Moving in lockstep with NVIDIA, Zotac has decided to also taking NVIDIA’s newly launched GTX 275 core and slap it into a new card; so convenient, no? Just a day after it expanded its low-profile arrangement with a new GeForce 9600 LP, the same company is pushing its GTX 200 Series crew one step further. Today we’re being formally introduced to the GeForce GTX 275 and GTX 275 AMP! Edition, both of which are powered by second generation NVIDIA Unified Architecture with 240 screaming-fast stream processors.Needless

Really, there are only a few things a hardware company needs when it fires up a brand new initiative. Time, money, knowledge and support from software vendors. While we had no doubts about NVIDIA’s ability to capture the first three, the company is making very, very clear that the latter bit is well taken of as well. As the world at large waits to see how NVIDIA plans to tip the newfangled nettop market on its side, the company is proudly proclaiming that the world’s leading software companies are already rallying

AMD and NVIDIA usually do not launch graphics cards on the same day, but today is a new day and that is exactly what has happened. AMD is announcing the Radeon HD 4890 graphics card, which is powered RV790 GPU, and arch rival NVIDIA is releasing the GeForce GTX 275 graphics card.

Eschewing CTIA for their announcement, Palm spoke at the Web 2.0 Expo on Wednesday night, and announced a number of things, including the fact that Palm OS emulation will be available on the Palm Pre, via third party developer MotionApps. Of course, you’ll have to pay for the emulator, which they call Classic. There’s no pricing or release information yet, but from what I understand, the emulation doesn’t run directly in the Palm Web OS. It runs in a sandbox. Thus, it would work best with self-contained applications

As anyone remotely in tune with the tech sector can attest, the rivalry in the PC graphics card market between AMD / ATI and NVIDIA is as intense as ever. It used to be that one of the two companies would release a new product, only to have the other release a competing offering a few weeks, or maybe a few months later. But even in these gloomy economic times, AMD and NVIDIA continue to fight on and today both graphics giants are releasing new graphics cards aimed squarely at one another. Not a few weeks apart,

This will no doubt be an exciting day for graphics card aficionados. As we’ve shown you here, AMD has literally just launched a brand new more powerful, single-GPU based Radeon, dubbed the Radeon HD 4890. However, arch rival NVIDIA has something on tap as well, in the form of the GeForce GTX 275. And wouldn’t you know it, the GTX 275 is positioned right alongside AMD’s latest offering.As its name suggests, the new GeForce GTX 275 is based on NVIDIA’s 55nm GT200b GPU, which is also employed on the GeForce GTX

Today is traditionally a day of harmless pranks and hoaxes. Of course, these pranks aren’t limited to offline activity. It seems everyone from Google to Kodak was getting in on the April Fools fun today. Here’s a look at some of the foolishness: Google showed off CADIE – a Cognitive Autoheuristic Distributed-Intelligence Entity that’s a cross between a HAL 9000 computer and a texting teenager. CADIE’s automatically generated homepage speaks for itself.   Google also unveiled Gmail Autopilot that will

The Conficker worm has generated a fair amount of buzz in the media recently. Today, April 1, was suppose to be the worm’s day of attack. As of this evening eastern standard time, the doomsday some were predicting as a result of the Conficker worm did not materialize. That doesn’t mean Conficker is a bust, however. The worm still did what was expected—it generated 50,000 domain names and started contacting them. The Conficker virus has infected several million computers since November. It was programmed to seek

Zotac is back on the offensive again after just a few days off, this time announcing its GeForce 9600GT LP for low-profile rigs and slim HTPCs. Granted, the 9600GT isn’t the most powerful GPU core or anything, but it’s certainly a good choice for space constrained cases given its cool operation and its low overhead design.The card is powered by 64 stream processors and fully supports DirectX 10, OpenGL 2.1, NVIDIA’s CUDA and PhysX technologies. There’s also a wide 256-bit memory interface, which joins the aforementioned
