    EVGA

    The first meeting of Computex was with EVGA who had a suite in the Grand Hyatt Hotel next to Hall 1.

    Of course the biggest announcement before Computex was the release of their much anticipated P67 FTW and SLI motherboards.  The FTW pictured here is basically the Classified version but is not so named due to there being one less SKU in the P67 lineup.
    Other items included and prospects of both GTX 570 and 580 Classified edition video cards designed for enthusiast tweaking.  The GTX 570 is pictured here and we are told the GTX 580 edition will stand about an inch or so taller than the standard PCB which should be really exciting.
    EVGA has been promising their PCoIP solution for a couple years now and we are told it is finally ready.  The system allows you to access your computer over a network instead of having to be right next to the system. You can now put that noisy and powerful computer in remote location and have quiet computing wherever you have a network drop.
    The system requires two parts, the first is the main connection module that replaces the PC while the second is the HD control module that converts the video and system signals to an Ethernet one.
