Raijintek Themis EVO CPU Cooler Review
Last week we brought you a review of the Pallas low-profile CPU cooler from a new company called Raijintek. We put it through our torture test and we were actually surprised at how well the little cooler did. With plenty of clearance, a beautiful finish, a quiet fan and an affordable price, the Pallas passed with flying colors and earned itself the Editor’s Choice award. Today we have the next installment in our series Raijintek CPU cooler reviews: the Themis Evo.
Raijintek Pallas CPU Cooler Review
Competition is one of the cornerstones of innovation, in the tech world and in many other areas. When we have several different companies marketing products to us that serve the same function, they will each strive to bring us, the consumer, something better than their competition. Price, performance, appearance - all of those are parts of the equation for value. Some companies offer what is perceived to be (and very often is) absolute top-of-the-line quality at a premium price. Others will present their product from the cost-to-performance ratio. Still others will rely on aesthetics to bring in the consumer. All are different and valid approaches to the marketplace, and if you’re in that market long enough you’ll likely eventually start to see a trend in certain brands, identifying which ones fit into which category.
New Titan from GeForce has arrived
The new graphics card beside the additional letters in its name delivers improved performance compared to the original model, and enough memory to perform any professional or hobby task. From Nvidia said that their new graphics card was developed in order to offer everything you need for gaming future that will include a 5K resolution on multi-display systems.
Intel's Quark family expanding with 2 new SoCs

TSMC to manufacture Apple's A8 chips instead of Samsung
Apple's new A8 processor will be manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, according to sources in Taiwanese TechNews. Samsung would so be left out of orders for the production of processors for Apple.
HTPC and SFF enthusiasts will have their own Bay Trail "motherboard" from MSI
The new motherboard from MSI codenamed J1800I comes with an Intel Celeron J1800 SoC, and with Intel HD graphics. Despite being embedded, the SoC can clock as fast as 2.4 GHz, TDP is only 10W, so for the cooling is sufficient passive aluminum heatsink what we have so far seen only on the chipset. To ensure stable operation, MSI used Military Class 4 components.
Incredibly fast graphene chips from IBM
IBM's Research Laboratory achieved a great progress in the development of graphene microchip. Their engineers have managed to create an integrated chip of graphene instead of silicon, which shows several times better performance than all previous graphene chips. This big jump occurred because of the discovery of methods of depositing graphene on a substrate, which is stacked in a way that integrated circuits are not damaged, which was not possible until now.
64 bit Bay Trail for mobile devices
Tablets based on Android with 64-bit Atom processors should arrive on the market in the next quarter, according to Intel's CEO Brian Krzanich at a meeting with analysts. Intel in November demonstrated the first prototype tablet with Android, which was powered by a 64-bit Atom. Of course, even though the 64-bit devices are at the door, it is worth noting that most of the applications at this time are not optimized for the new processors.
Intel Broadwell will come with 18 cores

Is the leaked Haswell-E image a fake? We think so
The internet is a blaze with articles about what is supposed to be a picture of a Haswell-E engineering sample CPU. The image popped up over at VR-Zone and got everyone all excited about news of the next top-end CP from Intel. We were interested and decided to take a look at this image ourselves. What we saw did not impress us at all and immediately had us wondering if it was a fake.
