- A Next-Generation DirectX 9.0 Game Graphics Performance Preview -
X-Bit Labs managed to obtain a copy of a highly-anticipated DirectX 9.0 game
utilizing modern technologies like Pixel Shaders and Vertex Shaders 2.0.
Fortunately, the title allows benchmarking and they could not miss the
opportunity to benchmark the RADEON and GeForce FX graphics cards under
hardcore load.
- Athlon 64 and Athlon 64 FX Barebones Special - Compiling more than
100 motherboards for AMD Athlon 64 (95) and AMD Athlon 64 FX (6) wasn't enough
for AMDboard's monks, and they are now torturing eyes and fingers for the sake
of making a
compilation of the latest AMD Athlon 64 barebones.
- LeadTek GeForceFX 5900 Ultra Review -
LeadTek's Winfast A350 TDH Ultra myVIVO card, which sports the dynamically
fast GeForceFX 5900 Ultra chipset, is the true behemoth of video cards on the
market today. With an attractive bundle and top marks for benchmarking, this
is the nVIDIA card of choice for gamers and enthusiasts.
- XFX FX5600 Ultra 128MB DDR DVI & VIVO (video-review) - The XFX
FX5600 Ultra 128MB Video Card supports dual display, video in/out and many
other advanced features. This enables users to enjoy gaming and work more
productively. While this product is not the fastest in the nVIDIA lineup it is
very stable, overclocks and performs well. If you are ready for an affordable
Video Card upgrade then keep this product at the top of your list.
Watch the Video to find out more.
- Vantec Fan & Power Supply Vibration Dampener Kit Reviews - If
you are being bothered by the noise levels of your fans or vibrations of the
case caused by fans then this product can definitely help you. Placing it on
the interface between a fan and a window might obstruct the aesthetics of an
LED fan or colored fan body, but on the case itself this concept works great
with no visible differences. If you need to reduce the noise levels of your
fans this product might work for you. The risk is well worth the investment as
these dampeners are very reasonably priced. I feel comfortable in
recommending the Vantec Vibration Dampeners.
