  • Review: ATI Radeon 9600 Pro

    25 June 2003, 00:00

    This is what the midrange is all about. Good IQ combined with good performance and 9600 Pro (and 9500 Pro before it) certainly brings that to the table.

  • Review: AMD Athlon XP 3200+

    13 May 2003, 00:00

    As a platform, we're pretty impressed. 200MHz front side bus can't hurt and the DDR memory infrastructure has long been in place to support the move. NVIDIA nForce2 Ultra 400 ...

  • Review: AMD XP1700 JIUHB Testing

    3 April 2003, 00:00

    Are the JIUHB XP1700s the new AXIAs ? (remember them ?). No, they're probably just little bit better in terms of overclockability. We managed a default voltage overclock of close ...

  • Review: AMD Barton XP3000+

    10 February 2003, 00:00

    The biggest challenge faced by the Barton is its performance against arched rivals Intel and their flagship the P4 3.06. Intel have added ‘Hyper-Threading’ to further enhance performance in the ...

  • Review: Shuttle SK41G XPC

    29 January 2003, 00:00

    Considered in absolute isolation, the SK41G is a fine machine. It uses the base mould from the popular Intel shuttles to good effect. We see almost every feature carried over ...

  • Review: ABIT KX7-333RAID v ABIT KD7-RAID

    16 December 2002, 00:00

    For now though, the winner of this shootout is the ABIT KX7-333 for its no hassle speed and stability - a simply outstanding board. It isn't packed with features I ...

  • Review: MSI K7T266 Pro2

    10 December 2002, 00:00

    Building on the KT266 chipset that hasn't been the success that VIA would have liked, they now offer the KT266A to the masses as an AMD DDR solution. It's this ...

  • Review: ABIT NF7-S nForce2

    30 November 2002, 00:00

    It looks formidable on paper. Stacked with technology and useful features, ABIT have their interpretation up and raring to go. Taking advantage of almost everything that the nForce2 has to ...

  • Review: EPoX KT400 8K9A2+

    24 November 2002, 00:00

    What do I look for in a motherboard? Stability, speed, features, and a comprehensive bundle. The EPoX 8K9A2+ scores well on most counts. As an example of the KT400 chipset, ...

  • Review: ABIT AT7 MAX2

    26 October 2002, 00:00

    Today though isn't an ordinary motherboard day, as the AT7-MAX2 definitely has broken the mould as far as socket A boards go...

  • Review: AMD XP2700

    26 October 2002, 00:00

    The bus clock increase and the new speed from nForce2 are really something to be proud of. The Asus board is a delight and it only needs voltage adjustment to ...

  • Review: Shuttle AK37 GT/R KT400 Motherboard

    19 October 2002, 00:00

    Shuttle may not be a household name in the same vein as Asus, Gigabyte, or MSI, but if they keep producing motherboards that are as stable, feature-rich, and tweakable as ...

  • Review: EPoX EP-8K5A2+

    1 October 2002, 00:00

    The new features including USB2.0 are very welcome and bring the board up to the feature level of all new boards coming out these days, added to the performance that ...

  • Review: AMD Athlon XP2600

    21 August 2002, 00:00

    Without sounding like an AMD advert, this CPU is pretty special. The changes made to the core have made all the difference and the CPU now scales well at 0.13u.

  • Review: SOYO KT333 DRAGON Ultra Platinum Edition

    21 July 2002, 00:00

    Before we talk about the boards themselves, familiarise yourself with the older DRAGON boards if you need to by taking a look here at our review of the older KT266 ...

  • Review: AMD Athlon XP2200+ (.13 Micron)

    10 June 2002, 00:00

    Underneath the name it's quite a different beast from XP2100+ and represents a big change for AMD, namely their success in bringing a 0.13u process desktop processor to market. It's ...

  • Review: Asus A7V333

    7 June 2002, 00:00

  • Review: AMD 760MPX Chipset Overview

  • Review: EPoX 8K3A

    14 April 2002, 00:00

    So what is the EPoX 8K3A like in practise after all the benchmarks are run and all the talk about KT333 is over? It's one of the most stable boards ...

  • Review: Asus A7V266-E RAID Motherboard

    14 April 2002, 00:00

    We feel that Asus have done a pretty good job with the A7V266-E. It's well presented, has a multitude of features and is a champion in the stability stakes. The ...

  • Review: AMD Athlon XP2100+

    13 March 2002, 00:00

    Another release from AMD sees them, in our eyes at least, back at the top of the desktop CPU market. The XP2100 simply enhances what is already an excellent processor. ...

  • Review: MSI KT3 Ultra ARU

    13 March 2002, 00:00

    We at Hexus like to see just how far we can push our kit. MSI, historically, have not paid too much attention to the overclocking community. This seems to have ...

  • Review: AMD Athlon XP 1900

    11 February 2002, 00:00

    The time period between the release of the Athlon XP1800 and this new chip, the 1600Mhz XP1900 can be measured in days. Indeed, the initial AthlonXP range which included the ...

  • Review: Home made water block and underground cooler

    30 January 2002, 00:00

    So It seems we need to keep the 137 or higher front (140 is ok but occasional blue screen....) side bus, and go for a bigger multiplier....... But this gives ...

  • Review: AMD Duron 1.3 Ghz

    23 January 2002, 00:00

    The Duron gets our value performance thumbs up and makes a great processor for a 2nd system or the user on a budget.

  • Review: ABIT KR7A-RAID

    7 January 2002, 00:00

    Overall it was a pleasure to use, but nothing special, except in the performance. It seems like the extra time spent by Abit has paid off, not in feature count ...

  • Review: AMD XP2000+ CPU

    7 January 2002, 00:00

    Incredibly fast and incredibly expensive are the buzzwords to take away from this review when thinking about this processor.

  • Review: ABIT KG7 RAID

    21 September 2001, 00:00

    It seems that Abit have entered this class of motherboard market later than the others. Epox have had its 8K7A and 8K7A+ boards out for a while and Asus with ...
