A TAIWANESE SITE claims to have benchmarked the 478 Prescott chip, in an article you can find here in Chinese. The site also gives prices for Intel chips, and prints a page from Intel's latest roadmaps which we can verify is authentic, because it is similar to the last one we saw in the Porcupine, a few weeks back. Intel is hoping to fix the Prescott power glitch, sooner rather than later.

Bjorn 3D has some screenshots of Lock on Modern Air Combat, and you can find them right here.

Meanwhile, over at Cooltechzone, there is a review of some memory from OCZ. You can find that here.

Hardware Zoom has a review of a Zalman 400 watt power supply unit on its pages. This, apparently, is its first venture into the PSU kingdom. That's here.

Continuing on the enthusiast trail, we note that IP Konfig has reviewed a heatsink from Swiftech. It puts it through its paces on this pages here.

Ah yeah. And at Datafuse there's a review of a heatsink which is causing some excitation. The Thermalright thingie review is here.

Keyboards. We all need them. Speaking at your PC using a headset and a microphone is tiresome. Go to Ohl's place to read about the EZ-7000 and the FOLD-3000 keyboards, here.

Just because we screwed the L'INQ to Ohl's place first time round, here's another piece the site is running on the EJL Radial XP heatsink.

David Ross at Hexus.Net has been burning the midnight oil in Old Taipei, and has come out with a comparison of Opterons and Xeons using the Linux OS. Here.

AMD Zone forum says the Athlon 64FX is smoking at this page. The word smoking is cognate with the Scottish "Lang many yer lum reek", rather than burning peat. AMD Zone has also done some exemplary work on benchmarking the new chips, as you can find out by clicking on its front page. That and the comment is based on Ace's Hardware comparison, which you can find here.

There will be more wibblings this week than last week. Don't forget to email Southpaw McD at the usual email address... µ

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
