COLORFUL Introduces Flagship iGame Z790D5 VULCAN
Colorful Technology Company Limited launches the fl agship iGame Z790D5 Vulcan W and Z790D5 Vulcan X motherboards. First seen at COMPUTEX 2024, the iGame Z790D5 Vulcan
is available in white and black models and comes in an E-ATX form-factor. T e motherboard comes equipped with the latest technologies including USB4 40Gbps connectivity and the latest WiFi 7 solution. Designed for high-performance gaming and content creation,
the iGame Z790D5 Vulcan W/X motherboards are equipped with a 19+1+1 power phase design with DrMos 105A power stages. Furthermore, the motherboard has a dedicated LN2 Mode for extreme overclocking. T e motherboard’s server-grade 8-layer low- loss PCB helps achieve higher and stable overclocks. T e iGame Z790D5 Vulcan motherboards come equipped with
high-performance fi n-stack heatsinks on its VRMs. It sports a large heatsink at the bottom that covers the M.2 slots and PCH and uses a quick-release mechanism for easy M.2 SSD installation. T e motherboard’s RGB-lit Vulcan branding on the rear I/O cover is fully customisable using the iGame Center app. Designed for high-end desktop systems for gaming and content
creation, the iGame Z790D5 Vulcan motherboard is built with a server-grade 8-layer low-loss PCB with a 19+1+1 Power Phase Design with DrMOS 105A power stages. T e motherboard is built to support Intel Core i9-level processors with overclocking in mind. T e motherboard’s LN2 MODE is specifi cally designed to assist
professional overclockers in achieving record-breaking frequencies. For the memory, the iGame Z790D5 Vulcan has four alloy-
reinforced DDR5 memory slots with thickened gold-plated contacts and supports dual-channel DDR5 up to 7800MHz+ (OC). T e motherboard also has onboard power on and restart buttons. T e iGame Z790D5 Vulcan motherboards have four M.2 slots
for NVMe SSDs. T e top-most M.2 slot sports PCIe 5.0 x4 interface and comes with a large fi n-stack style heatsink to keep the SSD cool for stable performance. T e rest of the M.2 slots use PCIe 4.0 x4 interface, hidden under the large heatsink armor that can be easily accessed with its quick-release mechanism. T e motherboard also has six SATA 3 connectors for multiple HDD confi gurations.
TA35/TA36: Thermal-Magnetic Circuit Breakers
SCHURTER has a long tradition with circuit breakers. In addition to their thermal release (bimetal), the classic TA35 and TA36 are now optionally equipped with an additional magnetic module, which promises reliable protection within milliseconds in the event of very high overcurrent (short circuit).
Thermal Circuit Breakers Circuit breakers are usually designed according to the thermal principle with a bimetal. If a defi ned temperature is exceeded due to overcurrent, the electric circuit is interrupted. Once the bimetal cooled down, the appliance is ready for use again. However, if a short circuit occurs, the bimetal cannot react fast enough. For this reason, thermal circuit breakers are usually combined with a fuse.
Additional Magnetic Module SCHURTER is now upgrading its 2-pole classic TA35 and TA36 models with an additional, optional magnetic module. From now on, no additional fuse is required when using a thermal-magnetic type. Depending on the application, the magnetic modules are available either with a slow or a fast acting characteristic. Both models are designed for snap-in mounting and with fi nely

graduated rated currents. A variety of colours and lighting options make the designer’s choice easier. T e SCHURTER TA35 has a more classic style, while its TA36 counterpart comes in a more modern design. A circuit breaker with a short circuit protection is mainly meant for applications, where a full protection on the primary side is required.
