AMD K7 Athlon Benchmark results!!		2nd Sep 1999, 0533hrs
Dying to know just how fast is the K7 Athlon? I guess most of you have read reports on how fast this processor can go. Anyway, I've been working on this baby for the past few hours pumping out as many benchmarks as possible. Just to wet your appetite for tonight, here are some preliminary benchmark results to keep you busy. Do compare it with your current Pentium-II/!!! system to see just how much more you can get with the Athlon. The tests were ran using Mitsubishi PC100 SDRAM (128MB), Microstar TNT2-64 M8808 (32MB) AGP and IBM Deskstar 22GP DJNA-371350 (13.5GB). Benchmark Score ZD CPUmark 99 47.7 ZD FPU Winmark 2710 ZD Winstone 99 v1.1 24.5 3DMark99 - 3DMarks @ 800x600 4787 3DMark99 - CPU 3D @ 800x600 9213 Quake II map1.dm2 @ 800x600 50.6 fps Quake II map2.dm2 @ 800x600 49.3 fps Quake III q3demo1.dm3 @ 800x600 41.8 fps Quake III q3demo1.dm3 @ 800x600 50.3 fps Well, that's all for tonight folks. Tomorrow I shall be running more benchmarks and hopefully, I can give you the full review of the K7-500 with the MS-6167 motherboard in a few days time. I am indeed very impressed by its performance and stability. The tests went very smoothly, and so far, not even a hint of the dreaded blue screen or the famous GPF errors. I just hope AMD can bring this gem into full volume production soon, and give Intel a nice kick on the butt. For once, AMD now knows how it feels to be the King of the Hill. And let's hope AMD will continue to stay there. But for now, I have to catch some sleep. - Asst. Reviews Lab Manager CPU-zilla

New CD-RW drive from Plextor		31st Aug 1999, 0205hrs
We just got our hands on the new PlexWriter 8/2/20 (internal version). This baby comes with a generous 4MB buffer (needed for the 8x write capability) and it uses the SCSI interface. This made in Japan drive does seem to pack a lot of punch. Well, stay tuned as we test out this baby. - Asst. Reviews Lab Manager CPU-zilla

Portable Flat Panel Speaker		28th Aug 1999, 0200hrs
Ever wanted to own a pair of real cool looking, totally flat speakers? Well, we guz just got our hands on the all-new Portable Flat Panel Speaker by Billionsound. The NXT Technology and the flat speakers is the trademark of New Transducers Limited. The dimensions of the speaker made it very potable. It is especially convenient for those people who use Laptops if they find that the speakers of their laptop are not loud enough. Moreover, the whole plane takes only a small driver to create wave vibration that generates noise-free, clear and 360 degrees surrounding quality sound. It is also appropriate to use it for your home desktop. Not only can it be placed on your desktop table, it can also be hung on the wall if there is not enough space for the ultra thin speakers. These speakers can also be connected to a CD-Player, a Walkman or even to a MP3 Player. This is one more reason that you should go for these speakers if you were looking for an ultra thin, space saving and portable one. The speakers will be available in Funan & Sim Lim Square (esp. in the notebook shop -4th floor) and suggested retail price is $59.00. -Asst. Reviews Lab Manager CPU-Zilla
