The Benefits Of Google Apps
If you own a business, then there is a chance that you will be looking for a way in which you can share your files so that people can work remotely. This type of working is becoming more and more popular in the modern world, with companies realizing that they don't really have any need to pay to run an office when their employees could do exactly the same work from the comfort of their own home. This would save money for the company, and would also mean that the employee could cut down on the amount of time that they spent travelling to and from the office, as well as removing travel expenses. Here, we will explore more about just some of the benefits of Google Apps.

Case Mod Friday: Smokey Green Giant
Welcome to another Case Mod Friday showcase! This week we have Derrick Ubbink’s Smokey Green Giant build. Here is what he had to say about it: The inspiration for this build comes from the frustration of dealing with small cases while water cooling. I set out to find a case that was simply huge and didn't have terrible outer aesthetics. I found the Fulmo GT met these requirements so quickly ordered one and set to work gutting it and making it to my liking. In the end I went with a dual loop water cooled setup, one for CPU the other GPU, each cooled by a single 420mm Alphacool radiator. And what started out as a TRI-SLI 3GB GTX 580 rig quickly became QUAD-SLI 580s and finally I went for a pair of GTX Titans. I'm super happy with the results and will just be enjoying it for awhile!

Noctua Fans Review
So you’re putting together your all out custom build. You’ve got the best processor, motherboard, memory, GPU, and case you can buy. Now is the time you’re going to have to start thinking about fans and cooling. Whether it be air or water, you will need fans. This is often forgotten till the end, and this item is crucial to bringing all those bits together and helping them to perform to their fullest.

Rosewill T600N Wireless Router Review
In this modern area of wireless networking, the market is flooded with devices with advanced feature sets, sometimes not performing as well as others. This trade-off can be frustrating.

It’s an 802.11a/b/g/n router that can do 300 Mbps per frequency and even features standard replaceable antennas for its 2.4 GHz radio. ThinkComputers takes a look at this sub $60 unit that frequently can be found online for under $50!

SilverStone DS322 Dual Bay USB 3.0 Enclosure Review
Sometimes it can be hard to find an easy, affordable and reliable solution for external PC backups in one product. I have used several HDD enclosures and NAS products from several different makers and never really fell in love with any of them. Most of them have extremely complicated menus that you have to sift through to try and figure out how to change the RAID setup of the device. Then you have to wait several hours just for it to format a few hundred Gigs of space. In the past, when deciding on a RAID capable enclosure you really need to prioritize what is important to you and ask yourself a few questions. How much does it cost? How reliable it is? How easy is it to use? Keep all of those questions in mind as you read this review and I think you will be pleasantly surprised with this enclosure.

What To Expect From The Next iPhone
If Apple follows their typical release schedule, the new iPhone will be available sometime this summer, and the rumors are already flying about what that's going to contain. With rival phones from Android stepping up their game, will Apple feel the pressure to do something completely new and spectacular? Maybe it'll be like the 4S, which made small improvements to the iPhone 4 but didn't break out of the mold too much. Nobody really knows, as Apple hasn't provided us with any official information yet, but there are some of the speculated changes.

Corsair Vengeance 2000 Wireless Gaming Headset Review

Vengeance 2000 Overview
If you saw our review of the Vengeance 1500 headset, you will notice that both headsets look a lot alike.  They do both have a similar design, but just a few things are different since the 2000 is wireless.  The headset has a very nice and professional look to it with black and silver accents.  While I first thought the sides of the headset where aluminum, they are actually a plastic that is meant to look like aluminum.  You have matching Corsair logos on each side of the headset.

Starting at the headband it is made of leather and has some cool blue stitching around it.  The leather should make using this headset for hours nice and comfortable.

The headband itself is adjustable.  It can be pulled up on each side to fit your head perfectly.  There are notches on each side so you can make sure you have each side set to the same distance.

While the right earcup is pretty plain the left one has a lot going on.  There is a large button with an LED indicator below it.  The button will turn on the headset and connect it to the wireless USB adapter, you also turn off the headset by pressing and holding it in.  There is a scroll wheel towards the bottom of the earcup that allows for fast and easy volume adjustment.  Also hidden beside the scroll wheel is a small mini USB port that is used for charging the headset.

Also attached to the left earcup is a unidirectional noise-cancelling microphone.  It can be moved up or down to be positioned for the best sound capture and can be bent in.

The earcups themselves are nice and big and are made of felt, which is going to be very comfortable.  Corsair has made the inside of the earcups blue, a nice little design feature.  Both earcups can be rotated 90 degrees so you are able to lay the headset flat.

The headset does come with a wireless USB adapter and a 1.5m USB extension cable.  The wireless USB adapter sits in the extension cable much like a dock.  Having the extension cable gives you more freedom in where you want to place the wireless adapter for better connection.

     You mute the microphone by tilting the microphone boom back to its seated position. I prefer this to a button on the side as it simplifies the controls.

    Hello!
    I want to ask, if sound quality in bypass is pretty much the same as in 1500 except the bass differences (some think that bass on 2000 is still better than on 1500)? No loss due to wireless? That’s what I’m trying to find out (I haven’t tried any wireless headsets before) and I want first of all good sound quality in bypass. Was going to buy 1500 actually, but then heard about better mic and (probably?) better sound quality of 2000. Is 2000 better than 1500 in bypass, or worse due to wireless?

    Got quite dissapointed about the hiss… is it really subtle or quite noticable, will it affect overal perfomance? Were there any connection drops (the ones in close range (like some of wireless headsets reconnect constantly leaving you without audio for several seconds as I heard))?

    Basically all I want to ask is whether performance of the wireless version is worse than the performance of the wired one or not, because lots of people say that “wireless headsets are always worse than the wired once in terms of sound quality” and everything like that =)

    Thank you for your answer!
