Solid State Drives are a fabulous way to boost a system's performance, but for all their strong points, they aren't an easy upgrade for a lot of people. Performance can vary significantly between manufacturers, only the most expensive drives can replace the need for an HDD in an enthusiast / data-heavy system, and reinstalling a full suite...

T-Mobile announced new mobile broadband plans that don't require an annual contract. The new plans, which are set to be available May 20, offer users a few options for accessing high-speed Internet while on the go. The new plans offer different allotments of data and start at $15 for 300MB for one week. The plans scale up from there, with...

The Ivy Bridge-based bounty from Toshiba today is great indeed. The company announced a trio of notebooks and an all-in-one, primarily designed for audio/visual consumption. The Qosmio T752 is a high-end A/V notebook boasting an aluminum case, 15.6-inch LCD screen, 8GB of memory, a 1TB hard drive, and an Intel Core i7-3610QM (2.3GHz) processor....

If you’re having a hard time convincing your boss that you need a new work notebook (“It only has a single core, boss. One core!”), then this sweet piece of machinery from Dell is probably just a pipe dream for you, although if your work involves running 3D workloads, you may have a shot. The Dell Precision R5500 rack workstation...

We can't say Sapphire's late to the Radeon HD 7770 party, simply because Sapphire was there from the get-go. However, we can say that Sapphire is perhaps staying longer than most other party goers, choosing now to launch its new 'Sapphire HD 7770 Vapor-X OC Edition' variant with an "exclusive implementation of Vapor chamber cooling technology."...

If you're sitting around waiting anxiously for Samsung to release its third generation Galaxy smartphone, you're in good company.

There are reports in several corners of the Web claiming EVGA is recalling, or partially recalling, its GeForce GTX 670 Superclock graphics card, and while it's true the videocard maker discovered a problem with some early run silicon, EVGA Product Manager Jacob Freeman released a statement clarifying the issue. "Thank you for your patience...

Unsure if you've noticed, but Ultrabooks have been looking mighty sharp of late. With vendor after vendor aiming for an ever-tighter, slimmer piece of the notebook pie, Acer has outdone itself with the new TravelMate P243 series. It's actually designed for small businesses, but there's nothing here stopping the average consumer from digging...

As devices shrink, so too much storage. It's just how it goes. SSDs have taken the place of HDDs in tighter tablets and notebooks, and Samsung is hoping to squeeze even more out of every memory chip it makes, too. With smartphones becoming a larger piece of the company's bottom line, it makes sense to introduce the industry's first four gigabit...

There are fan controllers and then there are fan controllers, and it’s always fun to see some that are a bit tricked out. BitFenix has a pair of them, the Recon and the Hydra Pro. The Recon’s primo feature is that you can control it over the Internet via a Web browser. The controller features five channels, a touchscreen interface,...

It’s no secret that Eurocom makes some incredibly spec-heavy notebooks and mobile workstations. Often, those high-performing mamba jambas are also rather weighty and bulky, but the company has apparently accepted the challenge (and possibly felt market pressure) to create something smaller that still packs a punch for gamers. The Monster...

There are plenty of Sprint customers who are anxiously awaiting the arrival of their hot new HTC EVO 4G LTE smartphone.

Although Sprint and HTC can't do a lot at the moment, HTC is working closely with...

Intel's presumably affordable dual-core Core i7 3520M processor with Ivy Bridge DNA is slated to ship next month, but if you're willing to wait a bit longer for something a bit more powerful, there's a Core i7 3525M chip on the horizon, too. Like the Core i7 3520M, the  Corei7 3525M processor will boast a 2.9GHz stock clockspeed capable...

Now that the iPhone 4S has been out for a few months, iPhone 5 rumors are starting to heat up. The latest chatter surrounding Apple's next generation iPhone model ('new' iPhone, perhaps?) has the Cupertino company looking at a screen size upgrade that will add at least half an inch to the current 3.5-inch display found all iPhone models.
