Teclado Lavável da Logitech

URL: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/digitaldrops/~3/TCQF2xmIJ28/story01.htm

O teclado é muito provavelmente a parte mais suja do seu computador e também é a parte mais difícil de limpar, especialmente as teclas. A Logitech pensou nisso e anunciou um teclado totalmente à prova d'água.

O teclado Logitech Washable Keyboard K310 foi criado para ser abusado e você pode teclar enquanto come batas fritas ou uma costelinha e pode derramar o que quiser nele desde Coca-Cola, café, guaraná até iogurte e ketchup. Depois é só mergulha-lo na pia, lavar e pronto, tá bem novinho e limpinho!

O teclado Logitech Washable Keyboard K310 pode ser imerso por inteiro na água sem nenhum problema e é compatível com Windows 7, XP e Vista (o Mac vai continuar com o teclado imundo).

O teclado lavável Logitech Washable Keyboard K310 custa US$39,99 na pré-venda da Logitech.com.

URL: http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/graphics/display/inno3d-ichill-geforce-gtx-670-herculez-3000.html

The new product from Inno3D Company impressed us not that much with its performance or overclocking potential, but with its unprecedentedly low noise. Actually, it would be more correct to say the absence of noise. Read our review to find out how they managed to accomplish that.

$50 Sound Cards Impress Versus Integrated Audio

URL: http://rss.slashdot.org/~r/Slashdot/slashdot/~3/SHZtqyUAi20/50-sound-cards-impress-versus-integrated-audio

crookedvulture writes "Most PCs have audio integrated right on the motherboard. There's much to be gained from upgrading to a discrete sound card, though. This look at a couple of sub-$50 sound cards from Asus explores what can be found at the budget end of the spectrum. In blind listening tests, both cards produced better sound than an integrated solution. They also offered superior signal quality, but neither had an impact on gaming performance. The days of hardware-accelerated game audio seem to be behind us, with developers handling positional audio processing in software."

Panasonic preps SD cards that survive heat, water and X-rays, will probably outlast you

URL: http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/09/panasonic-preps-sd-cards-that-survive-heat-water-and-x-rays/

Much ado has been made of weather-resistant cameras, but it's all a moot point if the memory card dies, isn't it? Panasonic wants that level of survivability in its SDHC and SDXC cards, and its new UHS-I-level SDAB and SDUB lines are tested for the kind of abuse that could see the camera give up the ghost first. The cards can take the kinds of punishment that we often associate with rugged gear, such as temperatures from -13F to 185F, immersion in 3.3 feet of water for half an hour and the usual steep drops. It's beyond this that the resistance levels become truly exotic: the cards are also built to survive zaps of electricity, proximity to magnets and exposure to X-rays. If it all becomes too much to bear, the design will even fuse on the inside to prevent fire burning the card from within. Those who like what they see will only have to decide whether or not they want the SDAB range's 95MB/s read speeds and 80MB/s writes or are willing to settle for the SDUB line's respective 90MB/s and 45MB/s transfers. We have yet to see if or when the SD cards cross the Pacific after their September 8th launch in Japan, although we hope so -- with that kind of extra-tough design, our photos are more likely to endure than we will.

A quick look at Corsair's Professional Series AX1200i digital power supply

URL: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/techreport/articles/~3/YWmtCwaNUoI/23367

Your PC's power supply may be the most critical component in the entire system. It's charged with feeding everything from your CPU to your graphics card to your SSD with a steady flow of life-giving electrons. If a power supply goes bad, it can damage other system components in a puff of magic smoke. Even when operating correctly, lousy PSUs can exhibit poor efficiency and high noise levels.

Why don't we cover them more? Frankly, because PSUs are rarely very interesting. They convert AC to DC power and, well, ...

Ivy Bridge 3770K IHS removal and results

URL: http://www.silentpcreview.com/IvyBridge_3770K_IHS_removal_and_results

The high core temperatures of Ivy Bridge CPUs have been a livey topic for debate since the new Intel chips were released. Poorer quality TIM has been deemed the culprit. SPCR forum member graysky put this idea to the test by removing the integrated heat spreader from his i7-3770K to try a different, proven, high quality TIM.
