CES 2007 - New Gear

Dell intros 3.2 GHz quad-core enthusiast PC

 

"First, there is an overclocked Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 CPU, which runs at 3.2 GHz. Dell added 4 GB of memory, two 160 GB (10,000 rpm) hard drives, two Nvidia 8800 GTX graphics cards, a 20" widescreen monitor as well as a gaming keyboard."

2000W power supplies appear

 

"The guys at OCZ essentially placed two 900W PSUs inside a huge external box which connects to the small box which will be installed inside the case. Modular approach resulted in enormous amount of cables for the components, so even connecting two motherboards should not prove to be a problem (or a motherboard and a rail for the external dual graphics box, but we didn't told you that).

...

ULTRA took a different approach, putting a single chassis system with separate power elements for the 12V, giving out 150 Ampers of power for the components that ride the 12V rail. There is also one small issue for US households. Since the electric current is specc'ed at 15A per socket, US users will have to use two power cables in order to get the PSUs running."

Seen that, been there, off topic... :Busted:

 

Besides, back on topic, I'd rather have CES 2007: Westinghouse shows off the Quad HDTV

 

"Of course, the Quad HDTV was our first target at the Westinghouse booth. The 52" TV runs a super high-resolution of 2160p (3840 x 2160 pixels). In absolute numbers, the device is running a stunning 8.3 megapixels - four times more than 1080p TVs (1920x1080p) and more than twice the resolution of Dell's, HP's and Apple's 30" desktop LCDs. So, what do you get from this resolution, especially if HD DVD and Blu-ray are running only 1080p anyway?"
