Just saw "Wild Wild West". It's silly.

Info on a watercooling system here. They call it "Overclocking 101" for some reason but it's not a how-to or anything, just info on one guy's system. Interestingly, it doesn't use a radiator or any fans to cool the water. Crappy photos but the system works so I can't knock them too hard.

HardOCP have taken a look at Abit's Vt6X4 (Apollo Pro 133A motherboard) here.

Firingsquad have checked out the new Asus DDR Geforce.. with 64MB ram!

Apparently Netscape6 will have magic auto-translation stuff built into it (for those of you who can't use Babelfish). So now you can read those "I'm going to crash and close all your open windows" messages in the language of your choice.

Do those Russian guys over at iXBT ever sleep? Jeez. Now they've reviewed the Chaintech Desperado GeForce video card. Desperado? I think something was lost in the translation.. that's even worse than telling people to store their mission-critical data on a Fireball..

PCStats reviewed the Asus S370-133 slocket. It's an FC-PGA capable jobbie. I've got one here, seems ok but I've not stress-tested it much. They've got a little more room between the socket and the slot1 than most, good for sealing, watercooling, peltiers.. you get the picture.

If you make a new GeForce and you want it to sell well, I guess you make a press release titled "World's Fastest GeForce Card".. which Falcon Northwest did here.

Detailed thing on a stick of Hyundai RAM here. As they say, more info than you need to know. Or want to know. Or will ever care about.

Just in case an arts degree wasn't slacking off enough for you, you can now get a degree in playing Quake. Yep, lots of real-world skills there. Still, it'll give you something to chat about with the other guys in the dole queue. :) Reminds me of this. :)

Now we know why all of Aureal's management quit the other day. Because they're whatsit. I want one!

Firingsquad also checked out the P3-650E. Not too impressive an overclock, but not bad.

You could win a buttload of stuff here, if it wasn't for US residents only. That's nice of them. Even nicer to send me the news to post on my website.. (grumble)

Anyway, I'm going down the coast to see my parents this weekend.. so no news until Sunday night I guess.. have a good one guys.
