Serious Sam - The Second Encounter
Published: Wednesday, February 13, 2002 | By: DennisWell I finally got my copy of this game and much like the first encounter the game is amazing. Now if only 3d Realms would get their act together and release Duke Nukem Forever we might have a good year of FPS sequels.

Chipset Problems Slowing DDR333 Launch?
Published: Wednesday, February 13, 2002 | By: DennisDDR333 is here but due to low demand for the faster memory many companies are putting the faster chips on slower modules. Corsair XMS2400 comes to mind, if you check the Micron chip specs they where actually designed to be DDR333 memory chips.

Published: Tuesday, February 12, 2002 | By: DennisThis is the same memory I used in the SL-85DRS2 review. In our review I was only able to run the system at CAS2.5 so it is good to see they will in fact run at CAS2@166+

First was the SL-85DRS2, a Pentium 4 motherboard that uses the SiS645 chipset. The second is the much talked about and highly configurable SL-75DRV4 based on the KT266A.

Olympics and 802.11
Published: Monday, February 11, 2002 | By: DennisThe International Olympic Committee decided to play it safe and will not be using 802.11 devices for their operations control. This does not surprise me in the least, 802.11 devices transmit data without wires similar to a cellular phone with a very weak encryption system. So until a reliable and easy to use means of encryption is enabled for 802.11 it will remain unsafe for high security purposes.

Published: Monday, February 11, 2002 | By: DennisAntec is holding a case mod contest in 6 categories. The winner gets to take home a Attaché Portable Color Scanner. I guess giving away an Antec case would be a little silly.

Gainward GeForce4 PowerPack ! Ultra/750XP Golden Sample
Published: Sunday, February 10, 2002 | By: DennisThis video card is what I would call "top of the line". On this card you have dual DVI outputs, Nvidia Ti4600 chipset, VIVO or Video in and Video out, EXPERTool (which is the Gainward tweaking utility that works like the "coolbits" hack.) and even comes with Tiny BGA ramsinks
. Not sure on the price yet, though I'd imagine it will be more than $399.
