SUMA Platinum GeForce2 Pro
Published: Wednesday, December 27, 2000 | By: DennisSUMA, a small company, which I?ve never heard of, is releasing a Black GeForce2 Pro video card. I found a review of this card in prototype form at Tom's Hardware.
Here are just some of the cool features that are included with this card.
5ns DDR memory, 200Mhz/400Mhz clock speed and AGP Pro! They also have a pretty sweet looking TwinView MX card too. -
Anandtech Dream System
Published: Tuesday, December 26, 2000 | By: DennisMuch like Arstechnica, Anandtech creates a computer building(buying) guide and outlines different systems based on purpose. Being a builder myself I get a kick out of these articles from time to time.
Though since most of us that build systems do so to get the best system for the least amount of money it doesn't seem practical to follow a guide that has a bottom line of 10 grand. -

P4 Overclocking Guide
Published: Sunday, December 24, 2000 | By: DennisI caught glimpse of this over at GamePC today and was very surprised. Normally I'm not real big on first generation hardware releases, but for the P4 I might make an exception.
The Pentium 4 looks like it will be a great platform for the CyberAthlete. You will get great memory bandwidth due to Rambus, the highest CPU clock speeds, and double-digit multipliers. See the review at GamePC. -

Published: Saturday, December 23, 2000 | By: DennisNow that the DDR chipsets have been on the market for a month or so I've been quite curious about how they perform. We all know what DDR does for video technology and bandwidth but how would a processor use it. Club Overclocker has a review of Iwill's offering to this new platform with some interesting benchmarks to boot.

NV20 "technology" demos are going to be publicly shown at Winter Consumer Electronic Show and at MacWorld but no product details will be announced at these events.
February 27, 2001
Product launch with full product info and product-level promotion at Intel's Developer Forum.
