The second introduced by Hitachi technology - Advanced Power Management, improved power management. The technology is more efficient use of electricity:
• First, the disk during idle time of its head are assigned, and the servo is turned off - this gives about 11% energy savings
• Secondly, when parked and servo head off, reduced the rate of rotation of the spindle motor - it gives 44% energy savings compared to conventional idle.
Volumes Deskstar P7K500 hard drive will be 250, 320, 400 and 500 GB drives on sale and available by the end of the year. The price of hard drives has not yet announced.
Processor:
Company VIA Technologies announced the release of the most energy-efficient quad-core processor, built on the architecture of x86. Thanks to the fine optimization and the use of special energy-saving technologies for multi-core processors, the VIA QuadCore perfectly combines high performance multimedia and Internet applications and amazingly low power consumption. Typical heat chip (TDP) of only 5.27 W at a frequency of 1.2 GHz, according to calculations of specialists VIA, it is 21% efficient nearest competitor.
Motherboard :
For advanced users, PC enthusiasts, gamers and overclockers company ASUSTeK Computer is offering its new motherboard P5E3 Deluxe / WiFi-AP @ n, which is positioned as the most cost-effective solution of its kind in the world. After the novelty has a unique power control unit ASUS EPU (Energy Processing Unit), allowing improved by adjusting the voltage of the module (VRM) to configure the CPU power supply properly at high or low loads, which, according to the developers, makes it possible to save up to 58.6% its energy.
• Full-featured ASUS AI Lifestyle;

TG-3269 is a 10/100/1000Mbps, 32-bit 33/66MHz PCI-bus Gigabit Ethernet adapter. With single UTP/STP and the Auto-Negotiation (Nway) function support, the Card can auto-negotiate 10Mbps, 100Mbps or 1000Mbps speed, and half or full duplex mode with its link partner (a hub, for example). Supports ACPI, compliant with PCI2.2. Full range of drivers are provided for major Operating Systems.
Video card:
Feature of this card - is about 35% energy savings on new advanced technologies. Having a lower frequency of graphics card AMD Radeon HD 5570 has a GPU, built on the 40nm 627 million transistors and 400 stream processors. This provides it with such figures as 8 blending units, 20 texture units., 650 MHz graphics core frequency and uses DDR3 memory, 900 MHz (1.8GHz) and split into pairs with 128-bit interface.
Due to a lower frequency, maximum power consumption of new video card will be 42.7Vt, while in idle power consumption 9.69Vt card. The reference card has a low-profile PCB, cooling uses a combination of a small heatsink with a fan. We assume that the partners will produce cards of their own design, of which there will be passively cooled.
Monitor :
Today, the company ViewSonic made a statement in which there is the release of new "green" LCD monitor. The new monitor is called ViewSonic VA1948m-LED and has a screen diagonal of 19 inches.
Developers of new products assures that the monitor is suitable both for use in the office or school, and for use at home. Novelty has a maximum screen resolution of 1440x900 pixels equal. Contrast of the display is 1000:1, Response Time 5 ms and brightness of 250 cd/m2. Viewing angle in the horizontal plane is 160 degrees and 160 degrees in the vertical, which is quite not bad. Novelty is equipped with an interface DVI-D, interface D-sub, headphone jack 3.5 mm and the two speakers built into the monitor case. Sound output is 2 watts each. Of the merits of ViewSonic VA1948m-LED like to mention a rather low power consumption, which is 18W. Dimensions of the monitor, complete with stand up 456.4h378h220 mm and weight of the monitor assembly - 3.2 kg.
At this time, monitor ViewSonic VA1948m-LED has been on the market in Europe and it costs 119 euros.
EPA, Microsoft introduced a new stylish and ergonomic Comfort Curve Keyboard 3000. Microsoft says that as a result of years of research, the undulating form is the most comfortable for prolonged typing on the keyboard and prevents fatigue soon fingers and hands. Keyboard rather pretty, thin and high-quality, but its main advantage, oddly enough, is its price - $ 20. The keyboard connects to your computer via USB.
Mouse :
Natural Wireless Laser Mouse 6000
If you’ve ever held a ball or shaken a hand, you already understand how natural and comfortable this wireless laser mouse feels when you grip it. You’ll immediately appreciate how it conforms to your hand in its most relaxed position, which naturally reduces pressure on your carpal tunnel and wrist. You’ll breeze through documents, media files, and webpages easily by using the four-way tilt-scroll wheel, aided by the precision and accuracy of industry-leading, high-definition laser technology.
The reason for choosing these devices is for ergonomics purpose. The keyboard and mouse to not really contribute much to the overall usage of energy, but we understand that they could cause a lot of stress on the user if their design is poor.
