I think the main point of my rumor is 1) performance similar to 7950; 2) exact release time. I don't think I heard of that four months ago.:rolleyes:

videocardz.com confirmed my rumor three days late;) http://videocardz.com/33859/nvidia-geforce-gtx-660-ti-to-be-released-on-august-16th

Good news for you.:D http://wccftech.com/amd-dropping-prices-hd-7970-hd-7950-hd-7870-16th-july/ Old Pricing: AMD Radeon HD7970 – $449 AMD Radeon HD7950 – $399 AMD Radeon HD7870 – $349 New Pricing: AMD Radeon HD7970 GHz Editon – $499 AMD Radeon HD7970 – $429...

Source is a highly reputable member of a Taiwanese forum. He claimed he learned this from a Taiwan Nvidia official. I will post more if he leaks more.

Performance similar to AMD HD7950 Release Date: 8/16 6pm Taiwan Time :cool:

wow. Are you Intel's hired gun?? GK110 is spec to have SP performance of 5.184TFLOPS and DP performance of 1.728TFLOPS. This is double the performance of Xeon Phi. Unless Intel sells it cheap, it is not going to work.

Unfortunately, I can't recommend others. Because either they are too slow to create 54GB ramdisk or they don't support NTFS:(

You should get DDR3-1600 sticks. Otherwise, you are not tapping your X79's full potential

8xCorsair Vengeance CMZ8GX3M1A1600C10 DDR3 1600MHz 8GB My ramdisk software is qsoft. I tried many. This one is the fastest and it supports NTFS. :cool:

Thanks for your reply. Seems like it is around $250 per pop. Sounds like a good deal.:) I thought about 32GB sticks too but looks like according to the spec, if you put them on the board, they can only run at 1066:(

I have 8x8GB RAM on my X79 board. I put 54GB of them to ramdisk for downloading stuff. :cool:

http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/motherboards/server-motherboards/server-board-s2600cp.html But where can I find these single stick 16GB DDR3-1600 RAM though???:confused:

I have 64GB RAM on my Asus X79 Sabertooth but I noticed that occasionally the system can only detect 60GB RAM. I searched the web and find that increasing VCCSA and VTT Voltage can help. I increased both to 1.1V. It seems to make it happens less often but it is still there. Do you have...

I heard that some newer camcorder can record AVCHD video with xvColor such that when you play the video on an xvColor supported player and an xvColor compatible monitor/TV (e.g. Dell U2410), then you can see wide gamut video. My question is, given an AVCHD file (ie .MTS files). How can I tell...

looks like u r right. currently there are no PS3 game supports xvYCC but future games might support. Blu-ray by definition doesn't support xvYCC. But it seems like if your AVCHD video has wide gamut, then it might be able to make a difference...

I am currently using Dell U2410 for my PS3. I heard that U2410 can display 1.07B colors. How do I setup PS3 and U2410 to take advantage of that? Thanks!

I just got my U2410. I have a PS3 and a HDMI 1.3 cable. How do I get the best color (supposedly the 1.07B colors) from my new toy? Thanks a lot!

Ivy Bridge E is rumored to use the same 2011 socket as SBE:)

Not sure why you guys are arguing with each other. U2412M and U2410 are in different monitor genre. There is no point to compare the two. It is like comparing U2410 with the true 10-bit monitors. For me though, I would now go for a used U2410 or the Asus P246Q

None of the U2412HM news are official. But there is an official driver for U2412M.

well, at least we can all agree that U2412M driver exists. But nothing official about U2412HM at all. So U2412M is much more real than U2412HM

why? please elaborate

wow 16:10 I am sold :)

I agree. U2412HM is just a rumor. U2412M is more real. If there are any updates to U2412M, I will bump my thread up. :cool:

Aspect ratio doesn't bother me much for PC use But for tablet PC, I would prefer 16:10 because it fits comics better.:)

The official model is u2410m without h. I think we can still hope for 16:10

What happened to u2412m? The one with a driver out already?

http://dell-lab.posterous.com/dell-to-debut-new-ultrasharp-u2412-lcd wonder what the spec will be....;)

I find that both Supermicro and Intel claim that with Xeon 5600-series CPUs, they can support two DIMMs per channel both running at 1333MHz. But Tyan says they only support two DIMMs per channel both running at 1066MHz. So I wrote an email to Tyan to ask them why this is so. They replied that...

It appears to me that Linux can only treat ICH10R as a SATA controller but can't use to RAID. Is that true?

I am using the drives for CPU and memory intensive computation that can take days. That's why always on ability provided by RAID is desirable. Of course I will also backup my data periodically. In the beginning 2TB from RAID10 should be enough. When I need more than 2TB, then I can switch to...

So why not RAID10 over RAID1??? I think the advantage of RAID1 over RAID10 is that you can still have half of the data if one drive and one mirror die. But in RAID10 if that happens, then the whole thing is gone. But then RAID1 is slower than RAID10

Isn't raid10 supposedly much simpler??? Even HBAs support RAID10. RAID1 uses the same space as RAID10, so why not use RAID10 when I can because RAID10 is faster?

Well, US$450 for four 2TB Hitachi drives. That should be enough for RAID10. I think this solution is cheaper than buying a RAID card to run RAID5. It also has faster write speed And of course much better chance of recovering lost data.

OS and Apps can be reinstalled but the data are important. I don't trust onboard RAID5 and the Hitachi drives are cheap, so I went with RAID10. I mostly use my computer to do calculations. So it is not that costly if there is downtime due to drive failure in RAID0.

http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/249347-32-ich10r-raid-failure This Tom's HW thread seems to suggest that you can do RAID1 and RAID10 together. But it didn't say RAID0 and RAID10. Plus, it says RAID10 can only be done with four drives. So it seems to me it is likely that my setup should work.

I am planning to buy six SATA HDDs for my system. Two are WD Velociraptor 10k RPM 300GB and four are Hitachi 7200RPM 1TBs. I plan to put the two WDs in RAID0 for OS/Apps/Swap and the Hitachis in RAID10 for data. I am planning to use the onboard RAID on my Intel S5520SC board. I am running...

You mean limited by mobo chipset??? If you are talking about RAID card chipset, then since you have two RAID cards now, supposedly you can get double the throughput. By the way, that 2.875GB/s read rate limit is bogus. Tom's Hardware could get it to 3.4GB/s with RAID0 SSDs.

But what about a two 9260-8i + two SAS expander setup to serve 24 drives??? Can we have 8GB/s throughput???

PCIe 2.0 x8 can have 4GB/s But a 9260-8i's 8 ports can have at most 4.8GB/s, so the actual throughput is limited by PCIe to 4GB/s
