Lifting the lid on AMD's 333MHz FSB

We'll kick off with Nico's investigations over at TecChannel where he takes a look (in German, naturlich) at the implications of AMD's bus route compared with that of Intel. That's here.

There's more conjecture, er analysis, over at Lost Circuits, where they go "a bit behind the curtains of the 166 MHz bus and its validation." Wibble ye hither. The guys there say they've spent a year testing 166MHz FSB kit and are now ready to tell the world what they found out.

The Tweakers that took over the asylum cast a critical eye over Soyo's Dragon Ultra KT333 motherboard over here.

There's a look at Iwill MPX2 Dual Platform thingummy over here.

X-bit labs compares three ATA/133 IDE RAID controllers over here. They also wonder whether VIA's "highly anticipated" Columbia GPU may actually see the light of day this year. Wibble ye in this direction.

Here's a first look at a rare beast, an Opteron fan - FannerTech's Kestrel King-I. Coo! Wibble ye here.

Over at PCPop there's a scary old pic of a bright green Clawhammer box, and various other oddities I fear Babelfishing. Wander hither.

AMDPower has a gander at Albatron's GeForce4 MX440 Vid Card over here. And they manage to overclock it big time.

Monster-Hardware looks at the Thermalright SLK-800. Nice but dear they reckon. Cooly stroll this a-way.

There's some pretty lights over at 8ballshardware. They're here.

There's a look at PCmods Power Down Protector for sharp-suited moderns, er modders over here courtesy of IpKonfig.com.

Dan's been at it again, this time with a thermometer. Oh yes. Lian Li's T-3 and T-3B dual display LCD thermometer modules look nifty, but ain't, he reckons. That's here.

And, er, finally, ViaHardware is revamped. Gone is the old VIA-centric label and in comes Sudhian. Sudhian has been in development since January at a pretty substantial cost, they say. See what they have to offer over here.
