Choosing the right motherboard is vital for the ultimate gaming machine.  The motherboard is the core piece of hardware which sets the standard of the computer's potential.  The most important components of the motherboard are its qualities and features.  ECS has provided us with the motherboard, the KN1 SLI Extreme, supporting AMD's Socket 939 Athlon 64 CPUs.  This board is packed with features for the hardcore user, but does it have the performance and reliability to match?  This can easily be determined by benchmarking it in a variety of tests to see if this motherboard is well worth its money.

To give you an idea of where this product stands relative to ATI's current line of next generation graphics chips, it begins at the entry-level with the X1300.  At the midrange, is the X1600 series.  The X1800 and X1900 series is where we progress to the higher to highest end graphics chips on the market.  The X1300 is an entry-level graphics card which incorporates the latest Shader Model 3.0 technology to allow you to play the latest games.  At this level, it is a matter of the kind of performance and features is offered at the budget price.

OCZ Technology is one of the choice memory provides when it boils down to performance.  They have been providing memory products for quite a while now and have a strong reputation.  Their memory is ideal for gaming enthusiasts as well as those looking for that extra performance boost from their computer system.  OCZ Technology also tailors their products to consumers on a budget as well no matter if you're looking for a simple memory upgrade or not.  No matter which product you choose, you know you are getting your money's worth.

An Ultimate Gaming Notebook?
 
If price were no object and you did not care much about weight or battery life, what is the fastest and most potent laptop you can build today?  The team at DigitalReviews Network set out to do just that and came up with arguably the fastest, street legal notebook - at least here in Australia. Come and meet the ITC METABOX 740u (Clevo D900T).

Introduction
Since the release of the ATI's next generation X1000 series, ATI's graphics cards have brought higher and higher performance...more pipelines, higher clock speeds, etc.  The enthusiasm for ATI's latest cards doesn't necessarily mean that the older X100 series cards are left in the dust.  In fact, it means more affordable lower prices for the older generation.

Let's face it, not everyone can keep up with technology always.  I've had my custom computer built less than 3 years ago and the switch from the AGP interface to PCI-Express passed so quickly that it makes my system seem old already.  The good news is that there are still AGP versions of graphics cards available.

Today, I will be reviewing the Sapphire ATI Radeon X800 GTO.  This product emphasizes overclocking on a budget.  If you are still stuck with the older AGP interface and love to overclock, this card may be for you.
