  • AMD ingnots, sliced "TBread" with the crusts cut off - Recently AMD enthusiasts (overclockers) have had a smile across their faces the length of which must have wifes and girlfriends wondering. Their new-found mistress; "lower-speed" Thoroughbred-B's, and their "double overclock" potential. Almost mythical in overclocking circles (prior to phase-change cooling) doubling a processor's default speed is the apotheosis for the enthusiast. So where did these sweethearts come from? And why have I chose the title "AMD ingots sliced "TBread" with the crusts cut off"? Buckle up, it's going to a bumpy ride!
  • Sci: Britain boosts nuclear bomb research - Hundreds of extra scientists are being sought to work on Britain's nuclear bomb programme. Their job will be to maintain Britain¹s Trident warheads, to help ensure that new weapons can be designed in the future and to conduct joint research with the US. But the recruitment drive has raised fears that Britain risks being sucked into fresh US research on low-yield nuclear weapons ­ so-called "mini-nukes" ­ for use as bunker busters on the battlefield.
  • Postal 2 protection (SafeDisc/SecuROM) imcompatible with CD readers - According to CDFreaks.com, Postal 2 is protected by SafeDisc 2.9 in the UK and by SecuROM 4.8 outside the UK. The protection seems to be so heavy that even some CD-ROM drives have difficulties reading the original CD, users are adviced to upgrade CD-ROM drive drivers or return the discs to the store.
  • Epic's Tim Sweeney on cheating vs optimizations Optimization techniques  - Dave Baumann and the Reverend at Beyond3D have asked Tim Sweeney, the man behind the Unreal engine, and ATI's Director of PR, Chris Evenden about cheating and optimizations brought up by Nvidia's Detonator FX 44.03. Chris Evenden has issued the following statement: "The 1.9% performance gain comes from optimization of the two DX9 shaders (water and sky) in Game Test 4 . We render the scene exactly as intended by Futuremark, in full-precision floating point. Our shaders are mathematically and functionally identical to Futuremark's and there are no visual artifacts; we simply shuffle instructions to take advantage of our architecture. These are exactly the sort of optimizations that work in games to improve frame rates without reducing image quality and as such, are a realistic approach to a benchmark intended to measure in-game performance. However, we recognize that these can be used by some people to call into question the legitimacy of benchmark results, and so we are removing them from our driver as soon as is physically possible. We expect them to be gone by the next release of CATALYST."
