Saitek GH30 Vibration Headset Review
3d Xtreme :: Friday, January 04, 2008
“The Saitek GH30 Headset has been a great product for me. The one issue I would have with it is the vibration bass. I don’t feel as though the effect does much. I’ve owned a set of vibration bass headphones a few years back and the vibration was very noticeable. However, with the GH30s I don’t really notice a difference. The GH30s sound decent and the integrated microphone is great for gamers that use voice chat software. The GH30s would also come in very handy for anyone that uses voice recognition software. At $40 I feel the GH30s justify the price – most headsets with a microphone are pretty cheap and sound like garbage. These bridge that gap…”
Razer Mako 2.1 Advanced Desktop Audio Gaming Speakers Review
i4u :: Friday, January 04, 2008
“The Razer Mako speakers fire equally in all directions. This allows you to be able to enjoy the same rich sound quality in any position of the room. You can tell readily if you use your computer for watching movies with more than one person in the room. Everyone gets the same sound quality.”
Sapphire Radeon HD 3850 Ultimate Edition
Tweak Town :: Friday, January 04, 2008
“Moving onto the card itself, the front looks a bit weird with a large plate covering most of the front and three little pipes heading out the top and going around the back. To the right of the card you can also see a heatsink covering some of the hotter components on the card.
Since this is the first stock clocked HD 3850 we have been greeted with we thought we would check it out against the overclocked HD 3850 from GECUBE along with the stock clocked 8800GT for good measure.”

PNY XLR8 8800 GTS 512MB Graphics Card Review
i4u :: Thursday, January 03, 2008
“I was surprised by the performance of the stock clocked PNY XLR8 8800 GTS 512MB. It was very close to the performance of the overclocked XFX 8800 GTS 512MB XXX card I reviewed previously. The MSRP of the PNY XLR8 8800 GTS 512MB is $369.99 from PNY.”
NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS 512MB Review
Tech ARP :: Thursday, January 03, 2008
“We were most impressed with the performance and affordability of the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS 512MB that we feel it deserves nothing less than an Editor’s Choice Award. We hope this will encourage NVIDIA to offer more graphics cards of such caliber and value.”
XFX 8800GTS 512 MB Alpha Dog Review
Gamepyre :: Thursday, January 03, 2008
It seems that NVIDIA is bent on just taking over the entire VGA arena in both the high and low end market at the same time. This can be clearly seen with their recent release strategy, and ATI is an unloaded gun when it comes to sheer product awareness across the spectrum. XFX will most likely have a few different variations of this card available from standard clocked models and a few overclocked types as well. This card beats almost the rest of the NVIDIA lineup other than the Ultra and is a very solid gaming solution. Pricing however is much higher than the 256MB GT, which is around the $200.00 mark as this card sells for about $350.00 give or take a few bucks in either direction.
Home Theater 2008: Hi-Def Predictions
Digital Trends :: Thursday, January 03, 2008
“And Now, Predictions for 2008 Plasma and LCD will keep maturing but will not be replaced: These maturing technologies will continue to be bargains for consumers-that’s the cool thing about maturing technologies-even as they get less and less profitable for manufacturers. Successors like OLED are on the horizon, but Sony won’t bring OLED to the U.S. next year and Toshiba has no plans till 2010. Rumors that Samsung has a 40-inch OLED prototype will be confirmed or refuted at next month’s Consumer Electronics Show. SED, which might have made a big difference in 2007 had Canon and Toshiba been allowed to introduce it, died in a fusillade of litigation.”

Logitech G51 Speaker System Review
3d Xtreme :: Wednesday, January 02, 2008
“The Logitech G51 Speaker System is rated for 155 Watts so while it’s not the most powerful set of Speakers in the Logitech product line these can turn 2-channel sound into intense 5.1-channel audio. After using them, I’m not quite sure if they were even created with the PC in mind. Connecting these speakers to a game console or MP3 player seemed to really be the driving force behind this product…”
