Delivering a four-core foreshadowing of innovations to come for PC enthusiasts worldwide, AMD unveiled the upcoming AMD Phenom™ processor family name and publicly demonstrated the first all-AMD enthusiast platform, codenamed “FASN8.”

The industry’s only true quad-core client processors are expected to deliver the ultimate visual experience, especially when paired with AMD’s new DirectX 10 ATI Radeon™ HD 2000 series, which began shipping today (see related press release: “AMD Introduces the ATI Radeon™ HD 2000 Series, Delivering The Ultimate Visual Experience™ for Desktop and Mobile Platforms”). AMD expects true quad-core and dual-core AMD Phenom-based desktop systems will ship in the second half of 2007.

Another online race series has begun, with rFactor and BMW's E21's. 42 drivers on the race track battling for the win means some exciting and extremely close racing. And regretfully some spectacular crashes.

Eidos  Interactive Ltd., one of the world’s leading publishers and developers of entertainment software, in conjunction with SimBin Development Team, are pleased to announce the official ‘Caterham’ expansion for RACE – THE WTCC GAME.

Celebrating the 50 year anniversary of Caterham Cars Ltd, players now have the opportunity to expand their WTCC Experience and race these exceptional classic sportscars.

 

RACE: CATERHAM allows you to drive a total of 60 individual new cars/car skins based on some of the most exciting models of the Caterham sports car range. You will get the chance to explore the tracks with the Caterham CSR 200, CSR 260 or the CSR 320 Concept, the later being a concept version with a grueling 320hp – plus two new tracks ; the legendary circuit of Imola and the former GP-track of Estoril.

RACE: CATERHAM comes with new functions that also affect the original RACE game including; improved performance scalability, a performance monitor to help the player find the best possible graphical settings and a new controller interface with more options.

After the successful completion of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl, GSC Game World continues its work on the series. The studio is about to announce several subsequent new products in the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. universe already at the upcoming E3 Media & Business Summit-2007 to take place July 11-13 in Santa Monica.

"We are very happy of the players' positive reaction to S.T.A.L.K.E.R. all over the world. This fills us with confidence the team is on the right track and adds us strength to go for next exciting accomplishments. It will be very soon that we present our new interesting ideas and solutions", said GSC Game World's CEO Sergiy Grygorovych.
