Sapphire Radeon HD4850 Toxic

August 27 -- With the Radeon HD4800-series videocards only having been released a few short months ago, Sapphire has already released a factory-overclocked version of the HD4850. Under Sapphire's Toxic branding, the new card promises better performance with cooler temperatures with a quieter Zalman cooling solution.

Norco Technologies RPC-450 Rackmount Chassis

August 25 -- Norco sent us the RPC-450 4U rackmount chassis. It features 11 3.5" drive bays, three 5.25" bays, dual 120mm front intake fans, and rails for installing drives. It supports motherboards from the small dimensions of mini-ITX boards, all the way up to EEB boards at 12"x13". This doesn't come without a price: massive weight, and massive size.

Palit Radeon HD4850

August 21 -- Palit recently sent their new Radeon HD4850 videocard our way, and while it lacks some of the improvements I saw in the GeForce 9600 GSO Sonic, I'll look at a newer firmware version than the Sapphire Radeon HD4850 BIOSLEVEL.com previously looked at.

NMEDIAPC Wireless Keyboard w/ Track Ball & Remote Combo

Posted by Obsidian | 0 Comments
If you own a HTPC you might want to take some interest in the NMEDIA HTPC Wireless Keyboard and Remote Combo Set. This set is composed of two quality products with plenty of features for your typical and not so typical HTPC uses. The ergonomic and intelligent design makes for a comfortable use and natural feeling. Operating on the 2.4GHz RF spectrum you have the ability to use this set up to 10 meters from the receiver even if you have an obstacle (insert annoying family member) in the way, unlike conventional TV remotes.

A short while ago, PC Freaks & Geeks had the opportunity to take a look at one of Sapphire's 3800 cards: the HD 3850. Whilst it provided the average gamer with a decent performing GPU upgrade at hardly no cost at all, some users will in no doubt prefer a little more power under the bonnet of their PC. This is where the older brother of the HD 3850 steps in to take over, still within Sapphire's 3800 range of cards, today PC Freaks & Geeks will be taking the HD 3870 1GB card for a test drive.
