OCZ Enyo USB 3.0 Portable SSD @ PureOverclock
Published: Wednesday, June 9, 2010 | By: WillThis is one of those type of items that would be just awesome to have, but I'm sure the price would kill the usage. Still it would be nice to move large movies, or even have a Windows setup for random moment of HWBot benching.
"The OCZ Enyo is a portable SSD with a USB 3.0 interface that displays some blistering speed results. So it retains the best qualities of each technology, and housed in a small and sleek form. Frankly, this drive is beautifully sleek. Need top speed in a portable and external format? Then the OCZ Enyo might be just the thing to satisfy. So how fast is it? Oh, it's plenty fast alright. Let's find out."
Yeah, I know random moments of overclocking only happens in dirty movies.

Worthless Factoid - Taiwan Trash
Published: Tuesday, June 8, 2010 | By: DennisIn the US there is a kind of music we associate with Ice Cream truck, (or music trucks if you don't want your kids to bug you about ice cream). However in Taiwan that same music is not associated with Ice Cream, but rather trash collection.
From what I have heard, the same is true in Hong Kong; a friend of mine was feeling depressed when he first moved to Taiwan from HK and when he heard the music he thought that an ice cream would make him feel better. So he followed the noise only to find several guys collecting rubbish.
Talk about heartbreak

EVGA GeForce GTX 465 SuperClocked Video Card Review @ Hardware Secrets
Published: Monday, June 7, 2010 | By: WillThe results are out and the GTX 465 and it has been a mixed bag for most reviewers. Let's see if EVGA spicies up the new card with adding some overclocking to it. Read on to find out.
"GeForce GTX 465 is the latest DirectX 11-based graphics chip released by NVIDIA, being more accessible than the GTX 470 and GTX 480 models. At USD 280 - USD 300 it is quoted exactly between the Radeon HD 5830 (USD 240 - USD 275) and Radeon HD 5850 (USD 295 - USD 335). Let's see how this factory-overclocked version from EVGA dubbed SuperClocked (SC) edition fared in our tests."
That price tag just pushes me away.

Thermaltake Armor A90 @ PureOverclock
Published: Monday, June 7, 2010 | By: WillThermaltake and a case named anything Armor is going to be in the awesome category. Looks like Thermaltake has went wild with the design making it look like an art piece. I am digging the look, but just not if it is big enough to be called Armor.
"Thermaltake has long been an industry heavyweight when it comes to the chassis market, and the Armor A90 is their latest edition in the popular Armor series lineup. At a quick glance, the A90 looks quite striking with its all angular exterior aesthetics and all-black interior, which is becoming quite a popular design spec for gaming cases. Let's take a closer look at the Armor A90 and see what it brings to the mix."
Yes, this honestly does look like an armor suit more than the other Armor cases.

The Games I Keep Going Back To @ Techgage
Published: Monday, June 7, 2010 | By: WillI'm not sure all the games of the summer end up as rubbish, but here is a list of a few games that I enjoyed in my youth and even to this very day. So let's hit the list and pick out our favorites.
"Heading into a summer full of blockbuster titles that seem to all end up as rubbish, Brett takes a look at some of the top games from the past that really bring him back to gaming again and again. What do they have that so many games lack?"
Half-Life 2 is top of the list for sure.

SkyMalls Most Bizarre Products Part 1 @ Hardware Secrets
Published: Sunday, June 6, 2010 | By: WillI will admit that this is my first time hearing about SkyMalls. To be honest these are some pretty useless items, but it is worth a look just for the laughs.
"If you travel by plane you know it. If you don't, you don't know what you are losing. It you make you laugh or your money back guaranteed. I am not talking about any theme park. I am talking about SkyMall, the magazine available inside airplanes that sells the most bizarre junk ever invented. For the past few years I've been collecting the most unbelievable products sold by this magazine, and I finally decided to post my collection of "The best of SkyMall" (or it would be "The worst of SkyMall?" - you decide!). Since by now I have a huge collection, I decided to break it down in several posts. Enjoy!"
As they say "Enjoy!"
