Retesting the Radeon HD 4830 @ Anandtech
Published: Monday, October 27, 2008 | By: WillAMD should have known better than to do so great with the new Radeon HD 4800 series, and then let some bad cards through. AMD cannot let sloppy work like this happen, or it is going to hurt them big time. Hope people read some of the updated reviews with the fixed BIOS to give the 4830 a chance.
"But this is still sort of a big deal. Not because it impacts the hardware people will buy, but because it invalidates the evaluations of many of the reviews that went live on launch day. You only get one chance to make a first impression, and the diminished performance from these errant review samples could leave a false impression on those who are most likely to keep up, read, and recommend graphics hardware."
AMD FTW and screwing the pooch at the same time.

Published: Wednesday, October 22, 2008 | By: WillOh yeah, it is time to start your gun shootin' bush burning path of destruction. Yeppers, Far Freakin Cry 2 is out and ready to blow the gamers mind once again. Africa is in trouble when I go to play. The guys over at the Big H have decided to give us a fun performance preview from our video card stand point.
"The much anticipated FarCry 2 is being released today! We have some apples-to-apples performance testing that gives a preview of how current-gen video cards from NVIDIA and AMD stack up. Today's video cards are capable of huge resolutions with dialed up quality settings."
Do you smell the bush Wildabeast has got cookin.

DFI Lanparty JR P45-T2RS mATX Motherboard Review @ Hardware Canucks
Published: Tuesday, October 21, 2008 | By: WillHere at the NinjaLane Dojo. We have gotten our gruby little hands on one of these super cool boards. Our masters of overclocking are still doing a number on this board. So stay tuned, and read someone elses torturing of this little cute marvel of a board.
"Hardware Canucks has reviewed plenty of motherboards over the last few months but this time we have something a bit different for you: the much anticipated micro ATX version of the P45-T2RS Plus board by DFI - the Lanparty JR P45-T2RS! The JR is a compact board designed for overclocking enthusiasts which means we have a typical DFI-style product but in a smaller package."
No motherboard was hurt during the testing trials. Well maybe.
