On our test bench today we have the high end Alienware X51 configuration. It boasts an i7 CPU and GTX GPU in its specifications and we will be putting it through a selection of synthetic and real world tests, including Mass Effect 3, before taking a look at what the performance could be should the user upgrade to an SSD and Radeon 7900 card.

Cowcotland teste maintenant les machines complètes. Nous commençons notre besogne avec l'Hyperion de Materiel.net, une machine dopée aux hormones et qui s'offre la plus puissante des CG Mono GPU actuellement disponible, la GTX Titan de Nvidia. Associé à un processeur Intel Hexa-cores, l'Hyperion devrait être plus que polyvalent en excellant dans tous les domaines. A vérifier dans cet article.

The Pico-ITX form factor specifications call for the board to be 10 x 7.2 cm (3.9 x 2.8 in) and that is exactly what size the NVIDIA Ion board is. To get an idea of just how small the Pico-ITX form factor is you really need to place it next to an ATX motherboard, which is 305 mm wide by 244 mm deep (12" x 9.6". The NVIDIA Ion platform is dwarfed by today's standard desktop motherboards, but at the same time still offers true-fidelity 7.1 HD audio and HDMI outputs that can do resolutions as high as 2560 x 1600...

Since I’ve always had more than just 1 computer at my place when DSL first arrived into this country although everyone i knew chose the normal low-cost ADSL modems i opted for the more powerful and expensive modem/router combination so i could give access to all my systems without much fuss. Well to this day I’ve never stopped using modem/router models (the Netgear i have now is the 7th in line) but something strange has happened and so for the past 2 years for unknown reasons (to me at least) all the well-known network solutions companies out there have shifted their focus towards the design and manufacture of standalone router models. Of course as you can all understand i am not too fond of that cause i can't upgrade my modem/router with a newer model but since the latest 802.11ac (AC1750) Wi-Fi protocol has been introduced in routers we had to take a closer look and the TEW-812DRU AC1750 Dual Band Wireless Router by TRENDnet was the first to arrive on our doorstep.

The number of 802.11ac routers is steadily increasing. The latest one we got our hands on comes from Cisco, in the form of the Linksys EA6500. It's supposed to become the new router for the consumer market. Hardware.Info tested the EA6500 to find out whether the performance and features warrant those dreams.

What began as an impressive technology demo in 2009, appeared two years later as a new connector on the 2011 edition of the Apple MacBook Pro. Now the same technology is arriving in the world of Windows. Intel's Thunderbolt technology will drastically reduce the number of cables between computers and their peripheral devices.

Not all wireless routers are equal. Every wireless router can shuffle bits back and forth between the Internet, the local wired network, and the local wireless network. Some routers are faster than others, and that’s to be expected. However, there is another class of wireless router that offers more than the standard feature set. The ASUS RT-N66U Dual-band Wireless-N900 Gigabit Router is one such hot rod. Featuring among other things dual USB2 ports and 450 Mbps wireless transfers and the ability to create eight wireless networks, the RT-N66U is a great device for folks who want their always-on device to do more than just shuffle bits. Read on for the review.

When we first received the latest N600 router from Netgear, the first thing I said to myself was, “Why did Netgear send us an old router?” I then came to my senses and realized it was more than just a recycled name – this release of the fourth-generation WNDR3700 was truly different. Starting with the upgraded chipset, the Netgear WNDR3700v4 has been updated with one of the most proficient CPUs on the market. The 560 MHz/128 MB RAM Qualcomm Atheros AR9344 is a significant step up from the Broadcom’s 480 MHz chip found in version 3 of the Netgear N600 router. The result is a faster user experience while configuring the router as well as incredible Wi-Fi speeds...

Is the search page, Blackle.com, really an energy efficient alternative to Google? The theory is websites with black background save energy. PCSTATS finds out if this is a blatant green washing, or an earnest energy saving tweak for something we use every day.

Gone are the days of monochromatic screens, polyphonic ring tones and battery lives measured in days not hours! As smart phones have developed (particularly since the introduction of the iPhone) screens have become larger, brighter and higher in resolution, connectivity is "always on" and multimedia (be it music, movies or photos) is a minimum requirement. All this technology is wonderful but it has had a detrimental impact on battery life. Try as they might with the latest polymer battery technology, manufacturers are squeezing more features in to smaller physical forms and something has to give. Recharging your phone is now as much a part of the daily routine as cleaning your teeth or styling your hair. Forget to charge your phone and its only a matter of hours before the phone shuts down and you miss that important business call or Justin Bieber's latest tweet on Twitter (OMFG!!).
