While building up enthusiast or gaming system most people concentrate on purchasing the most powerful video cards or the best processors they are able to find and have enough money for. But the one more point most of them leave behind is that they need enough power to run everything. Though overall performance really depends on the choice of a processor and video card, without a quality PSU all the system’s performance will be useless.

Titan has introduced a revolutionary, in some way, fan that can be employed for multiple purposes. Except for being a part of cooling system involved in PC enclosure, Cloud Fan can also be utilized as a cooling means in offices, vehicles or at home. The compatibility with the majority of fixtures becomes possible due to the implementation of 1/4-inch perforations. The connection to the power supply is realized by means of three-contact socket.

SoC Intel Gemini Lake products, Cannon Lake processors, as well as Intel 300-series chipsets for desktop Coffee Lake CPUs will get builtin CNVi (Connectivity Integration) modules. It’s already clear, that these modules will contribute to Intel platforms wireless connectivity in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth networks.



CNVi obtains the Wi-Fi 802.11ac (and lower) MAC media access controller, MAC Bluetooth 5 controller and the wideband Bluetooth 5 modem. Radio-frequency Wi-Fi and WiGig components will stay as the discrete CRF (Companion RF) interface with a wideband Wi-Fi/WiGig modem and necessary high-frequency circuits/filters.


At present, the SoC/CPU/south bridge hold several wireless platform parts, which saves costs, simplifies design and solutions developing. However, the Intel company suggests using the CNVio interface and Wireless AC 9560 modules (available in M.2 2230 and M.2 1216 form factors) of its own making instead of PCIe and USB. We doubt whether it’ll be possible to …
