    Super Talent memory sticks

    The Inq has some shots of what ST had available at Computex, and I have to say they are freaking ugly. However, they have swivel caps, instead of caps you can take off. Of four thumb drives I have had, all four don't wear the cap. After using them so often, the caps don't even want to stay on...

    PS2: Atelier Iris 2 - The Azoth of Destiny

    AI2 is a completely new game, based in a different world than its predecessor. Yet, with its 2D sprites, can this game really stand up to the ever popular 3D games? I think so, and it'll go to prove that 2D is far from dead, and is still just as fun as ever. After reading Jens review here...

    Pictures of top DFI nF5 AM2 board..

    Pictures of top DFI nF5 775 board.. This board has a couple great features that the Ultra-D [and the like] did not have. One of the main features would be the digital PWM, which tends to be more reliable and cuts down on the total caps on the board. One thing I can't say I like at -all- is...

    AM2 Sempron 2800+ OC'ing

    It's chips like these that offer the budget consumer some great overclocking. For a 1.6GHz chip that overclocks easily to 2.4GHz, I'd say that's one superb sub-$100 CPU.

    IBM To Stop Supplying NVIDIA with AGP Bridges

    NVIDIA could be in for a rocky summer thanks to IBM. It's been reported that IBM will no longer make the AGP bridge chip that NVIDIA uses on its entry-level graphics cards. While PCI-Express graphics cards have pretty much taken over in the graphics market, AGP-based solutions are still quite...

    Blizzard goes MMOnly?

    "All Blizzard franchises will become MMOGs." All. They claim they have a model now to develop an MMOG in 3 years for $50 million. WoW cost 50 million euros and took 4 1/2 years. To be honest, I hate that fact. I loved Starcraft and Warcraft single player. To go MMO "only" won't hurt the game...

    Windows Vista Beta 2 Performance Reports

    Thank you, thank you, thank you for finally bringing one of my favorite software programs to Linux. If that wasn't enough, after over a year and half of waiting, they have -finally- have images of where I live. This picture is not from where I live btw. :D

    Who's playing with Vista?

    I've been toying with Vista ever since the Longhorn days, and I can say that things have gotten much better in Beta 2, but they still have a long way to go. I am currently working on a performance report regarding both versions of Vista and WinXP, and I can say that it seems XP has nothing to...

    Spire RockeTeer V 500W Power Supply

    Spire makes power supplies? We didn't realize this until recently, so we were more than happy to give one a run on our test bench. This is obviously a product with gamers in mind thanks to its SLi support. But wait... why only one PCI-E connector? Regarding Greg's review, if you have any...
