Gainward GeForce GTX 570 1280MB @ TweakTown
“Gainward offer us a great overclock out of the box when it comes to the GTX 570, but as we always try to do with the first version of a new model, we see just how far we can overclock it. At the moment we don’t have any voltage adjustment ability when it comes to the core, so our overall overclock might not be as strong as it could be when we see future versions of MSI Afterburner.”
NVIDIA GeForce GT 430 @ X-Bit Labs
“Nvidia still had one gap in its product line-up, though. It was in the below-$100 category which, according to Nvidia’s own data, accounts for about 19% of the total graphics card market. Nvidia didn’t have competitive solutions there because its GT215, GT216 and GT218-based cards traced its origin back to the old G80/G92 chips and didn’t support modern technologies like DirectX 11 and Protected Audio Path.”
HIS Radeon 6850 1GB @ eTeknix
“Since the onset of the computer, graphics have always been a major part of the user interraction. Early days saw graphics in the form of lights and numbers, but since the dawn of the GUI interface, the need for more and more power to produce high resolution and detailed images has been a constantly growing demand.”
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 @ Techgage
“To keep the mid to high-end GPU market interesting, NVIDIA has just launched its GeForce GTX 570, a replacement to the GTX 470. It’s priced a bit higher, at $349, but packs extra performance, improved power efficiency and lower temperatures. Is that enough to make it a winner in today’s tight market? We’re here to find that out.”
ASUS P8P67Pro First Look @ OCWorkbench
“This mainboard is powered by the INTEL P67 chipset for works with the LGA1155 socket CPUs. It has a memory capacity of up to 32GB with 4 DIMM slots. Dual Channel DDR3 memory can be used on board and it supporst up to DDR3-2400 (OC). There are 2 PCIe 2.0 x16 slots (single at x16 or Dual at x8) and 1 x PCIe 2.0 x4 (black in colour). There are 2 ther PCI express 2.0 x1 slots and 2 PCI slots.”
Gigabyte GA-H55N-USB3 @ FutureLooks
“The GIGABYTE H55N-USB3 sports the Ultra Durable 3 platform improvements necessary to support Dynamic Energy Saver 2 and secure an ErP certification to satisfy European Union regulations. It also fully supports the entire line of Intel LGA1156 processors, in particular the Core i3 and i5 with integrated graphics processors and of course Intel Turbo Tech.”
Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R (Rev. 2.0) @ X-Bit Labs
“This mainboard belongs to the value segment only formally. It barely differs from the top model in the lineup, almost all of its functions remained the same. Its functionality is even much more extensive than that of many mainboards from other manufacturers. The only feature that allows us to consider it a Value product is its price.”
ASUS Sabertooth X58 @ X-Bit Labs
“Inexpensive mainboards built with super-reliable components, furnished with 5-year warranty, equipped with advanced cooling system and featuring extensive functionality due to a number of additional onboard controllers simply do not exist. Except for one single product from Asus, which we are going to discuss in our today’s review.”
ASRock ION 3D 152B @ TweakTown
“Fast forward a little and we see the release of the ION 3D Series from ASRock. Don’t let looks deceive you; it looks pretty similar to all previous nettop systems from ASRock, but what is going on inside the attractive and small case is what is important. As the name implies, the ION 3D comes with 3D playback support. This is thanks to the inclusion of the NVIDIA GT218-ION graphics chip that is NVIDIA 3DTV Play capable.”
Phenom II X6 1100T Black Edition @ Hardware Secrets
“Phenom II X6 CPUs have a technology similar to Turbo Boost from Intel, dubbed Turbo Core. When the CPU “feels” that three or more cores are idle, it will increase the clock rate from the active cores. On the new Phenom II X6 1100T the clock is increased from 3.3 GHz (x16.5 multiplier) to 3.7 GHz (x18.5 multiplier).”
