    [H] Quad Displays

    I'd rather have more displays with no frames between them: http://brighton.ncsa.uiuc.edu/~prajlich/wall/ For those two lazy to click: "The NCSA tiled display wall has gone through several iterations. Our newest configuration features a cluster of 40 high-end PCs with Nvidia GeForceFX 5900...

    OpenGL 1.5 vs 2.0?

    GL support is in the driver. You're probably looking at newegg. Their GL support thing is often wrong.

    3D animation I did

    I've used blender a while. It is somewhat difficult (at least was for me) getting used to the interface, but I've never really done any 3d modeling. At this point, I like it. If I could find a better solution, I would take it, but I really doubt that there is anything better than blender...

    Celebration may be premature!!!

Just cranked up my folding, I couldnt keep the room under 85F or so during the winter because of heat from my AXP1800+.

    Integrated Gigabyte LAN port not functioning....

    If this doesnt work, check your routes (start->run->cmd, type "route print" and hit enter) (esp. if you have multiple network connections, eg. wireless and wired cards). Make sure that the automagically generated routes are correct. If you need help with this, post the output of "route" up here.

    Is a brand name NIC important?

    I would recommend name brand cards (3com/intel). The only problem I've ever had was an issue with multiple single port 3com cards in a machine (3c905C-TXMs and a 3c595), and from what I understand, its a common issue. However, other than that one isse all of the 3com cards that I've had have...

    IT Resume Thread

    Things that I think mournblade missed: - Keep margins small. This helps keep the resume or CV down to one page. - When listing work experience vs. skills vs education, list the more impressive things first! Somebody should ask BobSutan to edit these into the first post, or maybe...

    Is Gigabit without a switch worth it?

    Gigabit is always auto xover if I remember right. I've always wondered why all 100mbit wasnt, though I have a few things that are auto xover (SMC switch at home, 3coms at old workplace).

    Far Cry + 9600XT + 1600x1200 = ???

    My 9600xt can run farcry at 16x12, and its wonderful to look at with textures etc turned up. However, I usually dont play at that. Depending on level, I will play at 10x7 or 12x9. Framerate in farcry really varies quite a bit depending on where you are, esp. at higher resolutions.

    whats the most powerful 120mm fan?

    I have ordered from sidewinder, and they were great. The messed up my order a bit, but they were in the process of moving their operation, and just overall had awesome customer service. Would definitely recommend (more than i would recommend newegg in fact).

    Comcast Upgrade Coming this weekend

    Thats great.... I really wish all cable internet companies would follow Comcast's example of how to provide for customers. Here in our area, base cable is (*drum roll and prepare floor for rofling*) 128/128 ($40/mo), with the upgraded cable being 512/128($50.mo). However, my dad called and...

    Don't use all caps unless you have to. So you recieve education from _and_ worked for PC Professor? I had to read that twice to get that. You might add "COMPTIA A+ Certified" to the bottom to clarify. A good start so far.

    Two questions (mainly for jmroberts, though anybody could answer): 1. Who's resume on here is the best so far? 2. How do you address a cover letter when you are using the same one for multiple jobs? I know this is kind of a strange question, but I'm applying for internships at Lockheed...

    Thanks for your time. I did the same thing, and I'm pretty puzzled. It was much worse before I defined margins on the table. See http://www.nmt.edu/~lbaker/cn/nav/cranenerds.css for more on that.

    Question for those in the know....

    This is normal. More pixels to render per frame, so it can do less frames per second. This is normal, not a power issue.
