![]() Albatron Gigi Geforce FX5600EQ review @ MonkeyReview “As you can see from the benchmark results, the Albatron Gigi FX5600EQ didn’t really have the steam to deliver the kind of marks we had half expected to see. Something else that was realized during our testing was the lack of overclocking potential. We muscled with it for about an hour and the best that we were able to hit was a mere 331/410.”Read more at MonkeyReview.

Spire SP420B8 CopperStream Heatsink Review @ DarkVision Hardware "Things that can really make a difference in performance is the design of a heatsink, pins and fins all try to make the contact surface with air as big as possible and how bigger the surface how more it can spread his heat and copper does this better. Another very important thing is the fan, a powerfull fan will draw the heat away much faster than a weak fan. Also a good contact between the CPU and heatsink is important! Lapping or thermal compounds are used to make the surface as flat as possible. So between Copper , Aluminium with Copper base and Aluminium heatsinks with exactly the same design and fan the Copper one will be the best, and the Aluminum one the worst. But the difference will only be a few degrees..."![]() Read more at DarkVision Hardware.

KingMAX PC3200 256MB modules Reviewed @ Techseekers.net "Although these modules are not the absolute fastest performing modules around, they are damn close to it. They actually performed well above my expectations suprisingly close to the Corsair PC3200LL despite the loose memory timings, which goes to show that at high FSB these settings amount to only a little improvement. The system itself remained extremely stable at all speeds up to 225MHz"![]() Read more at Techseekers.
