Back in March we found some of the crazies network messes ever and since that time we’ve had quite a few submissions of really bad network messes. While most system administrators like a nice and clean cabled cabinet of servers, it does not always work out that way. So we have compiled another post of some of the most insane network messes ever! Enjoy!

Following on from my review on Asus’ top performing wireless AC router, the RT-AC68U that we looked at not too long ago, it is only worth us taking a closer look at what makes this next generation wireless adaptor tick. Unless your laptop or desktop system has built-in wireless, there is one of two main options out there for you to choose from in order to add the freedom to your system that is wireless networking. The first of these methods is to get a USB based device which is a simple device with very little setup required – literally plug it in, install the driver and you’re away. In addition a USB adaptor is compatible with both notebook and desktop systems and they are not overly expensive either. Like most things though there is a downside to going down the USB path; whilst they are able to deliver some highly respectable levels of performance, the antenna is either very small, or internal to the adaptor and therefore signal strength can be an issue.

Häufig testen wir hier bei Hardwareluxx PC-Komponenten, Notebooks, Smartphones, Tablets und vieles mehr aus dem High-End-Bereich schließlich heißt es "Your guide to luxurious hardware" - der Name ist eben Programm. Doch auch wenn viele lieber etwas über Prozessoren für mehrere hundert Euro oder Grafikkarten im vierstelligen Euro-Bereich lesen, das Kaufverhalten auch unter unseren Lesern ist häufig ein anderes. Wie auch bei vielem im Alltag an der Supermarktkasse steht das Verhältnis vom Preis zur Leistung im Vordergrund und daher wollen wir uns heute einmal anschauen, was ein Gaming-Rechner für 369 Euro zu leisten imstande ist. Sicherlich werden wir hier kein 3D-Feuerwerk in UltraHD-Auflösung erleben, aber diesen Anspruch wollen wir heute auch nicht bestärken, sondern einmal schauen, ob selbst ein solches System, das so viel kostet wie so manche Grafikkarte, in der Lage ist mehr oder weniger aktuelle Spiele in FullHD, sprich 1.080p, wiederzugeben.

Does size really matter? On some human levels it might, though a different trend has been observed in the PC market over the last year. Compact is the key word, featuring mITX sized motherboards and idem ditto enclosures. These compact PCs are playing a more and more important role in every manufacturers' lineup: Mini PCs, NUCs, they are all amongst us now. For most users the bundled power is more than plenty as the size maters the most. Nevertheless combining the raw power of a desktop setup inside a mini sized housing is a step in another direction. Gigabyte is having big success with their BRIX boxes, time to step up one level. Today we are going to test one of these Gigabyte supercharged versions: the BRIX Pro.

With so many Wireless devices in populating the home these days there is a growing need to guarantee Wi-Fi coverage. For those that have invested in Wi-Fi-AC routers for their wireless computers, games, and multimedia devices, the last thing they want is to run out of useful signal. For 802.11ac devices this is especially problematic. Even though the 5GHz AC-band gives users the fast data throughput, it also has a range that is much more limited when compared to the 2.4GHz band. What Amped Wireless attempts to deliver with the REC15A is a way that users can extend the range of their router to all areas of the house and grounds. This is done by repeating and amplifying the 5GHz 802.11ac signal...

The whole idea behind Gigabyte’s BRIX ultra compact PC kit’s are to give you a functional PC with an extremely small form factor. This makes them perfect for a media or internet machine. Their small size means you can put them pretty much anywhere as well. While the BRIX systems have been out for a while the BRIX projector is a newer product that takes a BRIX ultra compact PC Kit and adds a micro-projector for a complete and very cool setup. It is actually quite impressive that Gigabyte has been able to fit a projector right on top of the BRIX, making it not much larger than the normal version. The Gigabyte BRIX Projector that we are taking a look at today is powered by the Intel i3-4010U 1.7GHz processor and Intel HD 4400 graphics. Being that this is a “PC Kit” you will need to install your own DDR3L memory and mSATA drive. Let’s take a look!

Limefuel also has a smaller, much more portable mobile charger with its 6,000mAh Blast L60X. Read on as Anthony tells us about it.

If I was to say the name Asus to a selection of people and ask what they would associate them with, I’d almost guarantee that none of them would say wireless or networking products in any way and this is quite understandable considering the fact that they are one of the biggest names out there on the market for motherboards and graphics card. Believe it or not though, networking has been something that Asus have been working on for a few years now and even though they have already got a wide selection of wireless and wired networking products out there, they are not as well-known about due to the bread and butter nature of their key product ranges.

Today I am reviewing a case for the Samsung Galaxy S5 made by X-Doria. This particular model is the Dash Folio Spin. One thing I have noticed on the S5 and having had the S4 other than the large screen and the beautiful 5.1 Full HD Super AMOLED Display (On the S5) is that the phone looks particularly frail and so a case that surrounds the phone and protects it from all sides seems to be a needed accessory. And as you will find I am a simple and humble man, I have simple and humble dreams and so arrived this case…
