Even more AMD AthlonXP 2200+ reviews: AcesHardware and Digit-Life. GotApex have a 2200+ based system reviewed and Arasta spotted some musings about Tbred's bridges, interesting stuff. While on the AMD side of things, Tom notes TheReg saying Hammer may be delayed until 2003.

Arasta also spotted no less than three of IBM's latest achievements (no, not fixing the Deathstar range): nanotech punchcards, fast embedded DRAM and lower power consumption for chips.

Dan's checked out a SuperFlower Case that comes pre-modded with windows, cold cathode and fan controller.. and he's answered some questions from readers.

TheDDRZone went for a wander around the HQ's of chip packager KingPAK and their larger corporate sibling KingMax, manufacturers of memory and other components.

More info on nForce slow PCI writes on Tech-Report.

Fire and Dice is a case-mod project on Virtual-Hideout.

Interesting article about attempts to ban violent video games, thanks again Arasta.

Another soundcard and speaker tweaking guide on TechSpot.

Digit-Life have posted their monthly 3d digest for May 2002.

Win a Modded Case on LittleWhiteDog.
