Toshiba Satellite L300-11G

Beside Satellite A300 and P300 notebook series, Toshiba also released on market redesigned Satellite L series. We will introduce you with all novelties through testing of model Toshiba Satellite L300-11G. L series didn’t experience that much cosmetic changes like new A and P series did. We could even say that Satellite L300 is less “fancy” than its predecessor. Some of us will count that as big plus because L300 has above all “neutral” design. ...

 

ATi Radeon HD 4870 X2

Launch of nVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 280 brought a huge enthusiasm in last two months, but it already begun to fade. The main “culprit” is ATi which showed to all of us that even when hard times come they are continuing with good work as if competition isn't a problem and as confirmation of their efforts we got incredible new generation of graphics cards. The whole story started with great Radeon HD 4850 and continued with HD 4870 that had GDDR5 memory. After great critics for these two GPUs, ATi was aware that they shouldn’t stop there, if they want to overthrown nVIDIA from the top performance throne. And they did it… ...

ASUS Crosshair II Formula

Engineers from ASUS took into account every little detail while designing Crosshair II Formula motherboard and by taking a closer look at layout it is obvious that they didn’t economize with components integrated into this motherboard. This had big impact on final price tag for this motherboard but all this doesn’t guarantee that configuration based on this motherboard will work flawlessly and be able to satisfy needs of every overclocker out there. ...

 

Biostar A740G M2+

Biostar introduced “office version” of motherboard based on “office” AMD RS740 chipset. Graphics core is based on RV410, identical graphics core as for AMD RD690 chipset. DX10 is not supported, which isn’t a big problem because there isn’t any integrated graphics that can run DX10 games with decent framerate yet.     ...

Upon opening the box, we checked out the non-modular cables first. These are the 24-pin connector and the 6-pin PCI-E GPU power cable (instead of the second ATX 12 V cable). This is pretty much out of the ordinary, but logical nevertheless, as all modern graphics cards require at least one of these cables. Inside the box you will find all other cables you can simply plug in if necessary, together with the second ATX cable with 4-pin and 8-pin connectors.

 

The next ones were a couple of PCI-E cables, which makes a total of three, which is rather strange, as you will most likely need either two or four, at least until three-way graphics card systems come alive. Further on, we found a couple of FDD cables, four SATA and seven standard molex connectors. As you can see in the charts, the PSU proved to be quite good. It should suffice if we point out that the voltage drop on the GPU rail is only 0.01 V, and more than satisfactory 0.03 V on the CPU rail. Also, the PSU is fairly quiet due to the 140 mm fan it possesses.
