Exactly, they were talking about 500mbps in the original release... however that's for the entire satellite / region. So it's divided by how many people are using it.. Ultimately this is going to lead to 10mbps once they get 100 customers on there (I'm using the assumption that not everyone will...
My biggest issue is that they announced that you could get 1 TB of storage space for the Surface Pro however you can't order 1 TB of space on the Surface Book.
Seriously? I've had 1 TB of storage in my Macbook Pro for 2 years already! I'm not going to downgrade in storage space with a new...
Whoa whoa, we're talking about an 11 month baby. I think we can find common ground between being over-protective and being close enough to the baby to prevent it from being harmed. What if it was a soccer ball? Or a frisbee?
(They were in a park), I bet a random frisbee or even a baseball...
People like that are what keep me up at night! Hey, I fly drones all the time (hell, I'm an enthusiast and I have dedicated a rather large portion of time supporting drones however like I say in my drone intro, (https://sites.google.com/site/bestdronesreview/) it's just a matter of time before...
This makes perfect sense. My parents wouldn't know how to handle the files and would likely complain that it's taking a lot of time for the movie to 'load'.
The big misconception is that Netflix is doing well because it's legal.
It's not.
It's doing well because it's simple.
Netflix wins...
This isn't a car engine... it's electricity.
That means that if your components aren't drawing more power, your power supply shouldn't draw more power either. That's why some people measure power at the outlet.
To answer the OP's question though:
Having a single videocard would be better...
Still very cool, I applaud any advances in refrigeration... it's been what... a few decades since we've been doing the exact same thing?
If this could revolutionize the world the way L.E.D. lights have, I think we would all benefit!
While I don't want to get into an argument about any of this (just wanted to share my opinions), I'd like to point out that most people are stuck on the word track.
When you buy anything in a store (physical store), the person helping you frequently gets a commission / sale. Even in places...
Some people at Microsoft don't seem to understand the bigger picture... that the entire Internet is funded by advertisement.
Millions (ok, probably billions) is dedicated to creating free content on the web that users enjoy...
Based on tracking the users.
No advertisement... no great web...
Corsair always performs well and looks good in my computer at the same time. Performance is more important of course, especially when I'm overclocking my CPU 176%!
Really? I was *very* impressed. Been gaming for a long time and this is pretty mind blowing in terms of visual quality.
What stood out? Well, it was pretty much the amount of detail in everything: rocks, buildings, stairs, etc.
If you just look at it quickly, it looks like older demos...
Why are blogs suddenly bad?
True, blogs are usually written by a single individual and he can have opinions about a certain subject. Does that mean that all blogs are bad?
On the contrary, once you get to know a blogger, you begin to understand how he thinks and why he says the things he...
Hey Kyle, that was a really well done review. I loved that you let the numbers speak for themselves and I don't think anyone can argue with the tests that you did.
For those that are slightly attention deficient, it would be nice to be able to skip to the 'good parts', maybe having your...
Wow, great review, especially the fact that you mentioned the font tags & the <br>
I'm actually surprised that you checked that out !
The video is actually a temporary video that I put there in place, the owner should be speaking about his products shortly.
Yeah, the downloads page isn't...
Umm, that's a good question, as far as I know, the water cooling systems that they build are extremely resistant to long term use.
From the owner, they have been selling watercooling systems for a few years and have never had any issues with the watercooling system longevity.
Hey guys,
I usually build sites for rather boring industries like cookware... but I just finished designing a site for one of my customers and since he's producing highly overclocked watercooled gaming computers.
So I figured this would be the best place to get some feedback on the site...
Am I the only one that got the impression that the review was slightly biased?
Yes it was a decent review and I definitely enjoyed the comparison between the 280 and the 4870x2. In fact, I'd be more likely to purchase a 280GTX because I fear microstuttering.
However!
From the...
Hello, I'm an reader [H], computer repair tech, gaming enthusiast and full time geek/jock. Sometimes it's hard to pass up a good offer like this one, I'd probably have to keep the screen for 149$ if it lives up to it's expectations.
One the one hand, the avid gamer in me looks for the...
I have an EVGA 8800 GT 512 megs with a watercooled system... and the card is barely audible.
It only gets noisy at startup, when the fan goes full throttle... but that's normal, all fans turn at 100% when you startup.
2 seconds after, you can't hear a thing. I can't imagine the ATI card...
What the? Am I the only one that thinks that [H] got overly excited about these videocards?
Sure, the 3850 sounds decent and its better than the GTS. But nowadays, people are either buying a 8600 GT (at ~110-120$) OR an 8800 GT at 239$.
I'm looking at the costs of the ATI 3870 megs vs the...
So wait...........
You were waiting weeks for the NDA to be removed so you could post a biased gameplay article? Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh good thinking. That's like camping overnight at Wallmart the night before Xbox 360s were being released, waiting in a 4 hour linup, JUST so you can get...
I personally think this is one of the worse [H] reviews in a long time because it provides a magnified image of a product.
This article should of been called: "CPU scaling in high resolution gaming"
and NOT
Core Duo gaming
Why? For starters, the bottleneck is obviously the videocard...
Actually I was considering keeping all the images myself, and if they call me for service, I can quickly restore their system.
I read a LOT, and i'm leaning towards just using Ghost 2003 with burn to DVD.
am a system builder and I would like to make massive amounts of ghost images for all my customers, so that if something goes wrong, they can quickly restore their computer from 1-2 DVDs.
Now, what's the best way to do this ? How do big corporations like Dell/HP do it ?
I do not want to...
Choppy icon dragging seems like videocard drivers
Extra slow loading times are sometimes signs that the hard drive is failing (although I'd be surprised if that Seagate 250 was failing, those are very reliable)
Networking time-outs are also known to slow down systems, but I would have to...
yeah both of those already exist ;)
All i want is a Creative Fatality 1010 mouse with a decent optical engine (like the one in the MX 518).
I love the shape of the Fatality 1010 but it's unusable because as much as the first optical mice on the market (remember those?)
I agree that for $7, the ram upgrade is definately worth it. (it's much more than that in Canada)
And I'll check out that specific DFI board, I haven't used it which is why I didn't recommend it. (although I have used various DFI boards in the past)
Dang, nice o/c on that 4.1ghz, is that on air? And about the asus boards, yeah i know they are usually known as the leaders in motherboards but because of that I cannot tolerate them breaking as much as they do. Now for ECS, I would consider this normal since they are often the cheapest choice...
yeah same idea, American pricing ^^^
I bet it could be even cheaper if you didn't use Corsair ram (although Corsair is nice to have) Good case too, even though when building on a budget, I sometimes go cheaper.
I wouldn't use a BenQ DVD burner though (they break after 1 year!), nor the...
I know the topic of this post is deviating a bit...
But as a guy who's been fixing computers on a daily basis for 10+ years, A+ is a joke.
It's to the point where if people have an A+ certification, I dont hire them because I assume they didn't know shit about computers and they went to...
You know, by looking at your sig, you probably already know what to build him...
I think we know he'll end up with an FX-60
probably an X1900XT if he likes ATI
or 2 7900 GTX if he likes Nvidia
Raptor 150gig would be nice too...
it's not challenging when he has a budget of 3500+
heh
Prices are Canadian costs, which should be equivalent to American retail prices. I didn't provide any links but you could probably find everything listed here at NewEgg. If you're a Canadian, then try NCIX/Tigerdirect
The Intel way
