A few days after our review of the AMD Phenom II X6 1090T, we received a call from AMD. The call was some commentary on the actual review (okay, really it was of complaints). The first thing that was said was that we were wrong in our premise that we needed more voltage to get higher clocks on the PII X6. At the time of this writing we cannot debate this claim. AMD maintains that their silicon is mature enough that the CPU does not need extra voltage to attain higher speeds. The claim about maturity is true; the Phenom II CPU is a very mature design (bordering on old in CPU terms). It is also being made in FABs that have the lowest failure rate in the world.

Online video chat is rapidly becoming a standard form of communication. Corporations frequently hold webinars as the most cost efficient form of long-distance communication. Every platform, from in-browser chat programs like Gmail's to the well-known Skype, is supporting video chat. Webcams are slowly turning into required accessories like keyboard and mice. However, most webcams are cheap and produce horrible image quality. Realizing this many companies have started offering HD webcams. Benchmark Reviews checks out FaceVsion's new TouchCam-N1 HD VideoCam to see if its 720p video support can offer a new refreshing experience with video chat.

Multimedia Player sind heute schon in sehr vielen Haushalten zu finden. Der Trend zu diesen Geräten ist eindeutig, da sie immer mehr Formate unterstützen. Multimedia Recorder machen sogar den DVD Rekorder überflüssig. Fantec hat nun allerdings einen Multimedia Player für unterwegs in seinem Sortiment. Allein schon die geringe Größe macht diesen Player sehr attraktiv. Passt er doch aufgrund seiner geringen Abmessungen (kaum größer als eine Schachtel Zigaretten) in fast jede Hosentasche und vor allen Dingen in jeden Koffer. Grade im Urlaub möchte man vielleicht den einen oder anderen Film sehen. Wir haben uns den Fantec HDMI-miniTV Player einmal etwas genauer betrachtet und auf Herz und Nieren getestet. Wie sich der HDMI-miniTV Player bei uns im Test geschlagen hat, erfahrt Ihr im folgenden Bericht. Viel Spaß beim Lesen......
