ENERMAX just released three new CPU coolers without much fanfare. The ETS-T41 family includes the Digital ARGB model, the Digital version, and the basic ETS-T41. These coolers share most key features but differ in their fans, outer finish, and whether they have a screen. Each stands 157 mm tall, with four copper heat pipes measuring 6 mm across. They come with two 120 mm fans and aluminum fins that can handle up to 250 watts of heat.
The fan types set these models apart from each other. Both Digital versions use Fluid Dynamic Bearing fans for smooth operation. The standard model comes with Hydro Dynamic Bearing fans instead. The Digital versions also have two different fan speeds - one runs at 600-1600 RPM, pushing up to 69.63 CFM of...
Vietnam just approved its first chip factory, which will cost $500 million. The country expects to finish the first phase by 2030, making specialized chips for military needs, AI systems, and other high-tech gadgets. The government will pay up to 30% of the costs, maxing out at 10 trillion VND, and hand out tax breaks to sweeten the deal. The Prime Minister leads a special team that watches how the project moves forward and where the money goes.
This factory kicks off Vietnam's bigger plan for making semiconductors, aiming to build up their ability to design, make, and test chips all in one country. The investment might seem small when you compare it to fancy new chip factories that cost around $50 billion. Vietnamese leaders see this...
ASRock Rack will attend GTC 2025 in San Jose from March 18-21 to showcase its powerful AI servers. They'll bring next-generation systems using the NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra platform and RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition.

MSI brought their latest server platforms to CloudFest 2025, showing them at booth H02 from March 18-20. These new systems include ORv3 Servers, DC-MHS Servers, and NVIDIA MGX AI Servers. ORv3 Servers focus on easy parts swapping and standard designs for quick growth. DC-MHS Servers can change shape to match different data center needs and pack more computing power into less space.
NVIDIA MGX AI Servers run AI and complex math tasks really fast. These systems help companies make their cloud setups more flexible and powerful. Danny Hsu, who leads MSI's Enterprise Platform Solutions, believes these servers will change how cloud systems work by making them more adaptable, efficient, and earth-friendly.
The AMD-powered DC-MHS servers...
Google plans to team up with MediaTek for its seventh-generation Tensor Processing Unit, TPU v7. Despite adding this new partner, they'll keep working with Broadcom. The AI chip should start production in 2026, with TSMC handling the manufacturing part. According to Economic Daily News, Google will design the main architecture itself, but MediaTek will take care of the input/output systems and other supporting parts.
This setup differs from how Google works with Broadcom, where both companies help create the core TPU design together. Google probably picked MediaTek because they have good connections at TSMC and charge less than Broadcom does. Some people think MediaTek might focus on building chips for running AI models, leaving...
Patriot Memory recently added two new portable SSD drives to its lineup: the Transporter Lite and Viper PVP30. These products help different users who need quick transfers, easy carrying, and steady performance.

China plans to spend $55 billion (¥398.12 billion) on science and technology in 2025, up 10% from last year's $50 billion (¥361.9 billion). This makes tech the country's third-biggest expense, right behind defense spending and interest payments on debt. Last year, the government used 97.6% of the money it set aside for tech, showing they put almost all planned resources to work.
The money mainly supports projects under the Science and Technology Innovation 2030 plan, with big chunks going to computer chips, AI, and quantum computing research. The gradual increase aims to build on what's already working rather than trying to make sudden breakthroughs. China wants to become less dependent on other countries for tech as global competition...
