[Guest]

CES 2010 is officially over, but we have one more day's worth of coverage to give you. Loyd's wrap-up includes a tantalizing shot of Intel's second-gen Atom with Nvidia's GT218 core, an OCZ USB 3.0 external SSD, and a new headset from SteelSeries.

That Zotac looks really nice. I wonder how small of a case you can cram 5750 in to with out overheating.

Imagine that board + a GTX260 in this: http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=178077

It’s a great time to be a tech geek.

Can I hear an AMEN?

The Zotac mini ITX interests me. I'm all about getting something powerful AND portable.

"unnamed company getting ready to launch an unnamed GPU"

Normally we only have two companies to choose from. Is a third company about to make a debut? Inquiring minds want to know!!!

Does this board has a HDTV tuner? If it is intended for HTPC type application, it lacks a PCIe 1X slot for the tuner card. Or better yet, have the tuner feature build in just like the WiFi.

I hadn't even seen that Zotac board this year at CES! Good god, how could I miss it?

I imagine it may not be the most overclockable, the I've been dying to build a new LAN party rig (I haven't attended one with my own computer since 2007). Micro-ATX boards were just ok, but this, this is huge! I mean, tiny!

Wonder if there is an ITX case that can hold a 5870... or the new Fermi stuff once it hits...

Ugh, its only available in the UK so far.... wonder what the US retail cost will be?

"The company is moving to a larger driver (50mm versus 40mm) with a rated frequency response of 10 Hz-28 kHz. He reasons that precise imaging is increasingly important in certain types of gaming."

I refuse to deal with audio companies that even try to hint that 10-28 is better than 20-20 when that's the limits of perfect human hearing. Claiming otherwise shows they're out for money and not actual quality.
