GeForce GTX 480

480card

Nvidia’s latest range of graphic chips is a feast of power that will set you wallet on fire. Based on the new Fermi architecture, this range of graphic card is literally what is meant to be the most powerful chip on the planet.

For the price we were really expecting something amazing. But it’s not quite that. First the card is very noisy and seem to get very hot very quickly.

In games tests show that it is indeed very fast but also overkill when used in single monitors set up. An ATI 5870 will do just as good for £100 less.

Just Cause 2 review

One of the latest release from Eidos and Square Enix, Just Cause 2 is, you guessed it, the follow up of Just Cause. This new chapter takes place on a island somewhere warm and sunny where rebels causing distress.

You, Scorpio, the ultimate mercenary warrior are hired by the boss rebel (pretty hot chick) to set the island on fire and sabotage everything that relates to governmental organizations.

So off you go, free like a bird, shooting on sight anything that’s even remotely related to the dictatorship.

It’s a pretty fun game, a la GTA where the more caos you cause the more people will try ti get you. You can drive vehicles, planes, helicopters, use mounted gatling, rocket launcher, do amazing stunt jumps and generally have fun killing and destroying.

From us, very good, a must have.
