Better Heat Dissipation In The Stress Test. building the ultimate home theater pc. Hype aside, is it really possible to build a PC that is quiet and does everything that a high-end remote-controlled set-top box can do? And don't forget it's got to look good...

Power (TDP) determines the maximum quantity of heat that a cooling system for a notebook processor has to be able to dissipate to ensure error-free processor operation. As such, it is the yardstick of the CPU's maximum heat dissipation ("energy consumption")....

• -Why Does The P4-M Permit A Higher Maximum Junction Termperature?

properly test the heat dissipation capabilities of these pads in critical situations, we really needed a poorly-designed notebook that cranked out a lot of heat. Unfortunately, we did not have one available. Then a foolish idea came to mind. We noticed that...

• -Conclusion

only a small plastic panel on front and a full-size panel on back. Next I noticed that instead of flat sides on the box, there were large dimples that reminded me of a golf ball. Whimsical or functional? Maybe the dimples would assist in heat dissipation? But,...

LaCie has produced an enclosure that's impeccably crafted, with the whole thing ia finished in aluminum to improve the efficiency of heat dissipation.  There's a large round button at the front that automatically backs up USB peripherals.   File sharing...

lens is placed in front of a monochrome (red, green or blue) cathode-ray tube. The tubes operate on the same principle as television tubes, except that they're smaller. They operate at a very high luminosity level, and heat dissipation is handled by a liquid...

can lead to extended periods of power consumption of 34 Watts, but the notebook's cooling system isn't designed to handle the resulting heat dissipation. Whenever the processor temperature exceeds its maximum permissible temperature value, the CPU automatically...
