In the past we have discussed how to light up your keyboard for typing in the dark, but Tinkernut Tech Blog is going to show us how to make an awesome backlit keyboard using electro luminescent wire. This cool method will work with just about any keyboard, it’s suggested you use a keyboard that has a built-in USB port, this way you can plug the el-wire’s inside.

The instructions are fairly simple and straight forward, although you will have to disassemble your keyboard. Seriously, you will have to remove each key from the board, but just make sure you remember the the order of the keys when it’s time to assemble, or take a snap shot of the keyboard will work. Check out the video above for step by step block of instructions.

Hynix’s newly validated products are 2Gb DDR3 SDRAM component, 4GB (Gigabyte) DDR3 SODIMM (Small Outline Dual In-line Memory Module) and 2GB DDR3 UDIMM (Un-buffered Dual In-line Memory Module) at the operating speed of 1333MHz with 1.5V power supply.

The products can offer the maximum data transfer speed of 1867MHz with 16-bit I/O and 3.7GB/s (Gigabytes per second) bandwidth. The productivity of Hynix’s 40nm class 2Gb DDR3 is increased by more than 60% over 50nm class process technology.

In addition, Hynix responds to the industry demand for ‘Green’ or ‘Eco-friendly’ products with this new 40nm class 2Gb DDR3 that reduces power consumption by 40% over the preceding products using 50nm class. This is about twice as much as the industry average of reduction in terms of power consumption.

“The current mainstream density has been rapidly transferring from 1Gb to 2Gb for the higher performance servers market. We expect to secure the industry’s best features of both 1Gb and 2Gb DDR3 products”, said Mr. J.B. Kim, Chief Marketing Officer of Hynix.

Hynix has begun mass producing this new 2Gb DDR3 using 40nm class. The Company also expects that the validation of RDIMM (Registered Dual In-line Memory Module) will be also completed within this year.

The side plates are comprised of pure copper, providing much more heat reduction than other metals.

One of the unique characteristics of the Copperhead System is the “Copperhead Watercooler”. This is a quick and easy way to liquid-cool your memory modules. All that is needed is a quick, two-screw setup per memory module and Copperhead can be integrated into any existing watercooling system. The water cooler is available separately.
