Lots of Pre-Computex updates coming in from various companies. Should be interesting to see what actually gets released at the show!

Intel have unveiled their new Nehalem (a.k.a. Core i7) based 8 core Xeon. HotHardware has lots more info about it. Hardware Zone also has some info about them along with the new Atom/Pine Trail platform

Tweaktown went to Taipei and visited IKONIK's headquarters where they were shown their new range of cases for 2009. Some interesting features that might be worth checking out.

techPowerup has some interesting details on a new ASUS video card in the works. A Dual GTX285 based card with 4GB of ram. Should be quite the beast if it hits the market.

iXBT have done a fairly indepth article about what fsb/memory speeds are the best with Core 2 based CPU's. Read it here. Worth checking out in my opinion.

This is interesting for those who like watercooling. Looks like we are going to start seeing 140mm fan Radiators. Blackice Extreme GT 560 is a quad 140mm fan radiator(link is machine translated). 60cm long though so not going to fit in/on many cases.

This mad man decided to use a 45 year old modem to access the internet. Feel that 300 Baud (~ 0.0003 MBit) power!

HotHardWare spent some time playing around with Windows 7 RC and some SSD's to see if there was much of a performance difference. Read it here.

Microsoft are apparently launching a new search engine "Bing" which they are calling a "Decision Engine". Here is the official site and a news article about it.

Mikloise sent in a very cool link. 25 Cool Movie Locations And How To Visit Them In Google Street View.

SKymaster sent in a very amusing one where Mitsubishi in New Zealand are offering a Free Goat with the purchase of a Triton ute.
