  • Review: XFX GeForce 6800 Ultra

    25 June 2004, 00:00

    It overclocked well and the stock reference cooler isn't the loudest in the world. Should you wish to partake in a little next generation graphics action, you could do worse ...

  • Review: Free and Open Source Software - Part 1

    22 June 2004, 00:00

    Take a moment to play around with a live CD. No doubt many things will seem confusing at first, as there are a lot of tasks which are approached differently ...

  • Review: DFI LANPARTY PRO875B Canterwood

    22 June 2004, 00:00

    DFI\'s produced another well-rounded motherboard that demands to be shortlisted for top-end S478 machines. Priced in the neighbourhood of £120, it also represents good i875P value. Our reservations lie in ...

  • Review: ASUS P4C800-E i875P Motherboard

    22 June 2004, 00:00

    Priced at just below the £140 mark makes it an expensive motherboard. We feel that it has enough going for it to justify that price tag. It may not be ...

  • Review: Albatron PX875P Pro

    22 June 2004, 00:00

    Overall, provided it\'s cheap, it\'s recommended. You can buy better, there\'s no getting away from that, but you can buy much much worse at the same time. Above average from ...

  • Review: Intel's 915P and 925X w/ LGA775, DDR-II and PCI-Express

    19 June 2004, 00:00

    The fears surrounding the operation of the socket itself are unfounded, at least in this reviewers eyes, my cack-handed penchant for mishandling hardware not troubling the new socket one bit. ...

  • Review: Chaintech Zenith ZNF3-250

    18 June 2004, 00:00

    There's nothing much intrinsically wrong with the Zenith ZNF3-250. Great audio. FireWire, external boxes and a mouth-watering bundle are definite plusses. We, however, would recommend a revision B board with ...

  • Review: Gainward CoolFX Powerpack! Ultra/2600

    16 June 2004, 00:00

    There's a performance increase to be had from the Ultra/2600 CoolFX, but unless the price differential drops to within £100 of the air-cooled board, the Ultra/2600 CoolFX is hard to ...

  • Review: Corsair TwinX1024 3200XLPRO Memory

    11 June 2004, 00:00

    The bottom line is that there's absolutely nothing better for default performance. RAM equipped with Winbond's BH-5 chips is currently hot property amongst enthusiasts. Corsair's TwinX-3200XLPRO now easily displaces it ...

  • Review: SavRow Razor 1.7 Laptop

    8 June 2004, 00:00

    SavRow's Razor 1.7 does a damn fine job of eliminating long-held belief that a laptop cannot be both thin-and light and a desktop-replacement at the same time. Copious amounts of ...

  • Silverstone's TJ-06 @ Computex 2004

    4 June 2004, 00:00

  • Review: Zalman Reserator 1

    1 June 2004, 00:00

    It all depends on what you want. Do you want to overclock? Look elsewhere. Do you mind a wee bit of fan noise? Look elsewhere. Do you want is-my-PC-even-switched-on silence? ...

  • Review: ATI PCI Express Introduction

    1 June 2004, 00:00

    ATI\'s transition to PCI Express is a logical one, the company well placed to take advantage of the technology, both in marketing, production and performance terms. An evolutionary step in ...

  • Review: AMD Athlon 64 FX-53 and Model 3800+ socket-939 CPUs

    1 June 2004, 00:00

    The bottom line is very simple. AMD\'s delivered performance in spades with its new Socket-939 processors; performance that makes Intel\'s Pentium 4s look impotent in comparison. We await Intel\'s response ...

  • Review: ATI Mobility Radeon 9600 vs NVIDIA GeForce FX Go5700

    29 May 2004, 00:00

    It's pretty clear that mobile graphics are in the ascendancy. Current top end mobile GPUs enable excellent DX8-level performance and DX9 titles are certainly playable. The advent of swappable graphics ...

  • Review: Rock Xtreme XTR-3.2 Laptop

    29 May 2004, 00:00

    If Rock can position this exact specification at, say, £1499 including VAT and delivery we'd be more inclined to look upon it favourably. For £1800+ we'd really be looking at ...

  • Review: MSI K8N Neo Platinum Edition nF3 250Gb

    We just need a revised BIOS that allows the enthusiast really push the board to the limit. The AGP/PCI lock is in place but it\'s of questionable value when multiplier ...

  • Review: ABIT KV8 Pro K8T800 Pro Motherboard

    25 May 2004, 00:00

    This will undoubtedly be ABIT's cheaper S754 VIA K8T800 Pro motherboard. Expect a MAX3 model soon, and we're sure it'll be laden with various cooling gadgets and a few extra ...

  • Review: Hiper HSU-3S350 Power Supply

    25 May 2004, 00:00

    It\'s a quiet supply that should serve you well if 320W sustained and limited connectivity options are all you\'re looking for.

    While the photographs don't give the entire game away, the basic construction, motherboard layout and cooling system are clear to see. My personal concerns lie in routing the power cable ...

  • Review: VIA K8T800 Pro (S940) Chipset

    24 May 2004, 00:00

    The reference board has shown that motherboard manufacturers will have an easy time in switching between present K8T800-based production to Pro boards. We've seen most major manufacturers produce press releases ...

  • Review: Shuttle XPC SB61G2 v3.0

    22 May 2004, 00:00

    It\'s a tidy, polished implementation of a well trodden concept, with the odd rough edge here and there. But nobody else does a Pentium 4 SFF box quite like Shuttle, ...

  • Review: XGI Volari Duo V8 Ultra 256MB

    22 May 2004, 00:00

    It's hard to recommend XGI's top card with the current driver set. The company needs to bolster image quality before concentrating on all-out performance, really. A promising product that's severly ...

    18 May 2004, 00:00

    In all honesty my first impressions of the SilverStone TJ-03 were very high. There are a few areas that I’m not 100% happy with but let's hope SilverStone keep producing ...

    12 May 2004, 00:00

  • Review: Intel Pentium 4 3.4GHz Prescott

    9 May 2004, 00:00

    Indifferent performance, heat problems, lack of S478 upgrade potential, and strained availability, at the end, all count against a recommendation for the Pentium 4 3.4GHz Prescott processor. Looking at the ...
