  • Itanium II Benchmarks

    All they have to show is a small chart with numbers so of course this could just be the Matrix trying to throw us off the trail.

    "HERE'S AN INTERESTING chart. The guy who slipped it to me in the back lot of Fab 25 will get fired if I name him. So I won't"

  • Never Winter Nights Review @ Ninjalane

    Published: Tuesday, July 2, 2002 | By: Dennis

    This isn't really your normal Ninjalane review but rather a little something posted by one of our forum members, Reviler. He has taken a moment to post his take on the new game.
    "After experiencing a "Lost Weekend" to this game I decided to write up a review."

  • 2.80GHz Pentium 4 Available Soon

    Published: Tuesday, July 2, 2002 | By: Dennis

    Intel found a shortcut in their product roadmap and will be reaching the 2.80GHz mark by 3rd quarter. Price per proc is still pretty high but that only means the others will get cheaper.

  • Dual Channel DDR Chipset Preview @ [H]ard|OCP

    Published: Tuesday, July 2, 2002 | By: Dennis

    The Kyle and the OCP gang finally got a "hook-up" so maybe the skinned knee will start to heal. big grin smile DDR memory is really getting a lot of press lately and what could make it better? Let's see, how about two dual memory channels instead of one. Intel has gotten the answer and should be available later this year.

  • Man Robbed After Sucking Nipples

    Published: Tuesday, July 2, 2002 | By: Dennis

    Every guy likes a little nipple now and then but when some chix decide to lace them with a sleeping drug so they can rob their mark, that's just plain wrong.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't doing that also put the chix to sleep too?

  • No New News Yet.....

    Well I'm back from the weekend with a few less bottles of homebrew in the fridge, a pretty fun time at the River Festival, and a sun burnt girlfriend. I also have no tech news to post. sad smile

    So until I find something worthy to post I'm going to suggest you check out the Ninjalane World News section and send in what news or funny sites you wish to share.

    Next month VIA will start to sample a couple of new Pentium 4 chipsets. The P4X600 will be a dual channel DDR266/333 DDR design where as the P4X800 will take advantage of DDRII technology. I'm pretty sure this is unconfirmed so take the information will a grain of salt.

  • Change of Plans to Boost Demand

    Published: Friday, June 28, 2002 | By: Dennis

    This kind of thing is pretty rare for Intel but in the interest of moving product its not a bad idea. The only drawback is that Intel plans to delay their DDR333 chipset and increase shipments of 478 Celerons hoping to increase the lifespan of their current chipsets.

  • Soltek SL85DR2+L Review @ CPU3D

    Published: Friday, June 28, 2002 | By: Dennis

    One thing that sux about focusing on High Quality and Hard to Get hardware is that the US is the last country in the world to get shipments, and to complicate matters I must offend people when I write emails to companies since nobody ever responds to them.

    /Redmax applies Band-Aid to knee

    Seriously though this new board is the top of the line model from Soltek with all the bells and whistles. I did notice the absence of the Optional LPC 80 Port Debug LCD in this model and according to the review there is a lack of overclocking features most likely due to the added onboard features.
