Fujitsu introduces a new line of monitors that dramatically improve desktop PC ergonomics. The line is represented by three models: universal B Line, stylish X Line, and professional P Line. If compared with the previous generation of monitors designed by Fujitsu, these monitors are characterized by a faster startup activity, brighter display, heightened resolution, and more power-efficient operation. The latter is of crucial importance, since a new series consumes 60% less power than older models.



All three models are targeted primarily at corporate clients who spend the whole day at their PCs. According to the developers' words, monitors with 22-27 inch displays are the most suitable options for a prolonged work, since their ergonomic facilities (eye-care friendly, functional stand that allows changing the height and pitch of the display) ensure comfortable work during long hours on end.


Fujitsu P Line P27T-7 features 27-inch display with 2560 x 1440 resolution (QHD). …

The Taiwan Akasa vendor adds to its products range the Pascal MD (A-NUC40-M1B) chassis, designed for mini PCs, built on the Dawson Canyon generation Intel NUC boards. According to the key specs, published on the manufacturer’s web-site, the specialty is compatible with such boards: NUC7i3DNBE, NUC7i3DNKE and NUC7i3DNHE.

 

The remarkable thing about this framework is its IP65 protection level, making it safe from humidity and dust. Akasa Pascal MD is almost entirely made of aluminium and has the following physical dimensions: 234.6 x 238 x 76.3 mm. Fins on the panels act as a heatsink and are responsible for 15 W Intel Kaby Lake-U chipsets cooling. The supply set includes power cords 2 m long.

 

Particular attention should be paid to the presence of moisture-proof connectors, USB 3.0, RJ-45 and HDMI interfaces. This high protection degree allows the novelty to be utilized in the industrial sphere, alongside with various embedded systems.

The ASRock Co. has brought to the CES 2017 event its upgraded RX and GTX lines DeskMini PCs.



Details are obscure; however, general info is available. It is known, for example, that the dimensions of these devices are 210 х 137.5 х 81.9 mm. The motherboards utilized are of Mini-STX form factor, and the supposed CPUs are of the Kaby Lake generation.


The highest RAM capacity of these models equals to 32 GB; and there’s a possibility to embed drives due to the 2 SATA connectors and 3 M.2 slots. Such ports as USB 3.0 (x3), USB 2.0 (x2), HDMI (x2), DisplayPort, Mini DisplayPort, Thunderbolt 3 and Gigabit Ethernet deliver extra convenience.


These novelties can be equipped with either GeForce GTX 1060 or Radeon RX 460, RX 470, RX 480 (MXM) graphics cards. At the same time, the TDP rate should not exceed 120 W.


Therefore, we can assume that ASRock will produce fully gaming and rather effective VR compatible compact PCs.
