The market is undoubtedly proliferated with an abundance of MP3 players. From the hard drive based players to flash players, there are literally hundreds of models you can pick from to suit your needs. We are all aware of the regular group of manufacturers that usually hold a large portion of the market share, but can the smaller companies deliver? Frontier Labs, a name not familiar to the majority of us, has introduced two new MP3 players that give listeners some storage flexibility at a competitive price tag. Is it worth it? Read on and find out?

MHW has a short review on the BenQ DW1620 DVDR, which is fast and offers a lot of good features.

Protection is key with today?s computers. Be it protection from the outside world or protection from the user himself, a secure computer can save a lot of frustration. The difficulty lies in the fact that with most software solutions available to the everyday user, there is always the chance of corruption since they rely on the fact that you have a functioning operating system. If the operating system is attacked or corrupted in any serious way then all the software security in the world will not do much good.

The Masstige offers a fully modular front panel design that provides you with 10 tool-free 5 ½? hard drive bays. This elegant enclosure is available in 2 colors, Black (which we are reviewing) and Silver. In an effort to differentiate themselves from other manufacturers, AeroCool have reversed the internal motherboard tray which means that the panel that contains the window is now located on the right hand side of the case instead of the more common left side.

OCIA.net takes a look at the Thermalright V-1 GPU Cooler in their latest review.

At first glance we can't help but compare the looks of the V-1 with other recent Thermalright offerings such as the XP-120 and XP-90. Aluminum construction using heatpipe technology is a design feature shared by all three. These are not new ideas for GPU coolers however, there are many other companies who manufacture similar products, and have for years. Can the V-1's functionality and performance live up to the Thermalright name? Being that this is their first venture into the VGA cooling market I'm sure expectations are high.

The latest GPU to come through Pureoverclock is the Gainward 3500 PCX 7800 GTX Golden Sample "Gainward kindly supplied two 7800GTX Golden Sample cards to allow us to test the performance in an SLI configuration. That's £800 worth of pixel pushing power staring back at ya! The Golden Sample moniker is only used for Gainward's top of the range boards which are factory clocked with higher core and memory speeds. Make no mistake, pair two of these up and you're sitting pretty for at least 2 years?.

HEXUS.net has a review of a NAS drive enclosure for SATA drive, which also features a web server, print server, photo gallery, external SATA port and multiple USB ports for backing up the contents of external USB drives at the push of a button. All in all a very feature rich device for the media freak.

The Chinese website HKEPC Hardware have thrown up their review of ATi's Xpress 200 CrossFire Intel Edition chipset.

MBReview has finished off a quick and dirty review of OCZ Tech's PC2-6400 Gold 2x512MB kit. This memory clocks in at 800MHz with a 1.9V core and 5-5-5-10 timings. At the low end of the frequency selection, it's best for low latency RAM, but when it comes to ramping up on frequency, these modules are stallions. If you're looking for some overclocking RAM for the Intel setup, give this review a look.

One of the better known companies in the hands free mobile technology segment is Jabra. With a solid network of retailers and an extensive range, they seem to have the market sewn up, but just how good are their products? HEXUS.net got three of them in to try out.

3Dvelocity reviews a USB Flash drive, yeah I know, they're ten-a-penny, but at least this is one where you can't lose the lid!

With a little shopping online you will be able to easily find this product for around US$175-$200 in your area. For what this player offers, I wouldn't deem that an unfair price at all. This product is much more than your average "turn it on and listen to music" MP3 player. In addition, for the same money you get an easy to use portable hard drive, voice recorder, MP3 encoder and a color photo viewer in one neat and tidy package.

Shuttle's SN26P takes 3D performance to total new heights. As the name suggests, this machine comes pre-fitted with 2 pieces of Geforce 6800 GT in SLi mode. Look here to know how Shuttle managed to squeeze these high end cards in such a small package!

Even if we were all expecting a reaction from ATI in response to the release of the GeForce 7800 GTX, NVIDIA made the next move with a new high end graphic card, the GeForce 7800 GT. The 7800 GT is based on a G70 chip (same as the 7800 GTX), but with one quad engine (4 pixel shader pipelines) and a vertex engine deactivated. How does the little sister of the GeForce 7800 GTX fare? The answer is in this test

The Pentium-M 780's clock speed of 2.26 GHz is the highest shipping clock speed of this product line yet, although it is not what most would consider a major jump forward. At 2.26 GHz, the chip is only clocked 6.2% higher compared to the previous high-end Pentium-M processor (770 at 2.13 GHz). Many enthusiasts have found that current Pentium-M processors can easily clock up to 2.5 GHz levels and higher with stock cooling solutions, so Intel seems to be playing it fairly safe at 2.26 GHz.
