High quality sound effect, to share music with friends!
Portable music players, such as MP3, MP4, iPod, cell phones, and iPhone, make it easy for you to enjoy music on the go. Unfortunately the built-in speakers limit the enjoyment to one to maybe two users huddled around it! When you want to share music with a group of friends, there’s nothing you can do. With the Boom Boom Speaker on hand or in the pocket, this difficulty vanishes. As for the sound quality, the Boom Boom Speaker contains four integrated highly-sensitive speakers and an amplifier that provides impressive sound and volume. Just enjoy the music you like and share it with friends wherever and whenever the mood strikes you!

“Light, Slim, and Clear” for business
In most cases, precise video and audio effects make a commercial proposal successful. However, this is only effective if the sound remains free of distortion and maintains an appropriately high volume level. Video conferencing could further complicate things. Thus, a clear sound is essential for these and other related events. The Boom Boom Speaker provides rich and clear sound for your music, movies, and teleconference calls. It will be your best partner in business.

Slim drivers tech application, and outstanding sound with slim size

Sharkoon expands on their PC-housings portfolio: The ATX Case Sharkoon Bandit brings together comfortable installation options, an elaborate airflow concept, integrated card reader and as a special feature, a practical docking station for 2.5 and 3.5 inch SATA hard drives.

Thus, Sharkoon has integrated for the first time their highly-demanded external QuickPort docking station into a housing. SATA hard drives of both sizes can be easily plugged into the PC without any complicated assembly. Another distinctive feature on the top of the housing is the blue illuminating 180mm LED fan, which blows warm air out of the housing. Also, easily accessible on the housing surface are Power and Reset switches, audio connections, a power and hard drive LED, an eSATA and two USB ports. A card reader is installed in the highest front panel which supports SD, SDHC, MS, as well as CF I formats and contains an additional USB port.

The Sharkoon Bandit is constructed out of sturdy SECC-steel with a black finish on both the inside and outside. Behind the plastic front faceplates, which are constructed in a mesh design for optimum air intake, the housing offers space for five optical drives and three hard drives. The latter sits nicely cooled due to the preinstalled 120mm LED front fan situated in a removable hard drive cage. The optical drives can be installed tool-free by their practical quick-locking mechanisms, the CPU with the handy fitting aperture allows construction without the cumbersome task of dismounting the motherboard and the hidden cable management system routed between the motherboard bracket and the side panels ensures an uninhibited air circulation throughout the housing.

For those whom the two preinstalled fans on the top and front are not enough will find additional installation options for two 140mm or 120mm fans on the side panel and a 120mm or 80mm fan on the backside. The housing measures 200mm x 485mm x 485mm (W x H x L), the empty weight averages 6.6 kg. Sharkoon provides in shipping extensive installation accessories including three mounting frames for internal 3.5 inch drives. A detailed instruction manual is available and ready for download at www.sharkoon.com.

Accelero Xtreme Pro
(Pfäffikon/Switzerland, August 13 2010) ARCTIC is launching a new VGA cooler and case fan today – Accelero XTREME Plus and ARCTIC F TC Fan (Temperature Control Fan). The Accelero XTREME Plus is a multi-compatible cooler for high-end VGA boards. While the Accelero XTREME series has gained notable recognition in the past, the engineering team in ARCTIC continues to improve and creates a VGA cooler that is compatible with various high-end graphic cards. The F TC fan is a case fan that signals appropriate fan speed to provide optimal air ventilation inside a PC case.

Promising Results in the Accelero XTREME Series
While high-end VGA stock coolers are usually noisy and inefficient, ARCTIC develops the Accelero XTREME Plus, a much more effective inaudible cooling solution, for users to replace those stock coolers. The maximum cooling capacity of the Accelero XTREME Plus is 250W, which is an unmatched cooling performance in this multi-compatible VGA cooler. Since the fan models in the Accelero XTREME series have proven to be inaudible and effective, the Accelero XTREME Plus adopts a similar design – three ultra-quiet 92mm PWM fans with low noise impeller, five heat pipes and 84 fins for efficient heat dissipation. This three-fan cooler runs from 900-2000 RPM to generate enough airflow to dissipate heat quickly from the GPU.

The cooling performance and noise level in the Accelero series offers promising results. When the Accelero XTREME Plus is used with ATI Radeon HD 5870 graphic card, the noise level is 0.5 sone with temperature maintaining at 41°C at 2000 RPM. However, when the stock cooler runs at the same speed, it is 3.5 sone with temperature at 77°C. With this comparison, it is evident that Accelero XTREME Plus manages to reduce temperature effectively at minimum noise level. The patented fan holder on this cooler also plays a prominent role in reducing noise to a minimum level as it eliminates the vibrating sound of the fan with the frame. ARCTIC MX-4, the new thermal
compound from ARCTIC, has been pre-applied onto the copper plate to provide superior thermal conductivity.

An Extension of Accelero XTREME Series
Another key feature in the Accelero XREME Plus is its interchangeable mounting plate for vast compatibility for new or yet to be released graphic cards. Along with the Accelero XTREME Plus, users need to purchase and install a set of accessories with their cooler, including a mounting frame, thermal glue, heatsinks for RAM coolers, and heatsinks for voltage regulators.

Rather than having several VGA coolers designated for specific graphic cards, ARCTIC develops this generic model of cooler and various accessory sets to make the cooler compatible with different VGA boards. As new VGA cards are released, ARCTIC will design and release new fittings; hence this makes the Accelero XTREME Plus very versatile for overclockers to upgrade their computers frequently. This also helps overclockers to provide quick and effective cooling solution for new graphic boards.

With the proven engineering design in Accelero XTREME Plus along with its new multi-compatibility with many VGA boards, overclocking can be maximized. The Accelero XTREME Plus can for sure enhance overclocking performance and also extend service life of VGA board as well.
The Accelero XTREME Plus comes with a 2 year limited warranty. It will be available in early September of 2010. The MSRP is US$65.95 / 54.95€, excl.VAT.

F TC Fan
The new ARCTIC F TC Fan features a temperature sensor cable to detect internal temperature and regulate fan speed automatically. The relationship between the detected temperature and fan speed is positively correlated – the warmer the temperature, the faster the fan speed would turn. Hence, with a fan controller on board, users can simply plug-and-use without adjusting BIOS system since the fan is able to run by itself. With a 40cm long intelligent sensor probe, it is very flexible for users to attach it to anywhere that can accurately detect the internal case temperature. The ARCTIC F TC Fan is connected with a three-pin connector and is available in three standard sizes: 80mm, 92mm and 120mm. Its mounting frame is 25mm thick with screw holes on both sides, which can be mounted in both ways for blowing or extracting air in the computer case. This offers great flexibility for users to install it as an intake or outtake fan.

The Blades
The ARCTIC F TC Fan is equipped with nine blades to efficiently create higher airflow inside a computer case. This refined “ninja-knife” design improves laminar air flow while reducing noise level at the same time. The nine-blade fans have proven to operate at 20% higher efficiency than regular seven-blade ones as it can increase airflow rate and remain nearly inaudible at most times. Since the ARCTIC F TC Fan incorporates the technology of sensor cable and a two-way mountable frame, it is a flexible and ultimate cooling solution with efficient cooling performance at a minimum noise level. The ARCTIC F TC Fan can certainly improve computer case ventilation system entirely and effectively.

The ARCTIC F TC Fan comes with a 6 year limited warranty. It is available in the market already. The MSRP for 80mm is US$6.95 /4.85€, for 92mm is US$7.45 / 5.15€, and 120mm is US$8.95 /6.20€, excl.VAT.
