OcPrices.com has posted a review on the Albatron FX5600P Turbo video card.

nVidia's last major GPU series, the GeForce4, was incredibly successful due to the ability to handle several different price points. You had the GeForce4 Ti4600 on the high-end; the GeForce4 MX on the low-end, and the GeForce4 Ti4200 which occupied that sweet powerful-but-affordable middle-class. While the fastest GPU's are nice to dream about, their $400 tags keep them a bit out of reach. Its these middle-range cards that most of us usually end up actually purchasing. When it came time to finally retire the venerable Ti4200 as nVidias middle child, the FX5600 came in for the replacement. Today Ive got one such card from Albatron, and after using their Ti4800SE Ive got hopes that this will be another stellar overclocking champ. Can it fill the Ti4200s insanely popular shoes?

On Monday morning, Intel announced a new 3.06-GHz Xeon processor designed for dual-processor servers and workstations. The chip doubles the onboard L3 cache over previous-generation 3.06-GHz Xeon chips, raising it from 512K to 1MB, and Intel is claiming that the extra onboard cache should boost performance by more than 15 percent, though that claim hasn't yet been verified. The new chip also has a 533-MHz system bus.

Techseekers.net has had a look at some more PC3200 memory.

Although these modules are not the absolute fastest performing modules around, they are damn close to it. They actually performed well above my expectations suprisingly close to the Corsair PC3200LL despite the loose memory timings, which goes to show that at high FSB these settings amount to only a little improvement. The system itself remained extremely stable at all speeds up to 225MHz
