Intel Intros 7-Series Motherboards

Intel has completed its newest batch of motherboards, the 7-Series that will serve its upcoming CPUs which may or may not handle triple-monitor input. 

There are a bunch of new platforms powered by the Z77, H77 and B75 chipsets. 

Depending on their feature sets, they fit into one of the several motherboard lines shown here. 

Together, though, the newcomers make up the 7-series. 

Intel Ivy Bridge Won't Support Three Displays Easily

The Ivy Bridge series of CPUs will be many things, but one of its features might turn out to be somewhat too hard to make use of for motherboard makers and, by extension, consumers as well.

Intel's oft-delayed next-generation central processing units will be many things: the latest CPUs from the Santa Clara, California-based company, the most advanced and, thus fastest yet, the most capable in terms of graphics (compared to their predecessors), etc.


The graphics side of things might not be all it's cracked up to be though.

Microsoft Details the Online Backup Service for Windows Server “8”

One of the features that Microsoft’s upcoming Windows Server codenamed 8 will arrive with is the Microsoft Online Backup Service. 

It was meant to deliver a fast and secure solution for backing up various files and folders into the cloud, so that they would be safe from on-premises disaster.

While many are still skeptical when it comes to putting their data into the cloud, the new feature proposed by Microsoft can be used only for keeping a backup of files available in the cloud for emergency situations. 


Basically, the company proposes a dual approach: you will have your files backed up both on local machines, and into the cloud, for extra safety.

Intel Medfield-Based Lava Xolo X900 Coming to India in Late April

Showcased one month ago at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Lava’s Xolo X900 Android smartphone will make its debut in India in late April.

The folks at AndroidOS have been tipped on the smartphone’s availability timeframe, though there is no detail on Xolo X900’s price tag. Rumor has it that the device will be priced lower than expected in order to successfully compete with other regional brands.

Word is that Lava will launch the Xolo X900 for around 400 USD (300 EUR) off-contract, but this has yet to be confirmed by the manufacturer.


Although the device will be shipped with Android 2.3 Gingerbread out of the box, Lava promised the phone would be upgraded to Ice Cream Sandwich sometime this year.

EA’s UEFA Euro 2012 Arrives as DLC for FIFA 12 in April

In a pretty massive turn of events, Electronic Arts has confirmed that its upcoming UEFA Euro 2012 football simulator will be released not as a retail game, like previous Euro experiences, but as a downloadable expansion for the current FIFA 12 soccer title.

Electronic Arts broke sales records with FIFA 12 when it came out last year and the newly released FIFA Street isn’t doing so bad either, with quite a few people buying the simulator that focuses more on tricks rather than realism.
