Take-Two announced today that BioShock 2 will be released within the first half of the 2010 calendar year. Three other major releases are planned within that timeframe: Mafia 2, Max Payne 3, and Red Dead Redemption.

Take-Two is reducing its fiscal 2009 guidance to reflect several factors, most significant of which is the movement of the launch of BioShock 2 from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 to fiscal 2010, in order to provide additional development time for the title. Additionally, Take-Two is updating third quarter and fourth quarter fiscal 2009 guidance to reflect reduced sales of catalog products and lower than anticipated initial retailer orders of new releases, due to a retail environment that is proving even more challenging than the Company's previous expectations

Inno3D, known for their lovely products, recently launched the GeForce GTX 295 Platinum Edition, a product that is both classy and feature rich when it comes to the bundled items. This however is revision two of the GeForce GTX 295. The first model was based on two PCBs (two cards) inside one package. It was a very expensive product to make and with the current economy... well something needed to be done. NVIDIA went back to the drawing board and designed a single PCB capable of housing two GPUs.

Definitely worth a deeper look... well you are on Guru3D.com... we take it as deep as it can go. Check out the review right here.

It seems that desktop Lynnfield processors and the P55 chipset will be announced between September 8-11, while three Clarksfield processors will be launched by the end of September or October.

Nexus has introduced the EDGE, a new full-tower case with noise absorption foam. You can check out the full specifications over here.
Motherboards
The Nexus Edge case is a Full-tower big case that fits ATX/Flex ATX/Micro ATX and Full ATX motherboards.

Noise absorption wave foam
The side panels of the Edge case are fully covered with noise absorption wave foam to absorb noises and sounds from the inside of the case.

Stunning front panel
The front panel is from 3mm thick aluminum with three stunning finishes. The right hand side of the front panel has the recognizable aluminum hairline finish and the left hand size has a sand-spray mat finish. And at the edge, where these two different surface treatments come together, has been polished to a mirror finish line.....

Fans
Sure you need good cooling...but you do not want the noise...right? We fitted the Edge with 3 pieces of real silent 14cm (!) case fans. These fans run at 1000 RPM and move a massive amount of air....but all ultra quiet.

Rubber buffering
When you install the power supply of your choice in the Edge case you will notice that you lay the PSU on nice, soft rubber buffers. These buffers prevent resonance and vibration and make sure the PSU has enough room to 'breathe' so the fan speed of the PSU is not influenced by air obstruction.

Filters
At the air intake areas such as at the front 14cm case fan we have positioned some filter parts to keep the dust out of the case. Also at the ventilation and air-intake holes in the bottom of the case there are 2 dust filters.

Toolless
And to keep things nice and simple... HDD's and opticals are fitted toolless.

AMD lately is fighting that 120W barrier and I guess, they just are letting it go. As such AMD is planning to release two new processors next month; the Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition and the Athlon II X4 630.

Report on the web claim these Phenom II X4 965 BE processors as such may have a TDP of as high as 140W.

The AMD Athlon II X4 630 on the other hand is a quad-core chip with a 65W TDP. This model features a 2.8GHz clockspeed, 2MB L2 cache, no L3 cache, and dual-channel DDR2/DDR3 memory controller. It's said to be available on August 23rd, 2009.

Additionally, we can also expect new Athlon II X3 processors in September or October and some new Athlon II X4 models sometime this Fall.

It is said on the German site ATI Forum that ATI's Catalyst 9.7 drivers for Windows Vista and Windows 7 will feature a new user interface, while the drivers for Windows XP and Linux will stick with the old one.

Oh it's so difficult not to generalise here, ladies sorry ! Guaranteed to make you type jolly happy, this fully functional Keyboard for Blondes is compatible with all desktops and laptops including MAC, PC and Linux.  Requires USB port and good sense of humour.

Check out the keypad with dice symbols instead of numbers.  Dude ... I want that on my keyboard!  To tell you the truth, you'd really have to be a geek to really appreciate it but if you know a geek gal, your going to want to keep her. Probably nothing says more than I love than this keyboard as a gift ;)

Crucial this afternoon said it should have a major update to its solid-state drive line later this month. The 2.5-inch M225 series will use more up to date multi-level cell (MLC) storage and a new memory controller that significantly improves speed. Estimates put the peak performance of the fastest, 256GB drive at 250MB per second for data reads and 200MB per second for writes.

Alongside this largest capacity SSD, a 128GB version will ship with slightly lower 190MB per second write speeds, while a 64GB entry version will scale down to 200MB per second reads and 150MB per second when writing. All three will use an ASATA II interface and should receive a more official release on July 20th.

Fashionistas will look forward to this pair of Calvin Klein USB drive sunglasses, where the USB drive itself remains hidden within the arm of the sunglasses itself while offering decent protection against nasty UV rays simultaneously. These new shades can hold 4GB of storage space, and will retail for $199 when it hits the market this October.

Overpriced, as usual, and you'd look pretty weird taking off your sunnies just to access data within whenever you work.

It may not be the first 1.8-inch hard disk we've seen pushing a 250GB capacity, but damn if Samsung doesn't know how to market its tech. See, these drives are small as Samsung skillfully demonstrates by photographing its new Spinpoint N3U disk in front of a credit card.

And by including a native PATA to USB controller on the circuit board, Samsung has helped manufacturers eliminate a bit bulk from future portable USB disk offerings. The 3,600rpm drive itself features 125GB per platter, 8MB of cache, and should be capable of withstanding drops from about 20-inches. At least it will when these begin shipping in mid-July for about $200.

Now, this particular drive (a 1.8″ drive designed for mobile hardware) doesn

A company named Psychsoftpc has introduced the Psychlone Tesla Personal Supercomputer, this is a new GPGPU computing system based on the NVIDIA Tesla cards. More details over here.

Psychsoftpc, a Quincy, Massachusetts computer manufacturer known for making Linux supercomputer clusters and high performance PCs and Workstations, announces the release of their new Psychlone Tesla Personal Supercomputer. In the tradition of their first product, the Psychlone Cluster Supercomputer, Psychsoftpc is now offering their own version of the Personal Supercomputer, the Psychlone Tesla Personal Supercomputer (they just had to call it "Psychlone", it's a tradition). The Psychlone Tesla Personal Supercomputer is built around Tesla Supercomputing Cards, or GPUs, from NVidia, which enable the manufacture of the Personal Supercomputer, or supercomputer in one box. This frees researchers from being totally dependent on cluster supercomputers. Researchers no longer have to wait for time on a cluster, but, instead, can tackle projects right away at their desk. Psychsoftpc is currently offering two versions of the product, one with SUSE Linux 64 bit Operating System and one with Windows Vista 64 bit Operating System, because they support freedom of choice in computing and have been supporting Linux since 1995. Psychsoftpc was one of the first PC manufacturers to pre-install Linux on their systems, and were supporting Linux, especially SUSE Linux from Novell, well before Dell and HP jumped on the Linux bandwagon. Here are more details about the Psychlone Tesla Personal Supercomputer and what it can be used it for.

First let's look at the Tesla Card itself, the NVidia Tesla C1060, the heart of the Psychlone Tesla Personal Supercomputer. The use of this card is what enables Psychsoftpc to put supercomputing power in a single box the size of a full tower PC that people probably have next to their desks right now, replacing those racks of PCs in a cluster configuration, taking up all that space and electricity. Each Tesla C1060 has a Massively-Parallel Many Core Architecture with 240 processor cores with 4 GB High-Speed Memory, Asynchronous transfer capability and IEEE 754 single & double precision floating point units. Specifically, each NVidia Tesla C1060 gives people 1.4 billion transistors, One Teraflop of processing power and 240 processing cores. This allows professionals to solve computationally intensive problems at their desk that traditionally required time on a large cluster installation.

With the Psychlone Tesla Personal Supercomputer, professionals can tackle some of the toughest computational challenges around including drug research, oil and gas exploration, prime number theory, computational fluid dynamics, Geographic Information Services (GIS), weather simulation and computational finance right at their desk with a supercomputer that takes up the same space as a regular PC, without waiting around for time on a cluster at their school or place of work. They could even use it to help pick out their fantasy baseball team. And there is plenty of software available that allows users to take advantage of the Parallel Processing power in the system.
