(06/03) Albatron KX600 Pro VIA KT600 review by AMDboard - "Albatron Technology, an IT hardware solutions provider recently launched the KX600 Pro mainboard which is based on the latest VIA KT600 chipsets. This new board also supports AMD’s latest 0.13-micron processors capable of FSB400. This FSB allows the CPU to keep up with its high speed DDR400 counterpart. The KX600 Pro also provides enhanced multimedia performance with a 6 Channel Audio system and an AGP 8X interface. Finally, onboard LAN rounds out a very complete set of communications facilities. "
(06/03) MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR nForce2 review by HardwareZone - "MSI is just one of the many nForce2 motherboard vendors that has also moved forward with the new nForce2 Ultra 400 chipset variants and has completely phased out its older models based on the initial nForce2 SPP. The new motherboards sporting the nForce2 Ultra 400 are known as the MSI K7N2 Delta series with two models: the K7N2 Delta-L (nForce2 Ultra 400 + MCP2) and K7N2 Delta-ILSR (nForce2 Ultra 400 + MCP2-T). If you recalled the timeline during the original nForce2 SPP, MSI was actively marketing theirs as an affordable and simple nForce2 solution via the K7N2-L, whereas the IGP version was decked to the brim with features.

(06/03) MSI GeForceFX 5900 review by Hexus - "The GPU design means that NV35 drops to only processing 4 pixels per clock in a number of situations, effectively halving its pixel pushing performance (it keeps all its texturing performance by using 2 TMU's per pipeline). That occurs when doing regular colour and Z rendering, a rendering approach undertaken by the majority of titles on the market today. Future titles that render differently will allow NV35 to stretch its legs, using all 8 pixel pipelines to let you get the full benefit of all that pixel pushing and shader horsepower."
(06/03) Albatron KM18G nForce2 review by XBitLabs - "Integrated solutions are historically considered to be a forced step. For example, if you wanted sound on your PC but had no money for an external add-on sound card. Such unwelcome attitude towards them has quite weighty reasons: the production technologies were less advanced, and the companies had to save on transistors, i.e. actually on quality and features, to make integrated solutions cheaper (otherwise they would make no sense). Besides, some time ago the demand for such solutions wasn’t great: large companies which were the main customers of PC makers didn’t save on PCs and purchased them with external graphics and sound cards. Home PCs were bought mostly by computer fans who were ready to pay through the nose for an aggregation of metal, plastic and silicon."
(06/03) Leadtek A310 GeForceFX 5600 Ultra review by Bjorn3D - "Today, we are going to take a look at the high end of the A310 series, the WinFast A310 Ultra TD MyVivo, which as noted above is based on NVIDIA's FX 5600 GPU. As you may already know, this is a very capable midrange graphics processor that, as we will see, really flexes its muscle when GPU intensive features such as anti-aliasing and anisotropic filtering are enabled."
(06/03) Intel Pentium 4 3.2GHz review by Motherboards.org - "Intel is once again clearing the runway for their next premiere CPU as the race for desktop domination takes them back into the number one position upping the ante and putting AMD just one step behind them as the P4 3.2GHz is one blazing fast chip. The latest technology finds the Intel P4 CPU running at 3.2GHz with a 16X clock speed and an 800MHz Quad-Piped FSB that is now actually referred to as the PSB meaning Processor System Bus interface but hey FSB will do. There is really no new technology to expand upon as the CPU relies on the same core implementation as the other 800MHz P4 CPU's. Later this year Intel will reinvent the wheel again as they release their Prescott line of CPU's starting off running at 3.4GHz and featuring 15 new instruction sets and a 1MB CACHE."
(06/03) Gainward GeForceFX 5600 Ultra review by Digit-Life - "Today, we are going to take a look at the high end of the A310 series, the WinFast A310 Ultra TD MyVivo, which as noted above is based on NVIDIA's FX 5600 GPU. As you may already know, this is a very capable midrange graphics processor that, as we will see, really flexes its muscle when GPU intensive features such as anti-aliasing and anisotropic filtering are enabled."
(06/03) Gainward GeForceFX 5900 review by HardOCP - "It has been quite a while since we have reviewed a product from Gainward. Our last product review was a Gainward GeForce4 Ti 4200 video card back in May of 2002. The long delay between then and now is mostly due to all the troubles the NV30 and GeForceFX line have had. The long wait for the core itself combined with the long delays of getting products on the shelves has attributed to this long slumber with no new cards. Surely these long delays have put a slight dent in card sells with AIB (Add In Board) partners that sell graphic cards based on NVIDIA GPUs in the last year. During this time period AIB partners selling cards based on ATI VPUs have soared. However now with the advent of the NV35, NV34, and NV31 GPUs, we are starting to see a rise with GeForceFX product line sells."
(06/03) Prolink GeForceFX 5600 review by PCStats - "The Prolink GeForceFX 5600 Ultimate Golden Limited is probably the fastest stock clocked GeForceFX 5600 on the market right now, and comes equipped with a massive heatsink for looks. The speed comes thanks mainly to the faster TSOP-II Samsung 3.3ns DDR RAM which the card uses."
(06/03) PixelView GeForceFX 5600 256MB review by Guru3D - "The product we will be reviewing today is based on the nVIDIA GeForce FX 5600 series, produced around a GPU that is profiled as Cinematic GPU as it is capable of bringing cinematic visual effects on your PC with the combination of some brutal power and an excellent featureset. The CineFX GPU is of course a capable of utilizing DirectX9 Pixel Shaders 2.0+, Vertex Shader 2.0+ and OpenGL. Basically this product is in the mid-end range and offers with it's cut-down 4 pixel pipeline a lot of value for your money."
(06/03) ATi Radeon 9600 Pro review by Hexus - "Very recently, we've seen them go toe to toe with NVIDIA again with Radeon 9800 Pro, based on their new R350 silicon. R350 gives them a decent evolution over R300 (which is used in 9500 and 9700) with a boost to the shader hardware, some more efficiency when working with the Z buffer and a boost in clock (to keep things simple). It's a product that deserves the praise, given the performance. There's even a 256MB board too for those with a fat framebuffer fetish, which will do battle, for those with deep pockets at least, with NVIDIA's 256MB FX5900 Ultra."
(06/03) DFI LANparty KT400A VIA KT400A review by Tech-Report - "The latest manufacturer to produce a feature-packed, bundle-rich motherboard is DFI, a company known more for products suitable for corporate PC makers than hardcore PC enthusiasts. But corporate types are clearly at the bottom of DFI's priority list with its new LANParty line, which is squarely targeted at PC enthusiasts, case modding fanatics, and gamers who regularly drag their PCs out of the house. Today, we're looking at DFI's LANParty KT400A and NFII Ultra motherboards, which are based on VIA's KT400A and NVIDIA's nForce2 Ultra 400 chipsets, respectively. Does the LANParty line have what it takes to entice late-night, Mountain Dew-guzzling fraggers? Which Socket A LANParty board is the pick of the litter? Keep reading to find out."
(06/03) eVGA GeForce4 MX440-8X review by NVNews - "Since the launch of the Personal Cinema, NVIDIA has been slowly working on a new design, tweaking and improving the overall package. No doubt, NVIDIA has also been feeling the heat of ATI?s popular All-In-Wonder lineup and as such may have been quite eager to get the new iteration of the Personal Cinema out the door. eVGA.com is the first manufacturer to have launched a product featuring NVIDIA?s new Personal Cinema solution. eVGA?s current Personal Cinema offering is based upon a GeForce4 MX 440 8X AGP card."
