ASUS P7H55D-M EVO Clarksdale Motherboard @ Benchmark Reviews

Intel-land is becoming a very confusing place of late. An Intel Core i7 processor might be Socket 1366, or it might be Socket 1156.

A Core i5 processor might be dual core or quad core; it might have Hyper-Threading or not, or integrated video or other features, and there's no way to tell just from the name. And to make things even more confusing, there are now four consumer-level chipsets for Core i5 processors: the original P55, as well as the new H55, H57, and Q57 chipsets.

The newer chipsets are required if you want to use the integrated video feature of some of the Intel 2010 Core Processor Family CPUs, and ASUS, as always, is ready with new motherboards to support the latest technology.

In this review Benchmark Reviews covers the new ASUS P7H55D-M EVO motherboard, based on the Intel H55 chipset.

Logitech MX-620 Cordless Laser Mouse @ Benchmark Reviews

Since 1981, Logitech has been making a name for themselves in the computer hardware scene. When you think of computer peripherals, you typically think of Logitech.

This veteran company is naturally a top choice when deciding to purchase any type of input device, ranging from keyboards to webcams. As a worldwide leader in pointing devices, it's no surprise Logitech has learned to adapt to the current market and reinvent the mouse each time they release a new product. With the Logitech MX-620 cordless laser mouse, model 910-000240, the company doesn't disappoint.

But how does it compare with the wide variety of mice that are already available? Benchmark Reviews tests the Logitech MX-620 in this article to answer that very question.

AMD Athlon-II X2-255 AM3 Processor @ Benchmark Reviews

In late January 2010, AMD released a new series of processors that fills in some of the gaps in their Athlon-II and Phenom-II Dual, Triple, and Quad-Core Lines.

Most of the newly released processors are really just 100MHz clock speed bumps on the old versions. We have also seen the addition of some triple and quad core Athlon-II processors.

In this article Benchmark Reviews focuses on the newly released AMD Athlon-II X2-255 AM3 ADX255OCGQBOX processor. Based on the Regor core, the Athlon-II X2-255 has a 3.1GHz clock speed, up 100Mhz from the Athlon-II X2-250 at 3.0GHz which was released last summer.

The Athlon-II X2-255 is at the very low end of the newly released processors and represents a value based market at only $75. Benchmark Reviews is going to use the Athlon-II X2-255, with its support for DDR2 RAM up to 1066MHz as well as DDR3 RAM up to 1333MHz, to show some of the great upgrade options available for consumers who have been waiting for! a low-cost option for a better computer system.
