- Intel Core i7-980X Six-Core 32nm Review Round-Up -
The Core i7 980X
is the latest offering to come from Intel. It is based on the 32nm
Nehalem micro-architecture code named Westmere. The 32nm process is a
process technology change or die shrink with the next architecture
change coming with Sandy Bridge For this processor Intel has bumped up
the amount of physical cores by two to a total of six and upped the
shared L3 Smart cache by 50% to 12MB.
- 59 CPU Roundup - The chaps over at iXBTlabs.co tested 59 different
CPUs!
- Intel H55/H57 Round-up: Full coverage for Core i3
and i5 - The cheaper Biostar reached a very high
result,
but one shouldn't forget that the default clocks produced weaker
results on these motherboards than the rest, and even at their best,
they weren't significantly faster than the other models. Therefore,
Biostar is the perfect choice for showing off, but only to those that
value additional features little. It must also be said that Biostar is
hardly the champion of software support and regular BIOS update
intervals, where other companies fare much better.
- Intel investigates counterfeit processors: 300
fake chips - As I
reported last week, Newegg shipped out counterfeit Intel i7 processors
to customers, where customers received a clay mold of a heatsink, and
even a piece of scrap metal as the processor. Intel
will investigate why there was counterfeit
processors shipped out to customers and exactly how many were shipped:
- One of the GTX 480 OC Editions consumes 305W -
Donanimhaber received documents
that showed a GTX 480 OC Edition consumes 305W!
- Kingston 30GB SSDNow V Series Boot Drive Tested - The
idea of an SSD boot drive
like the Kingston 30GB V Series drive works well of a lot of users who
just can't dump a load of money into a drive but would really like to
get rid of the HDD bottleneck in their system. You can see that Windows
reports a total capacity availability of 27.9GB out of the 30GB total
physically on the drive which is not much of a chunk allocated for
drive maintenance as compared to some other drives which have been as
much as 10-20%.
- HotHardware and TechVi Video Podcast - Mar. 12,
2010 - Check it out.
Topics include Intel's new Core i7-980X Extreme 6-Core processor, a
couple of home theater friendly machines from Toshiba and Dell, fake
Core i7-920 processors from NewEgg, and Android's rapid growth in
adoption rate in the mobile space...
- PC Perspective Podcast - Eee PC 1201N ION, Newegg
and fake CPUs - Last week PC
Perspective talk
about an MSI Radeon HD 5770 graphics card, the ASUS Eee PC 1201N ION
netbook, Newegg's issues with fake Intel Core i7 CPUs, NVIDIA drivers
that might be killing your graphics card, Steam coming to a Mac near
you and the announced pricing structure of OnLive.
- Hard drive evolution could hit Microsoft XP users -
As this article from the BBC points out,
upcoming hard drives shipping early next year will utilize 4KB (versus
512-byte) sectors. The move will mean less wasted space, particularly
on today's large capacity terabyte drives, allowing drives to get
larger while consuming the same amount of power. The downside though is
that older operating systems like Windows XP weren't designed with 4K
sectors in mind. This is because Windows XP was released before the 4K
format was decided upon.
- iDongle : standalone tethered boot for 3.1.2
devices (video) - Standalone
jailbreak and/or tethered boot for 3.1.2 devices (iPhone 3GS,
iPod Touch 2G/3G).
- Apple's iPad battery replacement program replaces
entire device - As pointed out by Engadget,
Apple's product page for the iPad reads somewhat differently than the
iPhone page: If your iPad requires service due to the battery's
diminished ability to hold an electrical charge, Apple will replace
your iPad for a service fee. Correct... Apple, instead of simply
replacing the battery and sending your device back, will simply send
you an entirely new iPad for the price of $99 (not including $6.95 for
shipping).
- Play Xbox360 Games On iPhone and Android - On
Monday, Novell will demonstrate new technology
that will allow Microsoft Xbox 360 games to be translated into iPhone
apps. It also has the capability to be used to create Android games,
potentially taking some Xbox games to the mobile masses.
- Xpand Promises Universal 3DTV Glasses by June - The next set of glasses planned, called the
X103 series, are designed to be universal active shutter
glasses, which will periodically search for infrared signals and be
able to interpret the signals from all the major sets - Panasonic, LG,
Samsung, Sony, etc. - as well as the signals used in Nvidia 3D Vision
glasses. Dror tells me he expects these glasses to be in stores by
June, and says they will come in 12 colors - in adult and kid sizes -
so they can be a "fashion item." I'm not quite sure about the fashion
statement they make, but that's not my area. He said final pricing
wasn't set yet, but it will probably be in the $125 to $150 range.
- Energizer's Duo USB charger is infected with a

software distributed with the portable charger
is infected with a Windows trojan
- Bill Gates is no longer the world's richest - Forbes is reporting the official
dethroning of Bill Gates. This is not the first time he's lost the top
spot since initially capturing it. In 2008, he dropped to second under
Warren Buffet. This year, it's a different story. Carlos Slim Helu, a
telecom tycoon in Mexico, has now surpassed Mr. Gates for the numero
uno spot on the world's billionaire chart. Last year, Helu ranked third
with a fortune of $35 billion. Today, Helu is now worth $53.5
billion--an increase of $18.5 billion over the past year.
