Montech TEN Review
TechPowerUp reviews the Montech TEN, a microATX case that can be configured in three layouts (air cooling, liquid cooling, Mini-ITX mode). It supports up to 425 mm GPUs, 360 mm radiators, and costs $70. The review investigates performance, build quality, and whether the low price leads to cut corners.
Motorless solid-state cooler uses heat to cool itself; could recycle processor heat into cooling — shape-memory alloy films could turn data center exhaust into refrigeration
A team from KIT and University of Tsukuba developed a prototype solid-state cooling system that uses shape-memory alloy films to convert heat into mechanical motion for refrigeration. The device achieved a 4.0 K temperature span when Joule-heated and 2.2 K when driven by an external heat source. While still experimental (2.09 mW cooling power), it could lead to processors and data centers recycling waste heat for cooling.
