- Asus Rampage II GENE microATX motherboard Tested -
The Intel Core i7 is still the most powerful desktop processor money
can buy and it should come as no surprise that it's also the most
expensive. Yet it's possible to get together the guts of a basic Core
i7 system for $600 if you choose the
still very speedy Core i7 920. This got me thinking about building a
microATX gaming system around the Core i7 platform as it seemed like a
feasible thing to do, except for the lack of X58 motherboards using
this form factor.
- Nvidia To Unveil MCP89E Chipset For Centrino 2 - Nvidia
is bringing out a new MCP89E chipset
that will support DDR3 memories natively. It share some similarities
with the MCP79 chipset supporting Intel mobile processors for Centrino
2 platform. While MCP79 supports 2Gb DDR2/3 devices, MPC89E is able to
support 4 Gb DDR3 device. However, MCP89E supports only 8 PCIe lanes
instead of 20 on MCP79.
- Samsung NC310 Netbook Pushes Limits with 11 Hour
Battery Life - The Asus Eee PC 1000HE does 9.5 hours on a
charge and now the Samsung NC310 goes even further with its
eleven hours!
- Forceware 182.46 Beta Drivers - New Forceware beta drivers (XP 32-bit / Vista 32-bit) are available. Use
them at your own risk. Optimized single GPU and SLI support for
upcoming PC games. Numerous bug fixes.
- Windows 7 series: NVIDIA and AMD Graphics and
Gaming Performance - PC
Perspective takes a look at the graphics and gaming
performance of Windows 7. The results are actually LESS exciting than
I'd hoped they would be; but I think in the end that is a good
thing. Performance for all seven graphics cards they tested
was at least CLOSE when comparing Windows 7 and Windows Vista
results. In a few cases, especially with Far Cry 2, the
NVIDIA driver you can download today is simply not up to the quality
one would expected from the GeForce-giant. Even in other
games, where the average frame rate would only drop 5% or less, the
difference was notable at least to us in graphs if not in real-world
experiences.
- Next Office version to ship in 32-bit and 64-bit
versions - ZDNET blogger Ed Bott found an
interesting bit of information
while digging around in Windows 7 beta releases. If the code he dug up
is accurate, Microsoft Office's next release will have dedicated 32
& 64 bit versions.
- Firefox May Already Be Dead - Is
Google's new Chrome so good that Firefox
may already be dead?
- Intel Chip Flaw: No Threat Yet? - So, is
this new Intel chip flaw a big deal or not?
- A worm virus is capable of bringing down US power
grid - The idea of hackers
bring down the entire power grid might seem something out of a sci-fic
movie just like DieHard 4 but security analysts say that the threat is
for real.
- World's top 10 IT locations - PC
Authority, the Australian Computer Magazine team has compiled a
list of top 10 IT locations which it has found to be more IT
friendly than the rest of the areas in the world.
- Octopus like robots to explore deep sea life
(video) - Sea lovers will be happy to note the development
of a tiny robot octopus explorer with
the ability to maneuver under water with the agility of a jelly fish.
- Warner Brothers Adds 5000 Titles to its DVD
Catalogue Online - Those wacky Brothers Warner are always
looking to make a buck, but this time I think they offer a wonderful opportunity to fans
while breaking out a new on demand service that will offer 'longtail'
releases that were never scheduled for DVD to now be available. I think
this is pure brilliance by Brothers Warner and I do hope that other
studios follow suit.
- Cinemassacre's Top 10 Car Chases (video) -
check it out
- Kill Bill In One Minute (video) - That's
pretty much how it happened :-)
- Full Trailer for Kazuaki Kiriya's Goemon - Goemon
is both written and directed by Japanese filmmaker Kazuaki Kiriya, of
only Casshern previously. The screenplay was co-written by Kiriya and
Tetsurô Takita. The film hits theaters in Japan this upcoming
May, but
no word on when we'll see it in the US just yet.
- Crank: High Voltage TV Spot - The
last good action movie
to arrive before the summer movie season is Crank: High Voltage, in
theaters on April 17th. This TV spot isn't supposed to be seen here in
the US, but I really think there's no better way this movie can be
represented than with footage like this
- Monsters vs Aliens vs Cloverfield Viral Video - Pretty
funny! Paramount will debut Monsters vs Aliens in both IMAX
3D and regular theaters on March 27th.
- Second Astro Boy Teaser Trailer - Summit
Entertainment has debuted the
second teaser trailer for Imagi's Astro Boy animated movie on
Hulu. Astro Boy will arrive in theaters everywhere on October 23rd this
year.

new TV Spot for J.J. Abrams reboot/sequel of Star Trek hit
the net today that focuses more on the action in the movie. Check it
out!

Free - Playboy Enterprises has put 53
back issues of Playboy on the Web, viewable through
Microsoft's Silverlight viewer.
- Elisha Cuthbert All White in Maxim - These
pictures are pretty sexy, and they're at least on par with
her Complex shoot!
