After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain. I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain. If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration.
Please update your bookmarks and be sure to visit the new and improved Ninjalane at Hardwareasylum.com

Sapphire
We met Sapphire at CES this year and got to meet some more of the Sapphire sales and marketing team at Computex. There really wasn't a ton of stuff on display and the new items were targeted at APAC only. Things like the FirePSU which are special designed for the FireGL line of workstation cards.
The PSU units might make it to the US but under a different brand name.

VaporX is still very popular and several of their high-end cards were on display.
Most of these companies beg and borrow hardware to build their demo systems, seems that Sapphire hit up Foxconn to build out at least one of their systems.
Conclusion
Well that wraps up our Computex Day 2 coverage; we actually had a very long meeting with MSI that went well beyond the typical 20-30 minute timeframe. This was extremely productive but did prevent us from getting a booth tour and photos.
