  • Review: ABIT KV8-MAX3 S754

    4 December 2003, 00:00

    23 September 2003, 00:00

    It's difficult to ascertain the 64-bit qualities of the FX-51 right now. Limited OS support and limited driver support make any tentative benchmarking perilous. I'll leave that up to Mr. ...

  • Review: EPoX 8RDA3G nForce2 Ultra 400

    18 September 2003, 00:00

    Excepting a couple of idiosyncratic features exhibited by the sample board (FSB fluctuation in Windows and under-volting), the 8RDA3G is an decent introduction into NVIDIA nForce2 power. If your budget ...

    15 September 2003, 00:00

    If MSI can market this board at, say, £20 lower than a similarly specified nForce2 Ultra 400, we can see a number of OEM system integrators opting for it. The ...

  • 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 ...

    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 ...
