How do you best demonstrate what 32-phases of power regulation can do? Well, if you’re Gigabyte, you hook up a pair of 1200W power supplies and wire up the board to three DC load testers and pull an insane 2000W through the CPU socket. According to Gigabyte, this is enough …

Besides what we’ve already written about, CPT also showed off a range of other display products at Display Taiwan this year. Some of the goodies include a transparent display, a reflective display, a high PPI count mobile display and of course some 3D displays as well as a couple of …

By now it’s pretty clear that the display market is moving towards higher resolutions again and it’s about time, as 1920×1080 displays at every size imaginable are simply getting boring. During Display Taiwan 2012 which is taking place in Taipei this week, CPT or Chunghwa Picture Tubes was showing off …

We’ve written about a fair few of the new motherboards on display at Computex, but we haven’t even touched upon some of the smaller board makers, nor have we covered all of the products from the bigger guys. Take a deep breath and follow KitGuru down the rabbit hole for …

There has been a lot of talk about Thunderbolt and we’ve already seen motherboards from all of the major manufacturers that support the new standard, as well as many Ultrabooks and even a tablet and that doesn’t even take Apple into account. What we haven’t really seen a lot of …

We got a quick guided tour of the Thermaltake booth at Computex and the company is working on a wide range of new products, but for the first time Thermaltake is also looking at making some products for the console market as well as your average consumer. We’ll start with …

The TB_Header on Asus’ recently launched Z77 and H77 motherboard cause a lot of confusion at first, but once the company announced it was working on an add-in card that would allow users to upgrade these boards with Thunderbolt support, things became a lot clearer. At Computex the company was …

BitFenix has gone from strength to strength and its latest cases are getting increasingly impressive with the relatively large-small Prodigy mini-ITX case taking the world with storm. At Computex the company also unveiled a second new model which is known as Ghost, much more traditional case but with a few …

Ah yes, yet another Thunderbolt equipped motherboard. Well, not quite, as ASRock has actually come up with a clever way of making its Z77 Extreme6/TB4 work with discrete graphics cards, although, just as with Asus, it does require an external cable. In fact, ASRock pretty much did what Asus did …

One of the biggest problems ADATA claimed it has had with regards to its product branding has been that it have been lacking a clear strategy, with many of its products looking identical with the expectation of the model name. This has recently started to change and the company was …

At Computex Intel was speaking about the future of Ultrabooks and was making a very big deal out of it, but judging by the current crop of products, the future has yet to arrive. Some of the models that are launching later this year are getting closer to Intel’s vision, …

Networking products are in general fairly dull things, although it’s something none of us can live without in this day in age, at least not if we want to stay connected to the internet. Broadcom jumped on the 802.11ac or 5G Wi-Fi bandwagon very early on and at Computex the …

Someone at Synology had a stroke of genius as far as the upcoming DiskStation DS213air is concerned, as it’s the first consumer level NAS/router with Wi-Fi that we’re aware of. It looks like your average DiskStation product from Synology, but for some it’ll remove the hassle of having multiple devices …

These days passively cooled graphics cards aren’t exactly the norm, but Sapphire has made something of a name for itself in the past for its passively cooled models and the new Radeon HD 7770 Ultimate from the company is going to reinforce this further. The company went as far as …

With no Radeon HD 7990 in sight from AMD, HIS has decided to do its own dual GPU card in the shape of the Radeon HD 7970 IceQ X2 which is a triple-slot monster card. The company was also showing off its single GPU Radeon HD 7970 IceQ X which …

It’s not easy being a smaller player in the graphics card market, yet VTX3D seems to somehow manage to offer competitive products at much lower prices than the competition. At Computex the company unveiled a pair of new pre-overclocked models that should come in at pricing similar to the competitions …

If you’re not familiar with the professional overclocking scene, then you might not be familiar with who Nick Shih is, but suffice to say that he’s one of the world’s top five overclockers. He also happens to work with ASRock and he has now designed a motherboard together with ASRock …

The widescreen display has since long conquered the computer monitor and TV markets, but apparently we haven’t gone wide enough. After 16:9 comes 21:9 which is pretty much cinema aspect ratio and now the first computer products using this even wider aspect ratio are starting to trickle through. At Computex …

If there’s one trend for motherboards this year at Computex beyond adding Thunderbolt, then it has to be motherboards designed specifically for overclockers. MSI introduced its new MPower series of motherboards at Computex which akin to what ASRock was showing, are scaled back motherboards in terms of features, but with …

It’s taken Sapphire quite some effort and a lot of engineering resources, but the company has finally finished its first CPU cooler and at least for now, it’s a unique product in the market. The Vapor-X name gives it all away, as this is a vapor chamber CPU cooler. If …

There’s no doubt that cases and power supplies goes hand in hand and when there’s no solution on the market that fits your needs, then if you’re SilverStone, you go and make one. In this case we’re talking about the first modular SFX PSU which is likely to be a …

One of the often overlooked group of companies these days are the smaller chip makers that we all rely on for our technology to work and ASMedia is one of those behind the scenes companies that have pretty much come from no-where and become a major force in the industry. …

We’ve seen densely packed chassis from SilverStone in the past, but the new Sugo SG09 is taking things to another level and SilverStone has really outdone itself in terms of how much hardware can be packed into a 23L chassis. We’re not going to say that the Sugo SG09 is …

The one product line in Asus’ R.O.G. series that hasn’t really impressed so far is its desktop systems, least not because of the rather strange looking chassis Asus has stuck with over the years. The new Tytan CG8890 appeared to be using the same old tried and trusted design at …

Ah yes, the good old chassis, ever evolving despite following a standard that was ratified back in 1995 and nothing much has really changed with regards to the base specs. That said, many a case manufacturer has come up with its own twists on the standard and SilverStone is one …
