Corsair Obsidian 800D review - best Chassis evah ?
By Hilbert Hagedoorn, November 6, 2009 - 8:40 PM - 0 Comments


 

Corsair Obsidian 800DToday a review on what we consider to be the near perfect PC chassis. Corsair has a reputation to deliver products in the somewhat more high-end region, they set the bar really high when it comes to enthusiast hardware and tend to really think things through. As such, when the first ideas started to float in the coffee room in a building about a Corsair Chassis, the R&D team put together some great minds and did not at all look at building a chassis, no, they very likely reversed roles; what would you guys like to see or need when building your dream chassis?

Their first ever PC chassis is called the Obsidian 800D, and it is without any shame I dare to state that this is among the best ever PC cases I personally have ever tested. Yes, this chassis is marvelous.

Phenom II X4 965 BE revision C3 review
By Hilbert Hagedoorn, November 4, 2009 - 6:06 PM - 0 Comments


 

AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black EditionAMD today updates their most high-end processor to a new revision, the Phenom II X4 965 BE processor with stepping C3 -- and this new model is all about energy efficiency. The revised Phenom II X4 965 BE processor has not only a much better TDP (peak Wattage at 125W coming down from 140W) but overall much better power management thanks to the fact that hardware C1E is now implemented in the CPU, allowing the processor to  for faster switching of power states and makes it more efficient. Typically with such a feature enforced it lower performance a little, but... with a proper BIOS AMD claims there's no real impact on performance. Oh and this thing just overclocks insane !

The AMD OverDrive 3.1 application was designed to be a utility the provides the ability to maximize the capability, flexibility, and adjustability of the AMD chipset products. It allows user to tune parameters to ensure system stability, optimize performance, and control cooling/acoustic characteristics. AMD's free tweak and overclocking suite is called OverDrive. One of our editors once stated 'AMD OverDrive is the work of the Devil'. And he meant that in the most respectful way. I agree, the software is diabolical, dark evil... very good.

NVIDIA CEO surprised it took so long to sue Intel
By Hilbert Hagedoorn, November 7, 2009 - 7:06 AM - 1 Comments


 

NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang said he was unsurprised by the new antitrust suit Intel is facing in the US:

"Where there's smoke there's probably fire. It blows my mind that's it's taken this long," Huang said in an interview Thursday, just after the graphics chipmaker posted solid fourth-quarter earnings. Nvidia competes with Intel in the PC graphics chip market.

"Even bribes and kickbacks can't stop somebody from buying our graphics processors," he said, referring to the allegations made in the lawsuit.

When contacted, Intel had no comment.

"Tactics good for AMD are tactics good for Nvidia," he added. "We have far superior products to Intel, that's how we survive by innovating far ahead of (Intel)."

Nvidia is locked in a legal battle with Intel, preventing Nvidia from making chipsets for Intel's "Nehalem" Core i series of chips--the lastest and greatest line of processors from Intel. Nvidia's Ion chipset--used in Apple MacBooks and Hewlett-Packard Netbooks, for example--has been very successful.

Huang also commented on the wave of next-generation tablets and media pads expected to hit the market next year, such as the rumored Apple tablet. Nvidia is already working with device makers who will use its Tegra chip in these designs next year.

"I think that's going to be the next big form factor," he said. "More and more people that use the iPhone would like to have a bigger iPhone. And the fact that 4g is coming--20 megabits per second. What can't you do. I think this (market) space is about to go nuts," he said.

"I really think we're on the cusp of our second personal computer revolution," he said. More at CNET.

Gigabyte announces round 1 winners BMIYD competition
By Hilbert Hagedoorn, November 7, 2009 - 1:35 AM - 0 Comments


 

Gigabyte is pleased to announce that round one of the Beat Me If You Dare competition ended on October 31st. GIGABYTE would like to extend our congratulations to the winners, whose prizes will be doubled since they were successful in beating the top scores benchmarked by the GIGABYTE in-house OC team.

To kick off the contest, GIGABYTE’s in-house OC team set a new 3DMark Vantage world record with an overall score of 16877 and an incredible GPU score of 15297 with a blazing fast GPU clock of 1100 MHz and memory clock of 1400 MHz. It was then up to the contestants to see if they had the nerve and skill to beat the GIGABYTE record. There were 6 contestants in round one who were able to get their GPU clock over 1100 MHz. Mr. Jon Sandström from Sweden, using a GIGABYTE GTX 260 Super Overclock Edition, successfully conquered the bottleneck and pushed his GPU clock up to an astounding 1200 MHz.

The NVIDIA GTX 260 has proven time and time again to be an amazing overclocking GPU, continually allowing users to break and set higher and higher new world records. Thanks in part to the Beat Me If You Dare competition and all the overclockers’ amazing work, the GTX 260 world record ceiling has possibly been reached with Hipro5 from Greece setting a new 3DMark GPU world record at 16658 with GIGABYTE GTX 260 Super Overclock Edition. GIGABYTE would like to congratulate all contestants for their amazing scores.

Round One Winners:

  1. First place: Hipro5 from Greece
  2. Second place: Aristidis & Stelios from Greece
  3. Third place: James Trevaskis from Australia
  4. Fourth place: Mike Graf from U.S.A.
  5. Fifth place: Jon Sandström from Sweden

Asus Announces Cheap USB 3.0 + SATA 6.0 Card
By Hilbert Hagedoorn, November 6, 2009 - 8:19 PM - 0 Comments


 

The era of USB 3.0 will soon be upon us. Devices are slowly being talked about, and compatible motherboards being announced. Of course unless you’re planning on building a new machine in the near future, you’ll either have to live with your old 2.0 ports, or buy an add-on card. Asus has announced such a card that not only gives you two of the latest USB ports, but also a pair of SATA 6.0 ports.

The card allows you to experience the full power of both new standards, provided you have a free PCI-E port on your motherboard. Sure, it’s probably still a little early to really start thinking about USB 3.0, but this is a case where I really don’t see an issue with it. The card is only $30 (USB 2.0 cards were at least twice as much when it came out) and you’re going to get SATA 6.0 ports to boot. According to Asus, the card will be out “soon.”


  

 


AMD GPU Shortage to affect vendors
By Hilbert Hagedoorn, November 6, 2009 - 8:16 PM - 1 Comments


 

Guru3D.com ImageIt is widely know that TSMC has issues with the production of their 40nm and 55nm nodes, affecting both ATI and NVIDIA. This is the main reason why the new Radeon HD 5000 series product are getting harder to find (which drives prices upwards).

Advanced Micro Devices is said to be facing problems with supplying its latest Radeon graphics processing units to several PC vendors. Supplying issues are reportedly affecting PC vendors that are consequently forced to delay their mass shipment scheduled by about two months to the first quarter of 2010.

This recent report is in accordance with several other rumors that have recently surfaced on the Internet, with regard to the GPU shipment issues that AMD has with its latest GPUs.

Digitimes recently already reported that Advanced Micro Devices is said to be facing problems with supplying its latest Radeon graphics processing units to several PC vendors, according to sources in the know as regards the matter. Said supplying issues are reportedly affecting PC vendors that are consequently forced to delay their mass shipment scheduled by about two months to the first quarter of 2010. This recent report is in accordance with several other rumors that have recently surfaced on the Internet, with regard to the GPU shipment issues that AMD has with its latest GPUs.
