Alphacool Releases Core XPX/Eisbaer Metal Backplate for Its CPU Coolers
Alphacool’s product range has been expanded with a Core XPX/Eisbaer metal backplate designed for use with all XPX, Eisbaer Solo, Eisbaer Pro, and Eisbaer LT CPU coolers. It is made of steel and is compatible with Intel LGA 115X, 1200 and 1700 sockets.
It is said to significantly improve cooling over previous plastic back panels. This is due to the fact that the steel fixes the cooler more rigidly and provides more clamping force. According to the manufacturer, the increase in cooling efficiency is most noticeable for Intel LGA 1700 processors. To anyone who can confirm the purchase of an XPX, Eisbaer Solo, Eisbaer Pro or Eisbaer LT processor cooler or water block (both as separate products and as part of an LSS) , Alphacool sends the Core XPX/Eisbaer metal backplate free of charge.

A “completely silent” 1300W power supply. Cooler Master showed two new products, but only the youngest received a passive CO

Cooler Master brought power supplies to Computex that they claim are absolutely silent.
The younger model with a power of 750 W is really silent, because it simply does not have a fan. By the way, this is the company’s most powerful power supply with passive cooling.
There is also a 1300W PSU. It has a fan, but Cooler Master also calls it completely silent.
The secret to successfully cooling such powerful PSUs without too much noise lies in the use of an evaporation chamber. There are no other details yet, as well as no pricing data.

Intel Meteor Lake processors will not be released until the end of the year, but a couple can be bought now

Intel just showed the Meteor Lake processor in operation for the first time today, and today a copy of such a processor appeared on eBay.
The OneClickWarehouse seller, according to the platform, has sold more than 221,000 lots and has a rating of 99.6%, so there is no particular doubt that this is not a fake.
The seller says that this is a processor with six large cores, eight small ones and a GT2 iGPU. The photos, unfortunately, for some reason are of very poor quality, but still one of them shows that the CPU consists of chiplets, which Intel calls tiles.
The seller also indicates that he has two such processors, but nothing is said about their condition. However, these are mobile CPUs that will enter the market only at the end of the year, so there is not much difference anyway. The seller is asking $1,000 for the lot.

So that no more GeForce RTX 4090s catch fire. MSI simply and elegantly solved the problem of the 12VHPWR power connector

MSI seems to have solved the problem with the 12VHPWR connector. It was enough just to paint it.
The company did not show at Computex the most simple and equally effective solution. It lies in the fact that a certain part of the connector is painted yellow.
When the connector is connected correctly, the yellow part is completely hidden in the case, which is an excellent indicator that the connector is inserted correctly. If, after connecting, the user sees yellow plastic, then he will connect the connector incorrectly.
The idea of MSI is very easy to implement by any manufacturer, so perhaps in the near future this coloring may become a standard. Of course, recently there has not been a single case of fire on the RTX 4090 or any other Nvidia video card, or it simply has not been reported, but in such a situation it will not be superfluous to play it safe.
