Diablotek Gamer Series Cyclops ATX Mid Tower Case Review
Samsung has created an excellent tablet with the Galaxy Note 10.1, even if it's not exactly a looker. It is by far the fastest Android tablet that we've seen. With 2 GB RAM it has the most memory of any tablet around, and it lasts very long on a single battery charge. Just the Full HD screen is missing.

Eurocom Monster 1.0 11.6" Gaming Notebook Review
"Diablotek has sent us over another case for review, this one is called the Cyclops and it’s part of their gamer series.

With another Quakecon under my belt, I like to reflect on many of the sights and sounds I heard and experienced from throughout the BYOC area, exhibit hall, and main stage presentations.

The performance of the Barracuda 7200.14 is simply outstanding. It belongs to the fastest 7200rpm hard drives that are currently available. Not only that, the disk is also more affordable than the high-end 7200rpm 2TB drives from other brands.

ASUS tackles lackluster sound quality in note- and netbooks with the Xonar U3, a small USB audio card with a built-in headphone amplifier. There's convenience in the form of a portable optical output tucked into this small shell, but we put the U3 to the test to see how it compares to typical onboard audio solutions.

Asrock X79 Extreme11
Acer has created a very interesting Ultrabook with the Aspire S5, which they have clearly positioned above the existing Aspire S3. The retractable connectors are a fun gimmick, but the presence of a Thunderbolt connector is even more exciting. Another unique feature are the dual SSDs consisting of two 64 GB SSDs in RAID 0.

Those that require the ability to create a RAID array with up to eight 6Gb/s drives along with extreme multi-GPU setups will find the X79 Extreme11 actually fairs rather well in terms of value. For those that do not require these features the X79 Extreme11 is obviously overkill and Asrock’s less extreme motherboards will fit the bill better, and wi... [PCSTATS]
