Intel have announced their next Atom CPU called the Intel Atom D525. The D525 is clocked at 1.8GHz and with that extra speed, Intel say the processor requires no extra power consumption due to more efficiency being built in.
The new CPU is compatible with DDR3 memory allowing movement between the two to happen more quickly, thus providing a better end user experience.
As of yet, the information is not official although the new Atom D525 is expected to land in the second quarter of this year (which is any time now). [Read more…]

An event held recently by AMD was recently run where contestants tried to overclock their processors – to the extreme. A few months back those working on the overclocking projects were getting very close to 7GHz but never actually broke through that barrier. CrunchGear have now reported that the 7GHz barrier was smashed through by also setting a record on 3DMark. The AMD processor that was overclocked was a Phenom II. 
I really don’t get the point of the USB Hub Alarm Clock. I just don’t remember a time when an alarm clock woke me up and I had the sudden urge to connect up 4 USB devices to it… but I guess the creators have done their research and found there is a need for such a device. With it being an alarm clock you would expect it’s for the side of your bed, but as it’s a hub does it sit with your PC on the desk? If so, doesn’t your computer tell the time anyway? Confusing!
When to you receive the First Time Gear Clock you actually get it as a box of bits that need to be put together to make a working clock. It is designed for those who like to build things and comes with easy to follow colour coded instructions.
