    Rosewill Intros RK-9000 Series Mechanical Keyboards

    I grew up using a mechanical keyboard. I originally used an IBM Model M which uses buckling spring switches, so I've known about mechanical keyboards for a while.

    Rosewill Intros RK-9000 Series Mechanical Keyboards

    The RK-9000 has existed before. It got deactivated, and it appears they decided to reactivate it.

    PNY Launches GeForce Liquid Cooled Graphics Cards

    This is listed on PNY's site as an actual product. The only photoshopping that might have gone on is getting rid of the shirts.

    Intel Ivy Bridge Dual-Core Put Through Clock-to-Clock Benches Against Sandy Bridge

    Yup, just a shrink, not much of a huge architectural overhaul. Also good catch on the dual vs quad. I assumed they were smart enough to do dual vs dual

    Intel Ivy Bridge Dual-Core Put Through Clock-to-Clock Benches Against Sandy Bridge

    You, sir, clearly didn't even read the thread (it's a Chinese site). As for the BD remarks, all I care is if it's a competitive product to at least SB stuff.

    Intel Ivy Bridge Dual-Core Put Through Clock-to-Clock Benches Against Sandy Bridge

    Chinese and Japanese share enough characters that I'm not surprised that it detected incorrectly. What's the latest rumor-mill information regarding Ivy Bridge release date?

    ASUS Announces New F1A75 Series Motherboards

    That's probably why Anand used more than just SysMark. The scroll bar exists for a reason

    ASUS Announces New F1A75 Series Motherboards

    He may not have stated his basis, but I suspect that it was this: http://www.anandtech.com/show/4448/amd-llano-desktop-performance-preview/2 Try comparing it to H67 then.

    ASUS Announces New F1A75 Series Motherboards

    How I read it, the APU's GPU is not disabled because Radeon Dual Graphics is supported (marketing name for APU + discrete GPU working in tandem). Also, I recall [H] doing a test where even x4 in SLI/Crossfire didn't make a significant difference with GTX 480s and Radeon 5870s

    NVIDIA Makes SLI Support on AMD Platform Official with New BETA GeForce Driver

    FX Turbo Core Technology Bumps Frequency by 1.00 GHz

    http://blogs.amd.com/work/2011/01/31/bulldozer-goes-to-11/ I know that post is about BD, but the same concepts still apply. Stock clocks are set by considering the worst possible scenario so that you're not overrating your products. Turbo is simply allowing you to tap up to the TDP.

    ASUS ROG Launches Bigfoot Networks Killer E2100 Networking With New AMD Motherboard

    Honestly if you're already running Intel LAN, I don't see why you'd bother with it. If anything, I would imagine that other home network components (such as your router) would cause more problems. Either way, I don't see it as worth the extra money. Also, last I checked the board itself has...
