Radeon Pro V5300X 

radiator is handling cooling for a pair of high-end GPUs.

Temperatures and noise levels will be something to look for when we have hardware in hand.

The Xeon E5-2600 V3 lineup is going to be aimed at the HPC server and workstation market featuring 23 E5-2600 V3 SKUs including the flagship Xeon E5-2699 V3 which boasts 18 Cores, 36 threads, 45 MB of L3 cache and a high price of $4115 US.

Another technology update over at the workstation front is the introduction of C612 series chipset and DDR4 memory.

Powered by the high-performance x86 Steamroller architecture plus GCN graphic cores and backed by strong tools such as HSA, AMD TrueAudio and AMD Mantle, the new APU is going to be a interesting product in terms of both performance and value.

Compared to Intel Core i5-4670K that’s a definite leap in performance but when compared in x86 performance alone, AMD’s x86 enabled Steamroller cores would loose in the performance battle.

Clock speeds and stream processor count remain a mystery until announcement of the Curacao GPU architecture tonight.

We already took a look at the Curacao Pro ‘R7-270‘ graphics card when it leaked a few days back and noticed that it takes a single 6-Pin connector to power which hints at a maximum TDP of 150W.
