MSI launches new AMD-based motherboard and graphics card
Press release, July 14; Joseph Tsai, DIGITIMES [Tuesday 14 July 2009]

Micro-Star International (MSI) has launched its AMD 760G chipset-based 760GTM-P33 motherboard, with integrated ATI Radeon HD 3000 GPU.

The motherboard also features MSI's Active Phase Switching (APS) technology, which is an IC chip that can automatically control various power supply demands to reduce total power usage, Easy OC Switch technology can help users to turn on overclocking with a click of the button, and TPM technology offers a more secure way to store files, highlighted the company.

The motherboard uses solid capacitors to ensure working stability.

MSI has also released its ATI Radeon HD 4890 GPU-based R4890 Cyclone series graphics cards, featuring 800 built-in stream processors and 1GB GDDR5 256-bit memory.

MSI R4890 Cyclone series adopt military class components, including Hi-c CAP, SSC (Solid State Chock), and long-life solid capacitors, and a 10cm PWM fan, noted MSI.

The MSI R4890 Cyclone series uses a 8mm heatpipe, which is 60% thicker than traditional heatpipes to help increase cooling efficiency by 90%.

  • 2H 2012 global TFT panel market forecast

    Digitimes Research predicts there will be a total of 389 million large-sized TFT LCD panels shipped in 2H12, with 195 million in the third quarter and 194 million in the fourth quarter - with the total representing a 7.6% increase over the first half of this year.

  • Trends and shipment forecast for 2H 2012 smartphone market

    Smartphone shipments in 2010 and 2011 both enjoyed growth of more than 60%. Growth will decelerate in 2012 due to the high base, as well as a slowdown in consumer spending in Western Europe.

  • Trends in Asia LED chip manufacturing industry

    Asia is playing an ever more important role in upstream LED chip manufacturing. The region accounted for 80% of MOCVD demand in 2011 and will account for 90% in 2012, largely because Taiwan, Japan, South Korea and China are the major global centers for LED chip production.
