Time to start posting again….

January 23rd, 2010

Well, we’re moved, settled in, and though I still have some stuff left to do, it’s pretty much done.  Never try to move during the holiday season LOL.

I did squeeze in a couple of reviews, Sapphire’s Radeon HD 5670 1GB video card, and Asus’ M4A785TD-V EVO motherboard

Both are at ThinkComputers.org.

As always, more reviews are coming:  Titan Skalli CPU Cooler, ASRock P55 Extreme motherboard, Intel i5 661 processor, Gigabyte P55A motherboard, some other stuff.

My congratulations to Senator Elect Scott Brown for a magnificent win in Massachusetts.

Merry Christmas 2009!

On this Christmas day, try to take at least a little time to remember the REAL reason for the season.  Our Lord God sent his son, Jesus Christ, to Earth to save us from our sins.

New House!

December 6th, 2009

New to us anyway.  Cindy and I have neither ever owned a house.  To finally realize “the American Dream” (yeah, like most of us don’t live the real “American dream”) we bought a house.  It is basically a “fixer upper”, but very much livable.  I’ve spent the last two days cleaning and painting, and nowhere near through.  Moving towards the end of the week.

OCZ Blade DDR3-1600 6-6-6 6GB Triple Channel Memory Kit

October 12th, 2009

“Today I will be looking at one of OCZ’s answers to triple channel, the OCZ Blade DDR3-1600 6GB kit. With timings of 6-6-6-24, we should definitely see some low-latency goodness, and its heavy finned heat spreaders should keep the modules cool. Will the Blade DDR3-1600 satisfy? Read on to see.”

AMD Phenom II X3 720 Black Edition Socket AM3 Triple Core Processor

October 12th, 2009

“Today I will be looking at my first triple core processor, the AMD Phenom II X3 720 Black Edition. It has been around about six months now, and the price has dropped a fair amount, making this CPU a definite consideration for an economy rig. With some careful shopping, using this processor and the motherboard I will be using for this review, you could easily build a rig less peripherals and operating system for under $600. Read on to check out the Phenom II X3 720!”

October 12th, 2009

Today I will be looking at the ASRock M3A785GMH/128M, an mATX board using AMD’s latest chipset, the 785G, which utilizes the SB710 Southbridge and Radeon HD 4200 integrated graphics. The board supports only Socket AM3 and DDR3 memory, which is a good thing. It also has all of ASRock’s cool features. Read on to
