The Cooler Master Taiwan Company has reported availability of Full-Tower Stryker SE and Trooper SE PC cases, introduced during the CES 2018 exhibition. The novelties represent renovated versions of the Storm Stryker and Storm Trooper frameworks, released over 5 years ago.

 

Stryker SE and Trooper SE obtained the side panel out of tempered glass and differ mostly in their colouring. The Stryker SE model is performed in black and white, while Trooper SE is entirely black. These specialties offer enough place for the XL-ATX motherboard, nine expansion cards, ATX compatible power supply, a two-slot video card, being installed vertically, five 2.5” and two 3.5” drives, alongside with one 5.25-inch device. The length of graphics adapters is not to overcome 322 mm, and the maximum height of the CPU cooler is 186 mm.

 

Customers have a possibility to mount four liquid cooling system heat sinks (one of the 360/280 mm, one of the 140 mm and two …

Up-to-date facilities provided by graphics cards manufacturers allow customers to create various graphic configurations, including the activation of several monitors within a single card. Indeed, contemporary technical approaches transform traditional video adapters into video gurus. The latest development of Sapphire, a flagship model Toxic HD 7970 GHz Edition, offers up to 6 GB of GDDR5 memory and promotes for the activation of six monitors in Eyefinity. Such options exceed those integrated into a reference model, AMD Radeon HD 7970 GHz Edition, and are able to ensure a dramatic increase in performance.



Technical Peculiarities


Sapphire decided to base its flagship model on GPU AMD Tahiti with an integrated delimiter which lowers the clock frequency on the overshoot of thermal threshold. Its standard frequency equals to 1050 MHz, nominal frequency – 1100 MHz; sill, this GPU features Lethal Boost options that increase the frequencies up to 1200 MHz. This graphics card is …

A new product by Acer resembles a nettop in appearance. However, taking into account its 419.5 × 100 × 291.6 mm dimensions, we should not concern it to be of this type of devices. This is about Aspire XC-730, operated by the preinstalled Windows 10 Home (64-bit) OS.



The system is based on the 4-core Intel Apollo Lake Pentium J4205 processor with 1.5–2.6 GHz actual frequency. The Acer Aspire XC-730 features 2 MB of cache SM, DDR4/DDR3L RAM dual-channel controller and an Intel HD 505 graphics solution. The CPU cooling system is likely to be passive; and the side panel holes provide additional chilling of inner components without the need in extra fans. The volume of RAM memory equals to 4 GB, though, can be extended to 8 GB. The HDD capacity is 1 TB at 7,200 rpm.


The novelty from Acer is equipped with a DVD-writer, an HDMI, a DisplayPort, a D-Sub, audio and four USB 3.0 ports, as well as with a Gigabit Ethernet slot and Wi-Fi adapter. The power consumption rate of this PC …
