Posted on June 8, 2006 11:33 AM by Rob Williams

Day 2 has come and gone, so there is more Computex fun to be had.

Once again, Hexus has a huge round-up.

techPowerUp! has taken a look at what Thermaltake has to offer.

Thermaltake has released more products than any other manufacturer at Computex. Among the highlights are a huge home theater case which looks like a big audio rack and has space for two systems. For visitors of lan parties a Shuttle-like case is offered which takes all standard size components and supports SLI. Several new watercooling products have been announced, including a watercooled passive PSU. A whole load of air and watercooled GPU coolers are new too.

Is NVIDIA going to invade the processor market?

Here at Computex we have the privilege of meeting a lot of companies’ employees ranging from CEO`s all the way down to Customer Service. We were very fortunate to speak with someone from Nvidia at a restaurant. We can not say who this person is, or what position this person holds. According to Him/Her, Nvidia will invade the processor market in the long future, telling us that it could take years but eventually – it will happen.

In addition to that speculation, NGOHQ provides their day 2 reports.

Today we have a lot of cool stuff from Computex. This time we chilled out our hormones and went to look for some hardware. We have pictures of SLI motherboards for Conroe, that are based on the Nvidia nForce 500 series. We also have some pictures of Abit motherboards, Dual GeForce 7600GTs from Galaxy, some sweet Nvidia rigs, Intel’s booth, Inno3D, and more babes. If you don’t read this article, you will have no idea what you’re missing.

We will post more news as it comes in..
