ECS Atom 330 Dual Core P945GC review
Posted by: on: 09/18/2008 01:00 PM [
0 comment(s) ]
Take this mainboard from ECS. It comes with integrated Dual Core Atom 330 processor. It has integrated sound, 10/100 Ethernet and integrated graphics. Really all you need to do is insert a slice of DDR2 533 memory and connect a HD, and you are on the web ... browsing at fairly normal speeds, listening to a songs, watching a DVD ... heck it all works fine on that Intel Atom 330 for sure. Next to that, the power consumption is obviously amazing. The platform completely maxed out merely utilizes 55 Watts, and half of that your PSU will account for all by itself.

CPU scaling in games with dual & quad core processors

Quad core CPU vs gaming. For this article we figured it's be a good idea to have a look at the performance of your average Core 2 Duo dual-core processor, and then take a handful of Intel and AMD quad-core processors, throw them at a high-end specced graphics card but and see what processor and platform really will bring the most value and is the fastest.

AMD Phenom X3 8750 review
Posted by: on: 04/22/2008 01:00 PM [

With the incremental increase in multi-core computing AMD last year surprised pretty much anybody in the world when information leaked regarding a roadmap showing CPUs with not 1,2 or 4 cores on them .. no three cores. That's right, a triple core processor based on the Phenom architecture. Let's have a look at it.

AMD Phenom X4 9850 Black Edition review

It's April 2008 and AMD released their Phenom X4 50-series processors, with an all new fixed B3 core, hopefully they can now leave the past behind them and move forward with a processor that can actually start competing with the competition. So get that in your brain real tight, the biggest deficit of that B2 revision processor, is now fixed in the B3 edition, the deletion of the TLB erratum.

AMD 780G & Athlon X2 4850e (ECS A780GM-A)

Granted, usually I'm not the one to get excited about budget integrated mainboards. But at the CeBIT AMD announced their 780G chipset, and for the first time in history I was pretty excited about the technology. In addition to releasing the low-power 55nm RS780 chipset AMD has also brought forward another energy efficient pile 'o transistors under the name of Athlon X2 4850e. We'll take a look at that one as well.

Intel released their all new Skulltrail platform. The recipe is simply, you take the fastest server-mainboard on the planet, tweak it to enthusiast levels, make use of a truckload bi-directional FB-DIMM memory, take not one but two of the fastest quad-core processors that money can buy on this globe, make sure there are four PCI Express slots on the fracker, shake it, stir it .. and send it out to the press. the result ? The fastest computing consumer PC on this globe.

A couple of days ago we received a phone call from Intel with the question if we wanted to test an even faster Penryn CPU. Well, you know me .. when it comes to enthusiast products I'm like a bitch in heat, bring it on. In that previous article we already have you a good overview of the to be released Penryn products on Q1 of the next year. One of the products in that extensive line of 45nm products, actually the one on top, is the Core 2 Extreme QX9770 Quad core processor. The cream of the crop, top notch product.

Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9650 processor review
Posted by: on: 11/11/2007 02:00 PM [

See, a Core 2 Extreme X6800 is pretty much the fastest desktop processor in the world, yet adding two more cores gives you the absolute best of both worlds. Get the highest stock clock speed Intel offers for the best performance in lightly multithreaded (or single threaded) applications, and a total of four cores for those heavy multitasking or CPU intensive multithreaded scenarios. Really, you can't lose there now can you ?

CoolIT FreeZone CPU cooler review
Posted by: on: 06/17/2007 01:00 PM [
0 comment(s) ]
So the CoolIT FreeZone is not a 100% water-cooling system as you and I know. Unlike most similar products, the Freezone doesn't use a radiator. Instead, it uses its proprietary Chiller module which simply are the TECs or peltiers elements to chill the liquid coolant. By doing so it provides far greater thermal efficiency.

Review: Core 2 Duo E6600, E6700 & X6800

Today we'll be taking some new Intel processors for a test-drive. Intel is smiling .. really really smiling ! They have achieved something really good for the processor market. The Pentium 4 brand is being ditched and Core 2 Duo has recently been introduced. Specifically the Core 2 Duo processors with the "Conroe" processor core really hit the market aggressively. They are energy friendly and offer a stack load of performance and if that isn't enough .. you can buy them relatively cheaply.

Asetek VapoChill LS review (sub-zero cooling)
Posted by: on: 07/19/2006 06:00 AM [
0 comment(s) ]
To go way beyond a normal overclock .. you need to cool that CPU below zero degrees C and that's where the Asetek LS comes in. It's the most expensive and noisiest cooling solution around. It's difficult to install as you'll need to mod your case, you'll have to do crazy stuff with your CPU ... but the result really is simple, you can cool down the processor with a -54 Degrees C cooling block on that AMD heatspreader and that my friends is such a fun experience you won't believe it.
