Klipsch Promedia 5.1 THX Speaker System Review

Published by [PM] 1

FiringSquad has a new review online on the Klipsch Promedia 5.1 THX certified speaker system. From what you read they were more than satisfied with the setup. If you are on the watchtower for new high-end speakers check out this review. And start saving some cash. Klipsch did much more than just throw together an extra satellite from the ProMedia 4.1 series and call it a day. The satellites of the 5.1 are unique and now feature spring-clip speaker terminals instead of a mono mini-jack connection. This is what I wanted in my first review of the Klipsch?s a few years ago, so that you could replace the stock speaker wire with some more beefy speaker wire. Even if you don?t want to get into the high-end boutique wire, this setup gives you much more flexibility in terms of speaker placement for large rooms. Review @ FiringSquad

nVidia GeForce4 Ti4200 Review!

Published by Newsfactory 0

I had heard good things about the overclockability of the Ti4200's but nothing could prepare me for what was about to happen. I am used to my Radeon 8500 which is luck to get a 30 MHz boost before becoming unstable, so i wasn't expecting too much. I started off at 275/275 (550 DDR), and it breezed through those test so I upped the core to 300!

VIA P4PB 400-FL Motherboard Review

Published by Newsfactory 0



The Naked Review.com reckon they're the first to review VIA's New P4PB 400-FL motherboard and so do I.

As you probably know by now VIA is cranking out their own motherboards. The P4PB 400-FL is VIA's latest offering for the P4. It features 100/533 FSB, DDR 266/333, and DDR400 support, along with AGP 8X, USB 2.0, and 1394 (fire wire), and of course VIA's new P4X-400 chipset. Not too long ago VIA had put out a motherboard based on its P4X-333 chipset. This board didn't seem to hit the market and even hardware review sites had a hard time getting their hands on one. At this time, nobody has a P4X-400 chipset review out either...... until now.

SiS648 Performance Review

Published by Newsfactory 0

VR-Zone has taken a close look at the new SiS648 chipset that officially support AGP8X, DDR333, MuTIOL 1G and USB 2.0. Interestingly, SiS648 can also support DDR400 too that can further boost the performance and is paired up with the new SiS963 Southbridge. SiS648 was pit against the formidable Intel 850E w/ PC1066 RDRAM and other DDR333 chipsets like Intel 845G, VIA P4X333 and SiS645DX.

Published by Newsfactory 0

VR-Zone has a review up on the Gigabyte P4 Titan series with 8IEXP based on 845E chipset and 8IHXP based on 850E chipset. Gigabyte is the first motherboard manufacturer to equip ICH4 SouthBridge into their 8IHXP chipset so it can support USB 2.0 just like the 8IEXP. Both boards sport a blue PCB and are very well featured with USB 2.0 ports, Audio, LAN, RAID, Dual BIOS etc.

Round Them Cables

Published by Newsfactory 0

Just got word that ASElabs have posted a new article up about some rounded cables. Do they measure up to their flat counterparts?

These cables are from the Directron?s brand of rounded cables. As shown in the below photo I have a lime green FDD cable, a blue 24? EIDE cable, and a blue 18? EIDE cable. The shorter EIDE cable has markings to indicate it is ATA 33 - 133 compliant. I am about to find out if that is true or not.

VINIX VX-3340 Xabre 400 Review!

Published by Newsfactory 0

VR-Zone has done up a review on the VINIX VX-3340 card based on SiS Xabre 400. VINIX VX-3340 is a great looking card especially the new design with red PCB and a shiny silver cooler that can be found on GeForce4 Ti cards. VINIX has made an inexpensive card looks more classy and high end and it definitely looks more appealing for gamers to get.

The most unique feature is no doubt the Advanced Power System that provide additional 12V ATX connector on the card for more stable power that results in better overall system stability. This feature again can only be found on more high end and expensive cards like Canopus and the upcoming RADEON 9700.

Published by Newsfactory 0

Thin, thin, thin. Is this monitor the thinnest TFT out there? Yes. Does it still keep it's great visual quality, Yes. This monitor lacks nothing but a size increase. If Samsung could make a bigger model of this particular, I would be the first to grab it, to hold it, to squeeze it and call it George =).

Kingmax DDR-400 SDRAM Memory Review!

Published by Newsfactory 0

Just got word that Tweaktown have just posted their Kingmax DDR-400 SDRAM review. Here's a byte from their article:

Just recently there has been a great deal of talk about DDR-400 memory. Talk regarding supply for current and future chipsets including nVidia's nForce2 and the SiS 648. Kingmax were the first to bring DDR-333 memory to the market and again they have come out first with their DDR-400 SDRAM. There's been talk of poorly performing PC3200 memory from the Taiwanese company before now, Kingmax confirmed to us these were not modules with actual 5ns chips like the authentic DDR-400 memory from Kingmax which Cameron 'Sov' Johnson bench tested today.

iROCK 520 Digital MP3 Player & 300W FM Wireless Transmitter Review!

Published by Newsfactory 0

These two products have it all, quality, good construction, lots of features and one of the smallest MP3 players and FM transmitters on the market. I personally love these products and use them everyday whether I use the small MP3 player during a workout, or by using the transmitter in in car on the way home to listen to MP3's without constantly burning them onto a disc. If you have never tried a MP3 player, go get one. You won't know how you enjoyed a workout as much without it.

Matrox Parhelia Review

Digit-Life published the first more in-depth review of Matrox' 3D accelerator. Although I did not lay my fingers on a Parhelia personally I totally agree with Digit-Life's conclusion that the Parhelia is an innovative product that will surely find its niche in the market. Feature rich, excellent 2D quality and the horse power to play a game or two... Warp 2 Digit-Life
