[Testin da Cable]

check out the article

seems yummy...think it'll be slightly buggy and expensive tho

 

[Wij]

Hmm, I feel a new PC coming on. Wonder if it will actually beat the KT266A chipset tho ?

Ain't there a Hardware Forum for this ?

 

[old.Kez]

Yes Wij, lets enforce the law.

TdC, move this to the HW forum you wrongposting lamer

[old.Kez]

/me mumbles about someone changing that then :/

The nforce will have support for pc2700 ddr ram, normal ddr ram is pc2100. How much will nforce cost ?

 

[Yaka]

read some where $200 so might be £200 going by the "we always getting thr bum deal" rule

 

[stu]

Athlon's nearing the end of its shelf life, and no amount of new chipsets is going to change that

 

[Will]

New core is coming out with same slot A design. Should keep sales of the motherboards up...

 

[stu]

Yeah, I've seen the specs of it. Tbh it doesn't look that impressive...

 

[Embattle]

Its just gonna enable them to push the Mhz up.

 

[Testin da Cable]

good enough for me

Nforce in X-BOX2

Just heard MS are gonna use nforce in x-box2, as well as gforce with media player 8.0, it will be fixed box, with no upgrades possible.

BARGAIN :E

They're thinking of calling it the "HOME STATION"

 

[Embattle]

Er perhaps people should realise that such stuff is unlikely since the first xbox isn't even out yet and tbh future technology is likely to be more powerful.

It includes all that instruction set nonsense, and data pre-fetching. Pretty similar to the P4, but more instructions per clock cycle (slower frequency, but same power), with a shorter pipe-line. What else do you expect from a CPU?

perhaps, xbox2 is a bit misleading, the "home station" will probably be as powerful, but more of a PC than XBOX will be.

 

[old.Kez]

Its also undoubtedly resting on the success of the X-Box, which is probably the least (to my knowledge) covered 'next-gen' console in the make/out (DC, PS2, Gamecube, Xbox) - so any second generation console from microsoft is clearly speculation.

 

[Embattle]

Gamecube for me thanks...sticks to being a console

 

[Sir Frizz]

albeit aimed at a younger audience

 

[Embattle]

But having MK etc on it.

 

[Sir Frizz]

with green blood

 

[Embattle]

If it has no blood I won't care.

 

[Happy Go Lucky]

The gamecube is going to have some of the most blood thirsty adult games ever, APPARENTLY

must say I was getting a bit old for some of ninty's games.

Perfect Dark wasn't rated 18 for nothing

 

[Happy Go Lucky]

Homestation is going to be backwardly compatible with the "OLD" X-BOX

That'll be useful for my old x-box games which I'm bored of already

 

[bodhi]

Hmmmm. HomeStation, wonder where they got THAT name from.....
