Editor's Note

It's that time of the week again, were Atomic shows up in your inbox to remind you of some of the great stuff you might have missed on our website.

In these trying economic times, being a PC enthusiast can be tough. But that's okay, 'cause we've got a guide to managing tight bank acounts and still keeping PC savvy. Essential reading!

We've also got a look at a snazzy new motherboard from DFI, some hints at what the new Deneb CPU from AMD might cost (though it's highly up in the air at the moment), and some surprising thoughts on the power and utility of triple SLI graphics setups.

Plus don't forget all the action and informative buzz of our forums, regular reviews and views, user reviews (yes, we want you to tell us all about your gear!), and the exciting First Looks we have coming up.

See you on the site!

- David Hollingworth, Editor
