IBM's Zurich labs have developed a new heatsink and water-cooling that promises to cool chips up to six times better than conventional air cooling. The heatsink contains tiny channels similar to the capillaries you would see in tree leaves and in human circulator systems. The channels allow either water or heatsink compound to spread more uniformly and thereby dissipate more heat. Read more
Fujitsu today said that it has successfully developed carbon-nanotube-based heatsinks for semiconductors such as memory and microprocessors. According to the company, carbon nanotubes can effectively amplify signals and dissipate heat simultaneously. Read more
Corsair will be launching their newest and fastest RAM at the upcoming Cebit show in Germany. Intel users can purchase the Twin2x1024-8500 DDR2 RAM which runs at 1066 Mhz, while AMD fans can buy the Twinx2048-4400Pro which clocks in at 550 Mhz. Read more
According to sources, the entire line of G84 and G86 chips all suffer from the same defect, regardless of desktop or notebook application. Read more
For the first time ever, gamers are being treated to a reasonably priced platform enabling the best that AMD and Nvidia have to offer. Is Core i7 a gamer’s nirvana or does the processor serve up more of the same? Read more
After discovering Intel's Overspeed Protection in yesterday's first-look at Core i7's performance, we're back to set the record straight on the overclocking headroom of the flagship 965 Extreme and entry-level Core i7 920. Read more
Core i7--previously referred to as Nehalem--requires new motherboards, coolers and memory. Its performance is compelling and means AMD is falling behind even further, but Intel is putting in some speed bumps that will impact overclocking enthusiasts. Read more
Three dramatically different builds face off in a show of performance, defining the real value of each. Our mainstream system is designed to meet the needs of most users. Who should spend more and who can live with less? Read more
