ATI Radeon Xpress 200G reference board "ATI has shied away from AMD-oriented chipsets for a while, but the recent launch of the Radeon Xpress 200 chipset signalled a change of mind. It also marked ATI's first attempt at a PCI Express chipset. To be honest, ATI has managed to put together quite a tempting package for just about anyone considering an Athlon 64 or Sempron Socket 754 based machine."

My little brother left for Alaska and asked me to sell his computer. I don't think its worth much more than $120, but let me know what you think. it's a AMD Athlon 64 3500+ (2.2 ghz) cpu 90nm in a ASUS A8n-SLI Deluxe board. It also has two sticks of 512 mb of PC3200 DDR2 Kingston Ram. I either have a pci video card for it or for an extra 20 an ATI 1600 PCI-E card. It has an 80 GIG WD IDE drive in it and powered by some off brand 550w power supply. Finally it is all wraped in a Antec Lan boy silver case with a window on the side. Let me know if there is anything that might interest you. Thanks, Zach

Intel to put 64 bits in desktops in 2005 "Intel once said desktop buyers wouldn't really need 64-bit capabilities until toward the end of the decade, but the company will make such capabilities a feature across its desktop lines next year. The Santa Clara, Calif.-based chipmaker disclosed at its analyst meeting in New York that it will include 64-bit functionality on its desktop chips starting in 2005, a schedule that roughly coincides with the release of a 64-bit version of Windows for desktops coming next year. The functionality will appear even in the budget Celeron line."

Ageia Tests Next-Generation PhysX Accelerators "A web-site has published photos of what it claims to be a next-generation Ageia PhysX physics processing add-in-card. The board seems to be rather huge, while the revamped physics processing unit (PPU) also seems to be large, which implies that the new board will be rather powerful. The new Ageia PhysX card is designed for PCI Express x8/x16 slots and is much longer compared to the first incarnation of physics accelerator for personal computers and also has much more complex print-circuit board design. The new board also has external power connector, which indicates that the card has pretty high power consumption. Be…

Can SLI in a Notebook Beat Desktop Graphics? 'Desktop replacements not only have sufficient CPU capabilities, but offer features such as large displays, RAID arrays and even dual-graphics solutions. Desktop replacement systems usually come equipped with either a desktop processor or the most powerful mobile processor. Armed with an AMD Mobile Turion 64 ML-44 running at 2.4 GHz and 2 GB of memory, the Battalion is ready for anything that comes its way. As we mentioned earlier, the system has dual Nvidia GeForce Go 7800GTX graphics processors connected together via SLI to give the blistering performance for gaming on the road.

Need for Speed: Most Wanted Tweak Guide "To start with, NFS:MW returns to the "Hot Pursuit" formula of incorporating wild police chases, but takes it further by giving you much more freedom to pretty much go anywhere you want to - through paddocks, motel courtyards, golf courses, petrol stations and just about anywhere else. It also has various pursuit modes, not just a straight chase down the highway. For the street racers, it includes tuning elements from Underground, and other similar themes to suit the genre. For the original NFS purists, there are lap races over set tracks, and of course thankfully there is an option to turn off that damn "Catchup mode" which dro…

Your Existing Code? Throw it Away "Most of the problems of getting these systems running on these multicore processors are not solved. They are doctoral theses, not known implementation problems. So it's not even clear that over the lifespan of these next generation systems that they will be solved problems. The amount of time it takes to get a good multicore engine running, the Xbox 360 might not even be on the market any longer. That should scare the crap out of everybody."
