										<content:encoded><![CDATA[High-performing all-in-one water cooling units with IPS display, vivid ARGB lighting, and whisper-quiet operationGlinde, July 28, 2026 &#8211; be quiet!, the German manufacturer for premium PC components and peripherals, is proud to announce Light Loop IO LCD, a new addition to the Light Loop all-in-one water cooling series. Designed for heavily overclocked systems, Light Loop IO LCD combines high cooling performance and whisper-quiet operation with a striking IPS display and intense RGB lighting, in 240mm and 360mm radiator sizes and in two color options (black and white). An included IO Controller enables software control, while daisy-chained Light Wings LX PWM high-speed fans and extensive customization options make Light Loop IO LCD a visually impressive and highly capable cooling solution. “With Light Loop IO LCD, we are expanding the Light Loop series with a model that combines powerful cooling, quiet operation, and a new level of personalization,” says Aaron Licht, CEO of be quiet! “The IPS display, vivid ARGB lighting, and included IO Controller make this cooler a compelling choice for users who want high performance as well as a truly distinctive look for their system.” Peak performance with whisper-quiet operationLike the regular Light Loop models, Light Loop IO LCD is engineered for maximum cooling performance. A specially designed jet plate accelerates the cooling liquid flow velocity, while the cold plate with a high-density fin stack maximizes heat dissipation for today’s flagship and high-performance CPUs. A state-of-the-art pump with progressive IC minimizes switching noise for whisper-quiet pump operation, while the daisy-chained Light Wings LX PWM high-speed fans with funnel-shaped air outlets and airflow-optimized blades deliver both high performance and vibrant illumination. Outstanding IPS display and vivid lightingLight Loop IO LCD features an eye-catching cooling unit with a 2.1-inch IPS display with 480&#215;480 pixel resolution and 500 nits brightness to show system information, videos, or images. The round display is paired with RGB lighting and can be customized extensively through be quiet!’s IO Center. The included IO Controller transmits signal and power to the all-in-one water cooler with a single cable. It can be magnetically attached anywhere in the case, while hidden fan cables along the tubes help create a clean appearance and reduce cable clutter. Flexible sleeved tubes ensure easy handling, and an easy-to-access refill port with included coolant bottle helps support a long lifespan. Full control over your hardware and lighting with improved IO CenterIO Center for Windows has received a major update, now offering vivid presets and customization options for ARGB lighting, fan profiles, and system-monitoring displays. Through an intuitive interface, users can personalize the Light Loop IO LCD display with several preset or custom background effects and showcase real-time sensor data, such as CPU, GPU, or liquid temperatures and clock speeds. IO Center also supports color calibration to match LED colors with other RGB devices in your system. Backgrounds and lighting effects can be saved directly to the cooler’s onboard memory, ensuring that preferred settings remain active even when the software is not running. New in IO Center is Hardware Monitor, which provides real-time system data at a glance, keeping you informed about temperatures, frequencies, load levels, and the battery status of compatible peripherals, such as the Dark Perk gaming mice. Additionally, IO Center Web offers web-based access to most of these options from Windows, Mac, or Linux from most Chromium-based browsers. It runs without admin access in most environments, making it ideal for workstations and restricted systems. Settings remain active after the browser is closed because they are stored in the onboard memory. Light Loop IO LCD will be available in retail from August 11 at the following prices: Light Loop IO LCD 360mm White: €234.90 / $254.90 / £179.99Light Loop IO LCD 360mm Black: €229.90 / $249.90 / £179.99Light Loop IO LCD 240mm White: €209.90 / $229.90 / £159.99Light Loop IO LCD 240mm Black: €204.90 / $224.90 / £159.99 Light Loop IO LCD is backed by a 3-year manufacturer’s warranty.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[With human bodies being bags of mostly salty water and countless messy biochemical processes, it’s little wonder that over time some residues tend to collect in these systems. Although evolution has seen fit to also evolve a range of mechanisms to clean up many of those messes, some of these waste products are left to gather, such as advanced glycation end-products (AGEs). Implicated in everything from diabetes to chronic kidney disease and general aging-related conditions, recently researchers have developed a way to break down one type of these AGEs.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[NVIDIA is in talks to provide roughly $250 billion in financing guarantees for OpenAI&#8217;s planned data center campus in southern Ohio, according to the Wall Street Journal, cited by Reuters. The project is being developed by SB Energy, a SoftBank subsidiary and is a 10-gigawatt facility sited on a decommissioned uranium-enrichment site about 50 miles south of Columbus, Ohio. The total cost, including chips, could exceed $500 billion making it the largest data center project announced to date. The financing structure would have NVIDIA backstop a set of lending instruments to reassure investors, which is necessary partly because OpenAI hasn&#8217;t turned a profit and can&#8217;t qualify for investment-grade credit on its own. The $250 billion commitment covers the lease and construction financing but not the chips. For those it seems that NVIDIA is also in talks to help fund OpenAI&#8217;s chip purchases, a figure the WSJ puts at up to $350 billion. Remember that last year, OpenAI and NVIDIA teamed up on a huge project to set up 10 gigawatts of NVIDIA systems, the latter planning (at that time) to invest up to $100 billion into OpenAI.

Manufactured across five fabs in Taiwan, the company currently has only one fab in volume production on the N2 node. This is reportedly Fab 20, which has reached this figure. TSMC began high-volume production of its N2 node in the fourth quarter of 2025. Fast-forward two quarters to today, and the 2 nm node now accounts for only 3% of the company&#8217;s revenue, while the 3 nm node commands 30%, and the 5 nm node holds the top spot at 33%.
