AMD Athlon 64 FX-60: A Dual-Core farewell to Socket-939 "Our excitement over the Athlon 64 FX-60 isn’t really about its performance, although at 2.6GHz it is quite stellar, rather it is more of an excitement out of principle. We’ve favored and recommended dual core processors to power users as soon as they were available, even though dual core processors were generally far slower at single threaded applications than their equivalently priced single core alternatives. With the FX-60, at least at the high end, the same is no longer true."

"The industry has asked the Japanese government to charge a royalty, to be added to the retail price of portable digital music players like Apple's iPod, which has been explosively popular here.

Will NVIDIA SLi get caught in the ATi CrossFire ? "So now you’re thinking how cool is this, and you want one…. well, erm… the thing is right now there aren’t actually any of these cards available, so although ATi have done us all a favour by building in a level of future proofing by maintaining the use of ‘older’ cards for us, we can’t actually go ATi MVP right now."

E3's just six weeks away. What games and new consoles be on display? "The show's biggest surprise, though, will likely be the revelation of "Prey". Gamers first heard of "Prey" in 1997. The game, originally about a Native American who fights several nefarious alien races, was thought to be cancelled, but quietly restarted a few years ago. The new version will use the "Doom 3" graphics engine and is said to be a visually striking title. There's no word on whether the story has changed." They cover a lot of ground, check it out!!

"Much like Intel’s Centrino, AMD is referring to their Turion 64 as a “Mobile Technology” and not just a microprocessor platform. AMD has seen the success of Intel’s Centrino Mobile Technology and is hoping to capitalize on some of that success. Unlike Centrino however, Turion 64 doesn’t rely on AMD-supplied chips to receive the branding. AMD will provide the Turion 64 processors, but chipsets can be provided by a number of vendors as can the LAN and wireless controllers. AMD is far less restricting on the components that make up Turion 64 enabled notebooks, which means that they will inevitably be cheaper than Centrino platforms, but it also means that they may not b…

10 Reasons Why High Definition DVD Formats Have Already Failed "I’m not typically a doom and gloom kind of guy – really, I’m rather optimistic. But this pending format release/war is simply the most ridiculous thing I’ve seen in a long time. The hype machine is entirely enthusiast-created and since that day I realized Steve Jobs could sell a fart provided he sued a public Mac forum for talking about it before its release, I began to understand the power of public mania."

Ford sets fuel-cell record at Bonneville "The Ford Fusion Hydrogen 999 raced to a record 207.297 miles per hour Aug. 15 at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, setting the mark as the world fastest fuel-cell car. The 999 also is the world's first and only production vehicle-based fuel cell race car. After more than one year of design and development and 10 years of hydrogen vehicle research, Ford’s fuel cell team worked through technical difficulties and the hot desert climate in a successful effort to join the 200 MPH Club of Bonneville Speed Week."
