More Opteron machines appear

THERE'RE MORE Opteron goings on over at AMDZone. They have details of several different machines from Appro after Rob managed to pay them a visit.

AMD64 processors are on the menu at AMDBoard as well. They've just posted details of a Soyo Athlon 64 motherboard. It's based on an Ali chipset.

Design Technica has been projecting movies using a Philips LC6231. It makes a good starter projector and runs at in wide screen making it ideal for playing DVDs too.

There's a nice little AOpen Canterwood motherboard up for review on AsusBoards. They reckon it's a good'un and great value.

All-in-Wonders seem to be all the rage at the moment. 3DXtreme has a 9700 AIW. It's expensive but you get what you pay for. They give it a "perfect ten."

3DVelocity played with a Maxtop case. It has shiny things aplenty and, despite a few rough edges, it gets the thumbs up.

The ever erudite Dan, famous for Dan's Data, has a review of a Via EPIA M10000 system. He really doesn't seem to like it apart from its small size.

OCWorkbench has some details of a new Gigabyte Nforce 2 motherboard on its Chinese news page. It looks like an Athlon version of the Canterwood in many ways. The specs sound good too.

Canterwoods are all everyone is interested in on the Intel motherboard front. If it weren't for the buggy BIOS in this MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R at TechSeekers, you could understand why. µ
