I also have to agree... I think it's more to clear the shelves of the older product. I am sure that many e-tailers still have a whack of Q6600 stock. But, they promised a late Q1 launch... and they really seem to be sticking with it.

I was pondering about the the other night... I was thinking back to just two years ago when I was having a blast overclocking the Corsair 2GB 3500LL-PRO kit... amazed to high-hell that I could reach a stable OC of DDR-540 with 3-3-2-0 timings... It felt like less than a month later, DDR2 was...

SuperPi is just incredibly single-threaded, so having a higher score doesn't mean much. BUT, if single-core frequency is what we are going for, then it could be included. SuperPi just doesn't do much for me. It was far cooler back when single and dual-cores were king, but with the advent of...

I am riding on the fact that it was a bad batch. WHY would there be such a high return rate? I can't piece that one together. It could very well be a problem with the flash chips... I know I've had a few thumb drives just die on me (they were all Corsair Voyagers), but I don't know if that can...

I'd love to see something like that happen as well... I am just not sure how it will be done. For the most part, wireless internet is fine, but overall it's slow. But of course, it's still a massive bump up from dial-up or >1Mbit broadband, so it would be welcomed. Too bad we are going to have...

I am always skeptical when a company like this wants to open up a completely new product line, but these companies are huge because they make good products, so it's unlikely they'd produce something that was crap. Looking forward to seeing them launched though, and I agree Greg, it's insane...

Sure, I'll post about it in tomorrow's news. Three votes from me so far.

I'll conflict with everyone because I like city living. So yeah. The Internet situation in the country is ridiculous though. You'd imagine by now they'd have that situation figured out. I'm sure there are millions of people in this situation.

You will only be contacted if you are the winner. There is no e-mail confirmation for the survey... rather, once the survey is submitted, the last page will tell you that it was successfully submitted. The reason we had everyone verify their e-mail address prior to taking the survey was for...

I have come to the conclusion that picking out a 30-inch monitor is a major ordeal. I have no doubt it would be easier to suck a gumball through a straw, but luckily, I have neither of those things on-hand to test for myself. As I mentioned in the Gateway XHD3000 review thread, I need to...

According to DigiTimes, Gigabyte is going to begin creating their own line of "high-end" PC accessories later this year, which would include keyboards and mice. The first keyboard is due to launch for $113USD, so high-end might be a fitting title. How long before we see something like this...

From our front-page news: Sure, it's no big surprise. In fact, we knew this would happen, but it's cooler when it's official. The upcoming GT5 Prologue has hit over one million pre-orders in Europe. From what I gather, pre-orders from other PAL regions are included in this number. An impressive...

From our front-page news: According to industry-tracking web site DigiTimes, AMD have revised their roadmap to include a few new models, all of which should launch in the coming weeks. The Phenom 9050 models will include the 9850, 9750, 9650, 9550 and the 9150. Although the 9850 was initially...

From our front-page news: Up to now, SSD seemed like an unstoppable technology. The drives are super-fast, ultra-light and incredibly durable. But according to a "large computer manufacturer", return rates on their notebooks equipped with such drives are as high as 20 - 30%. This is staggering...

From our front-page news: The auction that felt like it was never going to end, has finally ended. The FCC-sponsored auction of the 700MHz spectrum hit a staggering $19.5 billion, far exceeding original expectations. As Ars Technica points out, $19 billion was hit in early February, so the last...

Woo hoo, grats :D

Err, I meant XII, my bad. http://www.sisoftware.co.uk/index.html?dir=dload&location=sware_dl_all&langx=en&a= We'd upgrade it with each new major version.

I'll check out that Lightsmark tomorrow sometime. I'd rather not include SuperPi as it's rather useless. It's a single-threaded application and in no way shows off the strength of a system. In addition, it's not that optimized... and it actually takes longer to compute Pi than others do. Right...

sbrehm's almost due for a title change! *eggs him on to get the one post*

From our front-page news:We posted last Monday about the possibility of Intel's 45nm desktop Quad-Cores hitting e-tailers, and as X-bit predicted, it did happen. What we didn't expect though was the fact that the allocations would be incredibly tight, so as a result, it's as though they were...
