AMD Phenom II X4 940 Overclocking Performance
TechSpot takes a look at the AMD Phenom II X4 940 Overclocking Performance

Just two weeks ago AMD launched their new Phenom II X4 processors. As we learned in our review, the flagship model also known as the Phenom II X4 940 performs on par with its Core 2 Quad competition, which comes as great news for AMD who was severely lagging behind Intel before this launch.

Now, when it comes to overclocking, it's not how far you can increase the clock speeds that matters the most, but rather how well the processor scales and therefore performs once overclocked.

We will find that out as we push the Phenom II X4 940 through a series of tests running at 3.60GHz. It'll also have to face some fierce competition from a range of Intel Core 2 and Core i7 processors. And of course, we'll illustrate you on what was involved in getting this overclock out of the Phenom II X4.

Akasa have released a very large number of PSUs during the past few months, taking a piece of the pie from every market category. We have also received a large number of their PSUs to review, ranging from low-priced products aiming for the best possible value to efficient and silent mid-range PSUs to expensive enthusiast-oriented units featuring a monstrous output.

ITreviewed posted a review on the nVidia GeForce GTX 295 video card

No matter what game you'll play with the GeForce GTX 295, you'll play it at dazzling frame rates, very high resolutions and the very best in image quality. Of course, the GTX 295 is totally wasted unless the rest of your machine is up to speed and you don't have a monitor running a native resolution of at least 1920x1200 pixels. It's also one of the loudest cards we've ever heard. But, it outperforms ATI's Radeon HD 4870 X2. If only the best will do, you've just found it. The rest of us will struggle to justify the ludicrous asking price.
