IWILL announces DJ800 and DN800 motherboards for Xeon processors Thermaltake unveils BigWater, water cooling system Tyan introduces Thunder i7525 for Xeon workstations GeForce 6800 GT (NV45) in our lab IWILL announces DJ800 and DN800 motherboards for Xeon processors Yet another company announced today its motherboards for Intel Xeon processors supporting EM64T (Nocona-based). This time it´s IWILL with DJ800 and DN800 boards. Both are designed for high-performance workstations, based on Intel E7525 chipset and differ by form-factors and expansion features.
IWILL DJ800 EATX board supports 2 x CPUs, has Intel ICH5R Southbridge, Adaptec SATA (optional Adaptec ZCR for up to 6 x SATA ports with RAID0, 1, 0+1), dual-channel DDR2-400 with ECC (up to 16GB). The board also has 1 x PCI Express 16x slot, 1 x PCI Express x4 slot, 1 x Intel Gigabit NIC port, 1 x 64-bit PCI-X 133 MHz slot, 2 x 64-bit PCI-X 100 MHz slots, 1 x 32-bit PCI 33 MHz slot, 8 x USB 2.0, 2 x IEEE1394a ports, and S/PDIF output.
IWILL DN800 ATX model has Intel 6300ESB controller, Adaptec SATA (2 ports with RAID 0, 1), dual-channel DDR333 with ECC (up to 8GB). The board has 1 x PCI Express x16 slot, 1 x PCI Express x4 slot, 1 x Intel Gigabit NIC port, 1 x Broadcom PCI Express GbE (Gigabit Ethernet) port, 2 x 64-bit PCI-X 66 MHz slots, 1 x 32-bit PCI 33 MHz slot, 4 x USB 2.0, 2 x IEEE1394a ports, 5.1-channel audio output.
Thermaltake unveils BigWater, water cooling system Thermaltake Technology unveiled its water cooling system codenamed BigWater (P/N:CL-W0005) that succeeds the Aquarius series. According to the company, the development was especially focused around safety. It´s not a secret that reliability factor often prevents potential users from purchasing water cooling.
In the first place, the company focused on drain pipes. BigWater features 120 liters/hour pump that powers from 12V and doesn´t require additional power sources. The pump works at 20 dB noise level and has LEDs indicating its state. Heatsink is another critical element. BigWater utilizes heatsink that slightly resembles those used in cars. Pipes with liquid pass through several aluminium fins. The 12cm fan has 8.6 CFM ~ 93.7 CFM performance at 17-21 dBA noise. More BigWater specs:
Tyan introduces Thunder i7525 for Xeon workstations Tyan introduced its new Thunder i7525 (S2676) motherboard on Intel E7525 chipset designed for high-end workstations.
The board supports up to 2 x Intel Xeon DP processors (800 MHz FSB), PCI Express x16, Registered DDR2-400 (PC4300; ECC). Besides PCI Express, it has 2 x PCI-X 133/100 MHz slots and 2 x 32-bit PCI slots. Additionally, the board features a dual-channel Ultra320 SCSI controller (Adaptec 7902W), Serial ATA RAID, ADI audio codec with SPDIF interface, Gigabit Ethernet (Broadcom). Being currently sampled, the board will be massively shipped in July.
GeForce 6800 GT (NV45) in our lab We are currently testing NVIDIA´s GeForce 6800 GT (NV45) PCI-Express graphics card with 256MB memory and 350/1000 MHz clock rates.
