I would expect a site called AMDZone to be somewhat partisan; but it still brought a smile to my face when they stated how reasonably priced they thought the 35W X2 3800 is at $364. :D The Conroe E6300 @ $183 seems more reasonable to me! They are probably thinking about how that will map to the pri...

I've actually put off my buy for about 6 months, since I saw that AM2 and Conroe was just around the corner. I'm probably going to go with an AM2 system. To me, it doesn't make sense to go with 939 anymore since it will be an obsolete platform soon, and if I want to upgrade or replace a part, it wil...

Another review...

Of the 350w... http://www.lanaddict.com/rev.php?ID=100&PAGE=1 They had a problem with it being undervolted on all rails, and that there is a discrepency between what stats are on the PS and what is on their web site. 6/10 from them. (Edit: I was wrong, that was the 300 that they reviewed...) Jason

Sapphire 9800 pro vs 9700 pro ultimate vs Tyan Tachyon 9700p

I'm looking for a relatively quick decision here. My workplace apparently gives me a "gift" after 5 years here, valued under $400. I've decided a new video card would be good to replace my Radeon 7200. Mostly, I use my PC as a DVD player, but I do play the odd game, and I want something that would b...
