General Electric X500 - what the hell does that describe?
     Wed, Aug 31 2011 | 12:00P | Peripherals | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
“We’ve reviewed a number of superzoom digital camera in the last few months, all with two things in common: They have long zoom lenses, and they’re all at least $300. General Electric takes a different tack with the 16-megapixel General Electric X500, packing a 15x zoom lens into a $150 package.”

Posted by: STAFF
Would you pay US$120 (RM 360) for a keyboard? Most people wouldn?t. Heck, they would think twice about paying more than US$30 (RM 90) for a keyboard! This review of the Ducky DK9008G2 mechanical keyboard may or may not change your mind, but we will show you why some people are willing to spend so much for a keyboard. Read on and find out!"

Logitech N600 Touch Lapdesk
     Thu, Aug 18 2011 | 4:15P | Peripherals | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
Logitech has once again extended and expanded their laptop Lapdesk accessory lineup. This time, instead of adding in speakers or cooling fans, or other miscellaneous features, their latest creation comes with a much more usable feature: a large 5" pullout touchpad. The N600 Lapdesk still is designed to protect you from the heat of your laptop when you are not at a desk by bringing the "desk" to you, but by including a touchpad you no longer need to attach a mouse and literally have a more all in one solution. This is the theory behind the Logitech N600 Lapdesk. Does the reality align with the theory or is it another product which needs to go back to the drawing board?

Thermaltake Commander MS-I USB 3.0 @ techPowerUp
     Fri, Aug 12 2011 | 4:00P | Peripherals | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
The Commander MS-I case is the most affordable of the new cases from Thermaltake. With the choice between a model with two USB 2.0 and one with a mix consisting of a single 2.0 and a single 3.0 connector at the same price point, it is interesting to see what difference such a feature makes in terms of alternatives and placement in the crowded sub 50 US Dollar range."

Tt eSPORTS MEKA G Unit Keyboard Review @ Vortez
     Fri, Aug 12 2011 | 3:40P | Peripherals | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
Enter the Tt eSPORTS MEKA G Unit. Cherry Black MX keys throughout, adjustable backlighting, audio/usb hubs, media keys and the ability to set 3 profiles up, each containing up to 20 Macro keys makes this keyboard perhaps the most feature packed mechanical keyboard we have tested to date. It combines all of the features we liked from each of our previous reviews and adds full macro capability into the mix. On paper at least, it should present itself to be the perfect solution to our gaming keyboard needs."

Ozone Strike Mechanical Gaming Keyboard
     Fri, Aug 12 2011 | 9:01A | Peripherals | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
In conclusion, the Cherry Blacks are just like how everyone explained they would feel, which is heavy. I felt like I was really working to use my keyboard some nights and after long hours of game play, I just felt tired and missing key presses. Over time I was able to get used to it and gain some extra finger strength for the switches. It`s a style of switch I`ve gotten to try for the first time."

Wesena ITX2 Mini-ITX SFF Chassis Review @MissingRemote
     Thu, Aug 11 2011 | 4:00P | Peripherals | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
The quest for the perfect and smallest home theater PC (HTPC) is one that has gained momentum over the last few years. We have seen the proliferation of these small form factor (SFF) Mini-ITX cases first hand in our reviews of the Habey EMC-600B and another offering from Wesena, the ITX7 chassis. The Wesena ITX2 is essentially the little brother of the ITX7, sharing many similarities to it but in an even smaller enclosure. As with any device there are compromises made when making something small even smaller, but do the benefits along with the lower cost make the ITX2 the best option?

Steelseries Shift MMO keyboard Review
     Wed, Aug 10 2011 | 12:01P | Peripherals | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
"After a long period of usage, keyboards become dirty. Sometimes they lose buttons. Sometimes this happens because you smack it at the wall in anger. Whatever reason you have for getting a new keyboard, you also need good reasons to buy a specific one. Maybe one that can be cleaned easily, maybe one that has better resistance to walls. Introducing, the Shift keyboard. It’s a multimedia chameleon board with removable keyset, aimed at hardcore gamers. Offering a skeleton backpplate which can be used with specialized keysets, which in turn can be programmed through the Steelseries’ Engine software. Let’s see if the Shift can convince you as well as us."

"The somewhat funky-smelling rubbery back side provides a glue-like substance to really stick to your desk. Even when picking up the edge or corner of the pad you cannot slide this thing across your desk like any other pad. You can’t even forcibly move the pad without picking up at least half the pad which means it isn’t going anywhere once you have it where you want it. I found this a very great property in fast moving games that require a lot of mouse movement."

SilverStone introduces industry's first PCIe cards with 19pin USB 3.
     Fri, Aug 05 2011 | 2:37P | Peripherals | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF

August 5, 2011 [New Taipei, Taiwan] SilverStone Technology, one of the premier companies in computer component design, announces the immediate worldwide availability of its latest USB 3.0 products, EC01, EC02, and EC03.

EC02 is a compact ExpressCard with USB 3.0 port designed to fit flush with ExpressCard slot equipped laptop.

www.pcstats.com

EC01 and EC03 in particular, are the first PCI Express cards on the market to feature the 19pin USB 3.0 header, a connection standard that has become an increasingly common fixture on motherboards released in 2011.  These products enable users to add USB 3.0 front ports without resorting to routing cables out of the chassis or replacing existing motherboards.

SilverStone Technology was also the first company to introduce retail computer chassis equipped with 19pin USB 3.0 connector when it released Milo ML03 HTPC chassis in December 2010.  It is looking to aggressively populate its product with this connection standard throughout 2011 and beyond.  Current users of popular SilverStone chassis such as RAVEN RV02 and Fortress FT02 may purchase cable kit (part number G11303260) to upgrade to USB 3.0 ports with connector that is compatible with 19pin USB 3.0 header.

eSPORTS MEKA Mechanical Gaming Keyboard Review
     Mon, Aug 01 2011 | 4:00P | Peripherals | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
"Today we're looking at the Tt eSPORTS MEKA Mechanical Gaming Keyboard. "Challenge is the game" is their motto and challenge, they do. Upon receiving the keyboard, I was highly impressed with the box art and style. It was a sign of things to come. The keyboard itself is quite heavy for its size - being that it's mechanical would help its weight. The MEKA comes with a braided cable which helps it not only in looks, but practicality - the cable is similar thickness to the Logitech G35 headset's braided cable (as an example). It's even described as "military grade". As for looks, it's a great looking matte-finish black color with a great red styling near the edges and the "Tt" logo also. Red LEDs come from the caps lock, scroll lock and number lock keys. On to the keys themselves, which are cherry black mechanical switch keys that enable "excellent gaming elastic capacity with life expectancy of up to 50 million keystrokes". The keys themselves feel similar to most mechanical keyboards, with a defining 'click' for each press. I type at close to or above 100 wpm and my typing speed dropped easily, by 30%."

The Enermax Aurora Lite keyboard has an ultra-slim design that makes it very space efficient. The simplicity in the design of this keyboard embraces style, quality and functionality. Although the keyboard itself is small and thin, it has two USB 2.0 connections embedded and a fullsize NumPad. It has a great-looking black brushed-aluminum exterior which helps it stand out among other keyboards.
