    A Screw

    From every angle, top three quarters, side on, up close, up close enough to nearly have my eye out, it's a good looking screw, presented very well. Black all over, it's stylish, small and screams out to be used. I've resisted thus far, keeping it in its bag.

    How does it perform against other screws? I've no idea, so I've benchmarked it against an ATI Radeon 9800XT instead.

    You may mock, but maybe we should do a razor shootout using your sideburns.

    Editors Note: We of course did not manage to water or freon cool this. But we feel we might be able to overclock this 'screw' with the use of an electric screwdriver. Which, without doubt will give this screw a new lease of life.
