Court Reverses Pro-Spam Rule

California federal court has dissolved a restraining order against SpamCop.net, just a day after ordering the antispam service to stop warning warn ISPs about complaints of spam coming from their networks.Judge Saundra Brown Armstrong of the U.S. District Court in the Northern District of California dissolved a temporary restraining order against IronPort Systems, which owns SpamCop, according to a statement Wednesday from IronPort.The judge granted the order Monday in a case pitting IronPort against online marketing company OptInRealBig.com. Attorneys for OptInRealBig asked for an immediate injunction against SpamCop, saying SpamCop's reports have caused OptInRealBig to lose contracts with ISPs and customers.After analyzing opposition papers filed by IronPort after the injunction, the judge decided that "the interests of justice favor dissolution" of the order, the company says.IronPort purchased SpamCop in November 2003 from Julian Haight, the founder and lone operator of the service. At the time of the purchase, IronPort, which sells networking hardware for managing and securing e-mail traffic, promised to invest about $1 million to upgrade the service and keep it running.IronPort is thankful for the ruling and the "expedited consideration of its (opposition) papers," the statement says. A preliminary hearing will take place next week. IronPort is optimistic that it will prevail in the case, according to an IronPort spokesperson.

Why Intel is investing in Social Computing

In my post Testing Business Value in Social Networking I shared our results of extensive exploration to determine if there is value in adding professional networking for employee use. The exploratory results moved us forward to creating a modular and integrated social framework to consolidate current "islands" of blogs, forums and wikis and add new capabilities such as the people connection that professional networking brings. We are 1.5 weeks away from launching the first phase of bringing robust social tools in-house to augment and improve the way our employees connect and collaborate today. I get asked a lot about "Why" we are doing this and the value we believe we will bring to Intel. I wanted to share with you the reasons.

Intel Pentium 4 2.53 GHz

This is Intel's latest processor (2.8 GHz Pentium 4 is being launched as we speak, which should result in a significant price cut for the 2.53 GHz). The early Pentium 4's were criticised for not being powerful enough. However, with clock speeds exceeding 2 GHz, the Pentium 4 has surely confounded those critics. In the pictures above you can see the Intel D845GBV motherboard, with the tiny Pentium 4 2.53 GHz at the top, which fits into the microPGA478 socket. It is made using the 0.13 micron process (so the transistors are packed more closely). This is signifcantly smaller than the first generation of Pentium 4s. The D845GBV board is an integrated one, featuring graphics, sound and also 4 USB 2 ports (which can be expanded to 6). It supports bus speeds of 400 or 533 MHz. If you prefer to bypass the integrated graphics you can just insert an AGP card (upto 4X). However, for most purposes the on-board graphics seemed fine. Also this motherboard supports cheaper DDR266 SDRAM memory. It is nice to see that you can get genuine Intel motherboards that do not need very expensive RAMBUS memory! I tested the motherboard with 512 MB DDR266 memory and a WD 100GB 7200rpm IDE drive. There are of course the usual standard features on the motherboard, like support for Ultra ATA 100 drives and PS/2 connectors. However, I could not get my Adaptec 2940U2W's bios to boot on the motherboard (although once booted up SCSI devices were recognised).

Foxconn launched “Flaming Blade” - “Flaming Blade GTI”

Posted on 06 March 2009 by Ventus
To build “mighty MBs for OCers and hardcore gamers” is the spirit that Foxconn Quantum Force (i.e. QF) team has been continually striving for.
The global economic downturn nowadays affects maybe people’s consumption habit but doesn’t restrain enthusiasts’ passion on lusting computing performance. This is the core motive to inspire QF team to develop Flaming Blade (i.e. FB) and Flaming Blade GTI (i.e. FB GTI) another two models listed in enthusiast criteria but with competitive price.
“Wanna get a taste of the ultimate performance sensation but a 599 GBT is really out of reach? Why not stop dreaming and get your hands on a 911GT right now? Flaming Blade is made to amaze you that ultimate performance can be so approachable.” said a QF product manager when he was describing FB’s Market positioning.

Kentsfield Processors: Core 2 Extreme QX6700 and Core 2 Quad Q6600

Intel introduced the first dual-core processors on Core microarchitecture in mid summer. In fact, not so much time has passed since then, especially from the IT industry standpoint. However, Intel is ready for the next step forward: the launch of new CPUs with quad-core design based on the same Core microarchitecture!
It wasn’t that hard for Intel to introduce Core microarchitecture into the quad-core processor design. They used the same approach they worked with in the times of Presler CPU. In fact, Kentsfield is actually none other but a combination of two Conroe (Core 2 Duo) dies within the same processor package. In other words, the new quad-core Intel processor is a combination of two dual-core CPUs with Core microarchitecture.

Intel Atom N270 processor set for Netbooks

The Atom N270 is quite different in this respect: It has a ready-made market. The N270 will go into an existing market segment--Netbooks--and will replace the popular Celeron in many cases, making this Atom potentially a high-volume chip. For example, currently, the Eee PC and Intel Classmate (technically Netbooks) use the Celeron. Versions of both these compact notebooks are slated to use the Atom. Based on Intel's description of the market, this category of Netbooks will use the N270 (see graphic).
Though the die (the actual processor inside the chip package) is the same for both the Atom Z5XX series and N270, the packaging and chipsets are different (see graphic). The N270 will use the 945GSE and 82801 (ICH7M) core logic. A version of this chipset (with 950 integrated graphics) is used in low-cost notebooks and desktops today. The Celeron has traditionally used the lower-end 915 chipset.
So, the way it shakes out is: the Atom Z5XX series for MIDs; the N270 (and upcoming processors) for Netbooks; the Celeron for low-cost notebooks. Note: the Atom Z5XX series includes a single-chip with integrated graphics called the Intel System Controller Hub.

The current socket 775 style pinless processor

As you can see, the array of pins which connect the processor to the motherboard are now attached to the socket and they are very fragile and easily bent. All socket 775 motherboards feature the metal shim (load plate) pictured above, which serves the dual purpose of locking down the processor once it is installed and protecting the pins from harm when it is not. Most boards also implement a protective plastic cover which fits over the load plate when no processor is present, hiding the pins completely. The lever secures the shim in place, holding the processor when it is installed.
It is extremely important that the processor be installed slowly, carefully and vertically into the socket, and removed the same way. Any careless handling will damage the pins, and may leave you with a useless motherboard.
Now its time to describe exactly how to install one of these chips correctly. It's not the hardest thing in the world, but it pays to be careful and follow a predetermined set of steps.

nVidia to launch nForce 790i chipset in 2nd quarter of this year

Second Quarter of this year will see nVidia’s next generation nForce 790i chipset. This new chipset will use nVidia’s C73 northbridge and MCP55 southbridge and hence will support Intel Processor with FSB up to 1600MHz. Other features offered by chipset include 3-way SLI, Hybrid SLI and support for DDR3 memory. nVidia will release this as a high-end option, thus it will attract serious gamers who don’t mind spending extra bucks on latest technology. This chipset will be out in two versions, nForce 790i Ultra SLI and nForce 790i SLI. Ultra SLI will come with better overclocking options and will support SLI memory up to DDR3 2000, other than that there is no difference between these two.
Most of the motherboard makers have decided to stop (or atleast delay) development of motherboards based on recently launched Intel-based nForce 780i chipset. It has not performed well in the market as there are no significant feature improvements over the previous nForce 680i.

ASUS ROG Rampage Formula

Every once in awhile, something comes along that is simply brilliant in its simplicity. For ASUS, that time could be now. ASUS plans to continue in their tradition of early adoption of new chipsets with a mid-February release of their upcoming Rampage Formula motherboard, a board that will make use of Intel's recently announced X48 Express chipset and DDR2 memory. Although DDR3 has been available for purchase for many months now, exceedingly low DDR2 prices have made purchasing 4GB or even 8GB of memory quite affordable - the latter still costing less than 2GB of good DDR3 memory. Coupled with the fact that the Rampage Formula provides a relatively easy upgrade path for current DDR2 owners, we can see why this board will be an attractive choice for anyone looking to build their next high-performance gaming system.
Like other recent offerings from ASUS, the Rampage Formula is part of the Republic of Gamers (ROG) line of motherboards, aimed squarely at the enthusiast looking to tune all levels of system control in order to extract every ounce of possible performance. We were a little surprised to see that ASUS seems to have needed very little engineering work in order to make use of Intel's higher-binned X48 chipset - the Rampage Formula and the currently available Maximus Formula (which uses the X38) share almost everything in common with the exception of the Northbridge. On one hand this makes sense, as the X48 is little more than an X38 binned for ultimate performance; on the other hand we would have liked to see a few additional improvements in component choices and layout

Intel Processor

The Intel processor chip will also have a protective cover. That's the black thing on top. Carefully remove this. (It helps if you have a ground wrist strap. But I didn't have one when I did this... I just made sure I touch the metal case (of my rack) before I handled the cpu. Basically, discharge yourself of any static electricity.

Latest Processor

The 45nm Hi-k Intel Xeon processors are compatible with server platforms using the Intel 5000 chipset family. In addition, Intel is launching three platform solutions to support 45nm processors, including here the Intel 5400 chipset-based platform (previously codenamed "Stoakley") that is optimized for high-bandwidth applications such as high-performance computing (HPC), the Intel 5100 Memory Controller Hub chipset and Intel ICH-9R I/O controller (previously codenamed "Cranberry Lake"), which are cost-optimized solutions that support either one or two processors and also provide reduced power consumption using native DDR2 memory, as well as the Intel 3200 chipset-based platform (previously codenamed "Garlow") that is specifically designed for single-processor entry servers. Furthermore, Intel’s 45nm Hi-k Xeon processors also extend performance-per-watt characteristics by delivering an improvement of 38 percent over its previous-generation Quad-Core Xeon 5300 Series processors.The move from 65nm to 45nm involves more than just a shrink of current chip designs. The processors also include such additional features as new Intel Streaming SIMD Extensions 4 (SSE4), which are 47 new instructions that speed up workloads including video encoding for high-definition and photo manipulation, as well as key HPC and enterprise applications. Furthermore, they come packed with enhanced Intel Virtualization Technology, as the virtual machine transition (entry/exit) times are improved by an average of 25 to 75 percent through hardware with no changes to software required.Other additional features include a fast divider that roughly doubles the speed over previous generations for computations used in nearly all applications through a technique called Radix 16, a wider 128-bit shuffle unit that improves the performance for SSE-related instructions that have shuffle-like operations. This feature will increase performance for content creation, imaging, video and high-performance computing

Asus' P5Q and P5Q3 Deluxe motherboards

Consistency is a hard thing to come by in this industry, but year after year, Intel has managed to deliver excellent mid-range core logic chipsets. Since its launch last spring, the P35 Express has been the best bang-for-your-buck Core 2 chipset on the market�a position inherited from its P965 predecessor, which was the LGA775 platform of choice in its day. The P965's crown, of course, was a hand-me-down from the Intel 915P chipset that came before it, which in turn, well, you get the picture.

Foxconn 945G7AD Motherboard

Foxconn recently shipped a new series of motherboards, supporting Core2Duo chipsets, with an integrated VGA chipset onboard. While this may not be the fastest motherboard around, we are eager to see how well it performs with the 945G/ICH7R chipset combination. We will of course be comparing this motherboard with other motherboards based on the 965/975 chipsets.
Foxconn C51XEM2AA is based on Intel's 945G chipset, which supports Intel®Core™2Extreme, Core™2Duo, Pentium®4EE, Pentium®D, Pentium®4, CeleronD processors for Socket LGA775. It features 1066/800/533MHz(FSB), dual-channel un-buffered DDR2 667/533/400 x 4DIMMs support, up to a maximum of 4GB.

ASRock 775Dual-VSTA

Introduction:We know Asus and Gigabyte being the top notched preferred motherboards for PC enthusiasts. Some of us may be aware of the fact that the manufacturing arms of Asustek cover Asus, Gigabyte and ASRock with different market segments, marketing and channel of distributions allowing Asustek to capture better than 50% of the global market.It was about a year ago when Intel introduced Core 2 Duo. PC enthusiasts were overjoyed with the new King in CPU performance over AMD A64 X2 series processors. At the same time, ASRock came out with 775Dual-VSTA mainboard to greet PC enthusiasts who wanted to keep using their DDR1 and AGP graphic card and to taste the Core 2 Duo performance at the same time. The low cost ASRock 775Dual-VSTA was more than welcome when it could also run at 300 FSB to give that extra kick.ASRock continues this successful recipe in the continual use of the Intel 945P chipset allowing the use of DDR2 and PCIe into 2007. A year later, we are looking at the latest from ASRock, ConRoe 1333-DVI/H, supporting 1333FSB to meet the latest Intel processor released last month (July).

ASUS P5B Deluxe WiFi-AP Edition

A few weeks ago, we reviewed the high end board from ASUS, the ASUS P5W DH Deluxe featuring the 975X chipset. Today, we take a look at its little brother the P5B Deluxe based on the 965P chipset. This motherboard supports the most powerful and energy efficient Intel® Core™2 processors. It features the Intel® P965 chipset and supports DDR2 800MHz dual-channel memory architecture.

With exclusive innovative tools – AI NOS™, AI Gear and AI Nap – users can adjust operation speed according to their specific needs. This motherboard is a cool and stable platform that delivers extreme performance, minimum noise and maximum power saving!

Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9650

To stay at the top of our game we really only had two choices, the QX9650 or QX9770 from Intel. Both of these Core 2 Extreme processors feature the same pair of dual core Penryn dice, providing a total of 12 MB L2 cache. The so called Wolfdale “core” also features a 45nm manufacturing process using intel’s latest “High-K” gate oxide to reduce power consumption and decrease transistor switching time (for higher clock speeds).
Clocked at 3.2 GHz and using a 1600 MHz FSB data rate, the QX9770 would appear to be the clear performance choice over the 3.0 GHz, FSB-1333 QX9650. However, our QX9650 had two advantages over our QX9770: Better overclocking and lower list price.Though we can’t guarantee anyone else will have the same overclocking experience, the fact that our QX9650 has proven itself capable of overclocking 100-200 MHz farther than our QX9770 indicates that luck-of-the-draw plays at least some part in Intel’s validation process. And yes, we do plan on overclocking. Meanwhile, the QX9650’s lower list price leaves a little extra room in our budget for additional components.

Intel DX48BT2 Extreme Series Motherboard

The Intel DX48BT2, formerly codenamed Bone Trail, is targeted at enthusiasts and gamers.It is the first Intel board to support 1,600MHz frontside bus (FSB) — the interconnect between processor and RAM — for even faster memory access and extra room for overlocking.The Intel DX48BT2 will support the latest Core 2 Extreme processors, including the new quad and dual-core chips, as it utilises the X48 Express chipset.Of the four memory sockets, two support up to 4GB memory at a whopping 1,600MHz speed but if all four sockets are used the board will support up to 8GB but at slower speeds of 1,333/1,066/800MHz.Gamers will have a lot of ports at their disposal as the board has two Firewire ports, 12 USB ports, three PCI-e slots (of which two are full-speed PCI-e 2.0 slots), 2 PCI expansion slots, and six SATA 3.0 Gbps (gigabits per second) ports.The board also supports Intel Matrix Storage Technology which allows multiple hard disks to be used in a RAID (Redundant Arrays of Inexpensive Disks) configuration either for faster speed or increased reliability.

Abit's AB9 Pro and AW9D MAX motherboards

ABIT HAS BEEN ON the comeback trail since its acquisition by USI, and we've been impressed by the company's recent AN8 32X and AT8 32X motherboards for Athlon 64 processors. Intel's Core 2 Duo has become the processor of choice for PC enthusiasts, though, and we've yet to see what a reinvigorated Abit can do with an LGA775 socket.Interestingly, Abit's most famous boards have been for Intel processors. Classics like the BH6 and BP6 essentially defined the enthusiast-oriented motherboard genre, making us particularly eager to see how Abit can complement the Core 2 Duo.The most intriguing members of Abit's Core 2-compatible motherboard lineup are the AB9 Pro and AW9D MAX. The former is the most affordable P965 board to feature the ICH8R south bridge, and it comes with all the hardware monitoring, fan speed control, and overclocking options you'd expect from an Abit board. For those looking for a little something extra, the AW9D adds CrossFire support and marks the resurgence of Abit's high-end MAX brand. Read on to see if either of these boards has the potential to become another classic.

Intel D975XBX (i975X) Motherboard

The uber HOT FedEx lady just dropped off the latest Intel D975XBX motherboard and I snapped a few pictures of it. This motherboard is using the Intel 975X Chipset and comes with three, yes three, PCI Express slots on the board.
Papers with the board explain that it has 2 PCI Express controllers in the MCH to enable either 1 x 16 or 2 x 8 operation for the 16 PCI Express lanes. In addition to multiple thread support, the Intel 975X Express Chipset enables key performance-optimized capabilities such as support for multiple 2x8 graphics cards, Intel Memory Pipeline Technology (Intel MPT), 8GB memory addressability to enable 64-bit computing, and ECC memory support.

Duo is the baseline. It's based around revised versions of the mobile Core 2 Duo processors Intel launched in autumn 2006, along with laptop-friendly incarnations of the 965 desktop chipset brought to market almost a year ago. The key chipset, the 965GM, brings Intel's latest integrated graphics core, the GMA X3000, to Centrino for a smoother Windows Vista experience and better-looking movie playback.

MSI's P965 Platinum and 975X Platinum motherboards

WHEN INTEL UNVEILED its P965 Express chipset at Computex, many were left wondering if any motherboard manufacturers would bother building boards based on the older 975X Express. The P965 was a newer design—one built on fancier 90nm process technology—and its ICH8-series south bridge chips offered a more advanced array of features than the 975X's year-old ICH7s. At the time, motherboard makers questioned whether they'd bother building 975X boards for enthusiasts, and they seemed to be leaning toward making high-end boards based on the P965.Abandoning the 975X in favor of the newer, flashier P965 was a bold idea, but one that was ultimately sunk by the P965's lack of support for CrossFire multi-GPU configurations. However, ATI recently began supporting CrossFire on the P965, raising the question of whether there's much point to the 975X anymore. To find out, we've collected the P965 and 975X Platinum motherboards from MSI. Both boards support CrossFire and Intel's latest Core 2 processors, but the 975X Platinum costs about $20 more. The question is: why?
