Radeon HD5830 DirectX-11 Gaming Performance :: Posted by THRASHER2

People are falling over backwards trying to get a fix on its which side of the fence the 5830 belongs: closer to the HD5770, or nearer to the HD5850.

Unitek USB 3.0 SATA HDD Docking Station :: Posted by THRASHER2
" Today for review I’ve got another product courtesy of our friends at Brando USB, it’s another USB 3.0 product but this one is a hard drive dock.
