  1. Re:Extreme Edition? on Building the Godzilla of PVRs · · Score: 1

    The Pentium Extreme Edition 840 that was used in this project is just a normal Pentium D but with hyperthreading enabled, this and the unlocked multiplier for unhindered overclocking are the only differences between the two. The original P4 EE for Socket 478 was a repackaged Gallatin core (used in Xeons) with 2meg of L3 cache.

  2. Re:I think you all are missing the point... on New Fatal1ty Gaming Mouse · · Score: 1

    There is the high-end range of ABIT Fatal1ty motherboards for gaming PCs, Zalman released versions of the CNPS-7700Cu (CPU cooler) and VF-700Cu (video card cooler) with red heatsink and red LED fans, the Creative X-Fi Fatal1ty edition soundcard, and now this mouse from Creative. Please correct me if there is any more under the name...any more products of which I will not buy.

  3. Re:Alternate Proposal on Annual Fee For Your Comment? · · Score: 1

    As a member of the Atomic forums, and an avid subscriber to the great magazine, this disgusts me. Atomic is too much of a community to enforce a ridiculous subscription fee. I havent visited the forum in a few days, but after seeing this, i dont think I will bother. Yes, the magazine content may be available, but there are many that do not buy the magazine, and just use the Atomic forums. It is quite a tight-knit community, with (I think) a decent level of maturity within the posts. Atomicans have raised money for a number of sources, hosting LAN parties for medical treatment of Bailey, a severely disfigured child, and most recently the forum hero Nodnerb appeared on breakfast TV in a pink tutu singing I'm a little Teapot as the result of a bet that spiralled out of control, raising about A$1500 for multiple schlerosis research. Alternate accounts are half the fun at Atomic! Maybe not AborigiNeal either, but Ben Mansill. And maybe instead of the baseball bat idea...just get Virtuoso to probe the offending members of the forum. ;)

  4. America != Cheap tech on Why Don't PDAs and Cellphones Use USB? · · Score: 4, Informative

    The restrictions on phones over in the US is ridiculous. I got an NEC e616 flipphone in February with all the goodies (dual video cameras, mp3, video calls, 3G network @ 384Kbps) for just under $200 Aust with 3 Mobile. It includes a USB cable and there are no file restrictions on this phone other than content bought through the 3 services (music videos, etc) cannot be copied or moved. And the calendar automatically synchronises over the 3G internet connection with my PC. American mobile carriers are an absolute joke, simple as that.
