It's been a while, we'll give you that, but the hardware podcast is back in town with a jam-packed eleventh episode. Alex, Harry, James and Antony sit down to discuss everything that's happened in the world of hardware since we were last on air.
We begin with
Fermi, specifically the rumours that Nvidia is aggressively trying to expand its range by launching
a mobile version of its new GPU. How will such a hot chip run in a laptop though?
Next up, we talk about Intel and AMD's new CPUs, including the six-core
AMD Phenom II X6 1090T, and Harry goes deep into SSDs. Rebranding, new controller chips and the question of whether all the manufacturers are missing the obvious are all addressed.
Finally, we answer some reader mail and speculate about which keyboard Scarlett Johansson prefers to use.
As usual, you can also win a
tat bag choice selection of quality branded merchandise by correctly guessing what mystery item of hardware we're talking about this episode – send your guesses to podcast [at] custompc [dot] co [dot] uk with the subject line ‘Hardware 11’.
As ever, thanks to
Brad Sucks for providing the theme song - it's actually his track, Dropping Out of School.
