We all know someone at home or at the office who can never remember their passwords. These are the people who have stickers all over their monitor and desk in plain view for anyone to look at. Microsoft is hoping to eliminate this problem by offering a new form of password management technology; a fingerprint scanner built directly into the keyboard. While fingerprint technology is far from new, price and availability have so far prevented it from being used in the home or on every system in the office.

Today?s review is for all you technically inclined readers out there or for anyone who just seems to have a lot of bad luck when it comes to computers. I have in front of me the EZ Power Supply Tester from CaseBuy Tech. Simply put, this device is a must have for anyone who repairs, builds and/or troubleshoots computers on a regular basis.

Have you ever considered implementing wireless LAN? With some of the initial hiccups of wireless LAN seemingly out the way, now might be a good time to consider adding the freedom and flexible of wireless networking to your home or office. Today TweakTown take a look at some of the latest wireless equipment to come from Gigabyte with their Turbo G gear which offers data throughput up their with wired networks.

In the last ten years the mouse Technology did go a long way. First the bowl then the optical eye and finally the laser.

There are two leading companies in the mouse market. Microsoft,Logitech,Razer. Today I will compare the two hottest within the market.

The Madshrimps take a look at A.C.Ryan's solution for silencing and cooling your 3.5" hard drive by using large aluminum heatsinks and foam blocks.

Many of us are guilty of assuming all blank media is created equal, but there's more to a good blank than one that completes a burn. 3DVelocity run some of Traxdata's media through a few quality tests to see how it shapes up.

The Madshrimps take a closer look at Mushkin´s Enhanced DDR2 Memory rated to run at DDR667 speeds. Using a high end P4 system they push this 1GB kit as far as it can go

OCIA.net has posted a review of the Raidmax Samurai 908 Gaming Case! Here' a snip.

The case is tool-less. And, though there is no window in the case, Raidmax thoughtfully used black tool-less hardware instead of beige. The interior is sturdy steel, sprayed with a dull gray finish. All edges are rolled to keep you from cutting your fingers, even the back edge of the mobo tray.

Today Driverheaven are going to have a look at the MSI K8N Neo Nforce 3 250Gb chipset based motherboard. This is their mainstream Nforce 3 motherboard for AMD socket 754. The K8N Neo is not capable of running in Dual channel mode so if that is a must have feature then perhaps look towards the K8N Neo Ultra based on AMD's socket 939 technology.

nVidia has a long list of Add-In Board (AIB) partners who put together graphics cards based upon nVidia graphics technology. Most of the time, these cards stray very little from nVidia's reference design. As such, is the bundle and other features of the product which make one AIB partner stand out from another. Leadtek are certainly standing out with the cooling solution on their latest GeForce 6800 GT and Ultra cards. Hexus.net have a review, in which they find both cards to be great performers. However, it is the overclocking headroom on the GT model which really makes it shine.

Interested in a GeForce 6600 GT SLI setup but don't want to spend full retail for the motherboard and graphics cards? Gigabyte's 3D1 graphics card fuses two GeForce 6600 GT cards and 256MB of GDDR3 memory running at 560MHz onto one card! But that's not all, also included is a high-end nForce4 SLI motherboard with support for up to 8 Serial ATA hard drives and RAID 5, 802.11g WiFi capability, IEEE-1394b and 10 USB ports.

OCIA.net has posted a review of the Zalman Reserator 1.

Moving on to the CPU block, we can see that care was taken to ensure the longevity of the block by making sure that bare metal is not exposed to the elements. In fact this kit doesn?t require antifreeze to be added to protect the components. I would however, still recommend it to keep the algae to a minimum.

Today's computers have become more and more multimedia capable then they have in the past. Users can enjoy watching TV, DVD movies, and listening to CDs on their computers. And with the mass appeal of the MP3 and WMA formats and video equivalents DIVX, XVID, MPEG, etc, audio and video is easily available to anyone with an internet connection. Even today's games have seen a benefit for better audio with the introduction of Dolby, DTS, THX, and Surround Sound in games to make them even more immersive.

Today TweakTown take a close look at the HIS X700Pro IceQ Turbo including the impressive overclocking ability close to that of the Radeon X700XT which uses the new PCI Express interface and compare it against the older ATI Radeon X600XT VPU and see what is different and how it affects gaming performance in popular games such as HL2, Doom 3 and Far Cry.

You'd perhaps think that this parallel powered VFD was late into the market. And well, perhaps it is...But seeing that you can't buy too many printers these days that use the parallel port anymore, that leaves potential for all those free printer ports doesn't it? This parallel (2x16) character VFD from SilverStone, with its beveled, brushed aluminum front panel, in silver or black, is perhaps the final touch to finish off a mod. Continue on to see what I think...

OCIA.net has posted a review of the Thermalright SI-97 Heatsink.

Definitely nothing to block the airflow through the fins. The SI-97 is fairly large, but with its design, it will fit nearly all Athlon XP based motherboards. According to the Thermalright site, the only board at this time that has been determined not to accept the SI-97 is the Gigabyte GA-7N400 Pro2.

The Guys from Hardwareluxx.com reviewed a extreme SLI system with an Athlon FX-55 on Vapochill LS @ 3.17 GHz with GeForce 6800 Ultra SLI.

They achieve 10771 3DMark05 and 22948 3DMark03 Points.

PCI-Express if firmly upon us, Intel has seen to this and AMD will be joining the fray shortly. A few select individuals have been able to obtain high end samples of PCI-Express cards, however for most people these cards are simply priced out of their reach. This leaves the mainstream segment, and as this name suggests, the mainstream cards are targeted at the average consumer. So will "average" do for you? Let's find out!
