ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2 - R700 Preview: AMD’s Fastest Single Card

Posted in: Computers, Entertainment, Marketing | July 31st, 2008

Remember this slide?

The “Scalable design” block we already know about, that’s RV770 - we reviewed it last month. The 150W TDP $300 part is the Radeon HD 4870, and the 110W $200 part is the Radeon HD 4850, the two cards that have caused NVIDIA quite a bit of pain already. The smaller $100 part has a name, and a release date, neither of which we can talk about at this point, but it’s coming.

Today however, is about the 250W, $500 multi-GPU solution - internally known as R700. Hot on the heels of the Radeon HD 4800 series launch, AMD shipped out ten R700 cards worldwide, attempting to capitalize on the success of the 4800 and showcase the strength of AMD’s small-GPU strategy.

Your Sport Style - SONY Sport Headphones Review

Posted in: Gadgets | July 30th, 2008

This month’s toy is something I used 15 times (each time I went for a run) - a set of Sony sport headphones. I’ve fallen in love with running with my iPod Shuffle (ah - the podcast revolution has finally caught up with me) but the stupid white trendy headphones that Apple supplies kept falling out of my ears. On a whim, I bought a pair of Sony sport headphones; they are simply awesome. I know I’m in headphone heaven if - after a two hour run - I’ve forgotten they are in my ears.

Mp3, Headphones and Sport - Sony Sport Headphones

Posted in: Gadgets | July 30th, 2008

The Sony sport headphones that come with your portable mp3 player are not suitable to wear when you are constantly moving, they are uncomfortable to wear, do not stay in your ears and there is a tendency for the cable to get tangled and pull away from the player itself. Take a look at sports headphones that make use of noise cancelling technology, this is when the headphones block out ambient noise from outside. This can prolong your battery life because you don’t have to have the volume cranked up to the max, which can cause hearing damage over time.

Social Media Optimization: Expand Your Horizons Posted By : Steve Waganer

Posted in: Computers, Entertainment, Marketing | July 28th, 2008

Word of the mouth might not be enough if an effective networking has to be achieved. This is done with an active assistance of networking tools such as social book marking, video and photo sharing websites and an engagement with blogs which share the content through the use of RSS in the blogosphere. Other special blog engines which perform in the same way like Technorati are especially popular with the younger lot. Techniques like these help in building new opportunities for the marketers and for even those who are new entrants in this field. Social media optimization is basically, a set of methods for generating publicity through the social media, online communities and community websites. The method is similar to search engine marketing differing though, in a number of ways from it.

AMD SB750 arrives on the Foxconn A79A-S…

Posted in: Computers, Entertainment, Marketing | July 27th, 2008

Our first AMD SB750 equipped motherboard arrived this weekend courtesy of Foxconn. We have been working around the clock to dispel or verify the rumors about how a simple update to the SB700 SouthBridge could unlock the overclocking potential of the Phenom processor series. It turns out changes to the SB750 are actually significant and include a new low level link interface that AMD has named Advanced Clock Calibration. Along with the new ACC technology is a significant update to the AMD Overdrive Utility and required BIOS code changes for this new interface to operate properly.

In fact, there are so many changes that we will be back tomorrow with a full review of this new SouthBridge, the technology behind it, and an in-depth look at AOD version 2.1.2.

Does Penis Enlargement Pills Work?

Posted in: Health | July 21st, 2008

About 18 months ago I received an unsolicited email trying to sell a penis enlargement pill, this sounded like a dream come true but being the skeptic that I am and going by the theory of “if it sounds to good to be true it probably is” I refused to believe any sort of tablet or pump or traction device could actually make my penis a different size.

After a few days though my curiosity kicked in and I decided to embark on a test to find out whether the so called enlargement products actually produce any results. (Read the full post about ‘Does Penis Enlargement Pills Work?’…)

GSP/Avanquest - Our Living Oceans

Posted in: Computers, Entertainment, Marketing | July 20th, 2008

Billed as an interactive guide to the seas, Our Living Oceans comes in a box adorned with the badge of the National Museum Of Natural History, and there’s the Dorling Kindersley logo on there too. There’s little doubt that this is aimed at the educational market, and the fairly low price point may persuade some parents to fork out for it.

But there are problems here, and they all come down to the age of the program. For in spite of being originally released in 1999, Our Living Oceans - which unsurprisingly supports all versions of Windows from 98 upwards - is proudly on sale with Vista support listed on the box.

Camping out for the iPhone 3G…

Posted in: Computers, Entertainment, Marketing | July 16th, 2008

I’ve got this friend, his name is Mark, he works for a video game company - you may have heard of them. I made the mistake of hanging out with him a bit tonight.
He came over to check out progress on my HTPC, but then we quickly got to talking about the iPhone 3G and the best time to get them in the morning. Mark was convinced that they’d be sold out if we didn’t go early; the closest Apple store is bound to be crowded and he didn’t want to wait behind people to check out. His plan was hatched: go watch a midnight showing of Hellboy II, bring laptops and work from 2AM until 8AM when the AT&T store near us opened. Mark must be real good at his job because he convinced me (I still don’t quite know how). (Read the full post about ‘Camping out for the iPhone 3G…’…)

Samsung - F110 miCoach

Posted in: Computers, Entertainment, Marketing | July 10th, 2008

You may already be one of those people who run wearing a portable music player strapped to their arm, or a phone that can play music and take calls strapped to their arm. Or, indeed, you might use one of the several sports-related applications you can get for mobiles, or maybe a separate GPS-based sports tracking device.

Well, Samsung wants you to forget that lot. The F110 miCoach is an attempt by Samsung to make a sports specific mobile phone, and it can do the lot.
