Taiwan Exclusive – GeCube Dual GPU Radeon X1650XT Tested

"This week we were given an exclusive opportunity to visit the GeCube office here in Taipei and test out their unreleased, highly anticipated and upcoming Gemini 2 dual GPU Radeon X1650XT graphic card. In the CPU game, everyone is talking about Quad but in the VGA game, Dual cards are on the mind at the moment. According to the product managers and marketing folks from GeCube who we talked with throughout our visit, the product is almost finished and will be ready and for sale early next year – that is, very early January, as long as everything goes to plan. That’s good news as GeCube as well as Gigabyte and ASUS (and the former XGI and probably many others behind closed doors) have tried producing dual GPU graphics cards in the past but they didn’t really turn out as planned."

NZXT Zero Crafted Chassis Review

"Neither flashy nor plain, the Zero weighs in with a whopping 8 fans, seven of which are 120mm! Along with its "ultimate cooling solution" it is dead quiet and is quite an eye catcher without the fancy lights and gizmos that many people hate. NZXT is a new company, established back in 2004, but since then, it has pumped out some very beautiful cases and power supplies designed for the gamer and enthusiast. The company has been rapidly gaining a reputation as one of the best chassis manufacturers out there

Hanns-G HW192D 19" Widescreen LCD Review

“Hanns-G is a relative unknown in the "brand-scape" when it comes to PC monitors and LCD Televisions. The past year however they've been slowly making their presence known through major online retailers. Their pricing is always aggressive, which often leads one to believe there is some sacrifice in quality. As we hope you will discover from the video review, no such sacrifices are taking place here.”

Zalman CNPS9700 LED Low Noise Heatsink Review @ Frostytech.com

"The Zalman CNPS9700 LED is a supersized version of the CNPS9500-series heatsinks we've all come to know so well. Now, there's no point in dancing around the fact that Zalman's CNPS9700 LED is just about the best socket 775 heatsink FrostyTech has tested to date, and among the very best ever on the socket 939/AM2 platform. It's been a while since Zalman produced a heatsink that displayed such admirable thermal qualities, and even more impressive considering the low noise levels... The Zalman CNPS9700 LED is a big copper heatsink, made up of about a hundred 0.2mm copper fins attached at regular intervals to three copper heatpipes that form a figure-eight. The entire heatsink is cooled by one 110mm diameter fan which is internally illuminated with blue LEDs."

Intel Joins the Overclockers – Bad Axe 2 Motherboard


"Today Intel joins overclockers by giving them the option of overclocking on their very own desktop boards and who would have ever thought such a thing? This is definitely a first for the big CPU giant who tried to prevent overclocking by introducing locked multipliers and even removing asynchronous bus clocks in its early PCI Express 915 chips.

Today we have Intel’s D975XBX2 or Bad Axe 2 motherboard in our test labs. This board was originally intended to be the flagship board for the Core 2 Quad. While we did have it to use for the Core 2 Quad, we decided to use our trusty Gigabyte DQ6 for our CPU review, as its proven to overclock to the max. This time we are looking at the board which Intel provided and just to see how well it stacks up to the mother of all Core 2 overclocking boards, the Gigabyte P965 DQ6. "

ASRock AM2XLI-eSATA2 PCIe SLI AMD Athlon 64 Socket AM2 Motherboard Review

"After more than 20 different AMD Socket 939 and Socket 754 Motherboard Reviews andthe recently published AM2 Upgrade report, it's time to test more AMD Socket AM2 boards. To compare all Socket 939, 754 and Socket AM2 motherboards a CPU with the same frequeny was used and just the memory modules were changed to the new 240-pin DDR2 memory. The ASRock AM2XLI-eSATA2 test report shows if this board is good overclockable and if it offers a wide range of features in spite of the low price. In addition, a direct comparison is available for all AMD Athlon 64 Reviews."

Apack Zerotherm CF900 Socket 775 Heatsink Review @ Frostytech.com

"The Zerotherm CF900's Protechnic MGT9212HS-S25 fan has a thermistor attached to a short length of wire coming out of the motor hub, and this plays a crucial role in how the heatsink performs. The thermistor is cleverly located inside a well formed within in the array of copper cooling fins, so it accurately responds to the temperature of the metal, not the internal case air temperature. This enables the Zerotherm CF900 fan to scale its impeller speed as necessary, and cuts down on unnecessary noise. At its slowest speed (800RPM), the 95mm diameter Protechnic fan barely produces 35 dBA noise. At its full speed of 2300RPM, the fan rumbles away with a moderately audible 48.3 dBA."

Generic x1600Pro Crossfire

"ECS has come up with an awesome motherboard packed with lots of extras. ATI’s newest chipset shows that they are headed in the right direction and that performance does not have to be heavy on the wallet. ECS’s reputation for providing decent products at a decent price has just been bumped up a notch to provided great products to enthusiast builders at a great price."
