Dual-band router from ASUS with sharing over 3G
It is often hard to get excited about a router, but there is little argument about its importance as it takes center stage in a wireless network. Up against veterans like Linksys and D-Link, ASUS still has to prove itself, but at least they seem to be getting things right on paper. ASUS’s new flagship router released under the Black Diamond series is a dual-band (2.4GHz and 5GHz) switch 900Mbps cap on bandwidth. This router also supports sharing over a localized 3G network, using a separate 3G dongle, which should prove useful if you have non-Wi-Fi handsets lying about.

NVIDIA introduces the dual-GPU GeForce GTX 690
NVIDIA recently unveiled the fastest consumer-grade graphics card that it has ever produced, called GTX 690. This graphic card has two, Kepler architecture-based, GeForce GPUs and a total of 3,072 CUDA cores. NVIDIA claims that this lets the GTX 690 dish-out frames at near double the rate of a single GTX 680, and also makes it more quieter and power efficient than dual-GTX 680 in SLI configuration.
