YET ANOTHER performance analysis of the latest Catalyst drivers, this time from tweaktown, and performed by Shane Baxtor is up on the world wide web. The version 5.2 is tested in a series of benchmarks as usual. The conclusion is unsurprisingly very good.

Mikhail brings the Kingston HyperX Ultra Low Latency PC3200 to its labs. See more on hyperX on yesterday's interview of Kingston PR. Mr. Ivanenkov is pretty much impressed by the performance delivered by these chips.

Four reviews from Arctic Squad, from Finland. The first review is the Antec Neo Power 480w which shows how important a good and powerful PSU is to a performing PC. And Antec does not skip on accessories. Arctic Squad also reviews four motherboards which use older 865/875 chipsets with the newer Socket T and compares their performance. DFI, Asus, Epox and ABit are present.

Next on the list is the Sharkoon Silvation which is a case including a Windtunnel and an innovative internal design clearly destined to impress geeks. Finally, the Thermal Take SViking VA4000BWS is yet another casing which should prove to be popular due to numerous characteristics like a tool box or a 120mm fan.

Still another casing, this time from Dansdata. The Silverstone TJ06 is actually some kind of hybrid, copying some features, like the motherboard layout and the duct cooling but still accepting the normal ATX components.

Cooltechzone gives us a slight taste of overclocking through the BFGTech 6800 OC which takes the 6800 and just slightly overclocks it. See the results here.
