Gigabyte GTX 780 OC Windforce @ PureOverclock
You get USB 3.0 in the front and back, a solid build quality, good trays for the disks and even a slot for a USM hard disk. It's really a distinguishing factor, and if you need a business-oriented NAS that will only be used for back-ups, then the Seagate Business Storage 2-bay is an interesting option. USM disks can be used in the same manner as ta... [PCSTATS]

SLC flash cache
The Gigabyte GTX 780 OC Windforce sports a very aggressive factory overclock and a stunning cooler. We’ve been impressed in the past with Gigabyte Windforce graphics cards, and we suspect this new GTX 780 OC will be no different. It’s constructed in metal rather than cheaper plastic, comes with three fans, heatpipes, and a boatload of cooling pote... [PCSTATS]

Radeon HD 7950 HIS IceQ X2
Late last month, Nvidia launched the GeForce GTX 760, a new generation mid-range graphics card available for around 240 euros. You can find our in-depth review here. We already tested cards from MSI, EVGA and Inno3D for that review, but ASUS did not have a card for us at the time. By now we've had the opportunity to test an ASUS GeForce GTX 760, an... [PCSTATS]

Tahiti PRO GPU, which features 1792 shader processors. The reference Radeon
HD 7950 is clocked at a... [PCSTATS]

ASUS RAIDR Express 240GB PCI-Express SSD review
One thing we were quite pleased with was the overall ease and friendliness of this unit, with both setting up and changing configurations really only one or two clicks away and at most waiting one minute for it to reboot. The quick start guide was also an improvement over the Patriot version with a simple and easy to digest manual, for even the mos... [PCSTATS]

Affordable LX USB 3.0 Flash Drives
It's a known fact that the Serial ATA 600 bus has become the performance bottleneck of SSDs. And it's also known that we can't expect to see Serial ATA 1200 in the near future. We'll first get the SATA Express, where storage devices are basically connected to the much faster PCI-Express bus. You can read an in-depth article about it here. While we ... [PCSTATS]

ys EA6700 review: dual-core high-end ac router
"Luckily it seems like Razer is catching onto the fact that there is such a void in the market and have introduced the Razer Hammerhead along with the Hammerhead Pro – the only difference between the two is that the Hammerhead Pro comes with an inline microphone and play/pause/call/stop/etc. button while the Hammerhead standard doesn’t. Today thoug... [PCSTATS]

Spartan Assault (Win Phone 8, Win8 RT and Win8)
Linksys has decided to replace its 802.11n products as fast as possible with 802.11ac models, the new WiFi standard that's supposed to be ratified by the end of this year. The router manufacturer recently came with three new products at the same time, the EA6300, EA6400 and the EA6700. That last one is set to replace the EA6500, and looks pretty im... [PCSTATS]

ASUS GeForce GTX 650
Halo is one of those games that will be talked about for many years. Not only did it in many ways help make the first Xbox a success, it also was the game that at least for me proved that you can play a first person shooter (FPS) on a console with a controller. Bungie got it right and paved the way for more FPS on consoles. Ever since the first gam... [PCSTATS]
