Monitors with high resolution have deeply penetrated into our lives. Full HD resolution is considered to be a necessity for the up-to-date video standard, so manufacturers of not only PC monitors but also other devices, such as smart phones, mobile gadgets, etc., try to implement this standard into their products. Still, progress marvels us with a new development: more advanced WQHD resolution of 2560x1440 is gradually integrated into the monitors. Dell decided not to lag behind the pioneers in this sphere and designed a new model U2712HM.



Design and Ergonomics


Monitor Dell U2713HM is housed in a black or silver-black dull casing. The implementation of WLED lighting allowed the manufacturer to reduce the depth of the enclosure. It is fixed on a durable plastic stand connected to a black base with beveled angles and a central turntable. The base is made of solid metal; its rear board accommodates six rubber feet which are firmly pressed to the surface and save the monitor …

Together with a famous overclocker Vince Lucido EVGA company has prepared EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti K|NGP|N Hydro Copper GAMING (11G-P4-6799-KR) – an innovative video card, which is able to meet expectations of the most affluent and exacting gamers.

 

The novelty is based on the NVIDIA GP102 (3,584 CUDAs) graphics processor, featuring the 1,582/1,695 MHz frequency pattern, which overcomes reference rates of 1,480/1,582 MHz. GPU is accompanied by 11 GB of the GDDR5X memory with the 11 GHz effective frequency. While possessing the 352-bit bus, the product ensures the 484 Gbps bandwidth capacity. The 10+3-phase power scheme is applied.

 

A copper waterblock, connected to the liquid cooling system circuit, entirely covers the PC-board and chills all inner components effectively. A backplate protects the device at the rear side. Besides, EVGA has integrated its brand iCX technology and installed 9 temperature sensors for monitoring.

Fractal Design comes out with a new series of liquid coolers. The ‘Kelvin’ lineup is introduced by three models – T12, S24, S36 – which are differentiated by the amount of fans. The triple is targeting any up-to-date system based on Intel or AMD CPUs (Intel LGA 2011/1366/1150 and AMD FM2+/FM2/FM1/AM2+/AM2/AM3+/AM3). Their price is set at $99.99, $119.99 and $139.99 for one-fan, two-fan and three-fan model correspondingly.



Fractal Design Kelvin coolers boast an enclosed design that does not require additional maintenance during operation. They consist of a waterblock with a copper base, a powerful pump with a ceramic bearing, a copper heatspreader, and 1/2/3 Silent HP fans (of 120 mm dimensional type). The latter support PWM technology that adjusts rotational speed within 700-1700 PRM ranges; they are ready to produce up to 62.4 CFM airflow at 26.9 dB noise.


It should be noted that ‘Kelvin’ coolers might be expanded by new components. For instance, the T12 is …
