    Ikea desk gallery

    Preliminary setup. Have a cabinet I think I am going to move my networking stuff. You can't realy see my Seagate Central NAS or gigabit switch with my chromebox hacked with Windows 10 preview that I can remote into. Doesn't seem to have video acceleration though. Was going to use the Chromebox...

    Radeon 5670

    the 5770 is the card that is supposed to replace the 4770. the only thing that i didn't like about the review of the 5670 was that it seemed to get hot. hopefully they get that fixed because i think if they can it will be the perfect htpc card. you have to realize what the 5670 is all...

    Athlon II X4 Take 2

    I am really interested to see further reviews on this chip. Well any of the X4 Athlon II's. I have seen a couple different ones. In overclocking it seems that people are finding these chips to oc on air a lot better than the Phenom II's and they think that the L3 cache may hurt oc ability and...

    Who's planning an I5 Build?

    after reading a couple of reviews online it sounds like the P55 doesn't support 2 gpu's in crossfire or sli at 16x only at 8x if two are used. Is that true? that would kind of suck. anyone know for sure?

    What's the AMD stratagy for i5?

    yeah i have a friend that has a asus netbook with a nvidia 9300 in it and it can play full 1080p video if you use the right setup. mainly the 64bit version of mediaplayer classic with the right codecs that let you offload the video to the gpu. i have tech friends that used macbooks but now use...

    What's the AMD stratagy for i5?

    there really is no reason for more powerful cpu's in notebooks unless you are using gpu's that need the extra cpu power. and considering netbooks are taking over that atom is where intel is raking in the money. i don't think we will see a lot of i5's in notebooks. if anything it will probably be...

    What's the AMD stratagy for i5?

    well whats the point in a notebook? intel can make more money more than likely selling older tech and at the same time making the fab on the older stuff smaller and decreasing heat and power power. just as amd will be able to move to smaller fab on phenom II's if they wish to make them more...

    What's the AMD stratagy for i5?

    yeah but amd is working on tdp. there is already a 125W version of the most powerful amd quad, and they are starting to release 95W versions of some of the other higher end quads. Sure the intel processors are better for different things but for gaming i7 hasn't been as good as people where...

    What's the AMD stratagy for i5?

    googling intels roadmap makes it appear that intel will be going to 32nm but it appears that its only going to 32nm for dual cores and it looks to stay that way a while based on the roadmaps I saw. so it looks like AMD should be able to stay competitive especially considering the quads from amd...

    What's the AMD stratagy for i5?

    sure the i7 is faster at encoding and re-encoding. I wouldn't say it trounces the Phenom II though. Also most core i7 benchmarks are done using a triple channel setup making price go up a decent amount. Thats why I think the Phenom II will do very well against the core i5, the core i5 will use...

    What's the AMD stratagy for i5?

    i put this link up earlier but no one seemed to pay attention. core i7 against the Phenom II line is very comparable for gaming. And lets be honest most people buying desktop processors are going to be using them for gaming or a media pc. If they need something on more of a professional level...

    What's the AMD stratagy for i5?

    i think this article is pretty good. http://www.pureoverclock.com/review.php?id=794&page=13 i think if you gaming is what you are concerned with the phenom II processors are pretty great. if you are concerned with other things then i think its a different story, the i5's will be great. but to be...
