- Windows PE revealed - One of the coolest and most unknown
products Microsoft has released is called the Windows XP Preinstallation Environment, or Windows PE. In short, it's
Windows XP-on-a-CD. You boot directly to a Windows XP GUI, which allows you to set up your
computer to install Windows. This is a wonderful utility for those of you who regularly
use DOS boot disks or Windows Setup to set up your computer for installation.
- NVIDIA NV30 Sneak Preview - This
sneak preview of the NVIDIA NV30 focuses on the architecture behind the chipset and
some, but not all of the new features that it will bring. Because we signed an NDA to get
this information we wont be giving away performance figures, as mind boggling as we know
them to be. Instead we shall focus on "CineFX", NVIDIA's new cinema engine that
promises to render animation such as Toy Story; in real time. Since we can't share
benchmark figures we will leave you with some thought. NVIDIA says Cinematic quality
requires five key points: 1) Advanced Programmability, 2) High Precision Color, 3) High
Level Shading Language (CG), 4) Highly Efficient Architecture, 5) High Bandwidth to System
Memory and CPU (AGP 8X). The only other point we can share is that NV30 will use a 256 Bit
memory bus and DDR2 memory. I recommend you to read another article at SharkyExtreme too.
