MV Ixius GeForce Go 6800 notebook @ TrustedReviews

“To be honest, it would have been hard for MV to come up with a better set of supporting components for the GO 6800 chipset. Sitting in the CPU socket is an Intel Pentium 4 running at 3.6GHz, while there’s 1GB of DDR2 memory Corsair branded memory no less! The 60GB Hitachi hard disk seems a little small for a device this size, especially considering the target market. The hard disk does spin at 7,200rpm, so performance should be good. However, if you are serious about your disk performance, MV offers a 120GB RAID 0 array option on the Ixius, although pricing hasn’t been confirmed for this yet.”



Gigabyte K8VT800 Pro Review @ PCmoddingmy

“Priced at $115 (RM435), the Gigabyte K8VT800 Pro motherboard can be considered as a good buy since it has decent performance even though it loses to nForce III in terms of memory and CPU tests, but it performs quite well in gaming benchmarks. It also comes bundled with good software, utilities and a package bundle. If you are looking for a budget board, and do not intend to overclock your system too much, then this is a good board for you to consider getting.”
