Today nvmax.com will be looking at FIC's version of the KT266A mainboard, the AN11 Stealth!

The KT266A chipset has been out for a while now and is starting to take a backseat to the newer KT333. While the latest Athlon processors 'don't really' support that high of a FSB the KT266A is still a popular choice for people looking to build new systems. When choosing a new motherboard there are many things that people take into consideration before laying down their hard earned money on a piece of hardware. Company/reputation, performance, features and price are the main factors behind most peoples purchase.

Our friends over @ Hardtecs4u got their fingers on the latest Pentium 4 2.8 Ghz. The review is in german but I think the benchmark results are talking their own language.
Take a look over here

At last, a company that would rather have a great product, at reduced production, then having an OK product at increased productions. Now XtremeDDR may do this for a number of reasons, firstly for the reason of quality. In the relatively small demographic of PC overclockers having just one or two people saying bad things about your product can have devastating effect, just look at OCZ. A lot of people thought that their RAM was a great product until few people had a bad experience with them, and now I don?t know anyone who will buy OCZ ram. With this in mind XtremeDDR has gone for the fewer sales, less complaints option which will in the long run make them more money. Click on Read More... for a link to the review

Here they are , the NDA is over and out they come! we have 6 reviews of the Intel's Pentium 4 2.8Ghz for your reading pleasure.

Geek Extreme takes a look at MySoundStudio from Stomp Inc., a nice consumer-grade audio editing package suitable for doing basic audio manipulation, CD track ripping, etc. You can find the complete review Here

When many of us started playing around with overclocking, power supplies were about the last thing on our minds when thinking of quality components. Things have changed, however, and both the quantity and quality of power is more important now than ever before. Come join TweakTown as they take a look at the Thermaltake 420 watt PurePower PSU. Can the King of Cooling do justice to this new area? Let's find out!

The 32x burner from Samsung that I will be reviewing today is a GREAT all around burner for everyone. It is full of great features like buffer underrun protection, fast cd writing speeds, fast loading and unloading and comes with everything to get you making your favorite music cd's and/or backing up your data.

TweakHound has a new review of Stomp's BackUp MyPC v. 4.81. This new version has WinXP support.

BackUp MyPC is an easy to use and effective backup utility. I was surprised that the new XP support worked so well. I like the fact that you can set a schedule to backup your stuff while you aren't around and on a regular basis. I also like the option of doing a full or differential backup.

Broadband Internet is becoming increasing popular in developed countries around the world that are sick of the turtle-like speeds that ageing 56k dialup Internet access provides. Nexland are one of the companies which offer their only broadband products. TweakTown checks out the ISB 800Turbo which features its own built-in 8 port hub and firewall to protect against intruders

Just got word from AC @Nvmax.com that their Creative Extigy review has been posted and is ready for your viewing pleasure. here's a snip.

The small plastic black box (8"w, 7.75"d, 1.75"h) has been designed to sit near flush on most tower cases but is also supplied with two brackets for upright mounting. It is rather lighter than expected. The front houses optical in and out sockets for data transmission to audio equipment such as Minidisk, a line in, a microphone in (wrong size should be a full size jack), headphones with balance control, master control, a quick CMSS button (this gives wrap around 5.1 sound from conventional two channels), a standby button and four LED's indicating power on, remote control receive, using digital and CMSS enabled

The P4T533 is the first 32 bit Rambus solution with 232 pin Rimm 4200 modules based on the Intel 850E chipset to hit the market. This review covers the layout, the performance of the board, onboard raid, and how to modify to overcome its inherent faults. This review includes the previously unknown method of modifying the voltage to the Rimms.

Just got word from David Solomon @Nvmax.com that he's posted their LITEON_CDRW40x12x48 Review! Here's a snip.

I was very happy with my old 8X CDRW. It was not the fastest burner in the world, but it has run well for many years. I paid a lot for it and really didn't want to invest that much money again just to burn CDs. Let's face it. We really do invest a lot of money into computer components when we buy them and the depreciation is terrible. I knew that once I started looking again, I wanted to get a good one with a company that supports it well. Many of my friends went out to get the top-of-the-line drives, so I headed over to try them out. They were all nice, but some were a little pricey

Just got word from YougCrow @Darkcrow.co.kr that he's posted his Single Head VS Triple Head! Parhelia-512 Surround Gaming review! If you don't not what Surround Gaming is check out this screenshot

You're The Gamer would like to introduce the new Ati Radeon 9000 Pro.This card features 64mb of 3.3ns memory to boost most of todays games its also fully supports Direct X 8.1 which is the standard for today & future games.

Just got word from Aron @ASElabs.com that he's just posted his exclusive review of Gyration Ultra Cordless Optical Mouse.



You must be thinking why I really like this mouse so much, or maybe not... First off, it is totally wireless. This mouse has no problem whatsoever and not having the damn wire is one of the greatest things since sliced bread. That's all well and good, but this is more than just an ordinary wireless mouse. This one has the very unique feature of being a handheld pointing device! No more do you need to be tied down to that desk anymore to browse the internet or navigate on your computer

t-break has reviewed the new Nomad MuVo MP3 player from Creative

----------

Creative has sure been in the MP3 player business for a long time. The original Nomad rocked with it's amazing design and a cool set of features and then the Nomad II further improved upon the functionalilty. Creative then moved on to introduce a completely new kind of MP3 player with the Jukebox that offered massive storage capacities while still keeping it portable. Today, we have their MuVo MP3 player which is the first of its kind that we've seen- a thumb drive MP3 player

Hell what a nice looking card !!. The review is a bit older but I think you haven´t seen it yet. Radiativenz.com have written a review about the Triplex Millennium Silver GeForce 4 Ti4600 grahpics card.
Here´s a bit:The card sports 128Mb of Samsung 2.8ns DDR, which equates in theory to a max speed of 714Mhz. The default speed of the GeForce 4 Ti4600 is 300 Core/650 Memory, so they are giving you a little overclocking headroom here (in theory anyway). It will be interesting to see just how fast we can get her purring later on.... Head over by using the above shown link!

Ever since the Tt Crystal ORB came out, it seems like what activity there was in the VGA and chipset heatsink market dried up. Vantec saw this and has stepped up to the plate with their IceBerq chipset coolers. There are two models, the CCB-A1A that is made of aluminum and the CCB-A1C that is solid copper. Aside from some trendy colors that we will be looking at in a minute, both these coolers are low profile to keep from blocking the use of a PCI slot.

BurnOutPC has written a review about the AL-555 L pre-modded aluminium case.
Here's a snip:
This case is pre-modified, and really really looks sweet. The windows are secured onto the case with screws, and they add a special "totally finished" effect to the case. There are not 1, not 2, but 3 windows on this case, normally nobody would add a window on the right door, but this case has it! Read the whole review over here.
