Fast-forward to Spring 2000, and we saw the refresh-phase of the Geforce256.

To evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of NVidia´s latest offering, we´ll be taking a look at the first graphics accelerator to appear with the Geforce2; the ELSA Gladiac. Let´s take a look and see how this card fares in this highly-competitve video card market.

Gigabyte 6OXM7E i815e Review

General 8068 Published 2000-08-04 12:19 by Philipp Esselbach 0

ViaHardware has posted a review on the Gigabyte 6OXM7E motherboard. Here´s a snip:

Because of the lack of BIOS FSB adjustment, we can assume the motherboard at least is jumpered for various bus speeds. But that assumption is dead wrong. The 60XM7E does in fact have jumpers to manually adjust the FSB, but they have been removed by Gigabyte! This, quite frankly, is ludicrous. As a consolation prize, Gigabyte offers Easy Tune III.
