ADATA has launched a new power supply named the CORE REACTOR II VE is inspired by the design of last year’s 650W CORE REACTOR II. This new power supply has three different models rated at 650W, 750W and 850W. For reference, Cooler Master’s recent ATZ ‘MAX’ case comes with a built-in power supply of the same output power.

Key details:

The CORE REACTOR II VE is measured at 140 x 150 x 86mm. This product packs 80 Plus gold certification, which means a minimum of 80% power efficiency in operation. To be more specific, this PSU is compatible with Intel’s latest ATX 3.1 design guidelines, which means a minimum of 82% efficiency at 20% load, 84% at 50% load, and 86% at 100% load. It also comes with a 12V-2×6 connector for latest graphics cards.

The XPG CORE REACTOR II VE improves efficiency with a DC-DC system that converts power directly to the required output voltage. The power supply also enhances system performance by keeping the ripple levels below 60mV at +12V and below 40mV at +5V and +3.3V.

In the event of an unwanted power shortage, the CORE REACTOR II VE can hold up the power for up to 15ms, which is Intel’s standard for uninterrupted power delivery. It ensures a stable operation in challenging situations. This power supply also offers 8 industrial protections including over-voltage (OVP), under-voltage (UVP), overcurrent protection (OCP), short circuit protection (SCP), over-power protection (OPP) and more.

For cooling, this PSU boasts a 120mm FDB fan which reportedly reaches 2400 RPM. ADATA is yet to announce the price tag of the XPG CORE REACTOR II VE PSU. We’ll update you when it happens.

XPG has just announced a new gaming peripheral concept. It’s a gaming mouse with RGB lighting, which doesn’t really make it any different from the thousands of options available in the market. So what’s the concept aspect of this mouse? Well, the company has just slapped a 1TB SSD storage into it.

For those unaware, XPG is the gaming and esports subbrand of the Chinese memory maker ADATA. Its subsidiary makes a number of gaming related products, and now, its latest concept pushes the boundaries of the norm. This new gaming mouse is called the XPG Vault Gaming Mouse Concept, which arrives with built in SSD storage. While mouse featuring storage is not unheard of, with many offering small storage to carry macros and other preferences of the gamer, the Vault takes it to another level entirely.

As the name suggests, it is quite literally a vault. Imagine your mouse being able to store 1TB worth of games, “to make your gaming libraries conveniently portable” (Via TheVerge). Notably, the company added that its “current prototype can integrate up to 1TB of Solid State memory running at 985MB/s.” It even supports USB Type C connectivity since it is a wired mouse. With 1TB worth of storage, one can store some modern titles and even carry a number of movies with them at all times.

Simply connecting to any laptop would have you gain access to these as well. Unfortunately, the company just announced this concept through a press release and did not reveal any finer details regarding this gaming mouse. However, this is set to be showcased during the CES 2022 event, so we can expect to catch a peek at this at the event. But considering that it is a concept in its prototype stage, it might just be a side project that never takes off or sees commercial release. Although, it is still quite an interesting kind of gaming mouse and definitely has a unique identity.
