    Hybrid SLI certified PSUs? (Hybrid power)

    Hi, I've been wating for hybrid SLI motherboards with intel socket LGA775 to arrive for quite some time - and now it seems the time is near. Only problem now is that in order to have hybrid power working, a system will require a hybrid SLI certified PSU :/ ... I've won a coolermaster 1kW...

    but u think that its illigal then... hmmm - im not so sure it is - let me point out again that no legal notices are displayed in the video material or on the website im downloading the vids from. I think the legal notices would be part of the trailer if there was meant to be any sharing...

    Sharing Movie trailers - it isnt illegal is it?

    I dont know - i guess copyright isnt really what sharing the material is about. I've downloaded the trailers from http://www.drfoster.f2s.com/trailers_b.shtml and just want to know if its ok to further distribute the trailer-vids. Im guessing its ok since movie-producing companies will want...

    Sharing Movie trailers - it isnt illegal is it?

    Hi I was wondering if I am correct in assuming that sharing movie trailers is NOT illegal. I've seen no copyright msgs in any of the trailers I've been looking at, so would I be correct in assuming that I could upload trailers to my website without any legal issues? Thx

    What 32" or 37" TV should I get to use as PC monitor?

    Hi I've been wating for a couple of years for a purchase of a big screen and it seems now is a good time to buy. My biggest concern in the past has been response-time - i dont want any lag and many monitors that has been sold the last couple of years has had issues, but now it seems most...

    Are u comparing it to a CRT monitor as u play? Im using an old 19" xerox monitor that really isnt anything special, and I cant tell the difference in black tones from my crt monitor (i run a dual monitor setup) - perhaps the maps are just made very dimm?...

    Looking for a PSU with high power effeciency @ 150W

    Hi Im planning to build a new system once hybrid SLI hits the streets. Running with a passive GFX card and a 90W TDP CPU (or such) should result in a 130-150W idle power consumption (or something like that) so I'd like a PSU that has around 80% effeciency at those 150W... The PC Power &...

    Got a Dell 2707WFP & a Viewsonic VX2835WM For Testing

    I've read in some user reviews that the hum issue can b solved by just turning down the volume of the speakers - if ur not using them ofc - can u confirm this? to pitbull46: U should try buying the Hanns-G 27.5" from germany - its basicly the same panel just another manufacturer, and then its...

    Got a Dell 2707WFP & a Viewsonic VX2835WM For Testing

    u could try testing response time with test tools like this one http://www.vanity.dk/tft/monitorTest_scale.html - there is a dropdown menu at the top of the screen - choose trailing. the difference in responsce time is often very noticeable when u have a test-app like this one, that has values u...

    Help me spend my 1.3k wisely

    i am ofc aware that the resolution is static and doesnt change - ever... what im arguing is that there are boundries to what a human eye can percieve.... looking at two 40" tv's from 2.2 meters distance or more, one running 1920x1080 and one running 1366x768, the human eye cannot tell the...

    Help me spend my 1.3k wisely

    what ur saying here makes no sence... there are charts for what pixelsize the human eye can percieve - if ur looking at a 32" TV from 1.4 meters or more away, u wont b gaining anything from a res higher than 1920x1080... heres a test tool that help define res vs. viewing distances -...

    Got a Dell 2707WFP & a Viewsonic VX2835WM For Testing

    ye i hate that hdcp protection aswell - its only purpose is to make more money through licences :( - i wouldnt list it as a con though... could u perhaps try to describe the viewing angles? im guessing that pictures from ur camera wont be worth much, so just tell me what u think :D

    Got a Dell 2707WFP & a Viewsonic VX2835WM For Testing

    I found this brand new review of the viewsonic - and its pretty thorough aswell http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1697,2175175,00.asp it only gets a 6 out of ten - and i think thats mostly cause the guy reviewing it has the mindset that all monitors should be near perfect in image.... Im...
