Riva TNT2 card benchmarked

Mb fired two reviews at us. The first is a mega review of the Sony PSP console. Marcus, the reviewer was more than overwhelmed and felt that the PSP might possibly be the first console replacement. Only faults found concerned the quality control. One of the most compelling gadgets they've seen though. Budget and LCD monitors have finally come to meet each other as the Dang brothers of FS review eight budget LCDs. 17-inch LCDs for $250 are on ther way and quality is nothing short of surprising.

Phoronix ponders on the state of Linux nVidia Overclocking as they tackle this problem with the help of NVClock. They tried and tested four graphics card including an old venerable Riva TNT2 card whch was overclocked raching a whopping 14FPS under UT2K3. But they did test other cards like the 6800GT, the 5900XT and the 6600GT as well.

Custom PC checks the now better priced Real Machines RX6. It is built around an eye pleasing reddish Kloss case. Apart from the superb external appearance, Windows XP MCE2005 and the cool Klipsch speakers, it offers nothing more than other competitors. Check it out if you want a PC with style.

LanAddict tests the Albatron PC6600GT card. That's it. It is a middle of the range 125MB DDR3 equipped machine what comes with the strict minimum at a good price. After four pages, the conclusion isn't really surprising. Good overclocker and good price. Yawn.

The PalmOne Zire 72 is under review at TechIMO. Are PDA's going to die because of cellphones or get transformed into new PMP - portable media players? Except for a rather ridicule battery life, the Zire 72 provides with good features like price, expansion slot, video capture, mini USB and bluetooth support.

Doomedpc tests the Xpertvision Geforce 6600 card which comes with 128MB DDR 128-bit memory. Fab, the reviewer, found it for £80 only and was very much pleased with it, even though there was no overclocking involved. The x700 tested might be slightly faster but then, it is more expensive.

Pureoverclock received the new Server Chassis from Enermax, the CS718 and immediately tests it. With a BTX-inspired approach, you get a cooler interior, it even coems with a wind tunnel and with loads of space inside and excellent build quality. Letdowns were small but irritable though. µ
