Today I take a look at the Sentey Arvina GS-6400.  Head on over and check it out!

Adapters are always interesting to test – sometimes they work as advertised – and sometimes not.

Stop on over to take a look at our conclusions!

I had actually been contemplating picking up a couple of these anyways as a possible airflow management solution.  So since the case had 4 intake slots for 120mm fans, it worked out well to test those at the same time.  If you are doing a new build or looking to make some changes to an existing case, this review is worth taking a look at.

Cases have come a long way in the last few years.  Not slicing my hands up when working with cases and the hardware in them is still somewhat odd to me, but goes to show how far case manufactures have gone to accommodate enthusiast builds.  Check it out and let us know what you think.  I have been pretty impressed with SilverStone products and this one certainly didn’t disappoint.

The review has gone live today, so head on over to check it out.  There are a variety of ways to approach CPU cooling and this one took the sound approach.  I still haven’t taken it out of my machine because it is pretty impressive.

Boasting a 1680 X 1050 resolution, it should display just about anything you want to a reasonable clarity.  This is a mid-range LCD, so we can’t expect too awful much on the resolution end. It’s got 24 bit color and a 4 port USB hub built in.  A 16:9 aspect ratio give it full widescreen capabilities.

Pricing starts at about $370 and can range up to about $500 so be careful where you buy from.  Being especially frugal, one could find a discount somewhere and potentially pick up this CRT replacement for around $300.

Seriously folks, here’s a review of the Compaq B2800, which is only available in Asia and Australia. Any Aussies wanna send us one to toy with? Didn’t think so.

With a super slim profile, a 14″ screen, and weighing in at only 4.8 lbs, the B2800 sounds like a pretty serious traveling laptop.

That doesn’t seem to mean that it is a cheapo machine either. Sturdy case design, a 1.7 or 2 ghz Pentium M 740, up to 1.5 gigs of DDR2/533 Ram, and a dedicated graphics card mean this could become a favorite for all around usage. Fan Specs and screen size may limit it from ever being a gamers machine, but for a multi purpose, portable, this one may take a few cakes. Here’s a few snippets from the review to whet your appetite:

The screen is one of the week points of this notebook. For some reason it isn’t a widescreen, but it is true that widescreen have taken a bit longer to be adopted in Asian notebook models, except by Sony. But still, at this day in age they should offer this notebook with a widescreen.

The results are what you would expect from a Pentium M 740 machine. It is much faster than my old Pentium 4 HP notebook and is also a bit more responsive than my AMD Athlon XP 2000+ desktop. It is more than fast enough for nearly anything you would ask of it. If you want further speed you could also buy a faster CPU model like the Pentium M 760.
