Waterblock EK Water Blocks EK-FC Titan is designed for 3D-card NVIDIA GeForce GTX Titan

Company EK Water Blocks, recently introduced a water block EK-FC7990 for 3D-card AMD Radeon HD 7990 , did not also yield other powerful 3D-card - NVIDIA GeForce GTX Titan . Slovenian manufacturer introduced a water block with an obvious name EK-FC Titan. By the way, the intention to use water blocks EK-FC Titan to cool 3D-card NVIDIA GeForce GTX Titan, installed in its high-performance desktop PC has announced the company Origin PC .

Water block covers almost the entire surface of the printed circuit board, the heat from the GPU, memory chips and voltage regulators. In an area adjacent to the GPU, formed microchannels, improving heat dissipation.

Waterblock EK-FC Titan is available in four versions. In two of these nickel-plated copper base, two others - no.In each pair, there is a model with a transparent cover made of acrylic plastic with an opaque lid POM Acetal.

The water block is designed for fitting G1 / 4 ".

Up to four water blocks EK-FC Titan can be used in a single system, using the appropriate number of cards connectors EK-FC Terminal.

Prices for EK-FC Titan are 90-100 euros, depending on the version.

Greenliant will market embedded SSD I-temp NANDrive, designed to operate at temperatures from -40 ° C to +85 ° C

At Embedded World 2013 event to be held in Nuremberg from 26 to 28 February, the company plans to show Greenliant embedded solid state drives I-temp NANDrive, designed to operate in temperatures ranging from -40 ° C to +85 ° C.

A feature of these is the use of SSD in their flash memory MLC NAND, more affordable than the memory of SLC NAND. In addition, the SSD I-temp NANDrive uses flash memory controller of its own design Greenliant, the chip is enclosed in a single package with a chip flash memory.

To improve the reliability and service life in the controller has a function of load. There is also a protection against data corruption in the event of power failure, the ability to select protected areas, a function to erase the selected zones and evaluation function is the remaining life of SSD.

Deliveries drives I-temp NANDrive of 8, 16 and 32, and 64 GB Interface SATA (GLS85LS) and an 8, 16 and 32 GB Interface PATA (GLS85LP) have already begun.

SMART Storage Systems equips first SSD-size 1.8-inch SAS drives

The industry's first SSD-size 1.8-inch, equipped with interface Serial Attached SCSI (SAS), is called a representation of its new SSD series Optimus company SMART Storage Systems. According to the manufacturer, the SSD is designed with application in areas where the requirements of high performance and reliability are combined with restrictions on dimensions.

In particular, the model Optimus size 1.8 inch SAS drives are designed for blade-servers. According to SMART Storage Systems, In sequential read and write, they develop a speed of up to 500 MB / s, and productivity in operations with random access reaches 100,000 IOPS in read and 45,000 IOPS - in recording mode. The manufacturer notes that these figures remain high during the entire five-year warranty period of the product.

Scheduled to release drives of 200 and 400 GB. They use flash memory type MLC NAND consumer class.Increase the life of the drive up to the level corresponding to the above stated areas of application, use complex technologies, received the general name of Guardian Technology Platform. As a result, according to the SMART Storage Systems, the drive is able to withstand 10 complete rewrites every day for five years.

The first samples of size 1.8-inch Optimus SAS drives will come on to customers in the second quarter of this year.

Published specifications for the processor AMD Opteron 4365

Last fall, it was announced the immediate availability of blade servers SeaMicro SM15000 . At the time the server was available on the processor Intel Xeon E3-1260L, but eventually were scheduled delivery and other options: processors Xeon E3-1265L v2 (Ivy Bridge) processors and AMD Opteron (Piledriver) unnamed models.

On the Opteron processors were aware that they will have eight cores and work at the base frequency of 2 GHz, which is using Turbo Core will rise to 2.3 and 2.8 GHz. Details about this processor power were found on the AMD website this week. He called Opteron 4365, but given the very low TDP, it would be more appropriate to call it the Opteron 4365 EE.

As mentioned in the initial announcement, Opteron 4365 has eight cores Piledriver, clocked at 2 GHz. Processor supports Turbo Core, which can increase the operating frequency of up to 2.3 GHz for all cores, or up to 2.8 GHz, is active up to four cores. It has 8 MB cache second level and 8 MB cache in the third level. There is support for virtualization technology AMD-V. Most likely, Opteron 4365 also supports all expansion teams inherent core Piledriver, such as SSE4, AES, AVX, and FMA. The processor is characterized by TDP 40 W, which is about 10% better indicator of the above models Intel Xeon E3-1260L and E3-1265L v2. It is designed to be installed in slot C32.
