3D PROFESSOR DISCLOSED details a new Quadro card from Nvidia. Knowing Nvidia's history in the professional area of 3D graphics world, expect nothing short of spectacular. Secondly, he went on to test how is DAAMIT fairing in new surroundings, combining Athlon 64 X2 6000+ and FireGL board with MSI nForce chipset (K9N Diamond).

AMD Zone posted a review of AMD's 65nm Brisbane core, this time in the form of Athlon 64 X2 4000+. Chris went on to see the 4000+ fares against the fastest non-Quaddie Athlon 64 FX, the FX-62.

In order to have decent memory bandwidth with Socket AM2/775, you need to get fast performing memory. RBmods tested SuperTalent DDR2-1000 PC2-8000 memory kit and checked the performance in several usual clock speeds for the memory of today.

On the other hand, Germans got back things into reality with their review of Asrock ALiveNF5-eSata2+, motherboard based on entry-level nForce 520 chipset. Legion Hardware came up with Seriously Easy Overclocking Guide for Intel Core 2 Duo E6400. It seems that you do not need to shell out 400 dollars for a motherboard in order to overclock the hell out of one potent CPU.

On the other side, old friend Koen from Hardware.Info went in depth with upcoming concepts, AMD's Torrenza and Intel's CSI. We are only missing VIA's Lost or even Heroes. Even though VIA looks like a patient in Grey's Anatomy (US TV overload).

Virtual-Hideout tested a device from a new brand, Pertelian. The X2040 LCD proved an interesting alternative to classical messaging devices, even though you might just say get a crackberry and get over it.

XSReviews reviewed Kylie's Ratpadz XT mousepad. We had troub;e with the quote: "Now they are trying to get into the mouse pad sector with their Ratpadz range", Hasn't Ratpadz has been on the market for years now?
