SunbeamTech Airbox Enclosure (Review)
The SunbeamTech Airbox HDD enclosure features both eSATA and USB connections along with a built-in 80mm cooling fan and an aluminum housing to make sure things keep cool. SunbeamTech Airbox is well made and it’s very easy to install your hard drive into, a few screws and you’re done and ready to transfer your files.
In the front is LED bar that will let you know power is on and will indicate HDD activity by blinking slightly.
On the back is where you’ll find the connections for eSATA, USB and power along with the main power switch as well and more ventilation holes. Also on and off switch for fan L.E.D’s.

Will be set in the present day this time around It would appear that Electronic Arts has plans for a new Medal of Honor title that apparently has been in the works for a bit. While our sources tell us that that this new Medal of Honor title will be a new spin on the series, as it is going to be set in the present day and will offer a new take on the modern warfare concept. Our sources whisper to us that we should expect it to arrive in the February or March 2010 time frame for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC platforms. It is expected that EA will release official word prior to the end of the year, according to our sources. It is unknown which EA developer or studio has been working on the title or if the recent EA restructuring will have bearing on the title’s release date. |

AMD 890GX has 700MHz graphics
| Written by Fuad Abazovic | |

DirectX 10.1 AMD will finally launch a new DirectX 10.1 based chipset but unfortunately, this won’t happen at least until May 2010. The graphics core on AMD 890GX should work at 700MHz like the HD 3300 core on the 790GX, and for 22W TDP Northbridge this is quite a good clock speed. As you can imagine 890 GX graphics are based on a crippled version of the RV710 graphics core and therefore it supports UVD 2. The launch date should be May, but we expect motherboards based on it to start showing around Computex 2010 that kicks off in first week of June 2010.

Another L4D title in the works?
Midnight Riders might be next survivors
As many have been slugging it out in the Left 4 Dead sequel, a well placed hint suggests that another chapter in the franchise might already be in the works. (As if we didn’t already know that Valve was going to produce another game in the franchise!)
During the play of the “Dark Carnival” level, fans might recognize the southern rock band that is called “The Midnight Riders” throughout the level. The Midnight Riders may, in fact, be the next survivors if the posters promoting the official Website and the teaser on the Website offers a hint of what might be coming in the future for the franchise.
Some of our sources tell us that it might not be a new title, but just some promotion for upcoming download content for L4D2 that will feature these southern rockers as the survivors. Sources are suggesting that all will be revealed early next year; and, of course, Valve isn’t yet commenting on what might be in the works. When they are ready to talk about it, we are sure you will read about it here.
