Mike has start an unofficial OCAU Tribes2 tribe. From within tribes2, if you search for either [Zalahuk] (that's me), or [OCAU], or Overclockers Australia, it should bring up the details of the tribe, and how to join etc. They're keen to get anyone of any level to join it..

Found some cool airbrushed cases out there, from people do who it for a fee. More in the sci-fi section.

VIA's P4X266 is now out, this is their P4 DDR motherboard chipset. This has been widely anticipated, because people are wondering how the P4 will go with a decent (aka, non-RAMBUS) memory subsystem. HardOCP are first up with a review this morning, followed closely by AnandTech, Digit-Life, VIAHardware and FiringSquad.

There's a German article here about a home-made aircooler that apparently beats every commercial one they've compared it to..

Interesting technical thread here from Chris Nolan, regarding the improvement in the memory bandwidth for AMD CPUs from using SSE instructions, available in a beta version of Sandra.

Confused about HDD terminology? This guide might come in handy.

Apparently ATI are gaining market share back from NVIDIA, thanks tn1.

News from Wokket: There's a badass llama that protects sheep and a pigeon has been grounded after smuggling drugs.
