ATI Radeon HD 5870 1GB Review [125]
Graphics | 23rd Sep 2009

Batmobile? Oh that. Yes, we can see why you might think that but it's actually ATI's new Radeon HD 5870 1GB graphics card. The new model is based on the company's next generation Cypress GPU, but is it worth snapping one up right way? To the Batmobile!

Gigabyte GA-P55M-UD4 Review

Gigabyte GA-P55M-UD4 Review [21]
Motherboards | 22nd Sep 2009

Gigabyte squeezes in the goods into this micro-ATX P55 motherboard. It's not all that cheap but it still squeezes in CrossFire and SLI support, as well as plenty of features. We check if it trade blows with the big boys to decide whether it's worth pairing with the popular Core i5-750.

Halo 3: ODST Review

Halo 3: ODST Review [42]
Xbox 360 | 22nd Sep 2009

Is Halo: ODST really just Halo without the Master Chief or can it rise above the obvious and become a notable expansion to Bungie's beloved shooter franchise? We take a look to find out if there's more to Orbital Drop Shock Trooper than meets the eye.

PC | 20th Sep 2009

There's a common perception that free online MMOs are garbage. Taking on the development of game that might not net you enough cash to buy a tuna sandwich is something few companies are keen on doing. We find out if there's any that are worth investing time in.

Resident Evil 5 PC Review

Resident Evil 5 PC Review [25]
PC | 20th Sep 2009

We take a look at the PC version of Resident Evil 5 to see what Capcom has added in for the PC version of the game and why it's taken five months to put it all together - which is especially confusing considering there isn't that much actually new content on show.

Eizo Foris FX2431 24in TFT Monitor Review

Eizo Foris FX2431 24in TFT Monitor Review [26]
Hardware | 19th Sep 2009

Eizo usually caters for image professionals, but the new Foris range is the company's first foray into entertainment screens. Expect high quality images, more features than you could possibly want, excellent build quality and probably a price to match!

Asus RoG Mars Quad SLI Review

Asus RoG Mars Quad SLI Review [67]
Graphics | 18th Sep 2009

Asus has done what Nvidia couldn't, and paired two full-speed GeForce GTX 285 GPUs on one card. The GTX 295 uses two under-clocked GTX 275 GPUs, so the Mars should be the fasest graphics card on the planet (for a little while, at least).
