Power Up an ATX PSU (Power Supply Unit) without a Motherboard


How to Power Up an ATX PSU without a Motherboard

Today I have a quickie guide on powering up a power supply without  the aid of a motherboard.  This guide is aimed at the user who needs just a little more power to get that peltier working or to get more fans in your box.  A 250W may not be enough for those chores, so here we have a solution. Get another PSU just to power those specific components.

   As most of you know, motherboards usually come with just one ATX plug.  How that works is, the two pins on the row of your motherboard is usually connected by a momentary switch.  To put it in layman's terms, the switch you press in front of your case causes a 'jump' in those two pins which in turn tells the power supply to turn on.

It is my pleasure to tell you that, company has rolled out the latest version of Android i.e. ICS and made it available to download for Motorola XOOM Wi-Fi & LTE users of USA. As the update is still in beta version so only the rooted device owners will be able to get the access to ICS, as the official update will take some time to launch.

Motorola said they will provide the delicious ICS update to other versions of Xoom, if the things go on way as they are expecting. This beta version of ROM will be known as (IML77) Cyanogen Mod 9. The update will only work for those users who have rooted their device.

Motorola Xoom Wi-Fi Gets Ice Cream Sandwich


Finally Motorola has started rolling out Android 4.0 or Ice Cream Sandwich to Motorola Xoom owners in the U.S., but only those who have the Wi-Fi version of the device.
This will bring a redesigned app launcher, a better web browser, resizable widgets and many other goodies to the tablet.
As for the 3G version of the tablet, Motorola said it will get the update as well, but did not give an exact date.
The update will be rolling out in “phases over the course of a few weeks,” so don’t be perturbed if your Xoom still hasn’t been updated.
Motorola is also slated to update its Droid Razr with Ice Cream Sandwich in early 2012.

Rockstar Games Delays Max Payne 3 Release Until May

Eager gamers will have to wait until May before getting their hands on the new dark and gritty third-shooter game Max Payne 3. The Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 game will hit U.S. shelves on May 15 and May 18 in Europe. Fans will have to wait even longer for the PC version that lets out on May 29 in the U.S. and on June 1 in Europe.
Video gamers and blogs speculate that the delayed release is an effort to avoid sharing the spotlight with highly anticipated Mass Effect 3, to be released on March 6, around the time Max Payne 3 was set to release originally.
On Wednesday, Rockstar Games released a preview video for Max Payne 3, which received rave reviews from gamers on Twitter. The three-minute video shows off the game’s advanced design and technological features. The developers have said this game will be very realistic, incorporating powerful storytelling and “precise and fluid gunplay.”

Google Collected 4.5 Million Anti-SOPA Signatures Yesterday

Google generally gets in hot water when it is thought to be abusing its pole position in the search industry. But it’s no use denying that while some moves skirt the edges of abusing monopoly, others are more than welcome. During natural disasters, for instance, Google has provided helpful links and resources for people who want to donate or volunteer. And their logo doodles pay homage to personages and events many people would otherwise have overlooked.
Today must rank among the best applications of their choice placement: a link on the Google homepage and thousands of shares have produced a mind-blowing 4.5 million signatures on their anti-SOPA petition.

One In Ten South Koreans Now Owns A Samsung Galaxy S II


White Galaxy S2 3
It’s not really news to say that the Galaxy S II is a hit, but it has actually become a mega hit in South Korea. According to maker Samsung, the Android handset has been sold a whopping 5 million times in its domestic market since release at the end of April 2011. In other words, a little more than 10% of the country’s entire population (48 million people) are now proud owners of the phone.
It’s the first cell phone that has reached this milestone in mobile-crazy South Korea, according to Japanese business daily The Nikkei. The paper also says that one out of four South Korean smartphones users owns a Galaxy S II (sounds like feature phones don’t play a big role in that country anymore).
In 2011, Samsung commanded a 53% market share in South Korea’s smartphone industry.
The company recently decided not to take legal action against its fiercest competitor, Apple, in its home market – despite being in a patent war with the iPhone maker the whole world over. It looks like Samsung can afford it.
