    Aukey KM-G6 Mechanical Keyboard

    Bought it and the key caps wore out in weeks playing PUBG... and the different colour backlighting would have been so much better if it had been a single solid colour. But great feel for typing

    Thermaltake Intros View 21 Tempered Glass Edition Case

    I'd like 4 x USB 3, 280mm rad support, and I hate that external screws on the expansion slots - so it needs a bigger brother...

    ASRock Gives Vision 3D Sandy Bridge Power

    This is an ideal example of the wrong internals - should be an AMD A75 mobo and a A8-3850 APU. The Intel may have better processing - but who cares in an HTPC? It's about good graphics at 1080p, low power... Only other thing is why is the top concave? If it gets warm I bet you could put a...

    MachXtreme Technology Unveils Urban Series High-Density Dual-Channel DDR3 Memory Kits

    not sure I'd buy memory because of the heat spreader design - low profile, yes - if it don't fit what's the point - low energy, probably not if I'm overclocking the cpu - low latency, perhaps - high density, perhaps - low cost, definitely - funky heat spreader graphix, errrrrrr

    AMD Readies A8-3870 APU with Unlocked BClk Multiplier

    this needs to be a cut down 8 core chip which can be unlockable to become interesting... and it should be sub £100

    AMD A8-3850 Fusion GPU Performance Analysis

    What a great review - thanks for all the time and effort. So, from what I can see, the A8-3850 only makes sense if you're buying a vanilla pc for vanilla pc work - an office PC, where some gpu acceleration would be nice, but you're not going to go to a full graphics card...

    GPU for BFBC2

    go for a better screen - something with HDMI, DVI inputs - screens last forever so get the best you can afford... regarding the GPU - get the 5770 and when you get some more money, get another!

    What to do? Crossfire or new GPU

    depends of if your 4850 is a 512 or a 1024 - if it's the latter it'll run faster at the higher res of the new screen, and worth crossfire-ing with a similar card. If the 512MB card, then sell and upgrade as you'll never get a better price for it than now... akasa vortexx neo aftermarket coolers...
