Mid-End Heatpipe Cooler Shootout
Digit-Life posted a Mid-End Heatpipe Cooler Shootout

Today we'll focus on 21 Mid-End coolers and their tests. It won't be a traditional shootout-we don't want to wear our readers out and distract them from their preholiday cares. So we'll try to keep away from purely technical details, paying more attention to practice. We hope that our shootout will help you choose the right cooler in the new year.

DDR2-800 vs. DDR3-1333. Does DDR3-1333 Make Sense?
Digit-Life posted a comparison review between DDR2-800 and DDR3-1333 memory

We're going to compare performance of two processors in combination with different memory modules: standard DDR2-800 and higher-clocked DDR3-1333. The Core 2 Extreme QX9650 processor (1333 MHz FSB) will be tested with one and the same motherboard that supports both memory types (Foxconn X38A). And the Core 2 Extreme QX9770 processor (1600 MHz FSB) will be tried with two motherboards, different in supported memory types.
