It's been a while since I was up to date with computer parts. My current build runs off an e6600. Im thinking about taking a look at quad core for this one.
The machine is for a friend. Not much of a gamer, he's a musician and will be using it for recording. The machine needs to be snappy...
Vastly superior screen on the macbook pro?
I always thought that the one on the regular macbooks was fantastic. yah it does have some extra little perks but I think theyre things that many people won't even use. So its not so wise if you're a person whos not going to take advantage or have...
You don't need a mac to do that stuff. I am a mac and PC user and the mac doesnt really change things at all as far as design and coding. Actually, I prefer doing that stuff on my pc slightly more just because I'm used to it.
ONE feature of leopard os x that I REAAALLY love though is spaces...
COol.
I just grabbed 4 gigs of the mushkin ram off newegg. I cant even believe its only 60 bucks after the mail in rebate. Thats insane. I think I spent like well over 200 on 3 gigs pc6400 ram for my desktop build back then when e6600 chips came out.
BUUUUUT...... What I am REALLY trying to ask is...
Will I lose the snappiness of my OS if I am using 3gb?
I am just trying to figure out the validity of apples statement when they say to run the same size stick in each channel.
it wont be worth it to run 3gb if it makes my machine...
It is a 2.16 from the end of 2007. It's not compatible with 4gb. Apple claims it supports only 2gb but the unofficial truth is that it can run 3...
Sooo....
I can't run 4.
Again, based on my previous post, would you say I'd be better off with 2x1gb or 2gb+1gb? I will be able to have...
Well.. I do use EVERY bit of system performance for music production. It uses every ounce of ram and pushes the cpu to the max.
What do you guys think I should do after having heard that?
I am about to order some ram on newegg. I am looking at the mushkin sticks. I can get a 2gb stick and then add another 1gb later if I decide I need it
OR
I can get two 1gb sticks and leave it at that...
Apple recommends using the same sized modules for best performance though.
I am...
I'm running windows on w WD Sata and the rest of my files (media and such) are saved on my seagate IDE.
Often times I will go to click on my music folder and I get a message that the drive that the folder is on is unavailable AND it wont show up in my computer either until I restart my PC...
BTW, people seem to be happy with both on newegg. The mp970 has 5 stars on all 8 reviews. However CNET gave it a poor review and said it's image quality is not on par!?
I have learned that sometimes CNET do hire morons to do their reviews. I'm hoping that was the occasion on this one at...
On newegg the MP970 ends up not being much more with the 100 dollar rebate so price is not really a deciding factor.
The MAIN focus for me is QUALITY of print. I want very good quality printing.
Speed comes second. If I'm printing 100 pages and one printer does 100 a minute or so faster I...
I am a AT&T yahoo user. They set up my intenet so that I have to connect through their yahoo browser.
I want to be able to use IE and Firefox though. Also, I think this is affecting my ability to do certain things such as downloading album artwork via microsoft programs.
PLEASE HELP IF YOU...
I am just trying to figure out how to do this (for work purposes).
Please let me know the easiest way to run MAC os on my windows XP pc.
IE: programs, installation procedures, etc..
yah, there are a bunch on newegg. I wanted a portable one though so I can take it to any computer. Internal is kinda pointless IMO when you can just get portable which is small (fits in my pocket) and can be used on any system I bring it to (plug and play)
quick pic of transcend. Its realllly...
Cool, show me a good monitor that reads SDHC and xD's.
Actually, my transcend reader came in today and it's perfect. it actually reads and writes xD cards about 3 times faster than I've ever been able to.
AWESOME! Someone ol DP review told me about this http://www.dcareview.com/cardr...d-M3/Transcend-M3.html I ordered it right away after seeing the conclusion in that review. Just what I was looking for xD and SDHC which seems to be impossible to find combined. (I ordered it in black of course...
It doesnt give me the option to boot to ANY OS. And no, I never disconnected my XP drive. I simply ran a new install of vista over the old one because it was giving me problems. Never removed any drives....
The ONLY way I can boot to any OS is if I press f8 at start up. Then I can choose XP...
I was booting into XP fine until I installed Vista. Now every time I boot my computer I have to press F8 and select the hard drive that vista is located on. My bios (p5n-e sli mobo) does not allow me to select the boot order of my hard drives.
Anyway, I get a black blank screen if I do not...
thank you for the replys and good point about sdhc compatibility. I will definitely be using those cards.
What do you guys think about http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16820609240
super talent has a pretty stable reputation (as far as ram goes at least).
$12 shipped to me is...
I know this was a long time ago but I just got a TZ3 to compliment my f31fd! got a sweet deal that I couldnt pass up. Looks like if you're going to go with a compact combo, having these 2 is the best way to roll. best of the worlds :)
I was scanning ebay for a multi card reader. I need something for my xD, SD, and CF cards but I don't want to get stuck with junk.
Reliability, speed, and overall quality. i will spend the extra buck if it's worth it.
Anyone happy with theirs enough to recommend?
Yah I accidentally wrote 12mp when I meant to write 8 (which is still too high for a small sensor compact). Okay, drop it.
Like I said 3 times. Go to dpreview.com and type in the camera model. See what real people have to say. The pictures you linked to aren't anything special either. They're...
I agree, seeing a revamped f31 with 12x and wide lens would dominate. You know what's weird though, it seems like all the new cameras coming out are getting worse and worse. They keep adding features and stuff but the image quality is totally going downhill.
Actually, not sure if you know or...
Forum people like you are funny
I'm not basing sony at all! I would say the same thing about certain fuji models and probably the f50fd when the final production model is released. Does that mean I'm a fuji basher? (no, Fuji's f31fd is my favorite compact camera). I don't like that sony...
Whatever dude. that camera sucks. I don't know why you're defending it. I doubt you have any experience. I couldn't find a single decent shot taken with it. BTW, neither of the sites you mentioned are well recognized for accurate reviews. Especially the first one, and look at the first user...
BTW, it wasn't 1 person. The reviews of MANY were similar. I do trust photographers on DPreview. Many people there are highly skilled professionals with years of experience.
