Good to see a another great review from you guys, love the way that the memory is tested so far for stability. So again Mushkin delivers a great product, but personally I would go for the Corsair XMS4000 Pro(if I had money) because of the flashy LEDs+performance. That doesn't mean Mushkin are not go...

But the good thing is, 2.6c has dropped to $AU282

THG has a roundup of 11 DVD burners, one of them is the Nu Tech DDW-081. It's one of the best out there.

Wonder when Lite-On release their 8x DVD burner.
I heard that the currrent 411S has a 8x Laser block, so it would would be mad if the current 411S owners can patch it to burn @ 8x.

Keep up the good work guys
I don't see me upgrading to those soon
Should be great for P4 overclockers

These 2 sites have leaked screenshots of Longhorn PDC Build 4051.
Wonder when the real thing come out!
IE(will it be 7) has a new download manager, why didn't MS didn't think of that before?

To take advantage of the Gigabit Lan the other pc's NIC has to be Gigabit as well, right?
Otherwise it will be 100Mbits isn't it?
You use dual Lan only if you want to network 3 pc's right? Otherwise the normal Lan should be enough, yeah?

This article has some more specs & architectural features of the Power 5:MCM but its from Inquirer.

As Xbitlabs reports, there are 2400+ cpu's with Thorton core for sale in Japan. Thorton's extra 256KB cache is disabled. 2400+ & lower models will also be Thorton. When you enable the extra cahce by locking up the L2 bridges you've got a Barton for cheap which overclocks like hell. http://www.xb...

Thanx for the reply guys
I'll go with Abit then because of all the o/cing results & cheap price.
Both have the same features don't they?
Asus has dual LAN doesn't it? What about Abit?

What about Building & Troubleshooting

For people who have comp probs, system building, etc...

Christmas release would've increased 9800/9600 XT & HL-2 sales dramatically but doesn't matter I'd rather wait than buying it with bugs & errors. The coupon system should be a hard copy system, not software. I reckon it should be like this : you have to show the receipt of 9800/9600 XT &...

Yeah I like the idea about you guys getting your own reviewing stuff rather than manufacturers hand picked ones.

Great review of PC4000XMS Pro

Would you guys be able to review the PC3200XMS Pro & how far they overclock with CAS 2 timings

Hey OBA & Locutus, good to see you guys from AtomicMPC

I guess we're Newbies because we just joined here.

BTW good rank OBA

Whats this talk with 533 QPB Prescotts, is that for budget systems?
All the above mobos should support this 533 version as well yeah?

I reckon nVidia lost the dual channel advantage they had with NF2 compared with Via KT chipsets. Now the memory controller is on the cpu, nVidia don't have the same advantage anymore. Thats why NF3 is not living up to our expectations as NF2(compared with Via K8T800) I think the next revison of NF3 ...

KT600 doesn't have dual channel, does it?

Also it performs lower than nForce 2 isn't it?

Just wanna make sure.

I know both are great boards & both have SATA RAID, Soundstorm, etc... but which one has the best overclocking options/results? say to get a 2500+ to >2.2GHz with air cooling

Its hard to decide btwn the 2 because the price difference is $5.

Unavailability of 2.4c has already started.

For example : MSY is one of the cheapest PC parts shops in Melbourne & they had the 2.4c for $AUS290, but they don't have it anymore.

Damn

How does the 9600(non Pro) compare with the Ti4200? especially in beta HL2
