August 19 News from around the web

Post by Amy »

I know it's early, but perhaps, just perhaps there'll be another news post this afternoon...

PowerColor GameFX Radeon X800 GT 256MB PCIe

We haven't seen a retail Radeon X800 GT card run at higher clock speeds than the reference version, so default performance will always be similar. Price, too, will be similar for partners' cards. The differentiating factor come down to features. PowerColor, with its Game FX X800 GT 256MB carrying dual-DVI-I outputs and using only R480 cores, is in the ascendency here. Our advice after 14 pages is actually quite simple; go buy it. £110 won't buy you better overall 3D performance or a better feature-set.

Future of cell phone viruses

Post by tarametblog »

Glad you liked my article featured in BonaFideReviews :) I was also surprised to hear about mobile viruses but it does make sense, considering how cell phones are becoming more and more like mini computers.


Cheers, :drinkers:

Yeah, it just never occured to me that viruses could be a threat. I knew that people listening in on your conversations was always a risk, but not someone accessing your information from your phone. Thanks for the article!
