The majority of liquid cooling systems are developed with the implementation of practically identical hardware base. Nonetheless, Cooler Master stepped forward with introducing a cooler that involves the components of a higher level and that can be supplemented by some other components (if necessary). Codenamed Cooler Master Eisberg 240L Prestige, this model is an efficient tool in the hands of true cooling connoisseurs. Still, in order to judge about its efficiency, it’s necessary to review it from different angles.

In case you are looking for a slimline computer for solving simple routine tasks you should pay attention to the novelty in the ZOTAC ZBOX PICO series – namely the ZOTAC ZBOX PI335 model, featuring the entirely passive cooling.


The specialty is built on the 14 nm Intel Apollo Lake N3350 Processor (dual core/two threads, 1.1–2.4 GHz) with the integrated Intel HD Graphics 500 graphics engine. The capacity of the preinstalled LPDDR3 memory is 4 GB, and of the eMMC drive – 32 GB. The drive subsystem can be expanded via the memory card (microSD/microSDHC/microSDXC) or external USB storage device connection. This is facilitated by one USB 3.0 Type-C and two USB 3.0 ports.



Networking of the ZOTAC specialty is realized through the gigabit Ethernet (RJ45) port and a module of 802.11ac + Bluetooth 4.2 wireless interfaces. The combo 3.5 mm audio jack allows linking speakers or headphones, and HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.2 interfaces let connect monitors. Besides, VESA mounting is …

GeIL has replenished the inventory of DDR4 RAM items with its own set of memory modules. Entitled Super Luce, the new-comers are targeting gaming desktop PCs as well as enthusiast platforms. All kits are furnished with an uncommon iLuce Thermal backlight on the basis of white, red and blue lights. Along with a decorative mission, this backlight serves informational means: the higher the temperature of the system is, the brighter and more regular the light illuminates.



To continue, the backlight features five levels of flickering. The first level produces 13 twinkles per minute when the temperature is under 40 degrees; when the temperature rises to 40-50 degrees the number of twinkles increases to 60 per minute; 45-50 degrees enable 80 twinkles per minute, 120 twinkles are measures on 50-55 degrees, and finally, when thermal level achieves 55 and higher degrees the amount of twinkles jumps to 200 per minute.


GeIL Super Luce is compatible with Intel Haswell-E platform, …
