Review of Hauppauge HD PVR by Pwank

Disadvantages: Not suitable for proffessional users, poor handling of motion footage.

Review of Club 3D GeForce GT 630 by NotMyToothbrush

Advantages: Great performance for the price
Disadvantages: A little noisey

I have always stuck with NVIDIA cards for good reason. The purchase of this graphics card cements my decision. The performance of this card, for the price is excellent. Although it isn't amongst the top end cards on the market, being able to get it at s ... Read review

Cool and quiet performer
Review of MSI R7850 Twin Frozr 2GD5/OC by Mk2twin40

Advantages: Quiet, hits expectations for an upper-middle level card
Disadvantages: Catalyst control panel tries to be too pretty, an opinion which applies to all ATI cards

Many years ago, ATI's main rival Nvidia slipped off their pedestal as graphics card manufacturer of first choice, as ATI's cards represented better value for money when put side by side. Then the pendulum swung back into Nvidia's favour a few years ago an ... Read review

Advantages: Price, build quality, ease of use, quiet, capable.
Disadvantages: Struggles a little on todays games at 1920x1080 or over.

...picked up this card, the Asus GTX550ti Direct CU, around 6 months ago. I was in all honestly looking for a cheap card that would allow me to play Battlefield 3 on PC. Asus sure did deliver! I paid around £100 but I believe prices have dropped since the ... Read review

Advantages: Use 1 controller for 2 devices. Simple to use
Disadvantages: None really

I own a PC. I own an XBox 360. I am told I play too much on both. This is probably true. I actually tend to play most of my games on my PC, I guess I am a bit old-school like that. However, I love the controller for my 360, and I really wanted to use ... Read review

Advantages: Brand, Maps quickly to Pro Tools
Disadvantages: Price, Customer Service takes a little while to respond

I have used many an "Mbox" in my time working in and designing home studios and so far, this one look the nicest. You get what you pay for is true in a sense: you get pretty good quality, but the price is too high for the amount of I/O (inputs and output ... Read review

Great for gaming but...
Review of PowerColor HD6850 by mikejw721

Advantages: The card is worth the money, it's cool, fast and reliable.
Disadvantages: The 5850 is considerably faster than the 6850, it's not very quiet and it lacks potential.

...I didn't like the idea that AMD released the 6000 series soon after the 5000 series sold so well. I can assure you that this card has played anything I have thrown at it, and I'm running on a dual-core! I play EVE Online a lot and it runs flawle ... Read review
