    3D Mark Vantage available for download

    Well that was a wasted download... Q6600/2Gb/8800GTS(640Mb) - I watched the first test then hit escape. The graphics looked like they were from 5 years ago, and run at about 10fps. 3DMark06 looks infinitely better in terms of IQ and runs at much higher frame rates. What, exactly, is the point...

    Now 6 Zalman VF900 Video Card Cooler Reviews......

    The word you're looking for is volume. The volume of sales of high-end AGP cards is much lower than that of high-end PCI-e cards. If you make fewer of something, the unit cost tends to be higher. Ditto graphics heatsinks versus CPU heatsinks. The CNPS7000 may be superior to the VF-900 in...

    Zalman VF900 GPU cooler

    Sorry to burst your bubble here but that's largely nonsense. The site you link to also has a number of glaring factual inaccuracies. In order then... The statement "Less weight is always bad" is simply wrong. If you stick a 500g cube of copper to a graphics card, I guarantee that it will cool...

    Stupid Question: What does dual core mean in real-world performance right now?

    It's most useful when you're a serious multi-tasker - i've recently gone dual-core and love the fact that I can encode/zip/compile something in the background and still use the system as normal. There are lots of little things like large hi-res print jobs not slowing the system down which...

    CPU-Z Claims my 805 is running at 2.6v...

    Okay, I'm running a Pentium D 805, completely stock, on a crappy ASROCK 775-TwinsHDTV (until I can afford a nice mobo and 2Gb of DDR2, anyway). I bought it new and plan to overclock in the future once the rest of the system is up to it. Having heard good things about the B0 revision, I...

    Considering 7800GT-SLI - Have one XFX Card Already

    Concise form is in the topic! I've done a quick search and can't find any up-to-date information on quite how good mixed-vendor SLI support is these days. I'm having trouble finding a matching card and may have to buy a different model - how likely is it to work? Also, is it just me, or is...

    Earth Rotation

    Just out of interest, what higher knowledge allows you to state "...almost certainly wrong"? String theory is still the only plausible and mathematically consistent GUT that I know of...

    So why is another card needed just for physics?

    Simply: Specialisation. Physics Processing requires incredible amounts of internal bandwith and performs simple but intensely repetitive calculations. Specialisation is currently on the way back - these things fluctuate - with AMD recently announcing the possibility of specialist co-processors...

    Install XP From DOS Using USB

    Okay, I'm tearing my hair out here trying to install XP on an old laptop. The CD-Rom drive is knackered and it's not removable so replacing it would require finding a compatible unit (almost impossible) and then re-building it to install. I'm currently trying to install off a USB cd-rom...

    Using a TV as a computer monitor

    Suggest you stop being patronising and Google something yourself. Dual-link DVI used six TDMS channels run at 165MHz. HDMI-B uses three at 330MHz. Saying they're the same is like suggesting that ten 100Mbit ethernet connections are the same as a single gigabit connection. In other news, I...

    Using a TV as a computer monitor

    Type B HDMI allows for twice the video bandwidth of DVI. Type A can carry 8 192Khz audio signals in addition to the same video signals as DVI. By definition, therefore, HDMI has more bandwidth. It's not simply DVI+S/PDIF.

    Using a TV as a computer monitor

    Um, not quite... HDMI has roughly a third more bandwidth and the audio signal isn't in S/PDIF format - it can theoretically carry 8 audio streams at up to 32bit/192Khz each.

    Theatre Intercom Project

    Hi All, I was just wondering whether any of you electronics whizzes could possibly help me with a little project I'm working on...? I'm trying to construct a four station push-to-talk intercom for use in a theatre. It needs to be cheap so I'll try to use standard PC headsets with two 3.5mm...

    PC100

    PC66/100/133 are all interchangable. They will run at the speed of the slowest module but PC133 is quite happy being down-clocked.

    how do you figure out the speed of amd

    Oh, and AMDs scheme is based on a Athlon XP Thunderbird running at the same clock, not a P4.
