Cebit 2007

Last year we reviewed the Stacker from Cooler Master and we liked what we saw, but we did wonder just what they could come up with next. Well it seems that colour is the order of the show here at CeBIT 2007 as Cooler Master introduces a number of different colour finishes.

First up is the customised paint job from a US supplier, believe it or not after the Stacker leaves the factory in China it heads off to the US for a bit of a paint job then gets imported into the UK, that is if they think there’s a market for it. At $900USD it has to be said that you would have to be a seriously avid fan to lay out that sort of money.





Next up are the coloured mesh variants that Cooler Master are currently considering. We only managed to grab photos of two of the potentials, a lime green and ruby red finish were on show in the morning, but we also saw an orange version later in the day. It’s a simple case of painted mesh being fitted to the chassis in place of the usual black.







We did spot one more new potential addition to the Stacker range, a window for those to like to see their systems in action. Again Cooler Master couldn’t commit to this making the production lines, but it will depend on the feedback they receive during the CeBIT show we believe.



Finishing up this short Stacker round up we actually can confirm that this is a product that will make it to market. The Stacker 832 is on its way and ready for production. Although initial impressions are that the front door is all that has changed we will get one into the labs to give it the proper HEXUS going over as soon as possible.

Now that u mention it, you could be right we need a better pic to be able to tell lol

[Jamesrt2004]

That Ruby red stacker looks awesome seems expensive though for only painting the grill a diff' colour

Wouldn't be surprised, the X-Fi Fatal has a heatsink, gets pretty warm too!

[Revv23]

CeBIT : Meizu Music Card Insight












Meizu has recently made some headlines to come out with design that look pretty much like an Apple iPhone but comes with very decent features too. Meizu didn't managed to showcase Mini One at CeBIT but nonetheless their sleek looking Music Card caught our eyes. The 2GB edition will come later this month and the retail price is around US$65.

Optimus Keyboard Gets New Name at CeBIT







Here are some good and some bad news about the ultimate Optimus keyboard project, unveiled directly from Artemy Lebedev and Dimitry Tosy right after the CeBIT in Hannover started. I'll begin with the bad news. First the expected $1,200 price is now $1,490(cough). Second, the complete Optimus keyboard isn't being shown at CeBIT, just a few screenshots. Now the good news. The keyboard is now called Optimus Maximus and there will be OLED keys after all with an expected life span of only 5 years. Each 32 x 32 resolution OLED will remain stationary. Pre-orders of the unseen keyboard start in April with delivery in November/December 2007.

Yep, that is my cascade at Cebit/Abit.

Pretty sure that the guy with the glasses....is not Fugger

But I have been wrong before

[justin_c]

only if the meizu was hd based; flac and wma lossless support!

[Sumanji]

I have no idea what card this is... could just be an X1950 Pro but the PCB layout looks slightly different. See more at FX57.net.

For comparison, RV610 (X2300?) and RV630 (X2600?):

[Jamesrt2004]

Wonder how it will do against other coolers

[RyderOCZ]

lol Wrong

I read that, Fugger said it was his Cascade.....not that it was him.

Seems to me that this is Fugger, IIRC... Definitely not the same guy with the Glasses in this thread

When is the real action?

So far ASUS and their sound cards look attractive.

Very attractive considering PCIe 1X and Dolby standard instead of X-fi's crackling mess in some games and not in others...

Anyone know what the Dolby Headphone standard is?
