CeBIT: hardware

As weird as it may seem, it’s really hard to have a correct internet connection in the CeBIT. We’re in the middle of the largest IT fair in Europe, and no way to get more than 1Mbit/s shared for all the computers in the booth… So, as I’m back home, I now can upload pics, and write a little more.

I’ll write some articles in the next days about different topics, and let’s start with the hardware.

Cooler Master and its partners (Intel, Foxconn, Asus, Powercolor, Kingston, Corsair…) provided us with a lot of great parts for the overclocking show. We only used a short amount of them, but it was good to have backups.

• Mainboards: Foxconn X48ES - Asus P5E3 Premium (X48ES) (*2) - Asus P5E3 Deluxe (X38ES) (*3) - Asus Maximus Formula - Intel D5400XS (LGA771) (*2)
