"The first thing noticable is that netbooks are about 20% less reliable than entry-level laptops. Those laptops are 10% more unreliable than more expensive models.

The diagram compares several manufacturers to one another. At a 25,6% failure rate, the test does not favor HP notebooks, whereas ASUS and Toshiba appear to produce the most reliable laptops."]]> noreply@www.motherboards.org (evasive) The Mother Board http://www.motherboards.org/forums/posting.php?mode=reply&t=113896 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 17:40:03 -0800 http://www.motherboards.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=726571#726571 http://www.motherboards.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=726532#726532

The Airflow King is reborn with advanced cooling performance, maximum expandability, and superior cable management

El Monte, CA – November 17, 2009 – NZXT, a company built on realizing the dreams of gamers worldwide, is proud to announce the Tempest EVO, a sleek, all black, steel mid tower gaming chassis. Building off of the original Tempest’s award winning design, the EVO brings advanced cooling power, expandability, and cable management. The Tempest EVO maximizes airflow circulation with Dual 120mm intake, side 120mm, and a rear 120mm fan. NZXT even redesigned the fan blades so they effectively deliver more air at lower noise levels. Additionally, the bottom mounted PSU provides better airflow and separation of heat from the CPU.

The Tempest EVO puts a premium on expandability with E-ATX support allowing for compatibility with higher end graphics cards, power supplies and server boards while the server-like HDD space holds up to 8 HDDs ensuring that enthusiasts can make significant upgrades to their system without having to replace the chassis. Installation and upgrades are a breeze with pre-drilled cable routing on the motherboard allowing for a cleaner look and improved airflow. The case also features added space behind the motherboard panel from a punched side panel design that allows for easy heatsink removal. Tempest EVO is well equipped for overclocking and watercooling enthusiasts with predrilled watercooling tube access and support for a dual 120mm radiator at the top panel.

“The original Tempest is one of our most successful designs due to its optimal airflow capabilities” said Johnny Hou, Chief Designer at NZXT. “With the additional improvements the Tempest EVO brings to the equation, it’s destined to be a top performer in its class.”

The Tempest EVO is available now at an MSRP of $99.99.

That said, the 40GB capacity requires a bit of a
mentality shift as far as how you organize your files. Such a small
capacity means your videos and other media will need to be located
elsewhere. If running Vista or Windows 7, you may run out of space before
you get Office and a couple of games installed. If you can deal with
putting some of your stuff on a separate (spinning) drive, and place only
those things you want to run snappy on the SSD, you will likely be happy
with your purchase."

AMD has revealed that its low power CPU is codenamed Bobcat and this is the CPU core that will be the part of 2011 notebook APU codename “Brazos”.


The company also said that Bobcat is a very low power design with a sub-1W capable power envelope that can score 90 percent of today’s mainstream performance in less than half silicon area.

It is also easy to reuse and what AMD didn’t tell you is that this CPU will be developed in 40nm bulk process as it will get DirectX 11 RV8x0 series 40nm graphics inside, as this is the point of APU to have CPU and GPU together. AMD claims SSE 1 to 3 and virtualisation which is nothing spectacular but it's still good to hear.

With the Bobcat, AMD plans to compete with Intel's Atom. However, by the time Bobcat launches, Atom will be three years old and some market reports see 130+ million Atoms / Netbooks in the market. AMD has to pull miracle to get OEMs and ODMs interested in its design.

AMD goes ARM like strategy where it plans to manufacture CPU on Bulk, even though it used Silicon on insulator for years now.

Let’s not forget that this interesting core is scheduled for some point in 2011, and when a company tells you a year it's highly likely that production and availability should occur later in the year rather than in January time.

The big issue is what Intel plans for its 2011 Atom successor.

While Google has grown into an advertising powerhouse, their hold on the mobile market hasn't been as potent, but the company's latest deal promises to change that. Google has announced the $750 million-worth purchase of AdMob, the company whose profile will significantly help Google in establishing itself as a mobile advertising giant as well.

AdMob is a company that seems to be tailored for Google, as they provide mobile advertisements in applications and web-browsing where their new owner isn't quite formidable, and Google obviously knows how to put their practice to good use. Their ads are pretty much on every consumer mobile OS, meaning that Google's mobile advertising won't be solely based on Android.

So, if, and mind you that’s a big if, there is someone, somewhere, who hasn't seen Google ads, then he surely will as soon as this deal is done.

HIS has revealed its new custom designed Radeon HD 5750 card that will feature stock clocks and Arctic Cooling's L2 Pro dual slot cooler previously seen on some HD 4850 cards like the recently tested Mushkin, or Sapphire's HD 4670.

The new HIS HD 5750 iCooler IV features a non-reference blue PCB, 720 stream processors and stock core and memory clocks of 700 for the GPU and 4600MHz for 1GB of GDDR5 memory.

The cooler and the PCB aren't the only things that HIS decided to change as this one features DVI, HDMI as well as the DisplayPort output, but lacks the second DVI that was present on the reference card.

The card should show up in retail pretty soon with a price tag of around €120.

AMD is using silly names such as Hemlock for its dual RV870, Cypress XT for the HD 5870 (a.k.a. RV870), while Cypress Pro is HD 5850 and so on.

The chip that is scheduled to launch in Q1 2010 is codenamed Redwood and it also comes in XT and Pro variants.

Redwood XT is a 40nm DirectX 11 part that should replace Radeon HD 4770 and Radeon HD 4670 cards in the upper part of mainstream market. Redwood Pro will be the slower version and it should replace Radeon HD 4650 cards in the lower part of mainstream market.

These two speed bumps of the Redwood chip in Pro (slower) and XP (faster) variations are releasing sometime in Q1 2010.

The king of the value market is named Cedar, and it should replace the Radeon HD 43x0 series.

Yesterday, Jen-Hsun Huang, CEO and President of Nvidia visited the luxurious state of Dubai on business matters to present a speech at the American University in Dubai (AUD). During his visit, he sat down with a few analysts from the media to discuss the current state of the IT industry as well as Nvidia’s products, goals and achievements.

During his talk, Jensen positioned himself in a surprising new light when he mentioned his incredibly passionate support for Apple products to the group of individuals in the room. “I’m all Apple,” he stated. “Apple uses the best technology for its [computers]…and says to its customers: if you buy a computer from us, you can be sure we have selected the best technology inside for you. That is their promise to consumers. Their promise to consumers isn’t [that] we’ve selected the best technology for you with the exception of what Intel allows us to use. That’s not their promise, and that’s why Apple uses the best technology where they want, whenever they want. And that’s why I’m all Apple! At home, it’s just Macs everywhere [with] NVIDIA’s technology in all of them but I [do] use Macs. My son has two Macs, my daughter has a Mac, there’s an extra Mac just in case, and my wife has a Mac. It’s just Mac, Mac, Mac! Because I know it’s got the best stuff inside.” [ShuffleGazine.com]

As we already wrote a month ago, Corsair has now officially announced its new Survivor GT flash drives, including the new 64GB version.

The new Survivor GT features the same aluminium casing that is water, as well as shock resistant. The drives should feature a write and read speeds of up to 16 and 30MB/s.

These are the top notch flash drives and are currently the best that Corsair has offer in its flash lineup. Both are going to be bundled with a Corsair dog tag and a USB extension cable. The only difference between the drives is in size as the 64GB version is a bit longer.

As we wrote before, the drives are already listed in Europe with a lowest price set at €78,76 for the 32GB and €149,03 for the 64GB version.

Less than 24 hours ago, EVGA released its limited exclusive Geforce GTX 275 CO-OP PhysX Edition graphics card to the enthusiast public. Just as the company anticipates its first week sales, we are also interested in the success of the card due to its history-making GPU design.

As we mentioned two weeks ago, EVGA launched its exclusive card (012-P3-1178-AR) at the Nvidia Halloween Launch Party in Santa Clara, marking the first time in history that two distinct Nvidia GPUs have been implemented on a single-PCB design. The card effectively combines the power of an Nvidia 55nm GT200b for graphics rendering with the power of an Nvidia 55nm G92b for PhysX rendering, all enclosed within a single convenient model.

Razer has announced a new gaming rodent, dubbed the Abyssus. The new mouse from Razer is quite interesting, and it has honestly surprised us, considering the fact that last two that came from Razer, either had a high price tag (Mamba) or way too many buttons for our taste (Naga).

Razer has decided to get back to the basics and this one is combines Razer's high-grade specifications with a simple three-button ambidextrous design. This of course also means that the new Abyssus will have a reasonable price as well.

Don't get us wrong as Razer didn't skimp out on the specifications, and we are still looking at a rodent that has a 3500dpi Precision 3.5G infrared sensor as well as Hyper-response buttons, Ultraslick Teflon feet, 2.1m cord, 1ms response time and scroll wheel with 24 click positions.

The Abyssus should be available pretty soon as it can already be pre-ordered over at Razerzone.com with a US $49.99 price tag while the estimated ship date is 12th of November, or tomorrow. Europe is less lucky as it will be available again soon but with a €49.99 price tag.

Update: Razer contacted us regarding the European price which should be listed at €39.99, and although it is still listed at €49.99 we are sure that Razer will fix that little glitch pretty soon.

According to internal sources at Intel, the company is readying to move its P55 chipset platform to B3 stepping early next month. Thankfully, the new stepping revision will not require motherboard manufacturers to make any physical hardware changes and will be implemented primarily to support future Core i7 and Core i5 processors on Socket LGA 1156.

Intel has explained that the current B2 stepping and upcoming B3 stepping are completely identical in physical size, fit, electrical, mechanical and thermal specifications. Samples have been available for motherboard manufacturers since October 2nd, and enthusiast consumers can expect initial commercial shipments of B3 revision P55 chipsets beginning on Monday, December 7th.

The B3 stepping itself includes new MM number and S-Spec numbers and will require manufacturers to implement minor firmware and BIOS updates. In particular, they will implement processor MRC and microcode updates in order to enable support for future processors.

As for consumers with the new stepping, Intel recommends a storage driver upgrade from Intel MSM 8.9 to Intel RST 9.5. The company also stressed that both B2 and B3 steppings of the Intel P55 chipset will support 32nm Clarkdale chips.

“Current P55 boards as well as new P55 boards should support Clarkdale,” said said George Alfs, an Intel spokesperson. “As always, end users should check with their board vendor before upgrading.” In other words, those of you with current B2 stepping motherboards will be able to run Core i5 32nm dual-core chips (Clarkdale) with BIOS updates that implement the new processor microcodes.

Maker of printer ink which is more valuable than gold, HP has bought networking-gear maker 3Com for $2.7 billion in cash.

The move helps HP bulk up its product line amid a broader push by the few remaining technology giants to turn themselves into one-stop technology shops. By buying 3Com, which has not been doing so well lately it makes HP a direct rival of Cisco. Cisco has moved into servers, previously HP and Dell's turf. HP had a pop at Cisco with investments in networking, but this one is a biggie.

David Donatelli, H-P's vice president in charge of the corporate-computer division, said 3Com has a better set of networking products for large corporate clients than H-P currently sells and a market share of more than 30 per cent in the China networking market. HP's cunning plan is to sell "complete systems" made of chips, computers, storage devices and software.

Matrox's new card uses PCI-Express x16 slot and features 2GB of memory. As this one will not impress you with its gaming capabilities, but it certainly will make those multi-display scenarios much easier thanks to eight Mini DisplayPort connectors with included DVI and DisplayPort adapters, as well as the support for resolutions of up to 2560x1600 per output.

Multiply that number by eight and you'll be quite impressed with what this card is capable to do, don't you think? If that is not enough for you, it is possible to use a pair of M9188 cards to get sixteen outputs and an even higher output resolution.

This card is made for professional monitoring environments and it comes with a professional price tag of US $1995. If this is too much for your budget, Matrox is preparing another one that will feature "only" Mini DP outputs and 1GB of memory with a US $259 price tag.

have seen this over the years where it takes time for the GPU vendors to
release updated drivers and profiles to get GPU scaling working. In those
cases, because Lucid’s software doesn’t require profiles in that sense, the
HYDRA solution provided scaling when native options could not. If Lucid’s
software team lives up to its claims it could mean day-of-release scaling
for any PC title on HYDRA-enabled systems."

While the
overall voltage settings seem to be on par for the needs of experienced
overclockers, we did notice some stability issues with the DRAM's timings
and power configurations. Typically, we've had success setting the DRAM
ratio at its lowest setting and everything else to auto, but during our
overclocking experience with the P55-UD6 we had to set things up a bit
differently."
