Plextor was showing a new prototype of an  TLC NAND flash memory based solid state disk. This SSD is expected to be launched in August. TLC flash memory is cheaper than the MLC NAND flash memory that is typically used for SSDs, but it has a lower longetivity. The new Plextor SSD uses 19nm TLC NAND from Toshiba in combination with a Marvell 88SS9189 controlller.

There are two more products before we'll be closing the CeBIT news items. MSI next to the G series Z77 GD65 Gaming also had the G series Z77 G45 and G43 on display. These again are similar to the original concept aside from an added Killer E2200 low-latency network interface and that Creative Sound Blaster Cinema audio. Have a peek after the break.

Check this out, this will be the Pulse Mech series from Cooler Master. The Headset, Keyboard and mouse shown are still in development and thus prototypes, the the idea was to design something completely different. I do not have the specs on me, but basicallt all gear is Aluminum plated at some point to create a set of pretty nice gear. Have a peek after the break.

Enermax presented a passively cooled 650W power supply at CeBIT. The unit is 80Plus Platinum certified and has 100% modular cabling, dynamic hybrid topology, and DC-to-DC switching. They where still showing prototypes though and availability won't be any sooner then perhaps Q3 of this year. Photo's after the break.

We've been able to catch the Cooler Master Eisberg series on Camera. Initially is should have been launched, then got delayed and then delayed some more. Do not confuse these with the Seidon series liquid coolers (which we'll review soon btw). The Eisberg series is still in development and will be an all-in-on kit liquid cooler ... with options. For example you can change tubing, fill coolant, maybe change the radiator. See it's more of a customizable series. The water-blocks will be huge though.

You probably will recognize the coolers, but Enermax is releasing Enermax ETS-T40 Pluto Edition CPU coolers. Now the cool thing really are the looks as they receive either a white or black thermal optimized coating. With today's colors in PC chassis being in the trend colors black and white, this could be a hit. Try to imaging an all black of white heatpipe cooler and how that would look in your PC? The white edition will get a bright white Appolish LED fan, the black edition a blue AppolishLED fan.

A company that just set foot on the grounds of the EU soil is Gamedias. They already are known quite well in the USA and Asian countries. The company is targeting you guys, gamers with product comparable to what Razer and Logitech offers. Gamdias will initially offer the Hades gaming mouse, the Zeus Gaming mouse and Zeus Mechanical keyboard. The hades mouse series will get profile based luminance with 2000 DPI with selectable polling rates of 125 / 250 / 500 and 1000 Hz. It has a customizable grip with side panels you can switch out alongside a weight system. Armed with strong software you can assign many profiles and macro's. The Zeus series  then ...

Though not yet ready for public release, Enermax is working on Liquid cooling based setups. The  T1209 is an All-In-One Liquid Cooler kit, not Asetek based for a change. The initial models will have a 120mm fan and radiator design with built on APS function so that you can select FAN RPM in three steps depending on your performance versus noise requirements. Internally the base plate  has a quad shunt channel for optimal Heat dissipation.

MSI had a rather unusual card on display at CeBIT. The MSI N660Ti PE Gaming Edition is obviously an all beefed up GeForce GTX 660 Ti. Talking to MSI, they are not yet sure if the card will be released. They are checking with media and customers about this. If released the card will get that red striping to accompany the G series motherboards that we showed you earlier on. This MSI N660Ti PE Gaming Edition would be very similar to the HAWK series actually, with triple overvoltage options, an 8 phase power design and being the OC PE edition it would get a factory clock frequency of 1019 MHz n the baseclock core.

Actually Cooler Master had a lot of gooed to show this year at CeBIT. Amongst all the products they will be offering an all new Gold Certified line of V series PSUs. The initial models will be V700, V850 and V1000 with respective wattages. With a gold label these supplies are certified by the 80PLUS organization to deliver a 90% energy efficiency at 50% load and still 87% efficiency when your PC idles.

At the Cooler Master meeting room we spotted some of the new cooling offering from Cooler master. Two new models will be introduced, the first is the vapor chamber / 4 heatpipe based TPC 612, followed by the new huge, big and likely aimed at the USA market V8 GTS which is 15x15x16 CM in size and weighing a full KG. Cooler Master will also introduce a new series of fans called the JetFlo 120 available with none/red and blue LEDs.

A handful of motherboard manufacturers have been showing Haswell Motherboards at CeBIT. We took a couple of photo's. These motherboards are intended for Haswell processors which are to be released later this year. Haswell has 1150 pins which means it requires a new motherboard, the chipsets as well will see a die-shrink from 65nm towards 32nm. The chipset will support 14 USB ports of which 6 are USB 3.0, more after the break.

Over at CeBIT OCZ is showing the OCZ Vector PCIe, the whole whopping 960 GB unit actually. The PCIe x4 (gen 2) slot based storage unit will be based on two controllers and will become available in 240, 480 and 960 GB versions. It's read/write performance is stated to b deliver 1000 MB/sec and random IO perf wise you are looking at a unit that can manage 140,000 IOPS. Photo's and info after the break.

I was at CeBIT in Germany today and did my usual booth tour. CeBIT this year is really bad BTW. Very few vendors, mostly meeting rooms with a lot of lacking companies. Gigabyte, ASUS they are all not present. None the less, MSI will soon launch their 'g; Gaming series motherboards. They start off with an Intel Z77 motherboard that will get the latest Killer E2200 chip to accelerate and prioritize their gaming traffic, Sound Blaster 7.1 Cinema audio solution, Military class III component selection and another trick or two. Have a peek after the break for some photo's.
