ASUS W90: The Fastest Notebook on the Planet with World Record Broken at 20284 3DMarks
Experience the power of the world’s best performance notebook-the ASUS W90, which has succeeded in breaking the world record in notebook overclocking. With the help of a world-renowned professional overclocker, the ASUS W90 has proven to be a notebook with power comparable to that of a desktop PC by achieving a massive 3DMark 06 score of 20284-outperforming its closest rival, a notebook equipped with an Intel® CoreTM 2 Quad processor. Powered by an Intel® X38 chipset and an Intel® CoreTM 2 Duo processor, together with the unique ASUS Turbo Gear function, the W90 lets users enjoy system performance boosts of up to 25%*. With a 3 x SO-DIMM mainboard design and a maximum RAM capacity of 6GB of DDR2-800 memory, the W90 is ideally designed for multitasking and multimedia performance.
Dual hard disk drives provide up to one terabyte of storage capacity, allowing users to do more, as well as store more documents or multimedia. The W90 is also now available with more advanced specifications such as the Intel® Quad CoreTM Q9000 CPU (T9550 / P8700) and Windows Vista 64 bit Ultimate. It also delivers astounding multimedia performance, thanks largely to a seamless Full HD1080p, 18.4″ widescreen display with a 16:9 golden aspect ratio ultra bright LCD display. The W90 can also be equipped with either a dual graphics ATI Mobility RadeonTM HD 4870, ATI® Mobility RadeonTM HD3850 X2 or the NVIDIA® GeForceTM 9800M GS for truly stunning visuals.
Marine Cool Motherboard: Revolutionary Design and Advanced Innovations to Deliver Ultimate Stability and Durability
The ASUS Marine Cool motherboard is a conceptual motherboard that caters to the most demanding of usage environments; and combines a unique design with advanced thermal innovations in the use of ceramics and metals. On the front of the motherboard, a metal heat-pipe module provides exceptional heat transference and dissipation for core components. Located on the back of the motherboard and set flush with the PCB, the Ceramic Backplate makes full use of a revolutionary micro-porous ceramic technology to provide a larger surface area-helping to effectively convey heat from the motherboard PCB and deliver highly effective heat dissipation. Together, this revolutionary thermal design helps improve thermal efficiency by up to 2 times! Additionally, this motherboard features Onboard UPS-a built-in polymer battery that provides an extra backup power supply that activates when there is a power failure-averting damage caused during unexpected blackouts. Furthermore, the server-standard Failover Memory design utilizes built-in memory to help sustain system boot-up. When the PC is switched on, Failover Memory guarantees that the system will boot, regardless of incompatible or faulty memory.
M4A78-HTPC Series Motherboards: The Fun Home Theater Center
The ASUS M4A78-HTPC Series of motherboards is the ideal platform for users to build a full-fledged home theater PC. It features several innovative technologies which provide users with a whole new realm of multimedia enjoyment. With Perfect Pitch Hi-Fi, a high-quality integrated preamplifier chip increases the voltage of weak audio signals and enlarges the dynamic audio frequency-delivering richer details and clearer sounds. In addition, gold-plated RCA stereo audio connectors that are fully compatible with amplifiers without requiring extra connectors make it easy to link the PC to home theater speakers. The ASUS Media Gate is a user-friendly interface that allows users to use the bundled remote controller to easily start media applications with one touch. Furthermore, the ASUS Silent Mode effectively reduces fan speed and lowers fan noise to deliver a quiet environment for maximum movie watching and music listening enjoyment.
Formula Fansink Series Graphics Cards: Built for Ultimate Performance
The Formula Fansink Series’ F1 style and design deliver a message to users-that they are graphics cards bred for ultimate performance. The streamline shaped cover enables faster and more centralized airflow to be sucked into the system for better thermal efficiency. The Formula Fansink phases in a Micro Surface Treatment technology that encompasses a high-density and anti-oxidizing aluminum-alloy fin module that makes up the flank portions of the graphics card. Each fin module is comprised of hemispherical cavities that maximize the surface area exposed to the air for the best heat dissipation-allowing this series of graphics cards to deliver outstanding cooling. Furthermore, the dust proof fan guarantees astounding heat dissipation efficiency and helps extend the lifespan of the cards; while up to five powerful heat pipes are arranged to enable the average temperature to enhance heat transfer effects.
TA-U Series Aluminum Chassis: Exquisitely Handcrafted Quality Design for Extreme Protection and Durability
Targeting users who require a chassis that provides excellent functionality as well as a trendy aesthetic design, the ASUS VENTO TA-U Series chassis is built with a unique frame that provides users with a strong and sturdy design that is surprisingly lightweight. With support for future cooling solutions, as well as superb ventilation options, this stylish chassis offers the best platform to deliver the best computing experience.
TA-M Series Chassis: Maximum Thermal Performance and User-Friendly Setup with a Stylish Look
The TA-M Series chassis provides practical functionality as well as a modern and stylish look. This chassis series utilizes a well-built yet aesthetically pleasing design that incorporates a user-friendly screw-less design for easy installation, and a multi-way ventilation system for maximizing thermal efficiency, especially for the CPU and graphics cards.
My Cinema-EHD2-100 and P7131Hybrid, My Cinema-U3100Mini
