    GpuZ 12v sensor graph showing drops, is this normal?

    Decided to fire up boinc again and use the gpu, the graphs were solid for the first couple of minutes, but then this happened. So far the display hasn't frozen though.

    What to Expect from Desktop Graphics in 2011

    I wonder if it was in response to AMD's choice to fab the southern islands series at their spin off company Globalfoundries, or maybe the new fab choice is in response to TSMC wrecking plans. Either way I bet prices on the 6000 series are as cheap as they are because the 32nm premium isn't...

    GpuZ 12v sensor graph showing drops, is this normal?

    Does the graph on the sensor tab for the 12v and vddc normally show drops down to way low? the 'show min setting' on 12v shows 1.38v, the vdcc shoes 0.00, and the vddc current also show 0.00 for the min values. There is also an angular drop off in the graph sometimes. The problem is that the...

    What's the quietest 6870 or 6850 or with some mods

    Thanks for the link to that site. They got some good info. I think in any case to get the sound level I'm after it's going to take an aftermarket cooler with some silent but high cfm fans. These boards just aren't designed with acoustics in mind. Thanks

    I don't know about you guys but I can't stand the whirl of fans. I replaced all of the fans, including the psu's, with ultra low db fans. I also covered up any side fan ports that weren't in use to minimize sound leakage. This box is about as quite as it can get. Note that I have no where to put...

    Cisco 2651XM or 3640

    I've found myself with a not so obvious choice of whether to get a 2651XM or a 3640. I plan on buying a 4 or 8 port serial module along with several more serial wics to setup frame relay which will work in either model. I plan on adding one of these to a lab which I hope to be able to make use...

    College Degree Question...

    Having a good understanding with programming languages can really help when it comes to network security. I don't know what you know about penetration testing, but scripting is huge. Having a strong understanding of both programming and networking wont do you wrong. Like yourself I love...

    curious: since switch's ports have mac addresses....

    I gave the vlan1 interface on one of these 2900xl's an ip address and pung it. An arp -a revealed the IP's MAC. The MAC that the switch gave to the vlan1 interface was different than the mac assigned to the switchport the packets traveled over, fa0/6. I'm guessing the switch has a large pool of...

    curious: since switch's ports have mac addresses....

    ..as I understand that they do. As a frame moves across the switch, does it forward the frame leaving the source and destination mac address intact as they are or does the switch replace the frame's source mac with the mac address of the switch port that the frame is exiting the switch on...

    Do i need physics?

    As much time that Ive spent learning about computer systems, at this point I'm thinking about learning as deeply in another field just because I'm a geek like that. And for the sake of interest and curiosity.

    Cisco Catalyst 4003 problem

    I'll try watching for the post. I did hook up a 2610 just to make sure the connection was working, it works. But I'll watch for the post. It does have what looks like on board sdram, not a lot though. Thanks for your input.
