    Quadro K4000 impressions

    For those who don't want to drop over a thousand bucks on a rebadged GTX part and aren't dependent on enterprise support/certifications/corporate infrastructure/whatever, you might be interested in this. Unlike some previous generations' Quadro unlock mods, this one appears to operate with no...

    Steam just downloaded a sizable patch...

    There are a lot of people selling their AMD "Never Settle" GPU game bundle codes on eBay for around $20, which usually include Bioshock Infinite, Crysis 3, Far Cry 3, and/or Tomb Raider, maybe a couple others. That's probably still going to be the cheapest way of getting any of those...

    [DEAD]Gamefly Bethesda Sale

    I grabbed Dragonborn and it made me download and install their silly client simply to retrieve the Steam code (which it wouldn't even let me copy/paste-- had to retype it). Pretty lame setup. Just a heads up.

    Suggestions on finding notebooks capable of driving a 30" display

    It's definitely only an issue with DP -> DL-DVI (2560*) but the 30" Apple display the OP mentioned only has a DL-DVI connection.

    Suggestions on finding notebooks capable of driving a 30" display

    Minor warning on the displayport-- for some unknown reason, not all displayports will work properly with the active displayport->DL-DVI adapter that you'll need in order to hook up the 30" display. After going through a couple laptops trying to find one that would work with the adapter (but...

    2560x1600 gaming resolution - need system upgrade

    6950 (flashed 6970) crossfire has been working consistently well for me A single card is adequate in some games, but you can't be sure until you try it. Since you only have a single slot, something like a 6990 would be the obvious choice, but it's overpriced and underclocked compared to a...

    Which SB motherboard with display port ?

    The ones on SB laptops do, so I'm assuming they haven't arbitrarily crippled the desktop variants for some reason. However, I can't I've personally seen it running 2560x off a Z68 board.

    Which SB motherboard with display port ?

    sandy bridge IGP doesn't support dual-link DVI; all of the motherboard DVI ports are single-link. this is why displayport is the only choice. =/

    Do I lose trim support on my intel ssd if I raid my samsung f3's?

    I have an SSD + 2 mech HDDs in RAID with it set to AHCI in the BIOS and the RAID configuration done from within Windows. Can I enable RAID in the BIOS without breaking anything?

    Quadro FX 3700 vs gaming

    the 3700 is an underclocked 8800GT, so you should be able to figure out how it'll perform by looking at 8800GT benchmarks and extrapolating from the clockspeed difference. It'll actually be a bit slower than that because of the lack of driver optimization but it should give you a good idea.

    System components for a CAD computer

    keep in mind that the video card has nothing to do with the rendering output; it's only for the view while you're working. the rendering itself is done by the CPU. unless you're using something strange like nvidia's gelato, you're very silly if you think an expensive video card will affect...

    which 12GB memory kit

    After going through all the prices on newegg, I found that it was substantially cheaper to get 3 sets of 2x2gb than any other combo leading to 12gb. I know that's not what you asked, but it might help =/ for what it's worth, going from 2x2gb to 6x2gb didn't affect my overclocking success in...

    Video card hacking - Make your GeForce a Quadro etc.

    It's been mostly locked out on newer nvidia cards (I've only seen a patch that unlocks direct3d for 3d studio max on 8800 series), but it's easy to do on ATI cards. There are rivatuner patch scripts to force the FireGL / FirePro drivers to run on normal Radeon cards up to the 4k series. You can...

    Need to order a new hard drive asap =/

    My main hard drive (a ~4 year old Samsung) has been slowly dying for many months. Somehow I've tolerated this for a while because there were more immediate things to deal with. However, at this point it's no longer acceptable if this computer randomly goes down. So, the time of buying the new...

    PC Power & Cooling Silencer 500 Watt $37.49AR AC + 4G Flash Drive @ Newegg

    I ordered this yesterday, and it came an hour ago and is feeding my computer now. So far, so good. The fan is quieter than the one on the CPU (i7 920 stock hs) so I have no complaints about noise, but I'm not putting it under much load.

    WoW - Quite intensive these days - CPU wise at least

    Here's my anecdotal report: I have an i7 920 running at normal speed and 4gb of memory. I was using my friend's 8800GTS (G92) for video. WoW settings are everything at max / 2X AA. A few days ago I got an 8600GTS (yes, 8600) for free and switched it in. Performance difference in WoW...

    Nvidia 8800 for the mac??

    If you flash a normal 8800GT (or most any G92) with the mac bios, it will work exactly the same as if you burned your money on the official apple version. The only problem is that some 8800GT have a smaller rom chip that can't hold the mac firmware. I think the EVGA models were confirmed to have...

    Best budget X58 board?

    The MSI works well and has been easy to overclock. 920 3.6ghz with intel heatsink, setting only vcore +.05 and PCI 37mhz lock. It only supports Crossfire unless you flash the bios for the SLI model, which causes stability problems, but it's pretty certain that a hacking the standard bios to...

    Refurbished:Intel SE7501CW2 Intel E7501 Socket 604 Server MB w/Dual Xeon 2.4GHz CPUs & Heat Sinks

    Isn't this basically 2 really slow P4 2.4ghz processors with really slow RAM? Why would you want to use this for a server over something like P35/Q6600 apart from the official "server" designation?

    Anybody else DISAPPOINTED by i7?

    They chose "i7" purely because of its appearance (the vertical line section of the i and the upper horizontal section of the 7 both pointing to the dot of the i, with the angled section of the 7 closing it off makes a nice icon). If they don't call lga1156 Core i7, I don't think it'll be any...

    Workstation Card for Professional-Class Imaging Workstation?

    The workstation-type cards will provide no benefit whatsoever for the software listed (and I use these programs constantly). Don't spend more than $50 on the video card. This would work ok; it's got 2x DVI out and 512mb of RAM which is potentially useful when you've got gigantic images. A...

    Is there any more information on Nehalem octo-core?

    I want 8-core because my primary purpose is 3D rendering and it's very optimized for multithreading. I'd like it if my system was able to beat or at least equal the 8 core * 3ghz Mac Pro workstations I use at school that are crippled by poor configuration, and it seems that overclocked i7 should...

    Is there any more information on Nehalem octo-core?

    Before the public really knew anything solid about Nehalem, it seemed that the general impression was that there were going to be 4 and 8 core (presumably MCM of quad) variants available (all with SMT). But now the only 8 core CPU I'm able to find any mention of is for Nehalem-EX quad-socket...

    Do LCDs Fry Your Eyes?

    I'm reading i can SLI 8800gt & 9800gt together?

    It sounds reasonable, but try to get a bios from a 65nm 9800gt, preferably from a 9800gt made by that same manufacturer. That should have the highest chance of success. If it doesn't work, it shouldn't be a problem to flash it back to the original bios since you've got a second card.

    Socket 1366 or 1160?

    Many of them don't, you'd have to be lucky and it's not something you can count on. As has been said, nothing will be legitimately upgradeable for 5 years and it's pointless to plan for that. However, the fact that you've been able to tolerate 5 year old technology up to now indicates that...

    Core i7 Question: Is the 920/965 actually the server version?

    1366 is in fact the server socket and the processors themselves are presumably identical to what will be officially marked as the server/Xeon versions.

    Most influential Graphic cards in history

    The 8800GT was actually closer to $300 when it came out. Everyone seems to forget how high the initial prices went from the huge demand. It had been out for quite a while before it got to the $200 range.

    Calling all old school tech guys

    Man! My first computer was a HeadStart 286 very similar to this. 12mhz CPU, 32mb hard drive, DOS 3.3. It was pretty awesome. I used it for a really long time, until some guy offered to upgrade it for me but was befuddled by its oldness (and this was probably around 15 years ago) and ended up...
