  1. Hostility in the GPU Space?

    I would say the hostility in the GPU scene has always been there. When you have two big, popular rivals offering highly competitive products, there's always going to be degree of hostility. In terms of the GPU scene, I think the worst I've seen it was back in 2003, during the ATI Radeon 9xxx vs...
  2. 1 TB SSD $221.85 shipped Mushkin Enhanced Reactor MKNSSDRE1TB 2.5" 1TB SATA III

    Awesome deal. Will have to pick one up. Thanks for sharing this deal OP!
  3. Worst CPUs ever, now with poll!

    Hmm, the worst CPU ever? I'd probably have to say the Pentium 4 family, as competing processors released during that era were often preferable over Pentium 4 CPUs, especially when AMD released the Athlon 64 processors. I can sympathize. From 2004 - 2006, my main rig was running an...
  4. Athlon X4 615e/620e 45W; should remain in production today along with FX processors..

    The reason why FM2 motherboards don't have integrated GPUs is that Socket FM2 processors (APUs as AMD calls them) themselves have integrated GPUs. The FM2 APUs should regarded as a CPU/GPU combo, rather than just a CPU. With this in mind, the TDP rating of Socket FM2 should be considered as...
  5. Java 8 Update 45

    If you do any Android development and are using Android Studio or Eclipse, Java (the JDK) is needed. Outside of development purposes, I haven't seen much of a real need for Java.
  6. Just Benchmarked my 840 Evo. How did it do?

    It looks like he might be running under IDE/SATA mode rather than AHCI mode, as it lists his EVO as a ATA device. AHCI mode is better, especially for SSDs, as features like NCQ can increase throughput to a significant degree. EDIT: Never mind, just caught the msahci check.
  7. 3.5" HDD Caddy/Holder for Expansion Slots?

    Does anyone know if a 3.5" HDD caddy/rack exists for expansions slots? I know that these exist for the 2.5" HDD/SDD form factor, like StarTech's S25SLOTR: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...?EdpNo=5606151 The reason why I'm looking for one is that I'd like to add one more 3.5" HDD in the...
  8. The Remaining x86 License Holders

    I've noticed on VIA Technologies Wiki entry in that their x86 license appears to be expiring next year (the end of the 10 year agreement between Intel and VIA's settlement), unless they've extended their licensing agreement. While VIA hasn't been significant on the x86 front, it does bring up...
  9. How does VIA

    Very slow. Expect Pentium III/Atom speeds. Probably would be okay enough for light office duties or basic functionality that is not CPU intensive.
  10. If you wanted to illegally emigrate to another country, which would it be?

    North Korea, because Comrade Kim says it's a "Paradise on Earth", so it must be true. Jokes aside, the only time I would want to "illegally" emigrate is if the US falls to a devastating calamity and that would be to a friendly country far, far away. Perhaps New Zealand.
  11. Dell G914J 50 GB SSD @ Microcenter for $29.99

    I picked up one of these SSDs earlier today. The reps at Microcenter said these SSDs came in with this week's shipment and were generally clueless about these drives. I hooked up the Dell G914J SSD drive to a spare PC at work and ran CrystalDiskInfo and CrystalDiskMark to see what this drive...
  12. Dell G914J 50 GB SSD @ Microcenter for $29.99

    I'm not sure if this was posted already, but Microcenter is now selling Dell 50 GB SSD SATA2 drives for $29.99: http://www.microcenter.com/product/402049/G914J_50GB_SATA_30Gb-s_25_Internal_Solid_State_Drive_%28SSD%29 They seem to be rebranded Samsung drives.
  13. AMD 12.11 beta 7 drivers are up

    Does anyone know if the Netflix app for Windows 8 runs on these drivers? It runs fine on the last official Catalyst drivers, but it refuses to run on the last beta version (due to it being an unofficial/unsigned driver).
  14. AHH The Good Old Days Of Barton :)

    Barton, what memories. Especially the Mobile Athlon XP Bartons... man, those chips could overclock. Ran one at 2.6 GHz for a while, until I jumped to a Core 2 E6600.
  15. Stardock's Start Menu Replacement

    I've been using Start8 since the first beta came out. Start8 works extremely well as a Start Menu replacement, as it also has quite a few customization options to make Windows 8 a much more capable multi-tasking OS. Without any of these Start Menu replacements, I would have just stuck with...
  16. Windows 95 released 17 years ago

    Ah, Windows 95. This classic OS brings back a lot of early computing and PC gaming memories. The original Command & Conquer, Red Alert, Doom 1 & 2, SimCity 2000, Master of Orion II, and more. It's hard to imagine that it's 17 years old now... there are AT members here that are the same age as...
  17. Windows 8 on old PCs?

    Basically, with the processor requirements that Microsoft is imposing with Windows 8 (Physical Address Extension (PAE), NX Bit, and SSE2), that essentially means that the minimum requirements from both vendors are: AMD : AMD Athlon 64 (Starting from Q4 2003) Intel: Pentium 4 Prescott (Starting...
  18. Why didnt intel use HT on the QX series?

    It probably has something to do with the structure of the Core 2 architecture, being derived from the P6 architecture (Pentium Pro, Pentium II/III, Pentium M, Core). Pentium 4/D, with it's Netburst architecture was completely different from P6. If I recall from past memory, I believe it was...
  19. Why does P2P (uTorrent, Steam) cause mouse lag?

    Is your main connection over Wi-Fi by chance? You might be experiencing Wi-FI & Bluetooth interference, as they both occupy the 2.4 GHz range. I had something similar happen to me at my old apartment on my laptop (which was saturated with 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi networks). Whenever I was doing heavy...
  20. Which home server software?

    IIS is the built-in HTTP/FTP server in Windows Server. However, if it is too complicated to setup, a third party FTP server software like FileZilla Server or Serv-U would be easier to setup. If you're interested in streaming over LAN or web via HTTP, you might want to check out Subsonic. It is...
  21. Learning java/Android - my epic journey

    Watching this thread. I too, am a beginner Android programmer.
  22. [H] 1300mhz 7970 Versus GTX580

    Yup. Even the size of the Gigabyte PCB is smaller than the standard HD7970, measuring at 10.5" in length, despite Gigabyte's website listing it at 285mm (~11.2). Kyle of [H] confirmed this.
  23. Adobe Working on Sandboxed Flash Player for Firefox

    Adobe certainly took it's time. With Flash being sandboxed on Firefox, it'll kee exploits to it's own environment, instead of potentially compromising the entire computer.
  24. nVidia: "We expected more from the 7970"

    I wouldn't put too much faith into nVIDIA's statement about the HD 7970. After all, it's not the first time nVIDIA's made big remarks. Lest we forget, nVIDIA made a similar remarks about the FX 5800 series being superior to the Radeon 9700 Pro, a card that was out on the market for almost five...
  25. Need to update hardware after Win7 install

    To utilize Windows 7 Aero (which Windows 7 3D-based screensavers require), the minimum requirements is a DirectX 9 (and higher) supported graphics card; your GeForce 4 Ti4200 is DirectX 8.1. Your system supports AGP and PCI (not PCI Express / PCI-E) video cards, so you would need to get an AGP...
  26. Crucial’s M4 SSD is inherently faulty - AVOID

    Agreed. It sucks that you got a bad drive and that Crucial is deleting any negative posts on the M4 on their forums, but until I start hearing about mass failures (like that of OCZ's SSDs), I won't be making any negative conclusions about their SSDs.
  27. Which Windows Best For OLd Games

    The Sims 1 & it's expansion packs works on Windows Vista & 7 (32-Bit & 64-Bit), albeit with some adjustment. It works fine if you run the game in compatibility mode with Administrator rights or setting the security permissions on the Sims game folder to your account or 'Everyone'. I'm not sure...
  28. Kim Jong Il Confirmed Dead

    Because investors always jump after ridiculous rumors and it appears that the rumor currently floating around on the stock markets is that chaos in North Korea will ensue and create a conflict with surrounding countries, particularly South Korea. South Korea's KOSPI index dropped ~5% after...
  29. Price of RAM

    8 GB DDR3 DIMMs may decrease over time, but like others said, the supply and demand for 8 GB single DIMMs aren't nearly as great as the 2/4 GB DDR3 DIMMs. It'll probably be similar to the situation with the 4 GB DDR2 single DIMMs, where price remained high even though 2 GB DDR2 DIMMs were...
  30. can i run skyrim? (hope im in the right section)

    No matter how fast the CPU is, it still remains that the fact that the integrated GeForce 6150 is a slow dog and there is no way that BF3 should be able to run on it. GeForce 6150 is DX9 and I thought that BF3 only runs on cards with DX10 & DX11 hardware support? @MRcrispyyo: If you really did...
  31. P8Z68-V Pro slow to POST

    snuggles, a few people were having the same problem with their P8Z68-V Pro motherboards at the OC forums: http://www.overclockers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=680382 Apparently, the solution is to disable the "Full Screen Logo" option, along with setting the "Post Report" option to 1 sec...
  32. Windows Home Server v1.0 and 3TB drives not playing nice

    WHSv1 is not compatible with GPT & 2.1 TB+ HDDs out of the box. There is a way to get them to work, but it does involve some lengthy steps. Check this guide here...
  33. Windows 8 Dev Preview

    The ASUS EP121 slate should make a great testing platform for the Windows 8 preview. Downloading now!
  34. I miss Slot 1!

    Slot 1 brings back memories of my first PC upgrade ventures. So easy to install and no worries about accidentally breaking your processor. Slotket adapters were also fun to play around with as well. It was fun upgrading a 1998 Dell Dimension PC from a Pentium II 400 MHz to a Tualatin Celeron...
  35. Recommended eBook Software for Tablet PCs?

    Does anyone have any recommended eBook software for tablet PCs? I have an ASUS Eee Slate EP121 (great tablet IMO). I've tried calibre, which is excellent for managing and converting various eBook file formats, but the viewing options are quite basic. I've also tried MartView, which has a...
  36. You know you are old when...

    You know when you're old when everyone else in a bar/club/restaurant is a good five years (or more) younger than you.
  37. Top 10 Korean Songs of 2010

    Pop songs in the U.S., Japan, Korea, it's pretty much all the same, just manufactured to brainwash the tweens. However, there is one Korean group that I wouldn't mind watching (not for the music): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SwiSpudKWI Skip to 0:38. Damn fine legs. :o
  38. Anyone else remember the Windows 95 song?

    It's not like they would have dumped 32-bit compatibility entirely. The WoW64 compatibility layer (Windows on Windows, not World of Warcraft) works extremely well for 32-bit apps on 64-Bit Windows. The only problem would be legacy devices that only have 32-bit drivers available, although that...
  39. Running OSX in a VM?

    There has been some considerable progress on running OSX 10.6 in VMware and ESXi. An unlocker has been released for VMware Workstation in that you can use VMware's own wizard to create a VM profile easily, without having to edit the config files. There are also audio and 3D drivers available...
  40. Lenovo thinkpad with Mac OS!!!!

    I would think that Apple would have bigger fish to fry than one person violating the TOS by installing OSX on a non-Apple machine. The real problem is that it's an unsupported scenario (no turning to Apple for support when things go wrong) and whether you have moral issues about violating...
