DDR SDRAM & Athlon Specs
Mr. Wong writes "We've finally got some solid benchmarks of DDR SDRAM on an AMD Athlon. Rambus better watch out, DDR looks solid." As well, check out this submission: ph4t1dck writes "Anandtech managed to get a hold of an Athlon motherboard with support for DDR memory and then proceeded to put it through its paces. Looks like this could spell big trouble for Intel & Rambus since the Athlon with DDR seems to be destroying the P3 with RDRAM. It'll be interesting to see how the P4 fares in all this with its 400 mhz front side bus." -

AMD on Celeron/Matrox Intros the G450
rubyred writes "AMD is at it again today and has added to their Duron line-up and released the 750MHz, which performed well against the Celerons from Intel. There are reviews on Sharky's and Anand's. Also Matrox, who we've not heard from in while has let loose a new .18micron based G450 chip, which is set for the corporate world. The 2D performance looks really good but the gaming... well it's another Matrox product. Still their Linux drivers might get better this time around. Again the same two sites have previews of the card." -
Intel Pentium 4 NetBurst Architecture Explained
fr0child writes "Next week is Intel's Developer Forum (IDF) and it seems they'll be releasing quite a bit of information (aka hype) about the Pentium 4. Anandtech seems to have gotten the scoop on Intel's NetBurst Architecture, basically covering the P4's internal architecture." -
AMD's Duron Birthed
maniack writes "The AMD Duron, the "Celeron-killer", has finally been released and lives up to the hype. According to these reviews from Ace's Hardware, Gamer's depot, Anandtech, and Tom's Hardware, the Duron thrashes the Celeron clock for clock and even hangs with the P3 in a lot of the benchmarks. Looks like AMD has another winner in the value market to go along with the Athlon." -
AMD's New Thunderbird Articles & Benchmarks
nd writes: "The NDAs for AMD's new Athlon Thunderbird reports just expired, and the benchmarks have been pouring in. Tom's Hardware's coverage (in German) is here , a translation to English is here - Anandtech also covered the new CPU release. For those of you who want to learn more about the Thunderbird, here is an interview with AMD on the processor release. Overall, the Thunderbird is performing quite well, and will be sold at the same price as current Athlons. " -
NVIDIA Geforce 2 Review
maniack writes: "NVIDIA lifted the ban on Geforce 2 benchmarks and specs at midnight, and Anandtech right away posted an article on the card. They put it up against all of its competitors, including the Viper 2, the Rage Fury MAXX, the Voodoo 4 and 5, and several flavors of the old Geforce including a 64 MB DDR card. The 32 MB DDR Geforce 2 GTS ripped the competition apart in almost every benchmark including the texture heavy Q3 Quaver. The Geforce 2 was the top performer in both high-end and low-end systems. The article also explores the performance hit cause by full scene anti-aliasing. Sharkyextreme also has a review, as does Hot Hardware. " -
Anandtech Looks At 'Celeron 2'
Oscarfish writes, "Anandtech has the scoop on the new batch of Celeron chips hitting the market. They're more or less Coppermine chips with half the L2 cache removed, so you basically have a Coppermine core with 128K L2, a 66MHz front side bus, and FC-PGA packaging. A decent choice for the "Value PC" segment, he says, but not for performance machines. " -
Serial ATA and USB 2
An anonymous reader pointed us to an anandtech article that discusses the future of device attachment. Specifically USB 2:Electric Boogaloo and Serial ATA. Definitely 2 standards will likely matter a lot in the future. That Serial ATA stuff looks interesting... -
