- NVIDIA Mid Range 8600 GT vs 7600 GT Performance Comparison - The 7600 GT is no longer a valuable option if you are shopping for a new PC, the 8600 GT comes at the same price with better performance, the XFX version with higher default clock speeds is slightly more expensive, but the factory overclock doesn’t give enough of a boost to push the 7600 GT past the 8600 GT.
- Hitachi's Deskstar 7K1000 1TB hard drive tested - On the performance front, the Deskstar may be faster overall than Seagate's 750GB Barracudas, but those drives are more than a year old.
