For an international trade show, Computex 2013, which took place in Taipei, Taiwan between June 4 and 8, didn't really bring about the release of that many new computers. Slowly, however, the list of products grows.
Ultrabooks were a surprise all on their own, as few were actually released at the time. Most we... |

When we say that a motherboard supports even the most absurd of overclocking plans, we mean to say that the platform has the technology and components to make records possible, not that it will cope with the strain. Overclockers will still have to put a lot of effort into cooling.
Micro-Star International has offic... |

Intel and Advanced Micro Devices seem to be going back and forth as far as their stance in regard to overclocking. Initially, they were against it, then they gave in to public pressure and started encouraging it, and now they are, or at least Intel is, moving back towards the first position.
While Haswell CPU can de... |

People may or may not have expected it, but Intel's plans for the rest of the year, as well as 2014, have been revealed.
The folks at CPU World have discovered some slides. Three slides to be precise, which I have included in the gallery below.
They reveal that a new high-end Haswell CPU will debut in Q3, th... |

Gravity has long been the bane of all breakable objects, and consumer electronics and PCs are more breakable than other things, which means that any measures meant to reduce the risk of damage are welcome. Usually. We say “usually” because anything that makes a, in this case, laptop more rugged usually ... |

The market for gaming notebooks might be the only segment of the laptop industry that hasn't noticeably declined over the past years, since they aren't the type that can just be replaced by tablets.
Yet, the companies that make gaming mobile personal computers continue to make new ones and improve their e... |

The roadmap slide that revealed to us the ETA for the Broadwell Intel micro-architecture also held a piece of information that, in comparison, was more easily overlooked.
And by that I mean that the slide mentioned a refresh planned for the Haswell micro-architecture.
Apparently, Intel knows that asking its prosp... |

Half a year into upgrading and completely redesigning its iMac lineup, Apple is expected to upgrade the all-in-one computer yet again, this time with Intel’s Haswell platform.
In what sounds like an unlikely scenario for WWDC 2013, analyst Ming Chi-Kuo with KGI Securities reports in a research note, “App... |

In addition to the Haswell processors that Intel has launched at Computex 2013, the company has also revealed some information about the ones that will come out during the third quarter of the year. Sure, there was some information about the mobile lineup, but details were conspicuous in their scarcity, for a time.... |

The NUC, short for Next Unit of Computing, was first invented as a means for Intel to infiltrate the small form factor PC industry. It's basically the only actual PC that Intel sells under its own brand.
Sales haven't exactly been spectacular, but they must have been at least acceptable if Intel continues ... |

Anyone thinking that the Vaio Duo 13 sliding laptop/tablet is Sony's only product on show in Taipei, Taiwan, has been grossly misinformed. There was no way the company wouldn't fill its booth to the brim with things.

Gaming PCs needn't be too huge, something that Dell fully agrees with. If it didn't, it wouldn't make things like the X51 mini PC.
The device sells under the Alienware gaming brand, just like the ASUS Maximus VI Formula motherboard ships under the ROG brand.
X51 combines the might of a quad-core In... |

Having already covered the collection of fourth-generation desktop processing units from Intel, we are left with the mobile lineup. Intel hasn't provided a table of the raw specs like it has for the others, but that might just be because it has decided to wait until tomorrow (June 4, 2013).
That is, after all,... |

Computex 2013 hasn't started yet, since it will take place in Taipei, Taiwan between tomorrow (June 4) and Saturday (June 8). Things have already started moving though, and Intel is right there at the front of the convoy.

As the time nears for the introduction of Intel's fourth-generation Core series of central processing units, the world is watching for it closely.
So closely that even the smallest rumor or leak about the Haswell Core i3, Core i5 and Core i7 CPUs is reported on.

We really have to wonder if it was just a lie or a false report when Intel said it would stop making motherboards, back in January. The company certainly didn't stop announcing them, or leaking information about them, in the time since. Case in point, the company has prepared the DZ87KLT-75K "Kinsley," a mainb... |

Since Z87-powered Haswell motherboards, and B85 ones for that matter, are coming out, or at least getting leaked, it's obvious that Micro-Star International has a few just outside the door too.

We've already seen Mini-ITX Z87 and top-tier Z87 ATX motherboards from Gigabyte, but the company isn't done yet. In anticipation of next week's release of Intel Haswell CPUs, it has introduced some low-cost LGA 1150 mainboards too.
The names of the new platforms are B85M-D3H, the Z87-D3HP, and the Z8... |

While desktop owners have to contend with potentially incompatible PSUs, since Haswell CPUs are more efficient than most power supplies can cope with, the laptop industry can rejoice.

It is true that Intel won't officially introduce the Haswell series of central processing units, the fourth generation Core series, before Computex Taipei, which will take place between June 4 and 8.

After Fractal Design, Enermax and SeaSonic, it really isn't a shock to see that another maker of power supply units has posted a list of Haswell-compatible PSUs.

One would think that the high-end chipset meant to support Intel's Haswell CPUs would only be found on ATX motherboards and larger, and maybe the occasional micro-ATX, but this is not the case.

Intel's next-generation central processing units (fourth generation, Haswell) will be the most efficient in the company's lineup, ever. This, however, has raised some problems.

Intel doesn't intend to release the Haswell CPU line before Computex 2013 (June 4-8), but that hasn't stopped the Core i7-4770K from being reviewed in China, or the desktop series from already selling.

A while ago, it came to light that Intel's Haswell central processing units had a certain trait that made them partially incompatible with most power supplies of today. See more on that here.

Intel hasn't formally introduced its Haswell collection of central processing units, and doesn't plan to do it until next month, June 2013. Yet this was not enough to prevent the chips from selling early.

Back in March, we found out about a benchmark involving Intel's upcoming Core i7-4770K central processing units, and it wasn't altogether encouraging, so we decided to wait for a second opinion.

All central processing unit series have a so-called flagship CPU, and for the Haswell collection, that highest-end chip is called Core i7-4770K.
Logically, I'd expect the CPU to have to be launched before any overclocking records are set.
Then again, this isn't the first time a chip gets put through its p... |

Intel has revealed something really important about Haswell CPUs, something that makes them incompatible with the majority of PSUs on the market. Sure, the chips will work, but PCs will become unstable as soon as the CPUs go in C6 or C7 low-power state. The matter is explored at length here. Since it isn't eas... |
