This crazy ass machine is called the MWE Emperor 200 and it is actually a workstation, but who do you think is gonna work in it? We’d rather play Battlefield 2 on it or Deadspace or something. The machine is crazy, it has, 3, 24 inch touch-screen LCD monitors, motorized screen and chair adjustment, ergonomic leather seating, LED lighting and THX surround sound system. Oh also, believe it or not, it even has an air filtration system, just incase you’ve been on it for more than a week and have been stewing in your own filth…
If your still reading this, wanna know how much? $45,000… end post…

Changing it up this time, and doing audio with no video since we were having a sync problem. We could change this down the line but will be this way for a while.
Thanks to our friends at studioDYV.
Enjoy!
So we will be doing this show weekly, or bi-weekly. Its a rough start (watch us stumble and hurt out knee) but we are open to suggestions and adjusting the show as we go.
We will be fixing up that echo problem and maybe just getting rid of the video. Let us know what you think.
Thanks to our friends at studioDYV.
In the meantime, enjoy!

So it is the end of 2011 and most people can obtain a reasonably affordable 1080p TV or may even have a phone that can record 1080p but hear comes technology’s evolution to kick you in the wallet. 2160p (3840×2160) or 4K is coming to CES which means its making its way to your TV.
So what now? Well enjoy your 1080p TV or monitor and maybe even get one if you don’t already or even buy one when these ones come out. The main thing is to not panic, the only thing that ultimately decides whether you purchase technology these days is how much money you have (and credit doesn’t count). Look, technology is always going to do this and its going to get faster and faster so get accustom to it but the best way to handle it is to be happy with what you have. If you really want to get ahead start saving for an OLED TV or even a Quantum computer.

Samsung Quad-Core coming at the Barcelona Mobile World Congress party next year in Febuary/March. Apparently going to have a Exynos chipset accompanied by a 720p Super AMOLED Plus display with LTE and 2GB of RAM to feed the monster CPU. Predicting that the clock would be 2GHz or 1.8GHz.
Apple better catch up to this one because if they don’t I see someone getting left in the dust of Android devices. Apple should probably sink some of those dollars they spend on lawyers to R&D. Samsung is in a position to rocket Android to the top with the support of many vendors.
With mobile devices that powerful we could see devices that are powered by their phones, why pay for another CPU when your phone already has so much power. With Windows soon going on mobile chips, we could see some practical uses for mobile CPUs instead of just a phone and travel toy.

Wow that was fast, So here is the brand new Radeon HD 7970 for $549. Specs:
- 925MHz engine clock (overclockable to 1125MHz)
- 2048 stream processors
- 384-bit memory bus
- 3GB of GDDR5
That is a hefty price but that is some kickass specs, and with a preview to the benchmarks I’m looking forward to some more for confirmation of its power but if these early ones are true then the 7970 is priced less than the 6990 but more powerful in some tests and uses less power than the NVIDIA 580 while still beating it. When this beast is overclocked it blows away the 580 while in the preview it seemed to maintain a max temperature of 86 degrees. It seems like an incredible GPU but if Radeon doesn’t get better drivers I’m going to have to switch to NVIDIA.
Continue for reviews…

AMD’s 7000 series card leaked a photo with the alleged 7970 version but with this photo of only two 6-pin connectors I highly doubt that, unless they have managed to keep the power consumption down that much with the dye shrink, then that is awesome. The new card most likely using 384-bit wide-memory interface which should speed things up quite a bit, and a think looking cooling unit as well. Either way AMD Radeon better knock this one out of the park because the race has always been close and Radeon seems to be eeking by with value over performance. Until it officially comes out, I’m going to hold my breath.
