AMD's January Budget
Refresh: 5 New Processors from $74 and Up @ PC Perspective
While AMD is certainly behind Intel when it comes to the high end of
the market, as well as introducing 32 nm processors, they do have a
very strong position and following in the sub-$200 processor market.
AMD has released
five new processors from $74 to $179, which they
hope will help solidify their offerings in the face of Intel's i3
and i5 processors. URL:

NZXT Unveils IU01 Internal USB Expansion
System
PC Accessory installs easily, adds a
total of 8 USB ports, and provides additional power to front-panel
USBs for under $20
El
Monte, CA – December 10 2009 –
NZXT, a company built on realizing the dreams of gamers worldwide,
is proud to announce the IU01 Internal USB Expansion system.
The IU01 addresses an issue common to most gaming PCs that is a lack
of substantial power and expandability from the front-panel USBs.
The IU01 enhances control and boosts power for front-panel USB
devices by connecting them directly to the power supply as opposed
to the motherboard, ensuring that there’s always enough power to
control your accessories and peripherals. The IU01 also adds
six internal USB ports that are great for powering items that you
don’t need constant access too like a Bluetooth module or USB
wireless router allowing you to free up the external ports for
additional accessories.
“We strive to make products that provide
enthusiasts options for enhanced expansion and control” said Johnny
Hou, Chief Designer at NZXT. “Motherboards typically feature
only 2 internal USB ports which tend to be occupied by a media card
reader and the case’s USB cable. The IU01 provides a total of
8 additional USB ports expanding the users’ multimedia connectivity
and ensures peripherals have sufficient power with the direct
connection to the PSU.”
The IU01 is available now at an MSRP of
$19.99. For more information on the NZXT IU01 visit
