New 3DXtreme Review!
Posted By: Dean Nottis
On: Thursday, February 10, 2005
Hey Everyone,
We've posted a new review on 3DXtreme.net - ATI X800XT PE vs. eVGA 6800 Ultra: The Battle at the Top.
Here's a clip:
"3DXtreme is extremely pleased to present our latest review. Thanks to our friends at both eVGA and ATI we are finally able to take a look two of the fastest stock AGP cards available on the market. We are not the biggest hardware review website on the internet so for us to be able to bring this type of review is only due to the generosity of the kind folks at each of the respective companies. Availability has been an issue with this latest generation of high end Video Cards, producing pieces that are able to run at blistering speeds is no doubt very difficult so understandably samples to a smaller site like us would is tough."

Hey Everyone,
We've posted a new review on 3DXtreme.net - Saitek Cyborg Evo Force Joystick.
Here's a clip:
"We have seen other products by Saitek in the past and have come to expect some cool quality gear. Following up from the Cyborg Evo comes the Force Feedback version we have for review today. Every fan of flight simulators likes to have not only a joystick with easy to reach controls, but confort for those long flights. Does the Cyborg Evo Force answer the call? Let’s find out…"

Hey Everyone,
We've posted a new review on 3DXtreme.net - Evercool WC-202 Watercooling Kit.
Here's a clip:
"About a year ago we had the opportunity of reviewing the WC-201 which was a decent all-in-one unit for watercooling. We did a little modding to the unit and brought it to a point where it would perform much better in it's capacity. We mentioned some of our concerns to Evercool and I'm sure others did also and they have since updated the unit with the WC-202 that 3DXtreme has the pleasure of reviewing today. Our main focus of this review will not be to look at it completely as we did the WC-201, but to highlight the updates and to show performance of the unit in our modded setup. So without further ado, let's take a look at the WC-202..."
