MSI Wind U100 Category of small cheap notebooks became very popular and there is no wonder why most of big brands want a piece of cake for themselves. But Asus got all of them off-guard. Because of that we’ve been waiting rather long for Eee’s true rival . We’ve already mentioned MSI’s agility which allowed them again to be first with new product on market. Their trump card wears name Wind and model that InsideHW had tested is MSI Wind U100. ... Puma Platform for Notebooks The long waited AMD platform for notebooks under the name PUMA is finally introduced and InsideHW had a chance to test notebook based on this platform. To all users that have been waiting cheap integrated graphics with good performances, time has come. Intel Centrino was so far “untouchable” in field of portable computers but AMD Puma, by all appearance, got a necessary quality to fight for highest position. ... Prestigio Data Safe II Fashion Edition USB hard disks lately become very popular. This especially goes for 2.5’’models. The reasons for that can be found in their usefulness and practicality. Yet, we are living in times when it is necessary to transfer huge amounts of data from place to place. At first, manufacturers on market fought with larger and larger capacity of these devices. Lately, when capacity stopped being key factor, manufacturers turned to HDD case design. On that field, Prestigio went step ahead of its competitors and launched Prestigio data Safe II Fashion Edition. ... ATI 48xx Architecture At the end of June, in Spain, we were introduced to a new series of 48xx graphics cards from ATI. We saw then only RV770PRO (4850) but at this moment 4870 (RV770XT) is also available. Even though our sources from AMD didn’t unveil why 4870 wasn’t shown on launching, we assume that some problems with quantities of available GDDR5 memory occurred. Considering that 4850 uses GDDR3 memory, it is no surprise that many retailers had them on stock. ATI 4870 will be sold, in beginning, exclusively with GDDR5 memory (this is the first graphics card that uses this memory) but AMD leaves a possibility that some innovative partner might launch later version that uses GDDR3 memory. ... Sapphire HD 4850 It’s rare occasion to have on test, on the same month, new generation products from two big rivals (nVIDIA and ATI). This is really good news because ATI had some serious delays with R600 and that is one of reasons why it was so indifferently received on market. ATI realized that now must roll up its sleeves to catch up nVIDIA, because at that point seemed that nVIDIA unreachably moved away. ...

NVIDIA is challenging programmers across Europe to flex their coding muscles on CUDA, the only C-language environment that taps into the massive processing power of GPUs to solve a wide range of computationally-intensive problems. The competition invites entrants to create a mainstream stand-alone application or plug-in using CUDA, with valuable prizes on offer to the winners.
InsideHW did so far reviews for a few great motherboards from ASUS and this time in our test lab came ASUS P5E64 WS Evolution. First we have to underline that this exact model ASUS intended for advanced users. Professional and "serious" look of this motherboard perfectly matches the purpose and group of users that ASUS P5E64 WS Evolution is intended for.
Foxconn launched the first AMD platform motherboard in its highly-successful Quantum Force product range. Destroyer is based on the NVIDIA 780a SLI MCP and supports the latest AMD Phenom processors along with socket AM2 Athlon and Sempron CPUs. It supports HyperTransport 3.0 technology, which dramatically increases available bandwidth between CPU and other system components. 
Finally, we had tested Acer Aspire 6920G after Acer’s announcement for new Aspire Gemstone notebooks in March this year. Black cover in “piano” finish looks very elegant despite our first thought of greasy fingerprints all over it. At some point, I even thought that I am too subjective, so I asked my colleagues what they think and we finally agree that fingertips are less noticeable than on other notebooks with similar finishing process. In the middle of notebook cover is logo which lights up when notebook is on.
With its continuous effort to provide the most advanced technology with the simplest usage experience, Asus unveils the latest feature, Express Gate. This additional built-in operating system enables ultra fast boot up for access to a host of most commonly used features on its full range of notebooks based on Intel’s latest platform.
