Gigabyte unveiled it’s newest Ultrabook at the Planet Resellers pavilion of CeBIT 2012 and it seems someone has listened to the consumer for a change.

It earned our Editor’s Choice Award.  In fact, I still use the very attractive HyperX mini-tool that came with that kit daily. Today, we are going to be evaluating …

A quick note sent to me first thing this morning confirmed that the LSI integration of SandForce is underway and it is a done deal. If you have any former SandForce contacts, simply change the ‘@SandForce.com’ to @lsi.com’ and thats that. Trust me when I say that this is going to mean BIG things in the PCI Express market but …
