Amdboard have posted the new AMD roadmap showing where AMD plan to go in the next few years.

The guys at Overclockers New Zealand have posted a DDR RAM Guide, part 2 with the ram being tested on an Epox 8DRA+.

SubZeroTech have a "How to clean your keyboard" article. Not very exciting but certainly useful!

This from MoJoMaN, "Hewlett-Packard has removed from the market keyboard software provided with some of its Pavilion models, which sent frequent network-checking signals apparently to a central site that indicated when users were connected to the internet and when they pressed certain function keys". The full story here.

You can find a guide on how to add a Pocket PC to a WIFI network over on ExtremeMhz. But how do I add a pocket-watch?

Sudhian have had a long hard look at a GeForce FX card. They have much to say about them. "The GeForce FX cannot outpace the Radeon 9700 Pro. It may be a tie in many cases, and the two GPU’s will trade top spots in various situations". Its worth a read.

X-bit labs have a roundup of Five USB Flash-Drives. These things are getting cheaper by the day and are growing in capacity even faster. I'll be in the market for one very soon...just don't tell my wife.

Its that time again. ZZZ #158 is out. Get your fill of the weird'n wacky... or not so wacky.

So...you call yourself an overclocker? How do you rate against this list. My wife closes the door even when we don't have visitors!

Now for a couple of eye catching pieces, Nigel found this nice monitor in his wanderings. I don't have any more info about it but it does look amazingly large... And Wired found this system submerged in mineral oil. Mineral oil used as a coolant is not new but this is one of the better looking efforts I've seen.
