Model SG09 is the ninth chassis of Sugo series designed by SilverStone. Upon the whole, the series consists basically of compact parallelepiped casings that presuppose the integration of small-sized mini-ITX motherboards only. Still, Sugo SG09 features more voluminous dimensions (354x220x295 mm) and cubic-like casing that widens its compatibility area a bit. All previous Sugo models were perceived primarily as compact solutions with a quite aesthetic design. But Sugo SG09 positions itself as a reliable platform for a powerful PC system.



Layout


Chassis SilverStone Sugo SG09 has got rather unusual layout due to the need to accommodate a full-sized PSU, a lengthy graphics adapter, a voluminous CPU cooler, and some kind of data storage system in a casing of 23 liters in capacity. As a result, the developers created a one-volume casing with vertical PSU in the frontal part, vertical motherboard tray, and vertical bays for hard drives located on the reverse side of the tray.

Intel Corporation has the intentions to introduce DDR4 memory into their server processors of Haswell series. The launch of such technological approach is planned for the 2014, however the developments in this sphere have already started. Intel’s server solutions will become a part of Grantley platform and the samples of their new series will allegedly be announced next autumn. The preview of new processors makes it clear that some of the chips will be distinguished by the increased heat generation performance which will reach 160 W.



Hence, 16-core processors Haswell-EP will rival parallel computing accelerator NVIDIA Tesla but not AMD server solutions. Intel is going to provide various working frequency options and options with different number of active cores. At the same time, TDP will fluctuate within ranges of 160, 145, 135, and 120 W. In its turn, accelerator NVIDIA Tesla, which is based on GK110 processor, consumes approximately 300 W.

Introduction


This is still a question about monitors: what buyers need more – highly precise specifications of the image or gaming versions.

4K Monitors for professional graphical design usually got less attention that their gaming analogues. But they are important for a number of users too.

Acer decided to fill in this gap and made ProDesigner BM320 4K specially for professional graphics. Its alternative name is Acer BM320. As Acer claims, ProDesigner BM320 is provided with precise color rendering, large display size for easy development of projects, and with brilliant color managing functions.

Let’s investigate these and other Acer ProDesigner BM320 characteristics.



Design


You will find the device in the carton filled with protection blocks.

Inside there is HDMI, a cable for audio connection, DisplayPort, USB cables, and an IEC cord for the internal power supply.

The chassis is thin enough and there are bezels of 10mm on the top and both sides.
