Does anyone have any further information on this issue raised by benchmarkreviews.com? Looks like SSDs don't run well with this controller. :(
I was looking at a P6X58D, but if the Marvell controller doesn't perform with SSDs what the point...
IT LOOKS LIKE we were right about Fermi being too big, too hot, and too late, Nvidia just castrated it to 448SPs. Even at that, it is a 225 watt part, slipping into the future.
The main point is from an Nvidia PDF first found here. On page 6, there are some interesting specs, 448 SPs, not 512...
I can't understand the attraction playing CoD on the xbox. The console port of CoD to the xbox seems lame;
Resolution 1024x600 No AA/AF filtering. (upscaling doesn't help much)
Controller is difficult to aim requiring "aim assist"
No free user created mods
No free user created maps
Multiplayer...

This technology looks promising,

I am running a nForce4 chipset MB and my boot drive is setup in a RAID 0 configuration on the nForce SATA controller, running the 6.86 drivers, WinXP Pro. What is the proper procedure to update the drivers? If I uninstall the current drivers, I don't think the box will boot because the RAID...

My neighbor's PC has been working for ~2 years with no issues. Last night it would not POST, no display and made 5 beeps, two short pause 3 short.
From the phoenix beep codes it appears to be CMOS read/write error, 1-1-3. Cleared CMOS in an attempt to resolve the problem but had no effect...
Just saw this at a CeBit 2008 post,

My CRT is starting to die, so I've been looking at LCDs since large CRTs are not made anymore :( Newegg and Tigerdirect do not list the NEC anymore. Could NEC be releasing a new 24" this spring? The 2490 is kinda dated. The new 3090 has a faster response time than the 24, 6ms GTG (12ms) vs 8ms...
The ASUS revision 2 of the A8N-SLI board is going to be a much better overclocker I have heard from my ASUS rep./ friend...
They have added more voltages and what not, and fixed some SLI bugs. Should give DFI a run for their money. But, they don't expect this board to be out for a lttle while...
I am looking at a laptop for visual studio C++ development and dvd viewing on the road and this looks too good to be true for $1100. The specs for the Tecra A3 are:

Last week a client had an old Abit BP6 start to crash on him. I had him examine the capacitors on the motherboard and he said they were leaking and bulging. The motherboard was purchased in April of 1999. He was able to get an RMA number form Abit online, and shipped the board to Abit. After...
I am building a HTPC/Gaming computer for a friend of mine and money is no object. He wants the fastest STABLE system money can buy. I am using an Intel P4EE instead of an AMD FX-53 because I feel Intel's chipset drivers are more stable than VIA's or AMD's. I may be wrong on this account but I...
