keep in mind. Especially, if it’s on sale, and let’s face it – the inclusion of Avast! Anti-Virus Home edition is a nice touch, and should you ever drop this drive while it’s containing mission critical data, the coupon for $200 off recovery from Disk Doctors will more than make up for the cost of the unit. In short, this product easily wins EagleTech another Approved award.”

“In short, this inexpensive motherboard is fast, stable, and features a ton of opportunities for expansion. While the lack of firewire is indeed a disappointment, I believe that this can be taken as a non-issue for gamers. Considering the features present, the speeds attained, and the stability of the system overall during the testing procedures, I feel that this motherboard is a good buy if a user is looking to assemble a low cost, reliable gaming machine. It’s just a shame that this product doesn’t have what it takes to break free of just what it was meant to do, but given the fact that it costs just shy of $110 – or rather, is shockingly cheap, I would say this is a good candidate for the great value award!”

“If you're spending your hard earned cash on the new DDR3 standard, then you expect nothing short of stable, dependable performance whether you're using a 32-bit or 64-bit system. The memory must be reliable if you just play games or if your system is a serious number crunching SETI beast. The Patriot Viper 4GB PC3-12800 Dual Channel Memory Kit thoroughly tested here offered nothing short of those expectations. The memory is fully backward compatible with your 1066 MHz and 1333 MHz Core 2 series Intel processors. The extra performance gained from the memory's timings at lower 6-6-6-18 setting should be a pleasant bonus which also equates to plenty of bandwidth.”

Most KVM’s are still the older PS/2 and VGA style, a year ago there were less than a handful of DVI/USB KVM switches. Now most companies offer at least one, and some are adding more features. It has been a while since I last reviewed a KVM switch from Aten. At the time I reviewed the CS1762, I said it was a good KVM, but it was missing some features I required. I figured it would be the next generation that did what I needed.
Well that generation has come, it has taken a little more time than I thought, but on first blush, the CS1782 has everything I want in a KVM.

“Surprisingly, Kingston was a little conservative on the specs. The memory can operate freely at 8-8-8-24 timings as well as stock. This was achieved without any extra memory voltage. It's a nice extra bonus not in the specifications. Overclocking is somewhat limited which isn't surprising. The ICs are pretty much already well tuned and operating at what Kingston feels is optimal. Again, the memory in all its 1600 MHz splendor is going to be enough for power users. Also, if your current motherboard isn't quite up to the 1600 MHz FSB, you can still enjoy great performance at lower frequencies and timings.”

| Antec Three Hundred Case Review @ Virtual-Hideout
“Sure you have to buy a power supply, and I know they want to pass that off as a “feature” (lol, marketing people are funny), but at $60, I sure couldn’t find a nicer case for that price. It’s well laid out, sturdy and light, with a lot of extras you wouldn’t expect to find, even in cases much more expensive. I love how clean the case is, it doesn't try and hit you over the head with blue LED's or flimsy plastic parts that are hot glued on.”

OCZ Technology Announces Core Series SATA II 2.5" Solid State Drive
Sunnyvale, CA—July 1, 2008—OCZ Technology Group, Inc., a worldwide leader in innovative, ultra-high performance and high reliability memory and computer components, today unveiled the OCZ Core Series SATA II 2.5” Solid State Drives (SSDs). OCZ has gained momentum in this pioneering technology, which uses NAND flash instead of rotating platters as the storage medium, and is a high-performance, highly reliable and energy-efficient alternative to conventional hard disc drives.
“SSDs offer higher performance, reliability, and energy efficiency than conventional HDDs but the cost variance has limited adoption of vastly superior SSD technology, until now,” said Ryan Petersen, CEO of OCZ Technology. “It is our mission to deliver the highest performance products to consumers at reasonable prices, and with the release of the Core Series SSDs we have done exactly that.”
Core series SSD drives are available in capacities of 32GB, 64GB, and 128GB and deliver incredible 120-143MBs/ 80-93MBs read/write speeds and seek times of less than 0.35ms, making the Core series up to 10x as fast on a seek-time basis and up to 40% faster on a R/W basis that the best performing 2.5” HDDs on the market, all while consuming 50% less power. MSRPs at time of launch are USD $169, $259 and $479 for 32GB, 64GB and 128GB models respectively.
