I've seen the CES article from AnandTech on ATI's OCUR technology, see: http://www.anandtech.com/tradeshows/showdoc.aspx?i=2662 This will allow you to view HDTV premium and PPV content on your HTPC system. Any news on other companies products or more on this one? I'm waiting with excitment.

Check out the following from MikeC at nvnews.net. I'm really excited as we get closer to this driver release. As nVIDIA continues to expand the feature set of SLI, this technology is really beginning to rock! Check out the Linux support as well, very interesting. Glad that they...

I'm working on making my computer more silent. Currently my MSI NX6600GT-TD128E is the loudest part of my system and I'd like to replace the stock HSF with another solution that would yield the best NOISE/TEMP ratio. I'm currently looking at the following three products: AC NV Silencer...

I've got an MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum/SLI motherboard, 6600GT PCI-e card and an Enermax EG565P-VE FMA 2.0 SLI-ready PSU. One thing I've noticed though, the second power rail is only available to peripherials and to the PCI-E bus through the PCI-E power connectors (the 6 pin connectors). Since...

I and many other MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum SLI users are experiencing a FSB bug (or HTT bug) that prevents overclocks higher than 220MHz on POST with the Winchester core. All others, NewCastle and Clawhammer, are Overclocking just fine. It appears to be a BIOS issue, as you can overclock while...

I'm looking at replacing the cheesy fan/heatsink on my NForce4 SLI northbridge. Be aware that it's in-line with my second PCIe slot and shouldn't be too tall so as to prevent SLI use. Suggestions? :confused:
