Seems autonomy is not something important in today's tech world.

The cheapest 7900gt is 389$CA... It's much more than 249$CA. But why BFG/evga are better???

Hi, Long time no see! I can't remember the last time I posted here!!! :) Here is my quick question, which 7600GT 256Megs would be the best buy (Canadian price) : ASUS (259$) BFG (289$) Leadtek (249$) MSI (249$) I will probably get the MSI. I'm satified with my current MSI 6600GT (it's not...

But wait... The 3500+ and the 3700+ don't use the same platform? If I were you, I would get a 3500+, because it's a S939 CPU. In the future, you will be able to change your CPU for an dual-core (Athlon 64 X2) or a higher PR single-core (Athlon 64). - GA-K8NF-9 / <b><font color=green>Athlon 64...

You should definetly get at least 1Gig of RAM if you Photoshop, play games and do 3dStudio stuff. - GA-K8NF-9 / <b><font color=green>Athlon 64 3200+</font color=green> @ 3800+</b> Infineon DDR400 (CL2.5) 2x512Megs <font color=green>GeForce 6600GT 128Megs</font color=green> <A...

You should check MBM5 Voltage readings. If they are within specs. you are safe. If you have huge spikes or too high or too low readings, you might consider getting a new PSU. The best you can do, is installing MBM5 right now, so you'll be able to compare temperature and voltages reading between...

I do! I often run Video encoding/transcoding while I play World Of WarCraft. I lower the encoding application priority and I can WoW very smoothly. No glitches, etc... The only problem I have is when Norton AV kick in, I have to ALT-TAB and pause it. But It happens rarely (since I scheduled NAV...

Sorry for the "old news" and thank you all for the tips! I'll probably install 78.03 over my current Omega... I impatiently wait for the next Omega release! Thanks once again! - GA-K8NF-9 / <b><font color=green>Athlon 64 3200+</font color=green> @ 3800+</b> Infineon DDR400 (CL2.5) 2x512Megs...

B: I think there is some Radeon 92xx that have PCI interface. But, these are comparable Radeon 8500 in terms of features/performance. - GA-K8NF-9 / <b><font color=green>Athlon 64 3200+</font color=green> @ 3800+</b> Infineon DDR400 (CL2.5) 2x512Megs <font color=green>GeForce 6600GT...

Have you tried with a different Catalyst release? - GA-K8NF-9 / <b><font color=green>Athlon 64 3200+</font color=green> @ 3800+</b> Infineon DDR400 (CL2.5) 2x512Megs <font color=green>GeForce 6600GT 128Megs</font color=green> <A HREF="http://www.getfirefox.com" target="_new">Get Firefox!</A>

It's for ATI "key shortcuts" processing. If you assign hotkeys to parameters, ATI needs this "service" to interpret those key input. If you don't use it, you can disable it. - GA-K8NF-9 / <b><font color=green>Athlon 64 3200+</font color=green> @ 3800+</b> Infineon DDR400 (CL2.5) 2x512Megs <font...

Ok, again nVidia got caught with optimisation. <A HREF="http://www.3dcenter.org/artikel/g70_flimmern/index2_e.php" target="_new">http://www.3dcenter.org/artikel/g70_flimmern/index2_e.php</A> I have a 6600GT, and I noticed this since day 1. But, I would like to find a good way to remove those...

I'm not an EXPERT in database. It's more a hobby, but I read a lot and help friends/co-worker build simple DB. I would recommend you to split your table. You could easily keep in your main table only the data related to the last months (based on your need). So, based on user input, if the...

If you are a "very-mobile user", which means for me that you will use your laptop anywhere on a daily basis, pick the one that will gives you the longest battery life and that is the lighest (probably the Dell). But, if you are a "casual-mobile user", which means that you move your laptop from...

The actual QUERY is not paralleled, but the SQL could analyse the query and separate it in multiple individual task. For example, if a query request to merge data from 2 table. The SQL server can open both table simultaneously by using sending the reading command to 2 different CPU/thread...
