Hey Matt, I'm a new guy in town, but I've been a producer / musical director / piano-conductor for musical theatre for a little over 40 years, and have spent a few hours with headphones (but as few as possible!). When it comes to the ohm rating for headphones, you'll find that more is generally...

WAR STORY: I was the technology coordinator for a school district back in the mid 90s, and we had a very locked down network to prevent the lil' darlings from getting to babes4u.com. Well, I had an inventive teacher that wanted to use her Compuserve account while at school to go places our...

RE: India? Thanks for the observation, but no, I'm a Kentucky hillbilly, born and bred. I list Cincinnati as my city, because I'm located seven minutes from the CVG Int'l airport, and about five miles from the Reds/Bengals stadiums. The "biz" I referred to was my work back in the 90's when I...

Respected computer experts, In the last few days, I've seen quite a few threads regarding folks dredging up old video cards that have been stored away, some possibly with a burned capacitor smell to them. One gentleman suggested, "just put it on your motherboard, either it will work or it...

RE: Using all five fingers Hop on amazon and look for a used copy of Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing. That's a curriculum based course to teach the full "touch typing" method. I took "touch typing" in high school (back in nineteen-seventy - mumblemumblemumble..) on Underwood manual typewriters...

You might consider an Antec Quattro 750 or 1000. Rule of thumb: You can NEVER have too much headroom. I prefer to have a 2/1 headroom ratio. For my 1000W PSU, I try not to run over 700W. The more headroom you have the less electrical wear and tear on your cards and peripherals. The less...

WOW, nvidia quadro FX2000, that is one aged card (2003).. 128MB of DDR1 memory, and an AGP8x bus! Good luck with it! I understand keeping the old stuff, my MIDI cards that I use in my recording studio are MusicQuest 32M cards, that are ISA. You should see the fun I have getting a MOBO for...

Just a note: Your first link above is a spec sheet for nvidia quadro 2000, your second is nvidia quadro k2000, which is a little fancier card. That might make a difference in your choice. All my best, mm3

I have acquired a PNY nVidia M4000 (PCIe 3.0, 4 DP slots, 8GB, for four monitors, 120W) before I noticed (dummy me) that it was a PCIe 3.0 card, and I have a PCIe 2.0 mobo (ASUS M5A99X EVO - ver 1). Additional specs: AMD FX-8350, 32GB RAM (4x8) Crucial Ballistic Elite DDR3-2133, Current GPU...
