Phenom FX and X4 line-up unveiled "The Agena will launch in a few iterations and it will be known as Phenom X4 9xxx. The slowest one works at 2.2GHz, the mid-range one is a 2.4GHz part and the top of the range model will tick at 2.6GHz. Again, faster parts are planned for 2008." K10 to be cheaper than Core 2 Quad "Our well informed sources have suggested that clock to clock AMD CPU will be cheaper than Intel’s 45 nanometre quad core parts. This is AMDs only chance to get the face back and we can only hope that AMD will be better in clock per clock battle, of course for fallen AMD’s sake."

Cutting Through The Spin: The Shane Kim Interview GI: We know where ‘07 is—when someone comes into the store in September, they should be ready for Halo. Are we looking at an ‘08 with the Alan Wakes, the Too Humans, the Fable 2s? Kim: Let me put it this way: We haven’t announced any release dates for anything beyond 2007. But we wouldn’t be talking about those things if they were really distant in the future. I wouldn’t mention those in my part of the keynote. We wouldn’t be showing things like Halo Wars or Fable 2 behind closed doors. With Alan Wake and Too Human, we’re just going to make sure that they’re really ready when we show them again. But we wouldn’t be …

Hard Drives: ATA versus SATA "The future of SATA holds great things for those wanting even more speed, as drives with 300 MB/second transfer rates (SATA II) will be readily available in 2005, and by 2008 speeds of up to 600 MB/second can be expected. Those speeds are incredible, and are hard to imagine at this point. Another performance benefit found on SATA drives is their built-in hot-swap capabilities. SATA drives can be brought on and offline without shutting down the computer system, providing a serious benefit to those who can’t afford downtime, or who want to move drives in and out of operation quickly. The higher number of wires in the power connection is pa…

Beyond DirectX 10 - A glance at DirectX 10.1 "Nonetheless, despite all this, DirectX 10 is likely to see a number of point revisions during its lifespan and the first of these, imaginatively titled DirectX 10.1, will be the first of these. It may surprise some of you reading this, but the features which will be added by DirectX 10.1 have already been decided upon and information made available about them, so in this article we'll be taking a look through what we can expect to see in DirectX 10.1 compliant hardware."

NVIDIA and Sony Joint Developments "Anna (X-bit labs): As far as I know NVIDIA may claim that there was not that much investment into the RND: only about 50 engineers. Is this the result of the fact that Sony’s own engineers contributed to the development of the GPU in a significant way? David Roman: We do not disclose anything on the actual resources. Obviously there is a major economy of scale. This chip is a custom version of our next generation GPU. So we’ve been working on the next generation GPU for close to two years now, namely about 18 months. I don’t know the cost of this one but I know the cost of the last generation: it was 350 million dollars. These a…
