CALIBRE GTS450 WITH ARCTIC COOLING TWIN TURBO PRO

Produce a relatively low temperature, using the Arctic Cooling Twin Turbo Pro

Calibre doesn't ever miss to update their graphic cards product. Calibre also known always use 3rd party cooling system on each product. Not only that, Calibre is also identical to overclock, almost the entire product launch always has a core and over clocked higher than the reference version.

It is also applicable to their latest products, Calibre GTS 450, this graphics card comes with 1GB DDR5 memory capacity. This card even comes with an unusual HSF. GTS450 provide solutions to a large cooling system, and two fans who also are large. HSF is the Artic Cooling Twin Turbo PRO which has 3 heatpipes that distribute heat from the GPU to the heatsink and removed through the two fans. 

So, how exactly effectiveness of HSF? after going through 3DMark Vantage testing to determine performance, and the resulting temperature (tests conducted by an agency in Indonesia). In 3DMark deault settings with 1280x1024 resolution that all successfully passed without a hitch with a score of 8766. This score is higher than the scores obtained by the GTS 450 references.

In Gamming Benchmark DXII, using stalker: call of Pripyat. this Graphics card has good performance. and on more detail picture test with 1920x1080 resolution,  on average this card produce 79 FPS. What is even more surprising when the temperature measurement is produced, because the graphic card produces a very safe temperature. The heat generated when idle is 26°C , and 38°C at full load. This proves the ability of HSF Arctic Cooling, that used is work effectively.


But you should know, if you think the performance of this card is not too different from previous series namely the GTX 460, you seem to be a little disappointed because the results obtained from the tests above, it isn't better than that obtained by the GTX 460. but it can be understood because the specifications of both which are very much different.

EVGA GTX570 SUPERCLOCKED

Rely the reference boards, reference cooling, and factory overclocked support

Recently, NVIDIA has launched a chip-based products GF110. One of its products is the GeForce GT570. Like the other new graphics card launch, many manufacturers who develop their products from this chip, one of them is EVGA

Although the GTX570 is still a new product, but EVGA respond quickly. In fact, EVGA trying to create product with the stamp "SuperClocked" (SC), SuperClocked EVGA is one of the three series of factory overclocked and is the lowest ranked of the three series. for this product EVGA raise the clock speed of 65 MHz for the core, 130Mhz for the shaders, and 25Mhz on the memory.

For their factory overclocked product, the EVGA still believe with the stock coolling vapor chamber, the property of Geforce GTX570. as well as PCB design that still uses reference board. Chip GF110 that became the center of the process on the GeForce GTX570 comes with 480 shader or called CUDA cores. Just by making some changes in the power management and cooling.The amount is the same as GeForce GTX480, the high-class monster graphics card owned by NVIDIA.

This change makes GeForce GTX570 work more efficiently and lower temperature. In the testing phase, the core graphics card temperature at idle is 49°C, and it reaches 85°C when full load. Although somewhat higher, the temperature is much lower than the GeForce GTX480 temperature , which reached 95°C when full load. Not only that,  you also will not hear the noise of the fan in the cooling system.

Other advantages ofthis product can be seen from the results of 3D Mark Vantage test, which achieved a score 21,793 points for 1280 x 1024 resolution, and 15,766 points for 1920 x 1080 resolution. same result was also obtained in gaming benchmarks DiRT2, stalker: Call of Pripyat, and Crysis Warhead. Although sometimes, in the Crysis test with a 1920 x 1080 resolution , FPS obtained become lower up to 27fps but the game is still comfortable to play,

And for those of you who are not satisfied with the performance of this product, NVIDIA provides support the international answering up to 4way that will make this graphics card capable of devouring all the latest games without resistance.

AMD Fusion APU.

The balance between performance X86, Graphics, and Parallel Computing.

AMD Fusion Accelerated Processing Unit (APU) is a category of AMD's latest mobile chips that had been carried Neo AMD Athlon processor, VIA Nano, Intel Atom, and Intel Core ULV.
 

AMD has long stated its intention to merge the ability of the x86 CPU (general purpose, and serial data processing) and discrete graphics GPU, which excel at data parallel processing. Precisely since they do a merger with graphics manufacturer ATI in 2006. finally in 2011 in Events CES 2011 in Las Vegas last January, AMD formally announced the official attendance at APU that claim is supported by a number of large vendors such as Acer, Asus, Dell, Fufitsu, HP, Lenovo, MSI, Samsung, Sony, and Thosiba.

APU is part of AMD's Fusion architecture introduced since 2009. combination of CPU and GPU in one chip APU that looks simple, but in fact, it is a series of development process and production process are complex and time consuming. Barriers are not just about hardware implementation in this case is to merge CPU and GPU, but also in the design process to work optimally on CPUGPU technology (general purpose computation of Graphics Processing Unit). Just like OpenCL and computers are starting to be used directly in the software, Fusion Architecture needs to be designed carefully to ensure that can be developed further for the next two or three generations. Other factors are the focus of AMD is to create compatible architecture with the previous generation architecture and next generation.

Unlike Intel which is independent in the chip manufacturing process.. AMD relies on other parties in the APU chip manufacturing process, for zacate APU (E series) and Ontario (Series C) using 40nm production technology from TSMC.and scheduled to finish in 2011, many others APU Fusion, such as the Liano (series A) are targeted for deskop, will use the 32nm production technology from Global Foundries. AMD Fusion APU first released, consisting of four series, two Serie (Zacate) and two series C (Ontario). Series E (zacate) targeted for mainstream notebook, all in one. And Small Form Factor (SFF) deskop, consisting of E (1.5GHz single core with a TDP of 18 W) and E-350 (dual core 1.6 GHz with TDP18W). The second series (Ontario) is targeted for a netbook or a tablet, consisting of C-30 (single core GHz with a TDP of 9 W 1.2) (1.0 GHz dual-core processors with TDP 9 W) C and-50.

Next target: consumer electronics
Intel has stated its intention to enter the consumer electronics area with the presence of atoms embedded chip, which is implanted in the Google TV. Although AMD has not entered into the world of tablet that becomes a trend in the market, AMD still believe if they X86 technology, is ready to compete with Intel and other development company.

A new innovation in IPHONE 4

have the latest phone from apple, namely iphone 4. This isn't only a desire to enjoy the sophistication of multimedia fiture. However, iPhone 4 also has become a trend gadget in 2011 with some new innovations in it, which is increasingly moving towards the use of data as the main base phone. So, what's the iphone 4 advantage, when compared with the previous iphone issued by apple. please read the following brief explanation.



as an example, I'll try to compare the iPhone 4 with  the iPhone 3Gs.

Data Access
When compared with the previous iPhone, namely iPhone 3GS. iPhone 4 have been modified as well as possible to speed data access and provide convenience to the users. For example on iPhone 3GS still using HSDPA data network, which has download speeds up to 7.2 Mbps. Meanwhile, on iPhone 4 have used HSUPA networks, with download speeds up to 5.8 Mbps.

Hardware
in addition, iphone 4, the processor has a larger capacity than the processor capacity in iPhone 3GS. iPhone 4, has 1GHz processor capacity, with 512 MB of RAM (Random Access Memory), while in iPhone 3GS use 600MHz processor with 256 MB of RAM. Of course, the improvement of hardware and data network in the iphone 4, have been able to cover the shortfall in the previous gadget. even it is not only done in hardware but also software that includes the features in it. so I think it's fair, if now iPhone 4 be hunted by the lovers of gadgets.

Application
iPhone 4 have an application that is certainly different from the previous gadget, because the gadget is equipped with FaceTime applications, which can be used for videocall activities, when the feature is activated it will show two faces of those who are conducting a conversation using videocall.
IPhone front camera has VGA resolution, but unfortunately, to do FaceTime you have to use wifi, and both handsets have the same type, and have the same application as well. But if you do not already have iPhone 4, you do not need to be disappointed because you can still use the FaceTime to make a videocall, by injecting the application to the Macbook.
in addition Facetime, there are also other leading applications contained in iPhone 4, namely Retina Display application, this application has a screen resolution of 960x640 px. This resolution certainly larger than the iPhone 3GS which has a resolution of 480x320px.
