We've got a number of tools in our armoury [Not weapons? Ed.] - Hazel Lewis - UK government minister
PCPERSPECTIVE came with yet another podcast, going in detail what is going on with now delayed Crysis, DDR3 memory, Ray-Tracing and other shenanigans from the world of hardware and software. Ryan was at IDF last week, so expect a lot of IDF-related newsbits inside.
ComputerShopper.com reviewed Gateway One. This all-in-one system from Gateway has some interesting features, but it can hardly expect that it will dent sales of Apple iMac.
Bit-Tech.net came up with a clash of two titans in DDR3 memory space, this time bell told about Kingston and OCZ. Kingston sent its KHX11000D3LLK2/2G modules, or the name just made for breaking a tongue, while OCZ sent its PC3-10666 in Platinum Edition.
BigBruin.com published a review of OCZ modules alone, but this time it was PC3-10666 Gold Edition, basically a pair of 1GB modules clocked at 1.33 GHz.
Elite Bastards reviewed Asus Xonar D2 sound card, first board to seriously challenge dominance of Creative X-Fi in the add-in board space.
Eventually, we found a review of Inno3D video card. This time, time came for 8600GT iChill, a factory overclocked board.
Oddly enough, we got news from Benchmark Reviews about a review of new product from Tagan. This time, it seems like every power supply manufacturer is entering the chassis space and vice versa, since Tagan's CS-EL Diablo Mid Tower ATX case ended up on a test bed.
Overclockers Club published a review of Arctic Cooling Accelero S1 + Turbo module. Long story short, this is a passive cooler for mid-range graphic cards with a dual-fan module that should cool down higher-end cards from mainstream segment.
Phoronix published an interesting article touching the subject of SLI under Linux. This subject was a taboo until recently, and now with new drivers things are looking rather different... or not.
