"more love" = ???
No one seems to want to say WHY the H170 is better. If I won't use all the PCIe lanes on an H110 and I'm not overclocking, what difference will I see? Is it just the higher number?
What is actually crippled and how does it affect performance? I've read the spec sheet - seems like it supports the RAM, SSD, single GPU and single monitor just fine.
Thanks for the other answers, very helpful.
Due to some unique circumstances, I only have a choice between H110 and Z170. The Z170 option is £100 more. What are the problems with H110?
Hi, does the below build look ok? I also have some questions below.
PCPartPicker part list
CPU: Intel Core i5-6600 3.3GHz Quad-Core Processor (£199.98 @ Amazon UK)
Motherboard: Asus H110M-A Micro ATX LGA1151 Motherboard (£59.99 @ Amazon UK)
Memory: Kingston HyperX Fury Black 16GB (2 x 8GB)...
Thanks.
Is hyper-threading worth the cost difference?
About the tiny improvement from dual channel, some articles say 0%, no difference, and some say 15% or even more. I'm constrained as to the supplier I can use and there is a difference in price there unfortunately.
I'm building a PC purely for application and database development (Visual Studio/SQL Server) and I have some questions.
1. Does it make any difference if I have hyperthreading? It's $100 more for the same architecture/clock speed quad-core but with hyperthreading.
2. For these workloads...
Thanks for the warning. If it does I will just send it back (Assuming I get an invite). The UK has good consumer protection laws for goods ordered online.
Budget is under £400.
It's not resolution I'm looking for but density. Would be happy to get a 3.x" phone with sub-HD resolution.
I'm thinking about just getting a 2013 Moto G, or 2013 Nexus 5 as you say. I find it unbelievable that there aren't any 2014 replacements with 4.x" screens.
New to Android. I intended to pick up a Moto G, but the new one has lower pixel density which I can't accept.
What other midrange phones are out or are coming out within a few months? I would have thought a year after the Moto G was released there would be some competition from the other...
I'll use PM, thanks Bubbaleone.
C1, there's too many complex steps for me to remove the hard drive and particularly the SSD. There's a decent chance I'd break it altogether.
I've already backed up, yes.
I don't expect help on the issue, and this does not have a recovery partition (and in fact this is certainly a hardware problem that will not go away after doing that)
Yeah I thought so. That's probably OK though unless they actually try and recover it.
It costs $5..
I have a laptop with an SSD (primary) and HDD that I want formatted.
I'm sending a laptop back for repair and I want the disks to be formatted before I do so. It overheats within ~2 minutes of turning on with a ungodly loud system beep and crash.
This isn't enough time to tell if the disks...
Charlie's so pissed.
"So #MacRumors just did the sleaziest thing I can think of. They bought a student subscription then reposted the info on their site.
And #Macrumors violated our terms of service, and screwed all of you. Why? You will find out soon, but unfortunately you all lose.
From now...
What? If a company was only worth its annual earnings, people would buy it for a year and a half, make back their investment and a half, buy something bigger, repeat. It has to be high enough so that you'd need to own the company for 5-10 years to make back its price and thus have to plan for...
He said directly that he doesn't pay sources for information. He wouldn't tell me why his sources tell him anything though.
Also your quote is above the 50th percentile in support for posts about him, because you do think he has actual sources with real info occasionally.
Not yourself, because as you say you wouldn't pay the $100. If you've noticed, no real info is without a paywall on his site now (wasn't true when the wall first started).
It's like if Snowden was selling proof to any world embassy who could pay, that the US was spying on them.
from the Anandtech article:
We expect them to replace the existing FX-8350 and FX-8320 eventually,
most likely the FX-9590 will be close to the $200 mark.
Worst-case, I'd expect TDP to be 135W.
Um, what? Is this really replacing the current FX parts? That price and TDP seem like they need...
That would be accurate... if America didn't spend as much as Europe per capita on social programs, especially healthcare. Emergency medicine costs far more than preventative, and things via your medical system are very overpriced. America also has a higher percentage of state vs private...
Charlie went paywall because other sites like BSN were 'stealing' his news without attribution.
And now he steals BSN's news without attribution and puts part of it behind his paywall.
The irony. I can't.
OK can we just stop with the threads every time he predicts doom for a company? None of the doom has yet come to pass (on Nvidia, AMD, Intel graphics or Microsoft)
I used to when JF was there. It was much less crazy than you'd think. People wanted AMD to succeed and would discuss any positive news about Bulldozer that might have existed, but all but a few posters would listen to logic and benches.
JF gave out a lot of accurate info and helped to keep...
Actual power consumption will be a lot closer; 65W is a more of a guarantee of lower power than anything special about the chip. If you downclocked the higher one it would be within 65W most likely.
None of what you listed would be something "Average Joe" does. People use their laptops for pretty much what a tablet does: internet, email, viewing photos and videos, and music. Content creation or high-end gaming remains niche and PCs will still exist for those people.
The tablet market shows...
I've ordered an S2.
My brother got his phone today, of the small size I thought I wanted, and it was really too small to comfortably operate as a handheld computer.
I did look seriously at the Lumia, I have no objection to WP7 but yeah it's still too highly priced.
I can't see official confirmation for Ace2, only a mention in a leaked video with no release date. Don't want to buy and then they U-turn (this happened to Xperia Play).
Thanks everyone for...
I gave up and I will wait for something small, dual-core, ICS, >4GB of storage or SD slot and about £20 ($30/month) in price.
Anything coming out in 2012 fit that description?
I would but I really do want something smaller than SGS1/2/Nexus S.
It looks like ICS support is rumoured for the Ace 2. You're right, the performance actually looks OK. The Ace 1 is supported by Cyanogen so hopefully the Ace 2 will be as well though of course it is different hardware.
It's 8GB memory with 4 available for data and 2 for apps. I plan to root it and delete applications so I can use 6+ for data. I won't use it for files.
I feel like I had to sacrifice something, and the choice was between low performance (Desire C, Galaxy Ace 2), high price (One V is actually £5...
