ASUS P4P800S-E
ASUS P4P800S-E is based on the 848P chipset
to capture the user base where they prefer Intel brand and would not want to
invest additional RAM modules where price is a factor. An additional feature
on this board is the Wi-Fi card that comes with the package. You can use
this card to login to an access point. The most interesting thing about it
is that it can be turned into a software access point !

865PE Overclocking wise, it has a almost
everything you need. FSB can be adjusted from 100 ~ 400Mhz at 1mhz stepping.
AGP can be FIX at 66. There are settings to PATCH like those like
PAT on 875P. This makes the 865PE performing at 875P levels.. In our
tests, we ran the P4 2.4C and overclocked it up to 3.1GHz at 260MHz
using a pair of
512M Corsair TwinX 4000-1024. You can click here to find out how far
we managed to get the system stable using this two sticks of RAM.

Corsair TwinX
1024-4000 We ran the dual sticks
at 250MHz,SPD (C3,8-4-4) and it works very well. What that means is that it
performs as rated. The next thing we did was to overclock it further than
the spec. ratings. We increased the FSB further to 255 and later 260. At
265, the system was unstable and Quake 3 failed at that speed. We decided to
lower it back to 260MHz and found it to be extremely stable.

Shuttle MN31N |
31 Mar 2003 -
Shuttle is probably well known for its small form factor
boards and its successful line of products. From our past experience, we
always feel that uATX board has nothing worth talking about. They probably
lack many nice features that are readily available on the ATX equivalent.
uATX boxes are especially popular in Asia as space is scarce. |
EPoX 4PEA800 |
29 Mar 2003 -
The board's features are quite standard except the BIOS
which allows a wide range of voltage adjustments and FSB. CPU Vcore
adjustments are necessary if you wish to overclock your CPU. The FSB range is from 90 ~ 250 at 1Mhz
stepping with mutiple options to run in async mode DDR333 and unofficial
DDR354. On the EPoX 4PEA800, you can select up to
+0.35v of the default voltage. That is to say a possible 2.00v can be
supplied to your P4 processor. AGP voltage up to +0.70v of default. e.g.
up to 2.2v from 1.5v. On DIMM voltage, EPoX 4PEA800 allows you to set it
up to +0.7v of default which is 3.2v. |

ThermalTake DuctingMod |
19 Mar 2003 - In traditional cooler
design, the center of the heat sink won’t have any air flow due to the fan
hub resists air turbulence. Therefore the air won’t be helpful the heat
transfer to the heat sink center . With DuctingMod, air can be blow into
the fan ducting and spread the cool air to the heat sink. By eliminating
the air turbulence, we not only achieve a better cooling capability, but
also decreased the noise level associated with it."

As more and more SATA HD
appears in the market, it is time for you to decide which controller card
or onboard integrated chipset SATA supporting chipset will you choose to
have the best performance.
There are a few
manufacturers of SATA supporting chipset. In this review, we are going to

ASRock K7S8X
SiS 746FX |
1 Mar 2003 -
K7S8X has standard features as it aims to
be a stable board with above average performance with a slightly lowly
tuned ram timings. As the board does not come with important settings like
RAS to CAS (2-2-5), it all depends on the manufacturer to tune it for
maximum compatibility. Although this board does not have a multiplier
control and voltage adjustments, the FSB range is amazing. You can choose
from 100 ~ 248 at 1Mhz steppings.

Mitsubishi
M320 Mobile Phone |
13 Feb 2003 -
M320 has one of the best standby time. We have been using the M320 in our
testing for the past one month and we find that it can last for almost 5
days if we use it sparingly, e.g. a 5 minutes call a day. Battery type :
Li-Ion, Battery capacity : 900 mA/h. In fact, we are impressed that the
phone actually allows us to set a timer where it will auto-on and
auto-off. We set it to turn on at 9am in the morning and auto shut-off at
11pm. We were initially skeptical about it but so far after using it for 1
month, it works flawlessly. This definitely helps to conserve power
consumption. for calls, there are Integrated vibrator and you set call
alert type selection : ring, silent, vibrate, vibrate & ring, vibrate then
ring. |
