Multitouch Wind Top AE2220 All-in-One from MSI Now Shipping

Posted by admin on November 19th, 2009

MSI on Wednesday announced it has begun shipping its new Wind Top AE2220 all-in-one desktop PC. The AE2220 takes its place as MSI’s flagship all-in-one and expands the company’s fast growing Wind Top series.

“The MSI Wind Top is an awesome all-purpose family PC. Share photos, edit videos, play games, watch HD video — our Ion graphics processor means you can have it all,” said Drew Henry, general manger for Ion and GeForce products at Nvidia.

In addition to the Ion platform, the AE2220 boasts an Intel Core 2 Duo T6600 processor clocked at 2.2GHz (Pentium dual-core T4300 also available), a 21.5-inch multitouch display, 4GB of DDR2-800 memory, a 500GB hard drive, optional Blu-ray player, 1.3MP webcam, built-in 6-in-1 card reader, 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi, two mini-PCI-E expansion slots, IR receiver, and Windows 7 Home Premium.

The new all-in-one is still a no-show at most retailers, though Amazon still has it listed for pre-order for $700. [via MaximumPC]

AMD Slowly Gains Share in GPU Market at Nvidia’s Expense

Posted by admin on August 29th, 2009

According to Jon Peddi research, growth in shipments of discrete videocards might mean the recession is winding down. It’s also good news for AMD, whose graphics market share has been on the rise thanks to a combination of stabilizing pricing and a hot-selling Radeon product line.

This allowed AMD to snag a larger share of the overall market, which increased to 34 percent for the quarter. But it’s not all bad news for Nvidia, who despite slipping four points still owns the lion’s share at 64 percent.

All told, Jon Peddie Research said that 16.81 million discrete videocards where shipped in the second quarter of 2009, which is a 3 percent increase from the first quarter, but still down 15 percent over the same quarter one year ago. But JPR believes the worst is over, noting the numbers “demonstrated some much-needed firmness in Q2′09, adding more evidence that demand has bottomed and a recovery is in the offing.”

Nvidia CEO Claims GPU Performance to Grow by 570x in Next Six Years

Posted by admin on August 27th, 2009

Technology moves forward at a rapid pace and any parts you buy today could very well turn obsolete in six months, let alone six years. But if Nvidia CEO Jen-Hsun Huang’s predictions turn true, the order of magnitude in which graphics technology is set to explode is like nothing we’ve seen in recent history.

According to Huang, GPU compute is likely to skyrocket by 570x over its current capabilities in the next six years. And never one to pass up a chance to take a dig at Intel and its CPU business, Huang also pointed out that ‘pure’ CPU performance will be limited to just 3x in same time frame.

If Huang’s crystal ball proves flawless, there won’t be any question whether or not upcoming GPUs can run Crysis. But gamers won’t be the only ones to benefit from the additional horsepower. Huang pointed out a number of “real-world” GPU applications, such as interactive ray tracing, CGI, and others.
