Hey guys! I was wondering how much my old system would go for? I'm replacing it with an Asus G73 lappy here are the specs of the box:
AMD Athlon FX-60 2.6Ghz 4x1GB OCZ Gold DDR400 ATI Radeon HD 4890 Asus A8R32-MVP MoBo Soundblaster Audigy2 ZS Platinum(with the Audigy Drive) 2x WD 74GB Raptor HDs 2x Seagate 750GB Barracuda 7200.11 HDs Asus DRW-1814BLT DVD writter ABS(tagan) BZ900 Modular PSU all stuffed in a LIAN LI PC-V1000BPLUSII
We have been trying to get Dell 780's to deploy, but it always says "A connection to deploy cannot be made". It loads up fine (Network Boot), initializes, comes up to the screen where I enter user/pass/domain. Once I enter user/pass/domain it gives me that error.
Now for the problem, no one in the dept. has training on it. Everyone that knew something about it has left so I have been trying to fiddle around with it trying to get it to work, but without any success.
30" in HD CRT TV Dual Tuner Tivo (non-HD) DVD player 7 yr A/V Receiver (big mounted speakers around the room) No 'media center' of any kind
I'm looking to add a Media Center to my setup, to have movies I rip. (I own them), or download stuff onto it, browse pics, music, etc.
So I have a budget of about 1500. I am trying to decide on what to do for a new home theater setup. I've never build a HTPC or used WMC, so I'm a bit unsure of its performance. I've heard drastically different things.
My big factors are power, footprint, and WAF. (Wife Acceptance Factor) My wife likes the ease of use of the Tivo. oh, I have a Windows 7 Prem license already for this, so thats a non factor.
So my choices:
Option 1: New HD DT Tivo (perhaps upgrade hard drive myself if needed) and lifetime subscription for unit. ($400-$600) New hdmi capable AV Receiver with drastically smaller speakers Small footprint media center like Dell Zino Keep DVD player, etc
Option 2: Buy/build a brand new HTPC (no recycled parts, all new) New hdmi capable AV Receiver with drastically smaller speakers Ceton 4 Tuner Cable Card reader ($400)
I'm looking for a decent mobo that can run a AMD x4 965 3.4 ghz, has integrated HDMI, and ddr2 memory slots (so i dont have to buy new ddr3). was looking at the Biostar TA790GXE 128M (about 99 US$). anyone have thoughts on this board, or something better. I'm in the begiining stages of a new rig
Hi all I am using a 3G usb modem for awhile now, and recently i decided to change the service provider (from vodaphone to another one), is there anyway to change the settings in modem instead of buy a new one ? theoretically i think if i can just clone a modem from the new provider to my old one it suppose to work, anyway to do that? thanks.
So has anyone here started buzzing with Google Buzz? Let me guess... I'll bet that Phonics Monkey started buzzing right when it was released!
I will say that it's interesting (though currently useless) to open up Google Maps on my mobile phone and see comments that people left at various locations. Perhaps we might start seeing useful comments once the dust settles... Maybe?
Unbelievable! It's like Microsoft did a survey of what features iPhone users would like the most, and cut those features from their own platform. If Windows Phone 7 truly is a locked down system which only allows installation of Microsoft-approved apps, then I'll view it with as much scorn as I do the iPhone.
So what's the consensus here about the Apple iPad? I've been hearing a lot of complaints about it: no camera, no multitasking, no changeable battery, no USB or SD ports, 4:3 aspect ratio...
I do think that tablets are going to gain in popularity as eBook readers, but Apple's attempt at it seems pretty sorry. There will certainly be some better tablets coming out this year.
Well, at least Pee-wee found a good use for the iPad.
Which one of these processors is better in speed and performance?
Intel® Core™ i7 920XM 2.0GHz with hyper threading (3.2GHz Turbo Mode, 8MB Cache) or Intel® Core™2 Extreme Quad QX9300 2.53GHz (12MB Cache, 1066MHz FSB) or Intel Pentium 4 3.4GHz Extreme Edition With Hyper Threading.
The core i7 is and extreme edition by the way. It has no FSB to deal with but the core 2 extreme quad has 12mb cache while the core i7 only has 8mb cache. On the other hand, the core i7 has hyper threading and 4 native cores on a single die as where the core 2 is seperated by a heat sink. also the core 2 has an over all higher clock speed.
I just need to know which one is faster in both speed and performance. And is the core i7 significantly faster than the core 2 extreme quad?
And does the core i7 clock all 4 of the processors to 3.2GHz when using Turbo Mode or just 1 or 2 of them?
Google has just pushed Chrome 4 to the stable channel. That means the new features such as bookmark sync and extensions are available to everyone. They have some really nice extensions, and I especially like the Official Google Dictionary extension.
Is the logitech mx revolution Model Number 931689-0403 the newest version of this mouse? The 2007 version? Because I noticed there is a 2006 version with model number 831869-0000. What is the difference between the 931689-0403 and the 831869-0000 models of this logitech mx revolution?
here are the specs of the box:
