Today's excuse is that I couldn't get onto the net, big dramas with my ADSL connection. Seems to be ok now.. shame I had to pull my 2nd network card out to fix it. Grr! I hate computers.. expect this site to be renamed "Landscape Gardeners Australia" soon. :)
Why is it always the little reviews that attract the most attention? :) The server is chugging away today.. a couple of people pointed out that you can buy pre-made fan RPM/power splitter cables (as described in Wolfy's article from last night).. but where's the fun in that?
Who wants to win a broken Radeon? Not me.
Dan's compared two socket370 motherboards that are almost completely dissimilar. DDR vs SDR and all that..
Been thinking about getting your own communications company? Soc pointed out that there's one going for a song on Ebay.. :)
I thought the "Creative Labs 3DBlaster GeForce2 Ultra 64MB" we reviewed had a long name.. Digit-Life have posted a Gainward CARDEXpert GeForce2 MX400 Golden Sample VIVO TwinView (head explodes) .. review. It's a video card.
We linked this VP6 review earlier but Chris Nolan noted it in a little more detail: A good review. I never thought the VP6 could reach 160MHz with all the talk of instability at high FSB speeds in the 2CPU forums. He has very good CPU's though (almost perfectly batch-matched SL4CH's). Wasn't tieing (I think) Vid[3] to Vss discovered in our own sadly missing forums (either P3V4X or CUSL2, I don't remember exactly). Hmm, not sure. A lot of good stuff came out of those two forums, tho.
According to a friendly newsmonkey at Icrontic, Intel's Itanium was launched today. Hmm, I thought we'd already seen a launch for it.. too many product launches to keep up with these days. Anyway, info here on Intel's site, here on ZDNet and here on CNet. SGI are first to announce an SMP Itanium workstation.. Icrontic have an article of their own on the technology.
Reviews:
ThermalRight SK6 socket cooler on ClubOC.
IceMat mousing surface / cheese platter on CHW.
Seagate Barracuda 180GB drive on xbitlabs.
JustCooler FA-100 Fan Check on TacoNuts.
AVGS System Cooler on RipNet.
