Sapphire Radeon HD 5850 Toxic @ Techgage

AMD's Radeon HD 5850 may not be the company's highest-end card, but it still packs a wicked punch. Plus, when overclocked, and overclocked well, it can come close to the peformance of the top-end HD 5870. With the design of Sapphire's Toxic graphics card, hitting heights like this seem to be made all too simple.

ASUS P6X58D-Premium SATA6G Motherboard @ Benchmark Reviews

ASUS has been a longtime partner to Intel, and both companies have been made better because of their relationship. But when it comes to new technology, sometimes Intel takes a little too long to implement change while ASUS prefers to offer their faithful consumers the options right away. Intel's tick-tock plan doesn't coincide with the technical improvements made to areas outside of processor development, such as SuperSpeed USB-3.0 or Revision 3.x SATA 6.0-Gbps (aka SATA-III) controllers.

AMD Athlon II X4 635 & Phenom II X2 555 Black Edition @ Techgage

AMD last month launched five processor models, three Athlon II's and two Phenom II's, and we're taking a look at one of each. The Phenom II is a 3.20GHz dual-core, and a Black Edition dual-core at that, while the Athlon II is the ultra-affordable 2.9GHz quad-core. Let's see how both stack up to the rest of AMD's line-up, and the competition.

Sapphire HD 5450 512 MB GDDR3 @ techPowerUp

Sapphire's new HD 5450 seems to be the dream come true for all media PC users. It is passively cooled, which means no noise, can be turned into a single slot low-profile card and includes native HDMI and all the HD audio improvements of the Radeon HD 5000 Series. But is that enough to win over the enthusiasts?

Sapphire Radeon HD 5850 Toxic 1GB video card review @ Elite Bastards

While Sapphire's Radeon HD 5870 went for a rugged-looking cooling solution, the Radeon HD 5850 Toxic goes for something rather more shiny and colourful, with a dual-slot cooler that covers the entirety of the PCB's front, while also positioning itself to exhaust any hot air reasonably well from the rear of the system chassis.

Intel Core i5-661 Clarksdale Processor Review @ Benchmark Review

Intel continues filling out its processor lineup with the introduction of the 2010 Intel Core Processor Family, comprising new versions of Core i3, Core i5, and Core i7 processors. The new Core i3 and Core i5 processors use Intel's new "Westmere" architecture, which brings facets of Intel's "Nehalem" design to the lower-end desktop CPUs (code-named "Clarkdale") and mobile CPUs (code-named "Arrandale"). These are Intel's first CPUs to be built on a 32-nanometer process, and some models include another first for Intel: a graphics processing unit (GPU) included on-chip.

Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 13-inch Notebook Review @ ThinkComputers

When you think of ThinkPads you think of business notebooks and they really are. Ive reviewed quite a few ThinkPads over the past few years and the features are unrivaled when it comes to other notebooks. But the thing about the ThinkPads is that they dont appeal to many people, even small business users. Lenovo noticed this and came out with the ThinkPad Edge. The Edge is a very attractive 13-inch notebook that provides the right amount of business and consumer features. The Edge is also one of the first ThinkPads that has an AMD processor option.
