Jason over at Mikhailtech has cut a hole in the side of his PC and fitted a 5" LCD screen . Now he can watch movies and still have his apps full screen.

Bonus miniature screen stuff as ICEHardware shows you how to build an external screen for your PC to show you what MP3 you've got playing. It seems like the kind of thing that any self-respecting, music-loving electronics buff should have a go at.

Die-hard 3D Studio Max users might want to take a look at X-bit Lab's investigation into just which graphics card suits the software best. Not an easy choice.

More high-end graphics coverage, this time in German, from 3Dchips where the investigation is into ATI's Radeon 9700 Pro turned into a SoftFireGL X1. That's tricking the card into thinking it is a FireGL X1. Seems like the drivers have a way to go though.

Dan's Data has added some new coolers to the big list of processor cooling solutions. We could do a poor joke about fans heading over there but we're not going to. Oh. µ
