Okay, first the good news:
I’ve missed posting some good stuff due to some personal matters, but they’re not too old.
There’s three reviews over @ [H]ard|OCP. First, for the Intel crowd, they ran Epox 5EGA+ i915P through the guantlet…one LGA775 board that doesn’t cost you a kidney. Then they go over to the AMD side and heckle the MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum, a new take on a popular nForce 3 250 board. And what really crazy nutbar wouldn’t appreciate some heavier cooling grunt in the form of a Danger Den TDX H2O kit?
PC Perspective takes a look at the Albatron K8X800 ProII. It’s older, but it’s got the VIA Envy 24 PT sound chip right on the board.
TweakTown takes the OCZ DDR Booster for a spin. Personally, I think it’s one of the most original ideas for overclockers in a while, since not everyone has some soldering iron skills.
For the metal heads, it appears that former Pantera guitarist, Dimebag Darrell, is pushing up daisies. There is also a possiblity that at least one more member of Damageplan has joined him.
