Cooler Master CM Inferno Review
Saturday, 01 January 2011 17:36
The mouse is the bread and butter and ultimate tool
for anyone who plays games on the PC. Over the past dozen years there's been an
explosion in shapes and sizes of it and for all different utilities. It's
evolved quite nicely from a few buttons and a mouse ball to lasers, lights, and
more buttons than most people would ever know what to do with. That, however, is
not the case for gamers. Cooler Master has a new mouse out specifically built
for MMORPGs that are so popular, the Cooler Master Inferno.
Eyefinity Update: New Active DisplayPort to SL-DVI Adapter Thoroughly Tested

The mini active DisplayPort to DVI single link adapter is pictured above.
Way back in September of 2009 AMD flew me out to Oakland, and set me up on the USS Hornet for the unveiling of their Eyefinity multi-screen capable Radeon HD 5870. The demos were impressive, and I had a lot of fun playing Left 4 Dead on a set up that night. It was not until May of this year that my review of the technology was out. It was clear that it showed promise. Monitors were the main problem at this point. There were good games, and the drivers were maturing so little problems I had before were going away. It all boiled down to the monitors.
AMD Eyefinity CrossFire 6 Screen Review
Wednesday, 05 May 2010 15:42
Last September I was lucky enough to have AMD fly me out to California way to check out the unveiling of Eyefinity on the USS Hornet. Its a ship, not a boat. It was quite the tech demo with a variety of games on display and plenty of partners showing off wares. There was a bit of a look at the Frostbyte 2 engine that powers Battlefield Bad Company 2 now, a teaser of Aliens versus Predator, and some Crytek guys were on hand showing off their new engine. The main attraction was the Radeon HD 5870 Eyefinity Edition that packed 6 mini display port connectors and would single handedly push 6 monitors. Dirt 2 was the demo of choice although we also saw some Left 4 Dead action. Flash forward half a year and now many more games support Eyefinity, and at long last the Eyefinity Edition has arrived.
Albatron K8SLI Review
Monday, 18 July 2005 04:52
Motherboards.org has posted a review of the Albatron K8SLI. We reviewed this board here.In the end, it's truly hard to recommend this motherboard. The only special thing going for it is the good layout and small form factor, but considering the pricing of the board, we're left wondering where the rest of our bundle went. After all, a board this shallow would do well in the closed quarters of a HTPC case, where space is at a premium, and storage is at a placement war with capacitors. While we know the board's selling point is the small size, it's hobbled by the small bundle. Perhaps if the board had come with all of the necessary cabling, and a few layout tweaks it would be a prime recommendation to those with cramped cases or something small in mind.
