OCAU News

Wow, there's a lot of news to catch up on...

Matthew says there are new nForce2 drivers, v2.41, so head on over to NVIDIA's driver download page. There's also some new VIA Hyperion 4-in-1 drivers, version 4.47.

OCAU got a mention in an article in Tuesday's The Australian newspaper this week. Unfortunately they got the URL wrong! I think that happened last time we were in the newspaper too. Anyhoo, it sprung from this thread and it's about case modders. Update: Ah, they fixed the URL, mostly.

Andrew sent in this (apparently) funny video by NVIDIA, taking the mickey out of their own FX 5800 Ultra product. Go here, click Goodies section, then find the funny FX 5800 Ultra link, then wade through the zillion other links you have to do before you finally get to download the file. Update: This site has an easier download of what sounds like the same thing.

Nexus compared some power supplies from Antec and Vantec.

Ohls has an interview with Spode from SpodesAbode.. not just the usual silly questions these things normally have.

Nigel noticed some info on the lack of multiplayer gaming in the much-anticipated Doom III. I dunno, their explanation of why it's been removed doesn't make much sense to me and you have to wonder about how much of the market they're cutting themselves out of. Playing with (only) yourself gets old pretty quickly.

Chaintech had an exhibition in New Orleans recently... HardCoreWare checked it out.

Boky spotted this C64 emulator for certain Nokia phones. How cool is that?

E3, a large entertainment exhibition, was on in the USA a week or so ago. Apparently there was some technology stuff there or something. Seems everyone just took pics of the booth babes, though. :) Lots of links to pics here. TheTechZone were kind enough to tell us how they got their pics. All I can say is, whoever is organising next year's Sydney PC Show, take note!

OCClubCanada have a guide to making your very own rheobus.

Xbit have an article about production technologies involved in the modern semiconductor industry.
