Hardware Pacers has posted a review on the BTC 8193 Deluxe Office Keyboard. Here is a snippet:

The BTC 8193 corded keyboard is stylish and it is pleasant to the eye. Each time a key is pressed, scarcely any noise is released. It is exceptionally quiet and it has many features such as multimedia keys, unique F-keys and a set of Internet keys. The keyboard is extremely comfortable and contains a detachable palm rest. Most importantly the keyboard is very comfortable and each key is soft to the finger.

Opus Technologies recently made a move to the North Amercian market, mainly the United States with their new line of desktop cases and cooling products. The Taiwan-based manufacturer has been successful in the Asian and European markets, but in order to be successful here, Opus Technologies will have to go above and beyond a lot of strong competition.

A few weeks back, Intel introduced their latest Desktop Chipsets and motherboards based on them. With these new chipsets Intel are introducing numerous platform changes, signalling their intent to make the PC an even more high performance, hence versatile, platform than it is already. In this review Beyond3D are taking a look at Intel?s D925XCV Desktop board and the technologies the 925X chipset it?s based on brings.

Just got word from Dave Baumann over at Beyond3D that their review of ATi's Radeon X800 PCI express graphics card is out!

ATI?s X800 graphics processors, based on the R420 chip, were introduced recently and testing indicated that while its performance certainly wasn?t lacking, its feature-set didn?t differ significantly from the previous generation of R300 products. Indeed it?s become clear that ATI?s primary focus from this generation has been the transition from AGP to PCI Express, which begins with the introduction of Intel?s 915 and 925 platforms.

There is a new contender in the case market, Opus Technologies, Inc. The company offers various PC components such as power supply units, cooling fans, heatsinks, and computer cases. There are a variety of computer cases in the market already and they are all designed to suit one small group of users - the enthusiasts.

After the Computex show, which took place in Taiwan this year, many companies are releasing their new case models in the market. Thermaltake launched their Damier and Tsunami models while Cooler Master launched their Stacker model. The competition is rather fierce in the market and Opus Technologies will have to do something unique to catch everyone's attention in this heavily crowded market.

Here at Driverheaven we focus a lot of our review time on hardware like top of the range graphics cards, enthusiast cooling systems and the fastest processors money can buy. These are all hugely important parts of a gaming or multimedia system and the soundcard to be included is often overlooked (im as guilty as anyone). A decent soundcard can make a huge difference to how immersive your experience is when using your uber PC.

Toms Hardware Guide have thrown up their review of Nokia's N-Gage QD! Here's a snip,

Sales of 600,000 N-Gage game decks worldwide far exceeded Nokia's expectations. Seeking to further capitalize on its initial success, Nokia attempts to correct the first N-Gage's biggest faults while retaining its best features with the N-Gage QD.

Thermaltake has been producing heatsinks for a long time and while there aren't very many new things happening in the air cooling industry, sometimes we get surprised to see what's in the market. We have seen pretty much the same design from every manufacturer who produces heatsinks, but today we are in for a big surprise.

As the name implies, the heatsink utilizes heatpipes to better cool the processor. The Silent Tower heatsink is part of Thermaltake's DIY (Do-It-Yourself) products that the company had on display at this year's Computex. What sets this heatsink apart from the rest? How does it perform against its competitors? Read on and find out...

This time a German company send Mister DataFuse.net, that's me ;), a smashing new case. The case looks a bit like Macintosh its G4 boxes. But the real treat, and I will discuss this later, is the watercooling unit that fits like a charm on the German enclosure.

"Today I will be reviewing Altec Lansing's recently released VS4121 computer speaker system. With full three way sound, excellent aesthetics and a decent price tag, you might want to stick around if you are in the market for a new stereo speaker system."

The original Overture was a great case, but it was thermally challenged, high system temperatures meant that running a high end system in there would be almost impossible. Antec went back to the drawing board and came up with several improvements to the original idea. Madshrimps takes a closer look at this new revision and lets you know how it turned out.

Gamers Depot checks out Intel's 925p/915p Chipsets and P4 3.6GHz / 3.4GHz EEP Processors in their lastest review!

The 925p and 915p chipsets are nearly identical with the exception of Integrated Graphics. As you?ll see in our round of benchmarks, the performance delta between the two is negligible at best. The short of the story here, for both chipsets, is support for DDR2, PCI Express with x16 Graphics, Intel High Definition Audio, four Serial ATA ports, Intel?s Matrix RAID technology and native 802.11g Wireless Ethernet.

Creative has been able to retain certain leadership over the PC Audio market for the last decade or so, however present market conditions are tougher than ever, the market has been flooded with a variety of alternative products, making it more difficult to stand out over competition.

Overclockers Club has an exclusive review of Razer's new aluminum eXactMat mouse surface. 'We all know Razer for their old famous Boomslang mouse, their newer Boomer mice, and their newest Viper optical mouse but not for mouse surfaces. They decided to leap in to the mouse pad market and from the looks of their new Razer eXactMat mouse pad, it looks like they have made a truly unique mouse surface. Anodizing protects the aluminum base by making the surface much harder than natural aluminum. Aluminum oxide is grown out of the surface during anodizing and then becomes aluminum hydrate, that is extremely hard. The porous nature of the anodized layer allows the product to be dyed (in eXactMat black). The method used is Type II anodizing (room temperature) and gives an anodized layer of 0.1" (half which is grown into the surface and half out of the surface).' Read more
