The digital pen itself has a camera built into the end of it, next to the nib, which records the dots. This means it's quite a chunky thing and its cigar-shaped profile won't be to everyone's taste either but it is nicely made and it feels reassuringly expensive. Inside it can be found more fancy electronics - 856KB of flash memory for storing up to 40 pages at a time and a rechargeable lithium ion battery (non-user replaceable) that'll give you around three hours of battery life on continuous use (280 with the cap on and the pen turned off).

What they're not is powerful, with quite modest specs. The TurboCache is clocked at 350MHz for both the core and the memory, coupled with four pixel pipelines and three vertex shaders. The ATI specs are slightly lower at 325/300, with four pixel pipelines and two vertex shaders. The nVidia's specs look better on paper, but, as Alan Hanson would say, games aren't played on paper.

The man with an eye for a performance bargain therefore sits eyeing up X800 XL in the mid-range performance segment, and the man with a fat wodge to spend lusts after X850 XT Platinum Edition. With both arriving, complete with VIVO ability, to the AGP space via the medium of R481 and R430 with RIALTO, there's a fair bit for me to cover. I'll dive right in with a look at the pros and cons of native versus bridged GPUs...

With digital SLR cameras so affordable now, it's inevitable for techies and budding photographers alike to snap them up like hot cakes. But while the cameras are cheap, the lenses are not. But fret not, because you can actually buy used lenses instead! Used lenses are a real bargain but there are some things you should be aware before you buy them. And that's what this guide is all about!

Performance wise, there's one thing that stands out from the analysis and observation of P-M's scaling with nothing more than its base frequency: it's crying out for core logic to let it breathe and perform to its fullest; there's definitely plenty of extra performance to be had by pairing P-M with Alviso core logic. There's also extra performance to be had just by upping the CPU's bus clock, so the upcoming 200MHz Pentium-Ms, using Alviso, should give very fine performance, comparatively.

These days, there are so many workstation graphics card models that it has become quite impossible to keep up with the different configurations. Therefore, we decided to compile this comprehensive guide to over 50 workstation graphics cards. We hope this comparison will provide an easy reference for those who are interested in comparing the specifications of the various workstation graphics cards in the market as well as those already obsolescent or obsolete. We will keep this guide updated regularly so do check back for the latest updates!

In part two of our P4 roundup we compare 11 different P4 heatsinks made by Thermalright, Spire, Primecooler, Zalman, Evercool, Vantec and Titan. Using different fans at low and high speed we try to find the best bang for the buck, best performer and most silent HSF combo out there.

To keep it brief, if you want solid nForce4 SLI performance, good features and pricing that won't break the bank, either board will do. However, if you want the utmost control over your system and the chance to tweak like you've never been able to tweak before, Oskar Wu created one hell of a DFI mainboard for you. Both come recommended, but the DFI has strings to its bow that you will not find elsewhere. Go forth and purchase, there's absolutely no finer Athlon 64 mainboard at the time of writing.

TTGI USA (also known as Super Flower) became popular in Overclocking circles aproximately 3-years ago with the release of their TT-520SS 4-fan aluminum PSU. Enthusiast's loved the stability, rail adjustments, and especially the price. Today we look at the TT-600K04 600W Modular PSU for the evolving BTX standard...

With a number of decent contenders taking part, the hardest part of this group test was picking the final winners. We didn't divide the PSUs into different categories and although you can't really compare the passive PSUs to the fan cooled ones, we decided to keep the results together for easier comparison. The winner of the Editor's Choice award was won by a hair's breath, but taking everything into account the Tagan TG480-U01 took the honours. This was due to a combination of good test results, its wide range of connectivity options and a reasonable price considering what you get for your money.
