AGEIA have released an extreme physics mod pack for UT3. AGEIA PhysX owners will get the unique opportunity to tear up Unreal Tournament 3 through some exclusive and revolutionary new features never before seen in PC games! Bit-Tech have posted their thoughts here, and meanwhile, AMD may buy AGEIA if the price is right.

Engadget have been hands-on with the Optimus Maximus OLED keyboard. We've gotta say we're pretty impressed, the build seems as solid as a rock, the screens are crazy bright and all the glossy keys catch the light just right.

TechReport ponder the problem with enthusiast platforms in the wake of AMD's Spider launch. TechARP have a technology report on the new platform too.

Dan ponders what alternatives to Gigabyte's i-RAM exist. Gigabyte's i-RAM Solid State Drive is more than TWO YEARS old now, but it still doesn't seem to have any competition. That may explain why the price hasn't bloody dropped, either.

Digit-Life looked at some inexpensive AMD CPU coolers. The market of budget coolers for AMD processors is still saturated despite growing manufacturing costs, high competition, price erosion, and serious pressure from boxed CPUs. Thus it's time to review some new products, namely 16 coolers from ASUS, Foxconn, GlacialTech, Thermaltake, and Titan.

From Statts: The Classic Adelaide is regarded as one of the greatest road rallies for classic and marque cars in the world. It runs through the hills surrounding Adelaide and includes a twilight Prologue event in the streets of Adelaide (GP/Clipsal 500 circuit). It runs from 21-25 of November. Lots of great pics so far in the thread, with plenty more coming over the weekend!

Quite a few people are grumpy about the price of COD4 on Steam almost doubling overnight, info here and here. Still - it means that for exactly the same digital download, we're being slugged nearly twice the price of the Americans.

Meanwhile, from CeeJay: Psyconauts, one of the best games EVER, in my opinion, is FREE to play on Gametap until the end of the year. Hmm, you have to download some player thingy it seems.
