Oppo Finder 5 Live Photo, Brings 5-Inch Full HD Display

Chinese Oppo has just been beaten by HTC in announcing the first smartphone to feature a full HD touchscreen. However, it appears that Oppo will be in fact the first company to launch such a device on the market. The company’s upcoming Oppo Find 5 has just been caught on camera. The smartphone is expected to go on sale in China in November, whereas HTC’s J Butterfly handset is set to hit shelves in Japan sometime in December. The bad news is that both smartphones are unlikely to be available outside China and Japan, respectively. Just like the HTC J Butterfly, Oppo Find 5 will boast a 5-inch capacitive touchscreen display that supports full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) resolution and 441ppi. Moreover, the superphone will...

Nokia Lumia 510 Camera Sample Leaks

The first leaks on Lumia 510 emerged earlier this month, along with the phone’s live picture. However, we don’t know for sure when exactly the handset will be launched on the market. Today, the folks over at Pocketnow have uncovered a photo captured with Lumia 510’s camera.

Gigabyte F2A85X-D3H FM2 ATX Sized Motherboard

Motherboard makers haven’t really launched as many FM2 motherboards as they could have, in anticipation of AMD's release of desktop-compatible Trinity accelerated processing units, but they are at least trying to make up for lost time. After introducing a micro-ATX motherboard featuring the FM2 socket, Gigabyte has revealed a full-ATX platform equipped with the same chip interface. Called F2A85X-D3H, the newcomer is, as one might have guessed, powered by the AMD A85X chipset, which is wired to eight SATA 6.0 Gbps ports (all internal, two are angled). Meanwhile, since Trinity Accelerated Processing Units integrate not just a GPU (Radeon HD 7000 series) but the memory controller as well, the four DDR3 DIMM slots on the mainboard...

ASRock Z77 Extreme11

It seems that not a month goes by without an ASRock motherboard appearing or at least being detailed in a leak of some sort. This particular occasion marks the official introduction of the company's strongest platform yet. The name of the new motherboard, which we actually detailed a week ago, is Z77 Extreme11, and the processors supported by it are those designed with the LGA 1155 socket. The Z77 chipset is the strongest of those compatible with such CPUs, otherwise known as third-generation Core-Series Ivy Bridge. The special logo of the Extreme line is plainly visible on the cooling system installed on the product, particularly around the CPU socket. We could start listing all the specs of the mainboard, but ASRock...
