Antec recently announced their Phantom Power Supply. Intended for noise-sensitive PC users and specialty applications, the powerful 350 Watt unit has been completely designed from the ground up with silent, fanless operation in mind. It features ultra-high efficiency circuitry (85% efficient) that reduces power consumption and excess heat, and an aluminum casing that acts as a heatsink and eliminates the need for noisy moving parts.

Massive Incorporated launched a video-game advertising network. This allows advertisers to simultaneously reach an aggregated audience of gamers through real-time delivery of advertising across an entire network of top-selling video games, enabling brand marketers to tap into the nation's largest entertainment industry using a familiar model that is similar to purchasing television advertising. The Massive Network delivers ads seamlessly into the gaming environment with no impact on game play or performance, making in-game advertising painless and unobtrusive for gamers, publishers, and advertisers alike.

NEC announced a notebook PC and fuel cell unit. This model enables optimum control of the fuel cell in response to start up / shut down and loading of the computer, as well as fuel volume and density, through the adoption of an independent control system within the fuel cell. As a result, a PC, which operates with a fuel cell as its main power source, is realized. More info here.
NEC also announced the world's fastest vector supercomputer. The SX-8, with its dedicated CPUs, large-scale memory, and high data transfer rate between memory and CPUs, delivers much higher sustained performance than scalar supercomputers with a number of general-purpose CPUs. This is particularly effective in fields that require large-scale and ultra high-speed computing of massive data, such as meteorological forecasting, environmental simulations and automotive crash analysis. More info here.
OCZ announced PC2-4200 Enhanced Bandwidth DDR2 Platinum Edition memory. OCZ’s PC2-4200 Platinum Revision 2 possesses 3-2-2 timings, delivering significantly lower latencies than standard 533 MHz DDR2 modules. More info here.
Thermalright announced a giant new SocketA CPU cooler. With the release and tremendous success of our XP-120 and XP-90 cooling solutions for the Intel P4 and AMD K8 platforms, we were inundated with requests for a Socket "A" cooling solution that rivaled the XP-120 and XP-90. More info here.
Tul Corporation, who manufacture the PowerColor brand, released some info about forged PowerColor video cards. A few graphics cards, under the PowerColor brand name that contained conflicting ATI processors, were surprisingly found available in a retail store. With the fact that Tul has discontinued the PowerColor RADEON 9600 PRO 128MB in 400/600MHz, which announcement also being posted on Tul’s official website for four months by now, Tul suspects the occurrences of false usages and sales of PowerColor products by unknown parties. Their press release is in this 140KB .DOC, while Xbit have more info here.
