Corsair redefines power supply efficiency at CeBIT

Corsair, known for making quite good RAM among other things, is apparently really getting serious about the power supply business. Most power supplies on the market today are anywhere between 50 and 85% efficient, with the vast majority of power supplies being between 75 and 85% efficient under load. Corsair had a brilliant power supply at their CeBIT booth, which had an impressive 90% load efficiency. This allowed it to power an AMD QuadFX system with G80 SLI, 4GB of PC2-8000 DDR2 RAM, and a 150GB hard drive with a 620W power supply (most people at the show expected an 850W-1kW PSU to be required). To be honest, Corsair has actually had this power supply on the market for a while, and probably couldn't wait for CeBIT to make it available. You can get this extremely efficient power supply
here (oh look it's on sale).

CeBIT : Silentflux closed loop liquid bubble pump cooler

Silentflux has a pretty innovative liquid bubble pump cooler on display at their booth in CeBIT. the Silentflux coolers makes use of convection and a special liquid with a low boiling point to circulate liquid within the cooler. They have some low profile solutions for HTPC users as well as a standard version for tower cases. More pictures here for your enjoyment.

Scythe has a redesigned Ninja on display at their booth, where one of the heatpipes is "emptied" and watercooling barbs are attached to it. Very innovative design by Scythe.

Chaintech Apogee to use Elpida Chips


http://aycu31.webshots.com/image/123...2519307_rs.jpg

We had a talk with the guys over at Chaintech and more details about the Chaintech Apogee Enthusiast RAMs were revealed to us; the Apogee will be using Elpida chips and will be released in 1000Mhz and 1066Mhz CL5 variants, and it will be quite impossible to run these RAMs at CL4 and below or anything above 1100Mhz. However, the RAMs runs pretty cool at around 40 degrees even in an enclosure without ventilation and will only require low volts to run at the stipulated speeds.

CeBIT : AMD 690G DTX Board Pictured



http://aycu28.webshots.com/image/126...2403431_rs.jpg

http://aycu16.webshots.com/image/105...8688091_rs.jpg


We saw a very interesting board today, an AMD 690G board codenamed Diamond Mech Board 2 based on the new DTX form factor. AMD has announced the new DTX form factor for Small Form Factors back in January. DTX motherboards are made backward compatible with ATX chassis but case makers are expected to make smaller DTX chassis specially for DTX boards. Even mini-ITX boards can be used in DTX cases. There are two board sizes for DTX; Full DTX and mini-DTX both at 20 cm length but mini-DTX is shorter in width at 17cm compared to 24.4cm. The board shown above is a Full DTX board.

Lol looks like one of my old, ECS boards, budget company, cant really call it a budget board though, when I spent $160 on it :stick:

R600 launch to be biggest in GPU history

CeBIT 007 65nm GPUs launch with almost 200 hacks




WITH SO MANY HACKS constantly talking to AMD's partners about the R600 and tapping in the dark about the launch, everything is at fever pitch in the press office.

But the details are as follows. AMD is preparing the biggest launch in history of graphics chips.

Since, we understand, the company pulled an unexpected move with a complete switch to a 65 nm process at TSMC, it seems that a new manufacturing alliance is emerging, since AMD is currently in various partnership deals with IBM and so Sony, Toshiba, Chartered, UMC and of course, TSMC.

AMD will probably ship well over 100 million 65 nanometre chips in 2007, and decided to start their own graphics adventure with a bang. We learned that the firm is inviting a ton of partners for a huge 3D-wide PR briefing - close to 200 journos will arrive at the press event and the plan is for each and every member of the press to get a taste of 65 nano chippery. µ

R600 dissipates 200W+

CEBIT 2007: Its getting hot in here


R600 is hot and it is even hotter than anyone wants to admit. Last time I heard 175W number and G80 should be around 135W but R600 is hitting even more.


Our sources confirmed that the numbers are even higher than anyone expected as it dissapates 200W. The 9.5 inch cooler involves heat pipes, dual slot and the fan blows the air out.


The 12.5 inch R600 probably branded as Radeon X2900XTX is for the OEMs only, can probably last longer, and passes all the tests. 200W is almost two times of the Quad core or Athlon FX heat dissipation.

G965 vs AMD 690


Intel lost the HL2 coast

We had a chance to see AMD 690 chipset and DAAMIT decided to compare it versus G965. Intel machine was obviously slower. We saw Half Life 2 Lost cost running on both machines and you can clearly see that AMD can render things faster.

We were not surprised as we are comparing AMD latest chipset with Intels latest but outdated chipset. Intel is about to launch G33 that might give it a fighting chance.


On Intel G965 Intel lost its coast. It can not render water properly and AMD swears that it has the latest driver for Intel platform. Intel decided to back out from the booth and Cebit organizers made a big lake in Hall 2, just at the place where you would expect Intel.


Intel also has problems with Sims 2 and Movies game, casual gamers games. Everything runs significantly faster on AMD four pipe chipset.


That should prove that AMD is the smarter choice at least this is how it wants to get in the customers mind.

ATI has RD790 chipset

Samples up and running


ATI just launched its long awaited AMD 690 chipset but this one is the integrated one. There will be more chipsets and Rx790 series is already scheduled for later this year.


The good thing about this chipset is that it can and will support Barcelona kind of processors and especially Agena FX and similar products based on the native quad core.


It also has the edge as it can support multiple R600 cards and Quad FX. It comes with at least two PCIe 16X slots and two socket 1207+ and of course it supports Hypertransport 3 at much higher speeds. Of course it supports Crossfire.

The fact that the Pro version doesn't have the bridges is equally strange...

So they put a rebranded Seasonic on 240V and measured it? Big deal

The other news were interesting, though. Thanks for sharing.

Im looking forward to the dtx standard. Based on the size it should be possible to install 2 dtx motherboard in one tower(3 in fulltowers:D )

Damn nice pics :D :toast: :toast:

Yeah I know..... SICK, but I know someone most be thinking that. :slap:

Over what area? the one girls don't show or the one they got painted?

In the second video, it's funny the use of a chopstick, I bet he's going to also eat some dry ice with chopsticks:D :D
