I don't know if this is technical enough to be put in here, but anyway...
I dissected one of those shaking flashlights, and instead of using a capacitor to store charge, it uses this thing. I'm pretty sure that's not a capacitor since it doesn't even have any capacitance rating. Just "NT 473"...
Another note: you don't need to answer every question. Please feel free to answer however many you want.
(Yes, I'm one of the people in on this with BassBomb)
What "progression"? The drivers aren't even in chronological order. Especially that Oblivion picture. 7.6 was worse than 7.5; 7.7 was worse than 7.6. 7.9 finally brings a big improvement. What's there to like?
Unless you're just being sarcastic...
I've seen R600-based cards labeled as "R600 GT" and "R600 XL". On the surface, they both have the same clocks, so I don't know if they're the same cards just labeled differently. Where did I see these cards? I'm not going to say. They're both engineering samples. I also don't know how they...
Like people have already mentioned, I prefer sharp text over "smooth" text. First thing I do on any computer build is disable Cleartype or any kind of subpixel hinting. My monitor is also kinda crappy so any kind of smoothing, regardless of how good the algorithm is, will produce funny colors...
Athlon 64 Winchester era. That was a big deal because it was AMD's move to 90 nm and lots of people jumped on the AMD bandwagon at that time. That was my first time building and overclocking a computer, so I learned a great deal of stuff from that build. I'd say around 80% of the stuff I know...
I understand what you guys are saying. However, this whole discussion is not about whether you should upgrade to Vista or not. It's about the people who bash Vista. Most Vista bashers don't know what they're talking about. If you don't want to upgrade to Vista, fine. There's nothing wrong with...
Heh. I knew you were going to come back and say that. How fast your programs run after starting up is mostly dependent on hardware, and usually the hard drive speed. It's not something you can drastically improve with a new OS.
You're making it sound like Superfetch is a negative aspect of...
And XP looks like a nice version of 2000, right? And 2000 is just a "different" looking version of 98.
It's what's under the hood that matters. Vista is drastically different from XP. It runs faster and is already more stable. Memory management is also much improved. What do I like about...
The real question is: what purpose does the foam shim serve? Is it to prevent the heatsink from wobbling?
I don't think there would be any problems installing without the pad as long as you're careful.
I have VT enabled and it hasn't really affected my overclock. Some poeple disable it to take some stress off the CPU, regardless of how little that load might be.
I personally wouldn't invest in any DDR3 board right now. By the time you can actually "use" the DDR3 slots on the P35C-DS3R, the board is already obsolete along with the P35 chipset.
Not surprising at all. Vista simply isn't that demanding of hardware. My laptop is also running Aero with transparency using a GMA950. It's barely any more sluggish than no transparency.
The store bought laptops will most likely be MUCH faster after a clean format and install.
That's not...
What constitutes high-end? My laptop with a 1 GHz T5600 and 1 GB of memory runs Vista like butter. Don't tell me the average dual-core desktop can't handle it while my laptop in power saving mode can.
