OCZ claims the Throttle eSATA’s read and write speeds to be up to 90MB/sec and 30MB/sec respectively; far superior to the aging USB 2.0 […]
Read moreWhile Mini-ITX will be a bit more expensive than its mATX or ATX bretheren, Tweak Town had a chance to review the Albatron KI780G motherboard and it seems to pack a very large punch into a very small package.

But they didn’t buckle and they’re fighting back. They need all the publicity and press and help they can get. So now….it’s on to trial!As you might expect, it’s going […]
