Live from CeBIT 2003: overclocking Pentium 4 over 4GHz, no extra cooling required
Overclocked processors are pet subject of any computer show. This time ASUS has drawn our attention by presenting a system on 3.06GHz Pentium 4 overclocked over 4GHz without any special cooling, but a usual Thermaltake’s fan:
AMD Athlon XP-M Preview Article @ Bjorn3D
"With a full line of Athlon Thoroughbred and Barton based mobile CPUs, AMD’s XP-M processors appear poised to attack the ever growing mobile market. The high performance, Barton based XP-M 2400+ and 2500+ are sure to provide a level of laptop performance that will rival many desktops. And the lower speed microPGA processors should provide a needed boost to AMD’s
inclusion in the trendy thin and light laptop crowd."

SiS748: a new AMD K7 chipset supporting 400MHz FSB and DDR400
SiS updated its AMD K7 chipset line with the new SiS748 supporting 400MHz FSB, DDR400 and AGP8X. I’m sure whether SiS’s 400MHz FSB support indirectly confirms rumours that AMD prepares to release such processors closer to May, or this is just a show of strength. Anyway this sounds prospective.
SiS748 Northbridge will be coupled with SiS963L Southbridge interconnected by 16-bit full-duplex 533MHz MuTIOL 1G bus. Besides, it will support USB 2.0/1.1, 5.1-ch. AC97 sound, 10/100Mb Ethernet and Home PNA2.0. Shipment dates are not availavble at the moment.

"We have finished out latest article, a Radeon 9500/9700 vs. GeForceFX 5800 /Ultra vs. GeForce4 Ti video card roundup. The article is in German ( I don´t have the time to translate 45 pages :-) ), but the 30 pages benchmarks section with 600 benchmark numbers doesn´t need any translation. Please, check also page 12 and 13 for anisotropic filtering and anti-aliasing comparisons with screenshot from all official and unofficial modes"

Live from CeBIT 2003: Albatron´s Springdale-based motherboard
The live report from CeBIT 2003 in Hanover continues. This time our Alexander sent us a photo of Springdale-based PA865PT mobo from Albatron.
According to the spinning cooler, this is a working sample also combined with 3.0GHz Pentium 4 with 800MHz FSB and Albatron’s FX5200 graphics card. Let’s hope these will arrive to retail shops in the near future...
Chaintech Zenith 7NJS nForce2 Motherboard @ MonkeyReview
"Today, MonkeyReview is diving into a new world of fun. With that said, on the block today, we have one of Chaintech’s most popular motherboards, the Chaintech Zenith 7NJS. This will not only be our first look at motherboards, but also our first glimpse as to what Nvidia’s nForce2 chipset has to offer. Most of you know that the initial nForce chipset made high claims and delivered a flat, non competitive chipset, which very few desired. Most of you also know that the nForce2 Chipset has been a very different story."
