    A good review. Seems to be a small step up from the original flagship that doesn't cost Intel much extra. Power consumption went in the wrong way though.

    Is it possible to overclock a dell e4500 CPU?

    A prebuilt computer like Dell or HP has a locked-down BIOS and motherboard. Your CPU is capable, but the motherboard simply doesn't have the options to overclock, unfortunately.

    Or you could take it a step further - and connect the refrigerator condenser to the cooling system ;) I recall reading someone that something similar back in the Athlon 64 days.

    Does Radeon R9 290X Behave Any Differently In A Closed Case?

    It's good to see that board partners are able to squeeze more power out of the Hawaii boards. Makes both parties much more competitive.

    With the NSA spying scandals I'm surprised people are still mocking security today. If Apple or Google had mentioned "Security is #1" I'm sure there would be only praises.

    Func's KB-460 Mechanical Keyboard Hits Shelves

    Aside from the choice of key, the design itself is very good. Looks similar to my Microsoft Sidewinder in many ways.

    New BlackBerry Interim CEO Now Cleaning House

    Cue the people claiming that Android, WinPhone or whatever will fix BlackBerry's problems. Here's the current climate: the only Android maker making any significant money is Samsung, because they own all the production facilities needed. No one else is making money. Switch to Android and...

    Galaxy S5 Could Sport 2560x1440 Display Over 5 Inches

    I for one would rather see innovations in material quality, innovative design or software improvements rather than an all-out spec war. Look where the spec war got us with consumer PCs. It is 2013 and we still have bulky towers stuffed with cheapest components in pursuit of margin. I for one...
