MSI DragonWriter MS-8348

Advantages: Supports Headset Profile
Disadvantages: Haven't found one yet.

...The stylish MSI MS-6967 is one of not many bluetooth dongles in the market that support Headset Profile, which is essential if you are going to use a mobile phone headset with your PC!!! As most of other brands do not support this function I strongly recommend this device to everyone who wants a bluetooth solution for his PC. Unlike that mentioned in the previous review, the MS-6967 supports Bluetooth Class 1 with a range of upto 100m. This is the best any bluetooth device can get so far. It works fine with IVT BlueSoleil which can be downloaded free from IVT's website. According to my experience the signal is perfect even in a distance. This product also goes with a 12cm (approx.) USB extension. You will find it's handy if you have got many wires at the back of your PC. Do avoid to buy some cheap unbranded devices as MSI provides... Read review

Advantages: Fast, Well-priced, Stable
Disadvantages: none

...Overview ***************** Today I will be reviewing the latest addition to my customized PC setup – MSI’s Geforce FX5900XT-VTD128 graphics card (bit of a mouthful, that one!)

For those that haven’t, MSI are a massive computer electronics company, and manufacture all kinds of computer-related kit – from a vast range of motherboards and graphics cards, to optical drives such as CD and DVD readers/writers. My DVD writer is made by MSI – as is my motherboard (K7n420Pro, reviewed here on dooyoo). They make decent products at a decent price, and I am very happy with my purchases. This particular graphics card is built using NVIDIA’s Geforce FX5900XT chipset - more about that below… Chipset ***************** The Geforce FX... Read review

Advantages: Plenty of expansion slots
Disadvantages: Some serial numbers have had random shutdown problems

...I have used MSI boards for years finding them generally very reliable.. I have had a problem with the USB on this board and there are reports of radom power offs and crashes which can be read elswhere - I have not suffered from this. Expansion is excellent and the board is very quick. The MSI utilities are useful especially the bios and driver updates which so far have been very reliable. They come in two flavours either using the update feature on the MSI website or from the supplied software. I would recomend a fairly high wattage PSU with this board as it will save on a later PSU upgrade if you go down the SLI graphics upgrade path or continue to add components later on. It can be overclocked quite easily and remains fairly stable. There is also an option to speed up the processor or slow it down depending on whether you are playing... Read review
