[H]ard|OCP have examined the BlueCooling BTMS watercooling system in some depth. Worth checking out, as they compare it to so many competing products it becomes more of a waterblock roundup than a single-product review. Just as well, given what they think of the product in question. :)
There's a car/bike cruise in Brisbane early next month.
Apparently there's another Matrix Reloaded trailer out, thanks Tiberio.
TheInq have some Intel CPU roadmaps posted, here and here. Apparently Intel's 3GHz chip is coming soon(er), thanks Mr Chilled. More info here, thanks Rage.
A roundup of roundups: PCStats have an Business Oriented Integrated Motherboard roundup.. lots of motherboards you probably don't want, unless you're like me and can't remember the last time you played a 3D game on your PC. There's probably a card you do want to own buried in Digit-Life's GF4 Titanium roundup, tho. Or perhaps DDR SDRAM (OCNZ) or New Radeons (Guru3D) are more your style.
Digit-Life also have an article on reverberation, for the audiophiles.
Info about Longhorn, the next Windows version, here.. thanks Karl.. and here's me still using Win2K.
Hexus take a PC and make it silent.. not by unplugging it. :)
Still time to win y'self a flight sim game over on 3DAvenue. Or, win yourself a new Holden by getting a few SMS's, thanks mjcrow.
Kasar spotted info on WinPE, which is a minimal Win32 subsystem with limited services, based on the Windows XP Professional kernel running in protected mode. It contains the minimal functionality you need to run Windows Setup, pull an operating system from a network share, automate basic processes, and perform hardware validation.
AllTechBox want to tell you how to protect your precious components from static electricity, or how to make an emergency win98 boot disk.
GreyWolfe says that this is a pretty good gun controller too, been around for a while but recently updated.
Creative is bragging about his 3DMark score again in the forums.. still, 14k's not too shabby.
X-Bit have a new HDD benchmark.. FC-Test.
Adam spotted the future of cars (maybe) on Wired.
Apparently we're all going to die! Again. Big rock coming to kill us all, thanks papillion and OZEight.
