Clevo



We stopped by the Clevo booth to see their new lineup of products as we heard they also had a surprise Desktop Replacement unit on display.



The M575U is based on the Intel 945PM chipset with the obvious support for the Intel Core Duo/Solo processors along with a 17 inch wide screen display and a choice between the ATI Radeon Mobility X1600 or NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GTX graphics. The unit also includes a TV Tuner card, ExpressCard, Bluetooth, and Video Camera. A second hard drive can be installed in the system, and RAID 0 or 1 is supported in such a configuration.



The M590KE is the mother of all notebooks. The system features the AMD Turion 64 X2 CPU, NVIDIA nForce4 SLI chipset, NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GTX SLI, and a 19" wide screen display. If that's not enough, the system features 2.1 speakers (it has a built-in sub-woofer), TV Tuner, Bluetooth, and a Video Camera. We expect to see models based on this design in the next six weeks.



The L570W series is actually an LCD PC featuring the AMD Turion 64 CPU, VIA K8N800/VT8237chipsets, and a 17" WXGA display. It also includes a wireless keyboard and mouse with instant-on capability.

Closing Thoughts



While we have already covered a staggering number of products, we haven't even bothered talking about many of the prototypes on display. If you have never been to Computex, for every product displayed that actually sees retail availability there are probably several prototypes that will never be seen or heard from again. We've tried to confine our coverage to the items that we actually think will make it out onto the retail market. We will complete our coverage of Computex 2006 tomorrow, and we hope you've enjoyed this quick overview of some of the many technology products that are in development.

    It sure is nice to see the overwhelming transition to passive chipset cooling. My patients for noisy, stop-working-after-2-months chipset fans ran out along time ago:) It's going to be interesting to see how well the heat pipe solutions work compared to the old fans.

    I'd love to see the $60 ASRock 775Dual-VSTA benched with DDR and DDR2 before I drop $200+ on a "Conroe" overclocking board and another $160 - $260 on DDR2.

    Thanks in advance AT!

    It brings back memories from 1996 !!! best buy was filled with their ugly case and IBM's sliding door cases! lol

    I had figured they were long dead. If anything, maybe during that ten years they got their act together.

    Seeing so many small boards (micro ATX and so), for when some reviews of small mainboards (regarding compatibility, heat from chipset, performance, underclocking and overclocking)?

    Thanks

    Yup that would be nice, it has been a long time since I've seen a that kind of boards on the test lane.

    We have several AMD/Intel m-ATX boards coming up for review in July along with the Conroe m-ATX boards in August.

    Looks like you will help me decide my birthday present :D
    Thanks

    And by the way, could you please please please test onboard video graphic performance (in one or two cases only) with a single DIMM in dual channel boards? And maybe with a Sempron AM2 at 35W (256K cache would be great)?

    (Yes, I know I am greedy).

    Lots and lots of thanks

    On the second MSI page, the last motherboard has this comment:
    The K9VGM-V leads MSI's entry level products for AMD AM2 by combining the VIA K8M890 and VT8237R+ chipsets. Expect to see this board sell for under US $50 later this month.

    The motherboard in question is actually the PT890-Neo F for the Intel platform.

    Sorry about that, the file name was cross-linked in the database. It is corrected now.
