I think we’re cheating a bit actually – day two’s videos were actually filmed on day one of Computex! But who would know unless I told you?!


Abit is well known for catering for the enthusiast crowd. In this video they show John a new completely silent motherboard cooling solution that will be built into their high end boards later this year. They also show off some digital photo frames with printing capabilities and other features that make them much more than just a shuffling photo album. At the beginning of the video there’s also an odd mention of a Warcraft 3 demo. Might have to ask John to blog about that.

Artic cooling have more cooling products for more hardware components than you can poke a stick at. In this video they show John the biggest CPU cooler I’ve ever seen – the upcoming Freezer Extreme.

Silverstone make all sorts of products and there’s two rather unique ones that John takes a look at in this video, plus two new case designs coming out later in the year. First off there is a prototype remote for a PC. Secondly, a hard drive enclosure that looks like a HTPC. It features a built in RAID controller and can house about ½ a dozen hard drives – try and fill that with videos and MP3s! Arctec also describe the design philosophy of their upcoming high-end ATX cases. Plus the Raven, a case that positions the motherboard with the I/O plate at the top instead of at the back!

Finally, John takes a look at a digital home security solution that enables you to answer your front door, even if you’re not home!

More videos tomorrow!
