Excellent cooling for industrial applications! With the ES Orbiter 360 TS, Alphacool introduces a compact external cooling system. The powerful ES Orbiter is equipped with two NexXxoS Full Copper radiators of the HPE variant. The increased number of water channels and copper fins allows more coolant to flow through the radiator for significantly increased cooling performance. The radiators are optimally ventilated by the three built-in Alphacool Core 120 mm fans. Thus, a high waste heat of up to 1500 watts can be effectively dissipated.



The compact design of the Orbiter 360 TS is kept simple. It not only has an illuminated, colored temperature display, but also two recessed handles that allow for easy lifting or transportation. On the fill level indicator on the front, it is possible to see how much coolant is in the cooling system. The fill port and the adjacent vent valve on the top make it easy to top up the liquid when needed.

(PR) Intel Contributes AI Acceleration to PyTorch 2.0
In the release of Python 2.0, contributions from Intel using Intel Extension for PyTorch, oneAPI Deep Neural Network Library (oneDNN) and additional support for Intel CPUs enable developers to optimize inference and training performance for artificial intelligence (AI).



As part of the PyTorch 2.0 compilation stack, the TorchInductor CPU backend optimization by Intel Extension for PyTorch and PyTorch ATen CPU achieved up to 1.7 times faster FP32 inference performance when benchmarked with TorchBench, HuggingFace and timm. This update brings notable performance improvements to graph compilation over the PyTorch eager mode.

(PR) Angelbird's New Memory Card Case Offers Security that Lasts
Angelbird Technologies GmbH announces the release of Media Tank, a new memory card case designed to offer hard-shell protection for up to four memory cards. Media Tank is available for different types of card format: Media Tank SD, Media Tank CFast, and Media Tank CFexpress Type B. Media Tank from Angelbird takes protection and design to new levels—raising the bar on quality for professional memory cards cases. Memory cards are considered necessary gear for photographers and filmmakers, not only for their price value, but also for the content they hold. Angelbird designed Media Tank to be slim and lightweight while also protective and secure inside and out.



The hard-aluminium case features a durability-tested Lock-Solid locking mechanism and double ring loops for pad locks or carabiners. Inside is designed to securely hold up to four SD, CFast, or CFexpress cards. Precision-cut foam inserts with generous finger grooves that maintain just the right amount of tension—balancing easy card access with a firm and secure grip to keep cards in place.

(PR) ASUS W790 Workstation Motherboards Support ECC DDR5 RAM at DDR5-6800 Speeds
ASUS today announced that ASUS W790 workstation motherboards support ECC R-DIMM DDR5 RAM at up to 6800 MHz, unleashing class-leading overclocking capability to unlock even more performance potential. ASUS W790 workstation motherboards feature the memory capability of up to 2 TB RDIMM DDR5 memory to power the next generation of compute-intensive professional workloads. In addition, ASUS have been working with market-leading memory partners including G.SKILL, Kingston, and V-Color to establish multiple memory validations and to widely support 8-channel and quad-channel memory architectures. The Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE now supports up to 128 GB (8x16 GB) at 6800 MT/s, and the Pro WS W790-ACE supports up to 64 GB (4x16 GB) of DDR5 RAM at 6800 MT/s. This painstakingly cultivated collection of device validations helps ensure that an ASUS W790 workstation build supports a wide variety of scenarios.



Choosing the right CPU cooler for a workstation build can also be a challenge, because CPU sockets and form factors are different from those used in desktops. Therefore, ASUS has partnered with cooling experts including Enermax, EK and Noctua to offer air and liquid coolers for the LGA4677 socket used by the latest Intel Xeon workstation processors. These solutions are designed to offer optimal heat transfer and heat dissipation capacity through the cooler base and then to coolant tubes, heat pipes and radiator fins.
