Several days are left till the official introduction of a new flagship motherboard from Intel, known as DZ87KLT-75K (Kinsley). The board is based on an overclocking Z87 Express chipset and employs 8-phase CPU power supply system. Memory subsystem is represented by four DIMM slots for DDR3 modules, while expansion facilities involve three PCIe 3.0 x16 slots, three PCIe 2.0 x1 slots, a single PCI and a single mini-PCI slot. Storage capacities accommodate eight SATA III 6 Gb/sec ports.



Overclockers, as well as experienced users, will receive an opportunity of utilizing Power and Reset buttons right from the printed circuit board. This model offers 7.1-channel sounding, based on a corresponding controller, eight USB 3.0 ports, FireWire port, optical S/PDIF, a pair of gigabit Ethernet ports to enable network options, a single mini-DisplayPort and one Thunderbolt port. Frontal interface panel is able to propose a couple of USB 3.0 ports, Bluetooth 4.0 and Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n modules. … …

The ID-Cooling manufacturer keeps enriching its liquid cooling systems product range aimed at processing units. This time we are speaking about the closed-type ID-Cooling Auraflow 240 system, which stands out for its RGB LED-lighting, being able to synchronize colour and effects with the Asus Aura solution.



The water block is equipped with a C-shaped light diffuser. The heatsink fans are also illuminated; and the backlighting is powered through a stand-alone 12 V connector on the baseboard.


The 65x36 mm water block is backed by a copper cooler with scaled-down submerged ribs, which enlarges the overall heat transfer area. Ceramic bearings’ projected service life is up to 50,000 hours at the 2,100 rpm rotary velocity. Meanwhile, the noise level doesn’t exceed 25 dBA.


ID-Cooling Auraflow 240 features an aluminium heat dissipator, two 120 mm SF-12025 fans, 315 mm long sleeves, protected by the textile braiding. At the initial 7 V loading fans rotate at the 700–1,800 …

The Taiwan Enermax vendor replenishes its product offering with a Mid-Tower Equilence chassis, which has made its first appearance in the frame of the Computex 2017 exhibition.



The novelty is intended for ATX mother cards installing and for low-noise systems assembling. It got a 4 mm tempered glass side, making all inner components clearly visible, and three (front, upper and side) panels, provided with dense sound insulating foam.


The Equilence PC Case can hold seven expansion cards of the up to 420 mm length, an ATX-compatible power supply, a couple of 3.5” and four 2.5” drives. Высота процессорной системы охлаждения не должна превышать 175 мм.


This specialty affords flexibility concerning air and liquid cooling systems mounting. Thus, one can install up to nine 120 mm fans, as well as heat sinks of the 360, 280, 240, 140 and 120 mm form factor. The CPU cooler ultimate height equals 175 mm. Coonectivity …
