The new Compaq R4000 laptops sport socket 939 architecture. I was previously under the impression that the semprons were still going to be socket 754. To my surprise, these new laptops are actually shipping with 939 accross the board. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to tell which version...
I am one of the people who bought an Ultra-D board for use with my X800XL. Now I can see a use for the second PCI-E slot. This is getting interesting. Early word from ATI is that they expect the Crossfire solution to work in "other" chipsets with 2 PCI-E slots. There needs to be 8x...
This was designed to be for the portable disk but I want it for the PC. They are really pretty snappy and would be much better for heat in the case. Along with all of the advantages of SSD, this is something I will buy.

We all have gone through purchasing computers and most new builders like to know what kind of bang for the buck you will get. I would like to offer a start to a system database with $$ of the components used to build a system over the past 2 years. We can list the component and cost of each...
Hmmm...
It looks like we could be in for more surprises over the next few weeks. I was geared up for a Venice, but now I am anxious to see what is fact and what is fiction about the X2.
Like many people, I have a motherboard, among other things, waiting for the new Venice/San Diego CPUs. I have a DFI NF4 Ultra-D I bought from NewEgg a month ago. The questions have been answered before in different places, but I thought this thread could put it to bed.
The new Venice cores...
Sapphire Ultimate X800XL Image
Gotta love the blue.... I am so tired of red and green wars. I like this better than the gold that Gigabyte was throwing around. We'll see how this clocks but it is said to be just as quiet as they come. It seems that there are so many X800XLs out there now.
I found this on NewEgg today. It sounds like a pretty nice card. Is this one just a glorified VIVO? I am used to having a TV-Tuner in my AIW cards... They must expect you to buy an HDTVWonder.
I guess the AGPs are shipping.... This one is OEM, but still looks like a good option for a...
If you ever plan to get one, go to CompUSA today. Plenty left all over.
Look here and find one near you.
I just got back from the TXGF after speaking with the Sapphire reps. They were NOT HAPPY that this is below what they are getting for their bulk cards on NewEgg. There will be emails flying...

Yet another x800xl post.... This card is finally available in quantity. The price is falling daily. The dual-DVI version from PowerColor is available for 370.00. Just go to PriceWatch and search. I found the Sapphire on Allstarshop.com for 369.99 after shipping. The description there is...
Check out the card we should all buy here at Gigabyte
I expect great things from this core. We will all have to run out and buy one of these. This may be a difficult decision for most of us seeing how they announced their dual GPU card 2 weeks ago. I vote for higher FPS in HL2/CSS for $299...
