Computex 2008: Sapphire
Sapphire also has a suite at the Hyatt hotel. They are showing off the usual ATI graphic cards. You will not see any upcoming models at their suite, as these cards have not yet officially been released. Instead the company is showing off two new areas of business. The first are power supplies. These will be aimed at the mainstream and can handle 625W. The 14 cm fan has either red or white LEDs and the PSU is FireMV and FireGL certified. The second new offering are displays. The first is a 3D capable monitor. which simply has two layers to create the effect with the help of specific "sunglasses". The unit on is 22 inches large, can be used with both ATI and NVIDIA cards and will cost around 600 US Dollars. Another 56 inch display with a massive resolution, intended for industrial and medical applications can also be viewed. It features "quad HD" resolution and will sell in a bundle with FireGL cards.

I hope there is an Asus Bit coming soon though! I also want to know what this big nVidia secret was.

But enough OT: Mr. Moderator may not like it ... and we can debate this further in the "Computex 2008: Asus" thread ...
I would like to see one work with Sli or CF.
OT: I'm really liking the idea of that "quad HD" screen. I can't wait until they move up in res as I'm not buying a 30" screen untill it's higher than 2560x1600. Roll on 3840x2400 res screens :eek: :cool:!
"Freaking awesome, man!" (sic).
Now I can really make my Excel spreadsheets complicated!
Seriously: its a bit big. I would rather a QUAD HD TFT to be 30", and just make the pixel density higher. I'm still waiting for a TFT about the same size as A4 (letter) that can actually display a PDF and BE READABLE without zoom.
i want that thing sooo bad!
seriously this has got to be the nicest monitor ive seen in a while!
Nice updates. Interesting to see how their PSUs will work. Seems like everyone is jumping on that bandwagon.
I have quite a bit more to post ;) but Computex is going for another 2 days ^^.
cheers
