Quad SLI mobo to power 10 monitors

HW UPGRADE has a nice Italian review of the diminutive Toshiba Libretto U100, small but thick. Powered by a Pentium ULV processor with 60GB HDD and 512MB memory, it has a piccolo 7.2-inch monitor, small enough for WXGA resolutions. It is also well endowed when it comes to removable media and wireless connection.

The latest OCZ memory modules are tested at Hothardware. The OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400 Platinum EB parts are high speed RAM with low latencies. But the most interesting is on the outside. it offers integrated copper spreaders, lifetime warranty, toll free support and Extended Voltage Protection coverage. They mostly come second behing the Corsair XMS2 while being slightly cheaper.

Fancy buying a digital camera from Christmas, have a look at the 9-page review from Trusted Reviews for the new Kodak Easy Share V550, their top of the range slimline 5MP digital camera. Very small, with a 3x optical zoom and a 2.5-inch LCD monitor, it does offers more than the competition but comes at a price as well.

You remember that Quad Card SLI motherboard, Tweaktown has some more details about it. Apparently, it will be based on the new Nforce 4 SLI X16 chipset. They have a photo where the board was used to create a ten-monitor setup. You would also be able to disable some slots in order to up the remaining ones to X16. This bodes very well for Gigabyte that has been gathering strength in the innovation sector.

That particular casing was included some time back in our column. The Thermaltake Taichi case stands on its own when it come to style and quality. First of all, it has two doors rather than one - then at $400 and nearly 20Kg, it is expensive and heavy for an aluminium super case. But you can't beat it for space as well as cooling capacity and kewlness.

Our pal at AMDzone comes with a review of the Leadtek Winfast PX7800GTX THD MyViVo Extreme. Leadtek is known for its long names but this one rules them all. This dual slot 7800GTX card comes with a huge heatsink, a large fan and four heatpipes. It is overclocked out of the box and AMDzone got to overclock it even further to 538/1380. Check the benchmarks to see what it does to your games. µ
