Our recent 5.1 headphone giveaway has finished - congrats to svirax who won them. Now we have some video-card coolers up for grabs, again from HDAudioVisual.. and this time it's even easier to win!
Paul spotted an interesting article about grid computing on eWeek. Likewise, research institutions, many facilitated by the San Diego Supercomputer Center, have been using grids to explore the galaxy, predict earthquakes and help cure diseases.
PCStats have an introduction to FB-DIMM memory article. FB-DIMM memory (short for Fully-Buffered Dual Inline Memory Module) is a variant of standard DDR2 memory designed for server applications where both large amounts of memory and memory co-ordination and accuracy at high speeds are essential.
Hexus took a closer look at Crossfire, the ATI multi-videocard solution.
Nick spotted this wooden iPod mod that turned out looking pretty cool.
Seems iPods have become the trendy-shoes of the 2000's, with people stealing and even killing for them, thanks Wessam.
MadShrimps have a DIY watercooling project posted. Guest writer djivesp shows us how he build a complete watercooling setup from scratch, using parts from his old Toyota, and making himself water blocks for CPU, northbridge and his NV6800LE, the last one features 3-barbs and packs quite a punch.
PenStarSystems have their thoughts posted about the AMD-Intel lawsuit.
Phoronix compared Venice and San Diego cored AMD CPUs.
From Dinuc, in our Photography forum: There is a Melbourne photo shoot coming up in a couple of weeks time. Details here.
The Folding battle continues, as Draffa notes in this thread: On the 30/6/05 (US time) OCAU extended it's record for the biggest one-day total to almost 495,000. Unfortunately for us, [H] put us in the shade a bit by being the first team to crack 500,000, managing 504,500. Nice work. We're still in the lead, so consider joining Team 24 if you're up for a fight. :)
