OCAU News |
A quick 'wish you well' to my sis who is currently at hospital, instead of her uni graduation ceremony.
First up some gaming news. IGN have posted up some pitcures of a Halo 3 map. They've also had a bit of a play around with Guitar Heroes III for the XBox 360. Meanwhile over at Bit-Tech, they've posted write-ups of their had hands-on previews of Crysis and Blacksite: Area 51.
Those looking to improve the graphics performance of their nVidia based machine, might be interested in NGO's latest optimised nVidia driver. For the ATi crowd, Tweaktown have done an ATi Catalyst 7.8 Performance Analysis.
Shadownman sent in a couple links that might interest some peeps. Englishrussia.com always provides some funnies, but I found these two may be of interest to OCAU urban explorers and car enthusiasts. Thanks mate, just bookmarked the site myself :)
TechwareLabs have posted Part I of their Phantasmic Case modification guide. From the mind of the modder who brought you the SpiderMan 3/Venom Case mod comes a new creation. This time Jason attempts to customize a case that integrates some very dramatic elements to create a unique effect. The result is a modification that even the ladies should like. If you don't want to go to that much effort, maybe give your current case a bit of a clean using Technibble's guide.
Here's an interesting article posted on eCoustics.com entitled Will Suing YouTube Fix Anything?. From the article: Lawsuits will not solve the problem, which is: there is no easy way to identify who owns which rights in and to most pieces of music and there is no easy way to get a quote and pay them.
Essential for any hardware enthusiast, is TechARP's Desktop CPU Comparison Guide which has just been updated to revision 3.5. Currently covering over 590 desktop CPUs, this comprehensive comparison will allow you to easily compare up to 18 different specifications for each and every CPU.
Doc Overclock has written up in an editorial regarding BAPCo's SYSmark 2007. As a reviewer and Editor I rely heavily on the test software used in our daily benchmarking and stability tests. That said it takes a bit of time and effort to learn the in and outs of the testing software and what compatibility issues it may have and how to workaround them. SYSmark from BAPCo has been a staple software program in our test bench almost since we started testing motherboards back in 1999. The SYSmark battery of tests has always been the test software that gave errors however as well and SYSmark 2007 is the worst yet
Just posted on PCStats: Nigerian 419 SCAM: Now the Music Video!? . It was bound to happen, a musician in Nigeria by the name of Nkem Owoh has made a music video and posted it to YouTube about the whole Nigerian 419 Scam thing...
Nokia has recalled a swagful (is that a word?) of Nokia BL-5C batteries. My phone is on that list, wonder if i can score me a new one! Thanks Bern and THELTD.
Finally, i haven't given it a go yet myself but with a name like Bucking Fuggy this has got to be good. Thanks Luke!
