Be Quiet! made a personal breakthrough in cooling area. The company has developed the first in its signature lineup liquid cooler targeting high-efficient CPUs. The Silent Loop supports all up-to-date as well as outdated platforms, including AMD FM1/AM2/AM2+/AM3/AM3+/FM2/FM2+ & Intel Socket LGA2011-3/2011/1366/115x/775. The cooler is ready to dissipate up to 400 W power; hence, it might be integrated within overclocking and gaming systems.



The model is a combination of a water block, patch cables (up to 390 mm in length), a heatsink (319x144x30 mm), and a pair of 140-mm fans (Pure Wings 2). At first sight, the layout is standard. However, the cooler features a range of interesting technical solutions. For example, it houses an isolated reverse pump which ensures low noise level & minimal level of vibrations. The reverse stream technology enables the injection of a coolant from the external counter to the internal one via a cooling plate. This is called to enhance heat …

Present-day power supply units are the devices which combine the advanced technologies with eco-friendly approach. Their major destination is to provide the PC nodes with direct current electric power, however, PSU can realize additional stabilizing and protective functions. Aurum AU-1200 Pro belongs to the units of FSP series and offers an ideal combination of quality, efficiency and security. This PSU is based on MIAIC technology which ensures high performance characteristics and good level of PC protection.



Design and Integration


Unlike the traditional PSU design concept, FSP Aurum AU-1200 Pro is developed with a note of uniqueness. Its black casing creates an illusion of unflinching reliability, while the golden bordering of ventilation array adds some refinement to the unit. Aurum AU-1200 Pro is rather compact as compared to other units available in the market. It should be mentioned that developers succeeded in their attempts to achieve the maximal air outflow due to …

Asustor has replenished its production line with a pair of NAS servers – AS6202T & AS6204T — which joined AS 6 Series lineup. The new-comers are estimated for the installation of 2 and 4 drives correspondingly with the maximal aggregate capacity of 12 TB and 24 TB. The drives might be joined into various arrays, including RAID 0/1/5/6, RAID Single, JBOD, RAID 1/5 + Hot Spare, etc. Both items run under ADM OS and are backed by a 3-year’s limited warranty.



Asustor AS6 network storages boast a vertical rack construction. They are based on a 4-core Intel Celeron N3150 CPU that operates at 1.6 GHz frequency with the overclocking possibility of 2.08 GHz. The CPU is accompanied by 4 GB of SO-DIMM DDR3L memory. The models are characterized by rich connectivity options; they offer 3x USB 3.0 ports, 2x USB 2.0 ports, 2x eSATA ports, 1x HDMI 1.4b port, 2x gigabit Ethernet ports, S/PDIF port, and IR.


Drive trays accommodate dedicated locks. Besides, the manufacturer has added Hot …
