Shuttle AB60/RS Review @ Extreme Overclocking
Published: Tuesday, July 1, 2003 | By: Dennis"This section is going to be very short because we encountered a few issues or actually one major issue.
--snip--
we tried many other FSB's. All of which never worked so it was totally impossible to overclock this motherboard. We even tried our 3.2 and 3.0 processors and still had no luck."
They are talking about how this board has FSB adjustments up to 233Mhz but when set at 233Mhz it was still running at 200Mhz. Thats what you get for buying a Shuttle. -

Aero 7+ Review @ PC Abusers
Published: Tuesday, July 1, 2003 | By: Dennis"It seems new heatsinks never stop coming out. But also it seems processors always get hotter and hotter. Then for those of us who overclcock, well, we always want the best or something at least cool looking that also does a good job at cooling the cpu. Enter the unique Coolermaster Aero 7+ and it's fan. Yes, that fan. What has taken the people who make these fans so long to make one like this:"
Copper heatsink and a big blower, what more could you ask for?
Here is our review of the Aero 7+ for comparsion. -

Asus P4P800 Deluxe Review @ Digital-Daily
Published: Monday, June 30, 2003 | By: DennisI don't normally post Asus board reviews but this Springdale enabled board looks kind of fun.
"This board is the first in the new AI series (stands for "Artificial Intelligence"). This motherboard offers powerful expansivity options as well as quite interesting "Hyper Path" mode that gives a considerable system performance boost. "
I hope the board is better than the movie. -

Corsair Hydrocool Review @ NordicHardware
Published: Monday, June 30, 2003 | By: DennisNordicHardware has posted their review of the new watercooling box from Corsair called "Hydrocool". Personally I'm not a fan of the external watercooling units but I hear they are actually pretty easy to use.
"The point of using HydroCool is that you won't have to cut or make a fuss with your chassis to get water cooling, and the constructers have really done a fine job in making this possible. The whole system is built inside a relativily small box which is set next to the computer." -
Abit IS7 Review @ Intelforums
Published: Monday, June 30, 2003 | By: Dennis" We chose to use the Speed Racer setting for testing the 'high-end' GAB performance, as the F1 mode refused to run stable on our system. Instability including random refusals to boot, fsb's being reported at half of what they were set to in the bios, and general Windows instability. To ensure it wasn't the RAM, we tried different memory modules, and the results were the same. Perhaps F1 stability is something that will be addressed in future bios revisions?"
Go speed racer go!.

DFI LanParty NF2 Ultra Review @ ModFathers
Published: Monday, June 30, 2003 | By: Dennis"The Packaging however is a different kettle of fish. The box is very big, nearly twice the thickness of a normal motherboard package. Its green with a lame picture on it, but who cares, its what inside that counts."
Lame picture huh? Well despite their comments this is a very solid motherboard. I'd suggest that you check back a little later today there might be some "eye-candy" fer ya.
