HIS Radeon HD3870 X2 (H387X2F1GNP)
On paper, AMD/ATI is still in the lead, even at this year's CeBIT, since its new Radeon graphics chips belonging to the 3000 series are already compatible with DirectX 10.1 and Shader Model 4.1. While we have seen nothing more than rumours regarding Nvidia and its GX2 dual-GPU graphics card, ATI and board partner HIS are ready with a dual-chip card. The HD3870 X2 (R680) features two Radeon GPUs which in single-chip cards are known as HD 3870 parts (RV670). Communication between the two chips is handled through an on-board CrossFire link that does not have to be activated through the driver. Any game optimized for CrossFire thus practically has the power of two HD 3870's at its disposal.
The technical data read like something straight out of an automotive tuning magazine - 2 GPUs with a total of 640 stream processors (2 x 320) running at a clock speed of 825 MHz. The card packs a total of 1.3 billion transistors on the GPUs alone (2 x 666 million). 2 x 512 MB of GDDR3 memory running at 900 MHz are available for texture filtering and other image quality enhancements. The Radeon HD 3870 X2 measures 27 cm in length and sports a dual-slot cooler with a powerful fan that expels warm air out of the case and is surprisingly quiet in 2D mode.
For now, there is still room left for speculation as neither AMD/ATI nor HIS are providing any information regarding their CeBIT highlights. However, we have two potential predictions. The first would be that ATi releases the Quad-CrossFire enabled driver that has been locked so far, which would allow users to pair two HD 3870 X2 cards, resulting in the performance of four GPUs and 4 x 512 MB of video memory. The second potential highlight could be a slightly faster and quieter IceQ variant of the HD 3870 X2 made by HIS. So far we don't have any concrete information, but perhaps HIS will run with this idea.
HIS is set up in Hall 21 at stand B08 .

Hi All,I have just taken delivery of my Z500 and first results seem promising, After trying it out in my garden I played the footage back on my 47" HD LCD TV the pictures were stunning every detail including zoom footage was truly amazing, I think the owners manual could have been improved on and a little more detail would have been better, I have mine on 30 day appro, and no way is this going back.

I am a TomsHardware fan since 2003 and I will be forever.
I don't comment a lot but since I am right now, just wanna say that quality of some reviews are poor, reviews should go deep into details. I am not saying all reviews are poor... just some of them.
I got the 2263UW Samsung 22" Monitor for the hot design, sacrificed 10000:1 and 2ms and got 8000:1 and 5ms which is average in my consideration. Other Samsung monitors have better specs than this.
I have used Samsung, BenQ, ACER and ViewSonic LCD monitors and I like Samsung most in terms of visual quality.
The 2263UW didn't have a lot of reviews on the internet but I just went and grabbed it hoping for the best. I got a Samsung A panel which is supposed to be the best, however, I am really disappointed in the depth of color, the colors are not deep enough. I tried correcting it but I am still having problems. The monitor's menu is full of predefined settings which is really confusing.
I didn't test the web cam nor speakers. I didn't test the HDMI.
Touch sensitive buttons are reactive enough and aided with beeping sound but you can't tell which button you are pressing so you have to look at them. When you change a setting, the monitor lags for about 1 second like it's saving so the touch buttons will not react.
Don't expect a lot from the included software.
I am really disappointed in the color depth as in my previous experience, Samsung had rich colors. I will be looking for any new calibrations that give better colors.
My suggestion, don't buy this monitor, get another one.
I had great experience with Samsung, I am planning to get a new Samsung monitor soon if this one didn't meet my expectations.
Regarding the BlackLight Bleeding, most monitors bigger than 20" may have some, I have 1cm of bright black light bleeding at the top of the screen and some faded blacklight bleeding at the bottom of the screen.
