Apple is testing AMD chips claim

A REPORT AT AMD Zone points to evidence of secret Apple testing of AMD chips. The story points to web site, Mac Edition Now there's a story, if true.

Meanwhile, though the hottest review on the web may well be Fudo's look at the Sapphire-ATI Pentium 4 board over here, there's plenty other stuff to keep you amused and enthralled as the nights draw in.

Mind you, the days are no doubt lengthening down under, where the New Zealand overclockers have been mauling a selection of five KT400 motherboards. They look at offerings from Abit, Asus, Gigabyte and Soltek over here.

Some PC3200 memory slips nicely into this little mix. Over here is OCWorkbench's look at some Corsair XMS 3500 C2 RAM. Icrontic goes for a slice of 256MB OCZ PC3200 Revision 2 technology over here. While Cluboverclocker has a slice of Corsair of its own here.

Meanwhile, HardOCP has another look at a board to slip your 3.06GHz Pentium 4 into - MSI's 845PE Max2 - over here.

VR-Zone say they've managed to enable Hyper-Threading on P4 2.4GHz just one day before the launch of the P4 3.06GHz HT CPU. This proves, they say, that HT has been present in the Northwood processors for quite some time but was disabled by the BIOS. Wibble over here.

The guys also demonstrate how AMD could keep a nose in front in the Gigahurtz stakes by overclocking a T'Bred XP 2700+ to 3.3GHz. That's over here.

Mod your rocks off with Kingwin's KT-436-WM case over at Anandtech here.

Cool it with a watery set up. The Viper shows you how over here.

Or check out Dan's "gigantic CPU cooler comparison" which, he says, has sprouted a couple more entries. The Cool Tank Breeze, for your P4 is over here. While the Twin Breeze, is here.

And make sure you don't blow the whole thing up, by using FanStorm's Deluxe Controller shown off by KEP Technologies here.

You may have to throw some Nanotherm Silver XTC Thermal Grease into the mix. 3dvelocity will tell you if the stuff's any good or not if you care to wibble this a-way.

Elsewhere, WhiningDog.NET assess one possible way of archiving analogue video on the Windows platform, they say, over here.
