KingFast, a Chinese developer and supplier of high-end SSD solutions, decided to present quite a new approach in data caching by releasing a dedicated solid-state drive version. Model K25 Ultra-Cache is designed in 2.5-inch form-factor and is basically destined to fulfill various data caching procedures on availability of a slack HDD that can't cope with caching efficiently. In other words, this drive will add the required speed to the PC in which OS is installed on a traditional HDD. The most beneficial thing is that the customer won't have to deinstall OS in order to enhance the system by K25 Ultra-Cache.



This drive is equipped with 32GB of NAND MLC flash-memory and employs SATA 3Gb/sec interface. It should be mentioned that caching option is realized by means of a pre-installed Nvelo DataPlex program that facilitates all processes. The estimated consecutive Read speed achieves the margin of 270MB/sec, while consecutive Write speed is recorded at 190MB/sec.

Along with the launch of new PC chassis, Cooler Master is ready to release new G-series power supply units. The series is introduced by three models – G500, G600 and G700 – with 500W, 600W and 700W power, respectively. All of them correspond to ATX12V v2.3 standard, support Active PFC option and a range of protection tools (from short circuit, overvoltage, current overload, power overload). Moreover, these units employ a dual EMI-filter and take benefit from a single 120 mm fan with automatic speed control functions.


Cooler Master G-series PSUs have been felicitated with 80Plus Bronze certificate, due to their high efficiency (approximately 85%) and an estimated mean time between failures of 100.000 hours. The two junior models, G500 and G600, are able to operate at 456W and 576W load, correspondingly, on +12V rail. They are quipped with six SATA Power sockets and a pair of PCI Express Power 6+2-pin sockets. G500 unit will come to the market at the price of €60, while …

The Jonsbo vendor has recently released the CR-301 RGB CPU Cooler, compatible with AMD and Intel chipsets. The solution can be used with AMD FM1, FM2, AM2, AM2+, AM3, AM3+ chips alongside with Intel LGA 775, 1155/1156/1150/1151 processors. The ultimate value of heat energy dissipated is not to overcome 135 W.

 

The construction of this product features a two-section heatsink, the fins of which are located at right angle to the base, and six heat pipes (6 mm in diameter).

 

Jonsbo supplied its specialty with two 120 mm PWM-controlled fans with the 600–1,600 rpm rotary velocity. In the meanwhile, the noise level does not overcome 25 dBA. The cooler obtained multi-coloured backlighting, offering various operation modes.

 

CR-301 RGB has the 128 × 138 × 135 mm dimensions and weighs 890 g.
