The world’s first mesh keyboard

City of Industry, CA, August 21st 2007, Enermax is proud to announce the latest addition to its high-end aluminum keyboard series: the Caesar. Following the success of its earlier release of Aurora aluminum keyboards, Enermax has yet again set a new level of engineering standard that hasn’t been reached before in the keyboard industry, making Caesar the very premium model of all Enermax “finest aluminum artwork”-class keyboards. In a time when flawless function is taken for granted and quality standards are converging increasingly, design defines vital differences in today’s markets.

Consists of a massive 2.5mm solid brushed aluminum body with diamond-cut edges and entangled by a solid 0.6mm steel mesh, the look and feel of the Caesar is astonishing. With patented Scissors key switch technology, Caesar is ideal for users who akin to products with unique design and appearance, or someone who prefer “notebook-alike” key switch.

Caesar comes with two built-in USB 2.0 ports as well as a built-in audio I/O chip which gives user easy access to their microphone, headsets or VoIP phone. The Windows Vistatm certified Caesar comes with 5 integrated hotkeys for Windows Vistatm – Mail, Search, Flip 3D, Gadgets and Media Center functions, and 5 Media Hot keys for Play/Pause, Stop, Volume up, Volume down and Mute. A solid and steady body of 3.2 lbs with three different height adjustments, and extended wrist rest for user comforts, Caesar is truly the “Emperor of Keyboards”.

The Caesar (KB005-U) are available in black or silver, and will be available at Newegg.com, ZipZoomfly.com, Directron.com, PC Club, Micro Center in September with MSRP of $75. For detailed specifications and distribution opportunity please visit Enermax corporate website at – www.enermaxusa.com

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

“NVIDIA Tesla™ is going to make discovery of huge oil reserves possible through faster and more accurate interpretation of geophysical data.” —Steve Briggs, Headwave, Inc.

“NVIDIA Tesla will give us a 100-fold increase in some of our programs, and this is on desktop machines where previously we would have had to run these calculations on a cluster.” —John Stone, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign

“NVIDIA Tesla has opened up completely new worlds for computational electromagnetics.” —Ryan Schneider, Acceleware

SANTA CLARA, CA—JUNE 20, 2007—High-performance computing in fields like the geosciences, molecular biology, and medical diagnostics enable discoveries that transform billions of lives every day. Universities, research institutions, and companies in these and other fields face a daunting challenge: as their simulation models become exponentially complex, so does their need for vast computational resources.

NVIDIA took a giant step in meeting this challenge with today’s announcement of a new class of processors based on a revolutionary new graphics processing unit (GPU). Under the NVIDIA® Tesla™ brand, NVIDIA will offer a family of GPU computing products that will place the power previously available only from supercomputers in the hands of every scientist and engineer. Today’s workstations will be transformed into “personal supercomputers.”

“Today’s science is no longer confined to the laboratory; scientists employ computer simulations before a single physical experiment is performed. This fundamental transition to computational methods is forging a new path for discoveries in science and engineering,” said Jen-Hsun Huang, president and CEO of NVIDIA. “By dramatically reducing computation times, in some cases from weeks to hours, NVIDIA Tesla represents the single most significant disruption the high-performance computing industry has seen since Cray 1′s introduction of vector processing.”

The Tesla family of GPU computing solutions span PCs to large scale server clusters. The new family includes:

• NVIDIA Tesla GPU Computing Processor, a dedicated computing board that scales to multiple Tesla GPUs inside a single PC or workstation. The Tesla GPU features 128 parallel processors, and delivers up to 518 gigaflops of parallel computation. The GPU Computing processor can be used in existing systems partnered with high-performance CPUs.
• NVIDIA Tesla Deskside Supercomputer, a scalable computing system that includes two NVIDIA Tesla GPUs and attaches to a PC or workstation through an industry-standard PCI-Express connection. With multiple deskside systems, a standard PC or workstation is transformed into a personal supercomputer, delivering up to 8 teraflops of compute power to the desktop.
• NVIDIA Tesla GPU Computing Server, a 1U server housing up to eight NVIDIA Tesla GPUs, containing more than 1000 parallel processors that add teraflops of parallel processing to clusters. The Tesla GPU Server is the first server system of its kind to bring GPU computing to the datacenter.

Computing on NVIDIA Tesla is now available to any software developer through the world’s only C-language development environment for the GPU. NVIDIA® CUDA™ is a complete software development solution that includes a C-compiler for the GPU, debugger/profiler, dedicated driver, and standard libraries. CUDA simplifies parallel computing on the GPU by using the standard C language to create programs that process large quantities of data in parallel. Programs written with CUDA and run on Tesla are able to process thousands of threads simultaneously, providing high computational throughput to enable the GPU to quickly solve complex, computational problems. The NVIDIA CUDA development environment is currently supported on the Linux and Microsoft® Windows® XP operating systems.

Most applications that require massive compute power can leverage the power of NVIDIA Tesla to make parallel computing power more pervasive and affordable. CUDA’s recent success can be seen in both the academic and the application development communities. In addition to adoption by leading universities that are pioneering new courses in parallel computing, CUDA is being actively used by thousands of developers and scientists in applications from molecular simulation to seismic analysis to medical device design.

“Many of the molecular structures we analyze are so large that they can take weeks of processing time to run the calculations required for their physical simulation,” said John Stone, senior research programmer at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. “NVIDIA’s GPU computing technology has given us a 100-fold increase in some of our programs, and this is on desktop machines where previously we would have had to run these calculations to a cluster. NVIDIA Tesla promises to take this forward with more flexible computing solutions.”¹

“Geophysical and seismic analysis has historically been a batch process that takes many, many hours,” said Steve Briggs, vice president of systems integration at Headwave, a Houston-based geophysical visualization company. “Without inventions like Tesla and CUDA GPU computing technology, discoveries like Jack Field, where a large oil reserve was detected 27,000 feet beneath the Gulf of Mexico, simply would never have been found. NVIDIA’s announcement today is going to make discoveries of this and even larger magnitude more possible.”²

“Running electromagnetic simulations using NVIDIA’s compute hardware accelerates processing times by factors of 25 or more—applying a level of complexity to the analysis and optimization of medical products which nobody dreamed of, even two years ago,” said Ryan Schneider, CTO of Acceleware Corporation. “NVIDIA and Acceleware’s solutions have opened completely new worlds for computational electromagnetics.”
