AMD Radeon Card to beat GeForce

post from Ubergizmo on 01 July 2008 02:03:39 PM. © Ubergizmo

AMD aims to turn the tables on NVIDIA with a special edition Radeon HD 4800 card which was specially designed to pummel the GeForce GTX 280 into submission where sheer performance is concerned. The yet-unnamed hardware relies on a water cooling system to keep its core running at a minimum of 950MHz while the video memory will be stretched to accommodate 950MHz or more when it comes to overclocking. NVIDIA has already taken hold of the performance crown for many a year already, and the company on the whole seems intent on retaining it each year - of course, AMD still has some strides to go before it matches NVIDIA across all fronts as an equal.

LG 8 megapixel Flagship Phone

Word has it that LG will be working on a new touch screen phone which will outmuscle and outfeature its competition when it is finally released. Also known as the KC910, this handset will be the first few 8 megapixel cell phones from LG that feature Xenon flash, image stabilization, and automatic face detection. It would also have the processing power to record video at full speed in widescreen 720 x 480 resolution. The display will also see a fourfold jump in resolution, hitting a delicious 800 x 480 pixels. It won't cause your pockets to bulge outwards since it will pretty much empty your bank account by the time you order one, it also measures just 0.55" thin.

AMK Modular Sound Toy

It is generally agreed that boys tend to be more boisterous that girls, and during the growing up years, taking your tiny terror along to the local grocery store can be quite the experience (to savor or to forget, I leave that up to you). Why not offer the AMK modular sound toy that targets preschool children? This device enables kids to play and combine sounds by plugging in uniquely programmed music blocks, helping them stay attached to it without wandering around the aisles, breaking everything that can be broken while leaving you with a mountain of debt.
