Hardware Roundup for Jan. 6

There’s lots of great reviews going around today. If you are into bizarre products, then you may want to check out Overclockers Online because they are reviewing a mouse with a microphone in it. You heard right, and yes, it’s wierd. Byte Sector is taking a look at the new P XE 955 which rolls in at a stock 3.46GHz. He didn’t manage to get a huge OC out of it, and for the price you would hope you could.

Rojak Pot is taking the new 4GB Corsair Voyager drive for a spin, which we also tested last month. For a good CrossFire board, check out Bit-Tech today for their review of the MSI RD480. The board is pretty good overall, but requires you to use S-ATA drivers to install Windows! If you are looking for a killer racing wheel, then head over to TweakPC for a roundup for four.
