I had nothing to do, so Agg made me do the news. Ah, he's a true supervisor at heart! :)

AMDMB would like to report that the A7V133 has a new BIOS. And I would like to tell you that they told me! Lots of other BIOS links there too.

Get more free speed out of your K6-3! And let's face it, if you still have a K6, free is something you'll really appreciate, if not require. Thanks to eyOr at OverclockedHardware.

ReviewZone have Part 2 of their A-Z of Overclocking. It is quite informative, though I'm not sure I agree with the title of the article. I went looking for what they had listed under "Q" but that's not how it works.

More than you ever needed to know about the Creative GeForce2 MX can be found here, courtesy of Guru3d.

Want to mod your Gorb? Of course you do, it's not doing much of a job in its current form. How does 3 degrees better cooling sound? Check out Spode's Gorb mod article for details.

OverclockerCafe wish to report that their download area is back up. Some nice Detonator drivers there, though that version 10.50 scares me.

Digit-Life have 3 new articles up. An Interview with Reinhard Fabritz from AMD, a look at the Asus Terminator (J project), and a review on the GlobalWin FOP38 and WBK38 coolers.

Want a dose of 1935 alternate reality? Check out GlideUnderground's review of Crimson Skies. It's a combat flight sim type game with an interesting storyline.

PC Hardware have reviewed the MSI 815EP Pro motherboard. Here's a bit:
"The main feature which attracts me at this board is stability in extreme conditions. Price is important because most expensive Pentium III must at least have quality motherboards for a lower price than AMD processors. i815EP must be regarded like the real successor of BX because with onboard video it's clear that it would have been impossible to conquer the market.". Read all about it here. Where is .ro anyway? Romania?

Are you tired of screwing your existing PC case? Would you be interested in a little screwless number? It's even got 2 front USB ports for your added pleasure. Check out CompUSA's review here. Hmm, it looks like the funky new IBM and Dell style cases I've seen recently. They also review the Radio Shack (Tandy in Aus. probably sell it) 4" cooling fan here.

PC Tech Extreme have 3 reviews up. The GlobalWin Istorm here, the Enermax EG451P-VE 431W power supply here, and the Logitech WingMan RumblePad here. I wonder if anyone in Australia are stocking those Enermax's yet? They're damned fine units.

Adrian's Rojak Pot have some news on some upcoming Abit boards (on the main page). I think the word "Senfu" is funny, and I don't know why. Adrian has "a small correction to the picture and information on the modification of the Senfu thermometer" here. I'm also informed of something I can't understand (New GAPI (Game API) Benchmark 1.50B results) and whose link is broken, so I'll leave that one out.

More news later, I have to be going home soon!
