Gigabyte Maya II Radeon 9700 Pro Graphics Card
|
|
Dukgamers have fired up a review of Gigabyte's Maya II
Radeon 9700 Pro graphics card. Here's a snip :
|
|
With Nvidia still preparing their NV30 chip for release,
ATI are the only manufacturer supplying DirectX 9 graphics
cards, combined with the fact the Radeon 9700 Pro is the
fastest card available at the moment gives ATI a substantial
advantage in the marketplace. Gigabyte have definitely
produced an excellent card with their Maya II Radeon 9700
Pro. I would recommend the Maya II if you are looking
for a competitively priced Radeon 9700 Pro based graphics
card.

Radeon Mobility 9000
|
|
Not so long ago the very idea of gaming on a laptop seemed
ludicrous but thing are certainly changing. Bjorn3D were
lent a laprop from ATi with some impressive specs and
of course featuring the Radeon Mobility 9000.
|
|
The laptop uses a 2.4 GHz P4 with 256 MB memory. It has
a nice 14” screen which produces nice bright colors.
This notebook came equipped with a nice CDRW drive and
2 defective USB ports (review units .. they apparently
have to endure a lot of beating).

Blue 92mm LED Fan Review
|
|
ExtensionTech.net reassure us that even the more exotic
fan sizes are now being catered for in terms of looks
as they review a nice 92mm Quad LED model. Not quite sure
what the [H]ard|OCP plug's all about though??
|
|
Got a 92mm exhaust or intake fan on your case? Are you
a modder and gouge out your own blowholes? Well if you
did a 92mm one, you were probably stuck with a plain old
black fan. Now, finally Galaxy has put out some 92mm fans,
and even some 120mm fans I see. Are they better or worse
than the 80mm models? Join me as I showcase a blue 92mm
fan.

Gigabyte GA-7VRXP Rev. 2.0
|
|
Today our buddy TCash over at AthlonXP takes a look at
one of the more feature-rich offerings in the Socket-A
platform, the GA-7VRXP. Lots of extras are nice, but does
this motherboard hold its own in the performance catagory?
|
|
Gigabyte has been well known in the Socket A arena for
meeting these needs. Seldom can you find a motherboard
packed with such value as with the Gigabyte offerings.
So we have chosen to test a KT333 product from Gigabyte
called the GA-7VRXP Revision 2.0. Just keep reading to
see if this board has matured enough to justify a place
inside your case.
