Galaxy Microsystems, an official partner of Nvidia, has just introduced a couple of proprietary graphics solutions based on Nvidia’s GeForce GTX 760 and GeForce GTX 780 Ti adapters. Codenamed GTX 760 Gamer and GeForce GTX 780 Ti HOF (Hall of Fame), both products are differentiated by a refined design, combined with unmatched performance.


Galaxy GTX 760 Gamer


This graphics card is attributed to the mid-end solutions. It is developed on Nvidia GK104-225-A2 chip (28 nm) that involves 1152 CUDA cores, 32 ROPs, and 96 TMUs. The GPU operates at 1086 MHz, although has the potential to rise up to 1150 MHz on overclocking. The card boasts the availability of 4 GB GDDR5 memory with 256-bit bus. Its effective clock memory makes up 6 GHz. Cooling process is realized by means of a voluminous cooler, supplemented by two 80 mm fans and a metallic shield.

This model is peculiar by an original white PCB and the implementation of factory …

Elitegroup Computer Systems (ECS) presents its novelty – a compact computer, named LIVA Z Plus(Ver ZE). This device of a small form factor is put into the 117 × 128 × 51 mm framework.



The specialty by ECS is built on the Intel Kaby Lake architecture and operated by Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Windows 10 operating systems. Depending on the modification, Core i5-7300U, Core i5-7200U, Core i3-7100U or Celeron 3965U processors are applied. The DDRR4 internal memory of up to 32 GB (in the form of two SO-DIMM modules) capacity can be installed.


The nettop may be equipped with a solid-state module of the М.2 (2242) format. Direct graphics interface specification includes HDMI 1.4 and DisplayPort. There are three USB 3.0 Type-A connectors and there is one USB Type-C port. Two sequential ports are present, too. Wireless connectivity is ensured by Wi-Fi 802.11ac and Bluetooth 4.0 controllers. The device is supplied with the dual port Gigabit LAN network adapter and interfaces, …

For several years, developed Intel Larrabee graphics cards have changed its destiny, and now proudly referred to coprocessors Xeon Phi. The June announcement gave a very rough idea of ​​their characteristics and applications (highly specialized servers and workstations). Now some details will be revealed.



Bboosters Xeon Phi will be available in versions with 57, 60 and 61 core. There are in general 64 computational units, but some of them will be disabled. Depending on the number of cores the cache size varies from 1.8-1.9 MB first level and 28-30,5 MB second. The volume of onboard GDDR5 memory is 3, 6, and 8 GB.


Intel Xeon Phi device will operate on a low clock rate from 600-1100 MHz for the lower 57-core models with 3 and 6 GB of GDDR5, to the 630-1050 MHz or more for the older 60 — and 61-core board with 8 GB of RAM. Effective memory frequency will be in the range of 5-5.5 GHz. Support for dynamic overclocking Turbo Boost will be provided by reasonable balance of …
