- Sony's PlayStation 3 Chip Details - The new multimedia processor
called "Cell," touted as a "supercomputer on a chip," is well on
the way to completion, IBM says. As previously reported, the chip could end up inside the
PlayStation 3, and elements of its design are expected in future server chips from IBM,
commercial production of Cell could come as soon as the end of 2004. The processor's
design is still under wraps, but the companies say Cell's capabilities will allow it to
deliver one trillion calculations per second (teraflop) or more of floating-point
calculations. With integer math, it will have the ability to do more than 1 teraflop,
roughly 100 times more than a single Pentium 4 chip running at 2.5GHz.

- Abit KX7/AT-7/KR7A/KG7 Volt Mod Guide - These volt mods became necessary for the Abit enthusiast as Abit
boards, tho the highest performance on the market for an AMD based system, don't offer the
necessary voltage for the overclocker who wishes to push the memory to high MHZ and also
sustain aggressive timings, or voltage enough to push a CPU to its limits. The current
KX7-333(R), AT-7 and KR7A have Vcore maxed at 1.85V, and memory topping out at 2.85V in
the bios. The KG7 will go as high as 3V on the memory and 1.85Vcore.
