Gigabyte is planning to start the sales of its newest motherboard that entered G1.Sniper series. Codenamed G1.Sniper B5, the ATX model features 30.5x22.5 mm dimensions and is based on Intel B85 Express chipset. It is equipped with socket LGA1150, supporting latest Intel Haswell (Core line) CPUs. The layout and incorporated facilities prove the motherboard’s orientation on advanced gamers’ segment.
Gigabyte G1.Sniper B5 has been elaborated in compliance with a brand Gigabyte Ultra Durable 4 Plus design concept. The latter is called to elongate the lifespan of all the components and enhance their productivity by providing the utmost security measures. Hence, key components, including high-end solid-state capacitors, are protected from high temperatures, static voltage, humidity, and voltage fluctuations. This board takes use of Nichicon capacitors, which are targeted audio devices; they promote for a more immersive sounding and audio effects while on game.
The search for the needed information and work with various online data is currently facilitated due to the availability of various browsers. In the majority of cases, Internet users give preference to the most popular browsers, such as Opera, Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, IE, which proved to be multifunctional and user-friendly at the same time. This is a verity that cannot be argued, though IT market is full of alternative browsers which show good functional characteristics but are less-recognizable by the Internet community. Maxthon, which appeared in the market more than 10 years ago and is prognosticated to gain popularity in the nearest future, can be ascribed to such browsers.
General Peculiarities of Maxthon 3.0.
Maxthon developers intended to combine all efficient features from the most popular browsers and integrate them into their product. Moreover, some of the features were supposed to exceed those of the global browsers. Maxthon 3.0. browser is based on the …
Galax, the company created due to a merger of Galaxy and KFA2, entered the market with a couple of new graphics solutions: the GeForce GTX 970 HOF and the GeForce GTX980 HOF cards. Both greenhorns are intended for enthusiasts longing for the best overclocking potential. Thus, they offer dual BIOS support for safe modification of key parameters and a pair of advanced utilities: Hyper Boost and Voltage Tool.
Galax GeForce GTX 970 HOF and 980 HOF models are powered by Nvidia GM204 GPU (Maxwell generation) with a striking factory overclocking index. Therewith, GTX 970 HOF runs at 1216 MHz (nominal) and 1380 MHz (dynamic) frequencies instead of etalon 1051 MHz/1178 MHz ones. In its turn, GTX 980 HOF operates at 1304 MHz (nominal) and 1418 MHz (dynamic) frequencies instead of reference 1126 MHz/1216 MHz ones. Moreover, the manufacturer swears that this couple is able to overclock up to 1.5 GHz frequency on air cooling and up to 2.1 GHz frequency on liquid cooling.

Video card – a key component of the hardware base of stationary and mobile PC devices. She is responsible for converting the graphic data image and the image displayed on the monitor screen. Simply put, it allows us to enjoy high quality photos, videos, movies and gaming applications, as well as to work with complex graphical data, with screens of home PCs or laptops.
Of course, like other components of a PC system, without a "smart driver" driver set - this card is just a useless piece of iron. Driver for video card connect computer operating system with the hardware of the device and automatically configure it to work. Without them even the most powerful card will be considered by the system as a standard graphics adapter, and that means neither high productivity nor wealth of colors, no detail, no sharpness, alas, we can not see.
In the evolution of systems of graphic information output, the concept of "graphics" has been transformed. Now by this term we mean a device with a GPU (eng. GPU – graphicsprocessingunit) accelerator, whose responsibilities include not only the formation of a graphic image, but its treatment – for example, rendering graphics pipeline in hardware. Moreover, most modern adapters GPU often takes on some of the functions of the CPU (eng. CPU – centralprocessingunit), often computing, for solving non-graphical problems.
Due to its multitasking and multi-functional nature, the GPU is able to provide unprecedented productivity and performance in the most "demanding" games (if you download the correct driver for the graphics card), excellent colour reproduction and image acceleration video transmission in movies with high resolution and fine granularity of fragments in professional graphics applications.
But all this is possible only under the condition that the "brains" of the video card are updated regularly. Installing and updating drivers ensures that integrated graphics card will be able to effectively perform a wide range of unique features and, of course, to delight us with original visual effects.
