The 32x burner from Samsung that I will be reviewing today is a GREAT all around burner for everyone. It is full of great features like buffer underrun protection, fast cd writing speeds, fast loading and unloading and comes with everything to get you making your favorite music cd's and/or backing up your data.

TweakHound has a new review of Stomp's BackUp MyPC v. 4.81. This new version has WinXP support.

BackUp MyPC is an easy to use and effective backup utility. I was surprised that the new XP support worked so well. I like the fact that you can set a schedule to backup your stuff while you aren't around and on a regular basis. I also like the option of doing a full or differential backup.

Broadband Internet is becoming increasing popular in developed countries around the world that are sick of the turtle-like speeds that ageing 56k dialup Internet access provides. Nexland are one of the companies which offer their only broadband products. TweakTown checks out the ISB 800Turbo which features its own built-in 8 port hub and firewall to protect against intruders

Just got word from AC @Nvmax.com that their Creative Extigy review has been posted and is ready for your viewing pleasure. here's a snip.

The small plastic black box (8"w, 7.75"d, 1.75"h) has been designed to sit near flush on most tower cases but is also supplied with two brackets for upright mounting. It is rather lighter than expected. The front houses optical in and out sockets for data transmission to audio equipment such as Minidisk, a line in, a microphone in (wrong size should be a full size jack), headphones with balance control, master control, a quick CMSS button (this gives wrap around 5.1 sound from conventional two channels), a standby button and four LED's indicating power on, remote control receive, using digital and CMSS enabled

The P4T533 is the first 32 bit Rambus solution with 232 pin Rimm 4200 modules based on the Intel 850E chipset to hit the market. This review covers the layout, the performance of the board, onboard raid, and how to modify to overcome its inherent faults. This review includes the previously unknown method of modifying the voltage to the Rimms.

Just got word from David Solomon @Nvmax.com that he's posted their LITEON_CDRW40x12x48 Review! Here's a snip.

I was very happy with my old 8X CDRW. It was not the fastest burner in the world, but it has run well for many years. I paid a lot for it and really didn't want to invest that much money again just to burn CDs. Let's face it. We really do invest a lot of money into computer components when we buy them and the depreciation is terrible. I knew that once I started looking again, I wanted to get a good one with a company that supports it well. Many of my friends went out to get the top-of-the-line drives, so I headed over to try them out. They were all nice, but some were a little pricey

Just got word from YougCrow @Darkcrow.co.kr that he's posted his Single Head VS Triple Head! Parhelia-512 Surround Gaming review! If you don't not what Surround Gaming is check out this screenshot

You're The Gamer would like to introduce the new Ati Radeon 9000 Pro.This card features 64mb of 3.3ns memory to boost most of todays games its also fully supports Direct X 8.1 which is the standard for today & future games.

Just got word from Aron @ASElabs.com that he's just posted his exclusive review of Gyration Ultra Cordless Optical Mouse.



You must be thinking why I really like this mouse so much, or maybe not... First off, it is totally wireless. This mouse has no problem whatsoever and not having the damn wire is one of the greatest things since sliced bread. That's all well and good, but this is more than just an ordinary wireless mouse. This one has the very unique feature of being a handheld pointing device! No more do you need to be tied down to that desk anymore to browse the internet or navigate on your computer

t-break has reviewed the new Nomad MuVo MP3 player from Creative

----------

Creative has sure been in the MP3 player business for a long time. The original Nomad rocked with it's amazing design and a cool set of features and then the Nomad II further improved upon the functionalilty. Creative then moved on to introduce a completely new kind of MP3 player with the Jukebox that offered massive storage capacities while still keeping it portable. Today, we have their MuVo MP3 player which is the first of its kind that we've seen- a thumb drive MP3 player

Hell what a nice looking card !!. The review is a bit older but I think you haven´t seen it yet. Radiativenz.com have written a review about the Triplex Millennium Silver GeForce 4 Ti4600 grahpics card.
Here´s a bit:The card sports 128Mb of Samsung 2.8ns DDR, which equates in theory to a max speed of 714Mhz. The default speed of the GeForce 4 Ti4600 is 300 Core/650 Memory, so they are giving you a little overclocking headroom here (in theory anyway). It will be interesting to see just how fast we can get her purring later on.... Head over by using the above shown link!

Ever since the Tt Crystal ORB came out, it seems like what activity there was in the VGA and chipset heatsink market dried up. Vantec saw this and has stepped up to the plate with their IceBerq chipset coolers. There are two models, the CCB-A1A that is made of aluminum and the CCB-A1C that is solid copper. Aside from some trendy colors that we will be looking at in a minute, both these coolers are low profile to keep from blocking the use of a PCI slot.

BurnOutPC has written a review about the AL-555 L pre-modded aluminium case.
Here's a snip:
This case is pre-modified, and really really looks sweet. The windows are secured onto the case with screws, and they add a special "totally finished" effect to the case. There are not 1, not 2, but 3 windows on this case, normally nobody would add a window on the right door, but this case has it! Read the whole review over here.

YTG has put up a review of Thermaltake Volcano 7+. "The fan itself is 70x70x25 mm and pushes out 49.0 Cfms it also comes with a fan speed setting cable so you can choose the speed you want to run the fan at. The Kits also comes with some thermal compound...". Full review over @ YTG.

XtremeSystems.org has another review up by overclocking guru and staff member OPPAINTER, of Geil's latest ram offering, PC3500 DDR. OPP takes the Geil thru it's paces aboard an Abit IT-7 motherboard and achieves some very remarkable results. In fact...the bandwidth numbers are the highest ever seen so far for a DDR based system.

Our mate Dean Nottis from 3DXtreme has posted a couple of new reviews this week and I just wanted to pass along the info to you. Nexland Pro400 Internet Security Box Along with the speed and convenience of a broadband connection users are now connected to the internet constantly. This 'always connected' service leaves users suseptible to hackers wanting to gain access to their PCs. One of the most important tools broadband service users need to be using is a firewall. Samsung SW-240 CD-RW Drive The drive itself has a unique front panel than what I'm used to. Typically the front tray is flat and plain, Samsung has added some style to it by rounding it out and inserting a nice grey button for the eject function.

Tired of your mouse pad sliding WITH your mouse when you're in a serious game of Quake 3? Thinking of getting a new mouse because it isn't tracking well? Perhaps it's not the mouse's fault, it's the surface in which it''s doomed to be used on. Today Geek Extreme takes a look at the Icemat, a super slick mousing surface made of glass. Does it live up to the hype? Rancho*: Our review sample just arrived. Stay tuned for the Warp2Search Icemat review this weekend.

MrIcee from XtremeSystems.org has a review done by fellow staffer and overclocking guru OPPAINTER on the Swiftech MCW40-T Peltier/Waterblock for Nvidia based videocards.

This is an exciting new product that brings peltier based cooling to the masses that already use watercooling systems. It attaches via the Nvidia spec 4 holes around the GPU, and uses your existing PSU to power it's peltier via a molex connector.

Just got word that Icrontic.com have posted a review of Microsoft's new Windows Media Player 9 'Corona'. Here's a byte from their article:



Microsoft, have in the past two years or so, been attempting to make a surge in the Internet Media industry. With eyes focused directly on rivals RealNetworks and Apple, two companies that have long dominated the Internet Media world with their RealPlayer and Quicktime software, Microsoft was set to take the world by storm. Microsoft first launched their grand scheme with the release of Windows Media Player 7, a completely overhauled version of previous WMPs. It featured support for Microsoft's very own Windows Media Audio, along with various other audio and video formats such as the popular MP3 and AVI formats. Microsoft followed by opening a new media "portal", similar to the portal RealNetworks offered to its users. The portal was dubbed, "WindowsMedia.com". Today at Icrontic, we take a look at Microsoft's latest effort, the upcoming Windows Media Player 9, formerly codenamed "Corona". WMP9 is scheduled for release on Sept 4.
