After a line of rumors and leaks, Nvidia has officially introduced its latest powerful graphics card, codenamed GeForce GTX 780 Ti. Thanks to the implementation of a full-fledged GK110 core and the increase of clock frequencies, the card is going to compete with GTX Titan model, as well as with a top-tier Radeon R9 290X from AMD. In view of such efficiency, its recommended price goes up to $700.



The GeForce GTX 780 Ti is equipped with GK110 GPU that contains 2880 stream processors (GTX Titan features 2688 of them), 7.1 billion transistors, 48 ROPs, and 240 TMUs with the support for FP16/FP32 trilinear filtration. The core operates at 875 MHz (nominal) and 928 MHz (overclocked) frequencies. All major components are allocated on a black PCB, equipped with PCI Express 3.0 x16 bus. The incorporated GDDR5 modules with 384-bit interface (overall capacity – 3 GB) run at 7008 MHz with the bandwidth of 336 Gb/sec.


Power supply is realized via a single 8-pin and a single 6-pin …

Intel Z87 platform is masterfully penetrating into all global markets. ASRock is the company that has already managed to introduce a set of products based on this platform, including Z87 Extreme6 model. The very board is supposed to be an advanced solution for enthusiasts, containing all necessary for specific usage attributes: POST-indicator, a powerful VRM system with a massive heatsink, and a lot of other facilities mentioned below.



Design and Layout


ASRock Z87 Extreme6 is designed in ATX form-factor with 305x244 mm dimensions. Its top side accommodates a large number of components, while the reverse side revels in three driver-doublers (ISL6611A) of CPU power rails only. Intel Z87 chipset is cooled down by a voluminous heatsink. A couple of additional ASM1061 controllers are soldered right to the system logics; they allow for the usage of up to ten devices with SATA 6 Gb/sec connectivity interface. The board comes with an integrated Intel HD Graphics 4600 graphics core. …

Recently Raijintek has produced a new product – a Dual-Compartment Chassis with Tempered Glass called Paean. Its awesome design features an aluminum dual section open frame/bench table ATX chassis and is constructed by 4 mm hair-silk Alu. dense base plate.



This wonderful creation of the Raijintek company offers its clients an extraordinary and up-to-date design with a dual chamber (CPU, MB and VGA are positioned at the front part with water cooling units, other elements are conveniently located on the back panel) and best cable arrangement. Dual side tempered glass makes it possible to see the inward.


One can place Paean in several ways – on a desk or as a bench table. PAEAN is compatible with 240/280/360 mm radiators and 6 HDD's / SSD's. Among other advantages of this framework is a fast setup due to its tool-free installations and renewable hardware, a maximum VGA length – 310 mm and a maximum PSU length – 200 mm.

Specification:

• 5.0 mm tempered glass and …
