  • What's Next for Desktops? - The big thing this year is PCI Express, a serial interface similar to USB and 1394 that provides low pin count and higher performance. One port of PCI Express will yield 200 megabytes per second, which is twice what a PCI slot does today, and it takes up less than half the area
  • Lite-On IT claims to offer world's first DVD recorder capable of writing CD-R/RW discs - Lite-On IT, one of the top producers of optical disc drives in Taiwan, recently announced the LVW-5005, claimed by the company to be the world’s first DVD recorder model capable of writing CD-R/RW discs.
  • Intel should be ashamed of itself over AMD 64, Torvalds says -  Posting by Linus Torvalds on the linux-kernel mailing list suggests that Intel should be more than a little ashamed of itself when it announced its 64-bit extensions last week. Torvalds was replying to a post which asked whether there was any difference between X86_64 and X86-64. He said the real name for the instruction set should be X86-64, and always has been. Torvalds said he was "a bit disgusted" at Intel for not even mentioning AMD in its documentation or its press releases. "I'd almost be inclined to rename the thing as AMD64 just to give credit where credit is due," he said. "However, it's just not worth the pain and confusion".
  • Motorola V150 review - The phone is pretty cheap (160 Euro) when you consider the colour screen and the polyphonic ringtones. Although the software is a bit weak, I really love a clamshell phone. I like the looks and lines and the weight makes it all so much nicer.
  • Kingmax "Hardcore Series" DDR-466 and DDR-500 Memory - Kingmax has recently brought their new line of "Hardcore Series" and affordable DDR-466 and DDR-500 memory modules to the market. Tweaktown tested these modules with an ABIT IC7 MAX3 motherboard.
  • Intel P4 Heatsink Round-Up - 3DXtreme has tested three new Intel Pentium 4 (Socket 478) Heatsinks from Evercool, Spire and Titan.
  • Ultracool II Digital - Eye Catching Fan controller review - The Madshrimps take a look at this fully automated fan controller.
  • Prescott Tweaks Dangerous - One of the Big 5 mainboard makers have thrown their hands in the air when it comes to pushing up voltages on the new Intel Pentium 4 Prescott CPUs. If you are looking at becoming a Prescott enthusiast, this might make you reconsider.
  • Abit Radeon 9800XT water-cooled to 505MHz  - For graphics overclockers, the water solution is definitely something that should look at. Almost 100MHz in graphics world or should we say close to 20 per cent overclock is definitely not something that you see every day.
  • Rights Management Add-on for Internet Explorer RTW - The Windows Rights Management Add-on for Internet Explorer (requires Windows Rights Management client installed) provides a way for users of supported Windows operating systems to view, but not alter, files with restricted permission. These restrictions enable authors to prevent sensitive documents, Web-based information, and e-mail messages from being forwarded, edited, or copied by unauthorized individuals. These restrictions provide protection, not only while the information is in transit, but also after the recipient of the information has received it.
  • Firebird 1.5 Final - Firebird is a relational database offering many ANSI SQL-92 features that runs on Linux, Windows, and a variety of Unix platforms. Firebird offers excellent concurrency, high performance, and powerful language support for stored procedures and triggers.
  • NuSphere phpED 3.3 - NuSphere phpED (download trial) is an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) that integrates a comprehensive set of editing, debugging and deployment tools that can speed development time by up to 75 percent and significantly reduce time-to-market. And when you're done, you can take advantage of multiple platform deployment options including Windows, Linux, and UNIX.
  • McAfee AVERT Stinger 2.0.2 - Stinger is a stand-alone utility used to detect and remove specific viruses.
  • Zoom Player 4.0 Beta1 - Zoom Player Standard (download ~ changelog), a flexible feature rich Media Player that for all its features and goodness remains bloat-free.
  • iuVCR v4.8.5.335 - iuVCR is a Windows 2000/XP intended universal video recording program. Have a TV tuner or a video capture card installed on your Windows 2000 or XP system? Now you can easily record your favorite TV programs and videos in *.AVI or *.WMV format. iuVCR has got a simple and plain interface, allows to capture video of any format, resolution and duration, can automatically start when scheduled and has a number of other useful features.
  • SpeedFan 4.10 - SpeedFan (download) is a freeware program that monitors fan speeds, temperatures and voltages in computers with hardware monitoring chips. SpeedFan can even access S.M.A.R.T. info for those hard disks that support this feature (almost all :-)) and show hard disk temperatures too, if supported. This new version adds full suport for AMD8111 SMBus 1.0; LM85C; ADT7463; nForce3; ADM1027; EMC6D103; ASUS MOZART-2.
  • Dlink firmware upgrade leaves stuttering mess - Many users have purchased the D-link DI-624 "Xtreme-G" wireless router for its ability to transfer at speeds up to 108Mbps (even though those speeds are more marketing hype than reality). Unfortunately for many, the latest version of the product's firmware does little more than turn the unit into an expensive, stuttering paperweight. DSLReports' Dlink forum is filled with complaints about the new DI-624 revision C v 2.36 firmware update and what users have dubbed the "60 second disconnect" problem.

what's wrong with that Liteon statement ? world's first dvd recorder that writes cd-r ??? wtf ?

Comments from ASkposted - 05:42 PM CET - Feb,23 2004
I was under impression that all dvd recorders were able to write cd-r/rws Perhaps the statement means 'using one laser only' (usually dvd-recorders have 2 lasers, one for dvds, one for cds)

Comments from jahiposted - 06:05 PM CET - Feb,23 2004
maybe a standalone dvd recorder, like the one pluged directly into a tv? shit makes no sence...

Comments from xxxxposted - 03:43 AM CET - Feb,24 2004
ya pci express, another architecture that video vendors can milk at our expense.

Comments from nVidia 4evaposted - 05:08 AM CET - Feb,24 2004
I thought you ATI b*tches out there claimed the Radeon 9800XT was already fast enough; why are some idiots overclocking it to 505MHz!?!?! Sounds like somebody is trying to cover up!

Comments from Stef Nighthawkposted - 04:36 PM CET - Feb,24 2004
Do you guys ever click on the link to read the FULL article? It's a standalone recorder you can hook up to your TV. It's the first to include recording capability for VCD and SVCD on a CD-R/RW. The other's could only write DVD.

ATI sucks period. Another stupid point is why bother overclocking a card that crashes to desktop on a lot of games? has issues with games like HL 1, these cards have the worst stability I have ever seen, ever read that in a review? No? Weird eh...? I offer anyone to grab the drivers from the start and look at ALL the game bugs crashes system, crashes to desktop etc.. Ya! lets overclock it so it can crash faster! wooo. ATI is the best.. Pfff ya, after smoking a big reefer and wearing a blindfold, sure. A=Assinine T=Technology I=Included

Comments from magaposted - 10:14 AM CET - Feb,25 2004

Comments from Bill Gatesposted - 12:15 PM CET - Feb,25 2004
Well if Jesus says ATI sucks, i think that ends the discussion. *HX* - please keep posting updates of that speedfan util... that has a lot of potential. not as bloated as Asus' PcProbe. Thanx for posting link!!!
