    Intel is well ahead of nv/ati's 40 nm, so should they release 22nm Larrabee?

    Yes I don't get it either. Why dedicate capacity to a market with lower margins and more competition when you could use it for a higher margin market where you're not chasing somebody else?

    New to SSDs? Read this first before asking questions! (UPDATED 07/17/2011)

    If that response was directed at me, I was clearly using binary prefixes, so I'm not sure what you're getting at.

    Using USB sticks for backup on x64 systems.

    I would not trust these things for long term data retention. NAND memory isn't meant for that.

    New to SSDs? Read this first before asking questions! (UPDATED 07/17/2011)

    I recently purchased the 120GB X25-M and had the Windows 7 installer create and format a partition on it. I made the partition exactly 102400MiB (exactly 100GiB) and in Disk Management, it does list the drive as 100.0GiB. However in Explorer, the drive is listed as 99.9GiB and lo and behold...

    SweClockers: Geforce GTX 590 burns @ 772MHz & 1.025V

    Heh and what then if they say the same thing? Are you going to tell us it's all good, like what you said after the GTX 550 Ti launch?

    Buying low/mid-level card, need advice

    LOL. "Only" 42W more. I think perspective gets warped quite a bit if you hang around enthusiast forums like this. In this case "only 42W more" means "only 50% more".

    > 1GiB VRAM useful on a video card yet?

    I think it's only needed at 2560x1600 and higher but don't hold me to that.

    Are point and shoot cameras obsolete

    No. There are still reasons to have them. Compact cameras with large zoom ranges like Canon SX series or Panasonic ZS/TZ series with IS and 1080p movie recording for traveling. Compact cameras with fast lenses and larger sensors like Canon G series or Panasonic LX for serious pictures...

    Thinking about getting into real-estate photography

    I can't think of too many times one would ever need a super telephoto lens for real estate. Gear wise, I'd say forget the standard zooms. Get one of the ultra-wide zooms (e.g. 8-16, 10-x, 11-16) because 18mm on a crop body just won't get the job done. Stitching just isn't an option if you...

    What is the difference between 1080fx, 1080ps, and 1080fh recording modes?

    PS is the highest bit rate/lowest compression/best quality. FX is lower, FH is lower still. As always, shoot some videos to confirm. PS is also progressive and the Fx modes may be interlaced.

    Efficiency and its importance in gaming - updated GPU cost effectiveness list

    In the old days, the primary factor in most of my decisions was price/performance. Heat, noise, requirements and everything else be damned. Nowadays, efficiency is near the top of my list. Hey, I simply hate how warm the room with the computer gets in the summer months. Second is buying just...

    GTX 550...first ever graphics card to ship with a mixed memory configuration

    This whole exercise seems like it was concocted by a marketer. GTX name? Check. New 500-series model number? Check. Ti suffix? Check. 192-bit memory? Check. 1GB frame buffer? Check. A lot of checklist. Not a lot of result since none of the above seems to have added anything.

    How to find out what is holding me back from disconnecting an ext USB drive?

    Do you have any programs like browsers or instant messengers that could have open file handles from say opening/saving files on the drive? Oh and try Process Explorer.

    Is it just me or do we need a 3rd player in the GPU industry?

    So you're saying if there were a third player around, TSMC wouldn't have botched everything and stumbled over themselves for the past year (and next)?

    A word on Newegg's Hard Drive Packaging:

    Tbred B + SK-6?

    They look similar but SK7 uses 80mm versus 60mm for the SK6. Well that sounds good enough for me. I'll give it a shot but if my chip gets cooked, it's on you. lol Thanks.

    Tbred B + SK-6?

    I have an older SK-6 heatsink which has worked fine on my Thunderbird. Just picked up a 1800+ Thoroughbred B chip and I was wondering if the SK-6 is up to the task of cooling it? (and maybe a little bit of overclocking?)

    Man arrested for wearing T-shirt

    Why do people always paint issues into black and white? That's a false dilemma fallacy... What is legal would depend on specific laws. A mall is not strictly private property, it's publically-used private property. Some jurisdictions give mall owners the absolute right to toss whomever they...

    After installing Photoshop 7 on one of my machines, my JPEG file icons don't show properly in Explorer anymore!

    killer rechargeable NiMH1800mAH batteries Deal---Flaming Hot

    Between a brand name battery and a generic battery of the same "rated" label capacity, the brand name battery in general has a "truer" mah rating than the generic ones (different manuf. testing criteria etc). Batteries lose a tiny bit of capacity after each recharge cycle. How much depends on...

    Trying to decide to get Morrowind on the PC or X-Box - Is Morrowind a good enough game to buy an Xbox for?

    The PC version is more expandable than the Xbox version. I guess that would qualify the PC version as being better (graphics aside). As for the Xbox, if there's nothing on it that appeals to you, then by all means skip it until there is.

    Need basic photo editing software, and ???'s on archiving scanned images.

    Well if you really really want the highest resolution, then perhaps you should go looking for the negatives. If the negatives are still in good condition, then you may want to consider renting a film scanner (they are expensive to buy). These things scan in entire rolls and spit out images that...

    Unfortunately I do not have a choice in this. It's for a class I'm taking at the moment and the prof calls for using the Borland conio.h (not the VC++ one) so MSDN is out.

    I must be the only one who thinks Doom ]|[ isn't anything special?

    Was it even playable? Have they finally made a demo? I think it was at E3 that Doom III won all these awards when all that was shown was a god damn video! As far as I'm concerned, if it doesn't play like the original Doom and plays more like Quake, then I'm not getting it. Nevermind that I only...
