Intel 4210Y HEVC support

Hi, I'm in the market for a new HTPC, and I have to say I really want the Zotac CI 540: http://anandtech.com/show/8665/zotac-zbox-ci540-nano-review-a-fanless-haswelly-minipc/5 I read the review, and I know that generally speaking Intel GPU do provide HEVC support these days. I want to...

Recent HT/Non-HT benchmarks

Can anyone point me to recent benchmarks does in the old question of: "To turn HT on or off"? I'm still used to the old way of thinking that for 100% Computation CPU jobs, there's nothing to get from HT. Is this still true?

Recommendations for a ~$200 Z87 MotherBoard

Looking for a quick recommendation for a $200 Z87 motherboard. Don't care so much about wireless features, but about reliability/stability, and extendability (ports/pcie slots etc.). Can go a bit higher up to $240 if there's a killer feature worth it.. Overclocking matter to some extent...

Haswell 4770 vs. 4770k

Just to avoid mis-conceptions. the K variant is missing VT-d, not VT-x. VT-d is used for more efficient I/O + Direct H/W Access. I doubt that standard virtualization products for desktops use it much.

Haswell 4770 vs. 4770k

Sorry you feel it is useless, Much like @Edrick, I'm very interested in FMA + TSX specifically. This build is for my home desktop, which is used 50%/50% for dev+work and for gaming. I don't replace this machine that much (my current one is a i7-860!), so I do care a bit about OC as it gives...

Haswell 4770 vs. 4770k

Thanks for the comments so far... I just wanted to make sure I'm not seeing some gross intel error on their website or something. It appears I'm not imagining. Now, as for the 4770 non-K overclockability... I obviously assume it's not as nice, but is it completely crippled, or should I still...

Haswell 4770 vs. 4770k

Hi, Here, in Intel's own coparison: http://ark.intel.com/compare/75123,75122 You can see that while the K is 0.1 Ghz faster, it's missing: vPro VT-d Trusted Execution TSX-NI Is this real? Seems very weird... Can anyone comment on this?

RMMA Replacements / Source Code

Hi, I'm trying to use RMMA (RightMark Memory Analyzer) as a course tool for students talking about low-level cache behavior etc. http://cpu.rightmark.org/products/rmma.shtml I've "solved" the problem of having an unsigned rtcore64.sys file and rmma.exe does indeed launch... However, my...

Here's the youtube video showing how I do the test on Windows 8 and the fact that it works: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqQuWKnszog&feature=youtu.be

RAID0 trim and SRT seems possible on 6-series and 5-Series

Hi guys, specifically Dufus and Fernando... Apparently it was indeed working all along. The thing I missed was that since I was using Windows 8, the TRIM isn't triggered as immediately as one would hope but seems to be rather delayed. What I did to trigger it was run the defrag tool. The...

RAID0 trim and SRT seems possible on 6-series and 5-Series

I did: mountvol x: /d diskpart: select volume 3 offline volume online volume mountvol x: ... Didn't seem to matter... The question I have is: is there a more "accurate" trim tool that can return a value from the controller explaining what happened?

RAID0 trim and SRT seems possible on 6-series and 5-Series

I thought about rebooting, and have indeed done it, but the same sector got overwritten by some NTFS data structure (Starts with INDX which I remember to be an NTFS stream). I'll try again...

RAID0 trim and SRT seems possible on 6-series and 5-Series

I've re-created the RAID array. This time the RST wizard recomended a stripe-size of 16KB (previously it was 128KB). So I accepted as it seemed more relevant for a boot drive with many small files. The test didn't go any better apparently: http://imgur.com/L1NWH The same sector remained...

OK, so far no good. I've updated the OROM... Here are complementary screenshots: Before (System Report): http://imgur.com/uWqJm,FLTPH,LRTB2,fkQOb,9BvGt,bPC07#0 Before Deleting with the old OROM: http://imgur.com/uWqJm,FLTPH,LRTB2,fkQOb,9BvGt,bPC07#2 After Deleting with the old OROM...

Thanks.. I'll do it in a few hours and report afterwards.. I have just created the raid-0 so I will attempt with and without raid recreation... Unfortunately I have forgotten my USB doks at work so it will take me a few hours before getting to this...

Hi @fernando, I've just read up this whole thread, downloaded the MMTool, and moded my bios file for my P7P55D asus mothboard per the instructions here with the file you generated for Sata ID 3B25 from here... I naturally tested my sata id and it was indeed 3B25 on the original OROM...

Average Voltage for OC's 6600 (per MHz)

Hi, I want to try and "map" the vCore people had to configure to get a working (preferably stable) O/C. I realize that the tem stable is controversial since just about every other forum member has his/her own idea of stability, but still... I also realize that vDroop changes the whole...
