NVIDIA's latest GPU is codenamed GF100, and is the first graphics processor based on the Fermi architecture. In this article, Benchmark Reviews explains the technical architecture behind NVIDIA's GF100 graphics processor and offers an insight into upcoming Fermi-based GeForce video cards. For those who are not familiar, NVIDIA's GF100 GPU is their first graphics processor to support DirectX-11 hardware features such as tessellation and DirectCompute, while also adding heavy particle and turbulence effects. The GF100 GPU is also the successor to the GT200 graphics processor, which launched in the GeForce GTX 280 video card. NVIDIA has since redefined their focus, and GF100 proves a dedication towards next generation gaming effects such as raytracing, order-independent transp! arency, and fluid simulations. Rest assured, the new GF100 GPU is more powerful than the GT200 could ever be, and early results indicate a Fermi-based video card delivers far more than twice the gaming performance over a GeForce GTX-280.

We look at what NVIDIA is putting on offer, before we get to test NVIDIA's assertions.

We've all heard about Ferrari, the very powerful and equally expensive racing car manufacturer off in Italy. Well, strangely enough, Ferrari has joined teams with Thrustmaster, a manufacturer of PC and console accessories to bring us their new Ferrari Motors Gamepad F430 Challenge Limited Edition. So, how does this gamepad differ from a regular PS3 controller? Other than a sleek new look, a couple more buttons, and the Ferrari brand name, there isn't much difference. However, with a price point $10 below that of a Dualshock 3 controller and support for both the PC and PS3 - the Ferrari Motors Gamepad becomes a direct contender in the gamepad market.

LanCool's line of Dragon Lord computer cases offer two great advantages over many competitors. The first is the amount of customization they provide in choosing a stock model. Rather than simply providing one high end case and one low end case they provide options for several intermediate levels. The second advantage offered by LanCool is their tool-less designs. Many tool-less designs of the past have suffered from compatibility or usability problems. LanCool uses a fresh approach to alleviate the problems of the past while still providing the option to fall back on conventional installation. Benchmark Reviews recently reviewed the PC-K56W which offers snap-in hard drive assemblies. We now bring you the PC-K58W which extends the tool-less design, offers more space, more features, and more room to upgrade.
