Neowin: Lenovo ThinkPad P17 review: Intel Xeon and Quadro RTX power

Lenovo's ThinkPad P17 is just a beast of a laptop, and in fact, using it was more like using a desktop. It packs a ton of power, with Intel Xeon processors and Quadro RTX graphics with 16GB GDDR6.

Glob3trotters: SilverStone IceGem 360 mm ARGB AIO

Since the Threadripper series was launched, very few companies managed to offer a full sized contact plate that can cover the whole IHS from the CPU. Silverstone not only offers that with their new IceGem series, but also an aesthetics design to die for. Coupled with some pressure optimized ARGB fans and a three phase, six pole design for the pump, this AIO promises to be a real success !

APH Networks: SilverStone ECU06, ECU07, MS12 Review

I remember when I was in graduate school, my research involved running experiments using wireless communication system-on-a-chip development kits. In order to change the communication protocol for performance comparison, I had to do a lot of coding for these embedded systems. One way for me to debug my code was to monitor the debug prints through the terminal. For a long period of time, I thought the USB cable that connected the wireless development kit to the computer was the only thing responsible for delivering the debug prints. I did not think too much about how the mechanism worked, since a USB cable was the only thing needed to program and to debug the development kit. One day, I was investigating a protocol called the Serial Line Internet Protocol running on the development kit. That protocol basically allowed IP data exchange between the development kit and the computer through a serial line. I was a bit confused, since I thought all communication was over USB, not the serial port. In fact, to the best of my understanding, serial ports had been replaced by USB a long time ago for pretty much everything, and it is impossible to find things like an RS232 port on a computer anymore. After doing some research, I realized the development kit was using UART, which was a serial-based communication mechanism to connect to the computer. There was also a USB-to-serial bridge on the development kit so we could use a standard USB port for the UART connection. USB is such an interesting communication mechanism, since it not only achieves higher and higher data rates, but also a convenient way to support legacy solutions. In today's review, we are going to take a look at some USB-related products from SilverStone; namely, the ECU06, ECU07, and MS12. These products allow us to use the latest USB technology on your old computer. For example, if your computer case has an external USB Type-C port, but your motherboard does not have a USB Type-C internal port, how can you still enjoy the latest USB Type-C speed? Or if you want to convert an NVMe SSD into an external USB drive, what do you do? SilverStone has a solution to all of the listed. Let us read on and find out the details!
