The majority of contemporary drivers can’t imagine their routine movement without GPS-navigators. Those devices enable not only the trailing of the most suitable route, but also the estimation of the drive time with consideration of various conditions. GPS-navigator developers try to amaze the potential customers by ever advanced models with multifarious functions. Treelogic TL-7008BGF AV Glonass is considered to be more than a usual navigator. This is rather a multifunctional device with high-end processor and diverse multimedia options. Developers of this model tried to include all options necessary as for long-distance drives so for routine urban traffic.


First of all, Treelogic TL-7008BGF AV Glonass has an integrated Bluetooth module; it enables the connection of the navigator with the cellular phone. In its turn, such type of connection sets the platform for the possibility to use the navigator as the data set for Internet connection. Such connectivity allows automatic …

Gigabyte has just announced the release of two entry-level graphics cards (with 1 GB or 2 GB DDR3) based on Nvidia’s GeForce GT 710 adapter. The company’s elaboration boasts the implementation of Ultra Durable 2 design that combines top-quality hardware base, reliability and high performance. The card comprises an improved PCB with the best-in-class solid-state capacitors, transistors as well as ferrite chokes.



Despite low-profile orientation, Gigabyte GeForce GT 710 employs active cooling system. The latter consists of a small-sized heatsink and a fan. In terms of efficiency, the company decided to preserve etalon showings; hence, the GPU (GK208, Kepler architecture, 192 CUDA cores) operates at 954 MHz frequency. Yet, the models come equipped with an overclocked memory: 900 MHz/1800 MHz (base/dynamic) frequency.


The kit of external interfaces includes three video ports: D-Sub, DVI-D & HDMI. Moreover, the nominal delivery set contains OC Guru II software package. It …
