The Core i7 brand refers to an upcoming range of Intel’s consumer 64-bit quad-core CPUs with the x86-64 instruction set, based on the Intel Nehalem microarchitecture. These chips will also feature simultaneous multithreading, which will allow the quad core chips to work on eight threads simultaneously. According to an Intel spokesperson, the Core i7 identifier applies to the initial family of processors, Bloomfield, due to be launched in Q4 2008. According to Intel representatives, the moniker Core i7 does not have a deeper meaning.
World’s First DC Inverter Type Micro Refrigeration Cooling System
ThermalTake introduced Xpressar – world’s first computer case with a DC inverter type micro refrigeration cooling system! According to ThermalTake, the Xpressar RCS100 case keeps your components 20°C cooler than a liquid cooling system.
The Xpressar RCS100 is a quite big supertower case, it measures 605 x 250 x 660mm and weighs 22.2kg. There’s support for micro ATX and ATX motherboards, seven 5.25″ devices, five 3.5″ devices and 10 expansion cards. The case is made out of 1.0mm SECC steel and features an aluminum front door, the design of the case looks a bit like the Xaser VI
and it has several nice features such as a removable motherboard tray, cable management, a sliding hood and an adjustable PSU bridge. Furthermore, the front also features a compartment with I/O ports, this includes 2x e-SATA, 4x USB 2.0, 1x FireWire IEEE 1394 and HD audio.
The most interesting thing about this case is the phase-change cooling system, the Xpressar features a micro vapor-compression refrigeration system, which is a method similar to the one used for air-conditioning. It has a compressor, condenser, expansion valve, evaporator and intelligent IC controller. The cooling system uses a circulating liquid refrigerant as the medium which absorbs and removes heat from the space to be cooled and subsequently rejects that heat elsewhere. The refrigeration cooling system is compatible with Intel LGA775 and LGA1366 (Nehalem) sockets and the compressor uses a max of 50W.
- Utilize micro compressor and refrigerant to cool PC, to maximize over-clocking limitation and performance.
- 20ºC cooler than liquid cooling System
- Equipped with intelligent IC controller to prevent condensation
- Thermal resistance can be <0.02 ºC/W under 100% loading.
- High performance micro compressor uses standard 12V power
- Small, low noise, high performance technology.

P45 Diamond / P45 Platinum / P45D3 Platinum / P7N Diamond (Only for one VGA card plug in 4th slot) / P7N2 Diamond (Only for one VGA card plug in 4th slot) / X48C Platinum (Only for one VGA card plug in 4th slot)
This ram cooler kit is fairly new on the market so it might be hard for you to find but I think you really should take a few minutes to find a seller that holds these as they can really give you a slight boost in your overclocking attempts. I don’t think I can tell you much more of this kit more than it does not make to much noise and it will help you. They were well packed and they feel like high quality ram coolers, we will give this our recommended award.

MythBusters ADAM SAVAGE AND JAMIE HYNEMAN
TV celebrities and scientists, Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage, world renowned for their work as hosts of the MythBusters television show, have built a one-of-a-kind, never-before-seen, awe-inspiring machine that demonstrated the difference between a GPU and CPU. What transpired included two robots, thousands of paint balls and the Mona Lisa herself. You’ve got to see it to believe it!
