Joybook 6000: BenQ´s new notebook
BenQ introduced 12.1" Joybook 6000 notebook that supports 1280x800 resolution (instead of usual 1024x768).
Joybook 6000 bases on Centrino platform (Intel Pentium M + GM855), so it naturally has 802.11b/g adapter, MS/SD/MMC card reader, 2 x USB 2.0, 1 x FireWire (IEEE 1394). The model is rather compact 302x218x23mm and weighs 1.6kg. The battery provides up to 8 hours of operation (with extended-capacity battery).
SwiftTech unveils two liquid cooling kits: H20-220/80
SwiftTech updated its liquid cooling series with new H20-220 and H20-80 kits. The former is designed for both "home overclockers", and 12-fan multi-way systems and servers. The kit includes heatsink for 2 x 120mm fans (72 CFM, 34 dBA, 2,100 rpm). From the previous model, 22600, the novelty differs by a new pump (MCP650 instead of MCP600):
- 50,000 hours MTBF
- 6-14V voltage (12V nominal)
- 24W nominal power at 12V
- Supervisory controlled brushless engine
- 50 PSI (3.5 bar) max. pressure
- 650 g weight
The kit dissipates 115W maximum.
H20-80 is alike H20-220, but has 80mm fan (2,700rpm, 31.4 CFM, 28dBA). MCR80-F2 fan + heatsink couple is sized 81.6x104.8x82.5mm. The kit dissipates 100W when cooling agent is hotter by 15°.
