I fnally made a jump from C2Q6600 -> Ryzen 2700X this weekend. The difference is more than noticeable of course. and I do enjoy it. I wonder if it will work for me another 11 years? Maybe longer? The progress in PC is not as quick as it used to be...
Are you sure your level of interest in something newer isn't RyZen ? [Where's my bitcoin Lisa?] Of course, it would be fun to upgrade just for the sake of it and getting back to good ol' times when I was building PCs for all friends and family, but I am beyond that (and older... :-? ). My point is ...
I am digging this post from 10 years ago (OMG! Time flys quick!) ...and this C2Q rig I was discussing (now upgraded with SSD, graphics and RAM) is still my primary PC!!! :o It is still more than adaqute for anything I throw at it. It is event fine with moderate gaming (yeah, I don't game much anymor...
Altough my old C2Q6600 rig (with only a few minor upgades) is doing surprisingly well after almost 10 years :o I am starting considering all new desktop which will hopefully keep working for the next couple of years. I while think I understand pros and cons going Ryzen (more cores, better value) or ...
It's EU regulation only, however it will impact US firm doing business in EU, too. That's still an open question from the previous effort when the territoriality went the other way: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Corp._v._United_States We'll know more this upcoming October term, but I woul...
God bless EU for GDPR. Once GDPR regulation enters EU's legal system in 2018 such breach would result with monstrous fines (up to 4% of global revenue). Got any sources or more info on this? Sure: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Data_Protection_Regulation It's EU regulation only, however it w...

Don't you guys see it? :roll: He will release BR original unedited version eventually. Just after he cash, BR special edition. Why to release one version When you can charge for three (DVD, BR special edition, BR original)? If he would now announce original version it would obviously hurt the sale...
Thank you all for the input (especially brynal - very useful post!) I think I am more inclined towards NAS. Now does any body have any experience with Drobo? http://www.drobo.com/products/drobo-fs.php It seems you can just throw any HDDs lying around (different sizes) and still have a redundancy!
I think it's a time to have some kind of NAS in my home network to accommodate two PCs I am using right now and I am counting on your advice which way should I go. Must have features: - Backup data - File sharing (including audio/video, iTunes server etc). - Quiet / low power / Power-on LAN (it's sm...
Step 3 is the problematic part. "By understanding my memory"... excuse me, what? Honestly, you're acting kind of rude. I wanted to genuinely help you, but your remarks are not motivating me to do that (to put it mildly). I pointed you to the resources, RTFM. If you are unwilling to get th...
This is how SuperMemo works: 1. Collect learning material: SuperMemo helps you create collections of facts that you would like to remember (vocabulary in your case). 2. Test your memory: SuperMemo tests your knowledge of individual facts and collects information about your memory. 3. Make smart rep...
I would like to highly recommend the http://www.supermemo.com method. I tested it on myself, and honestly, it's the single most important factor I have managed to learn English 8) . The method is a way to maximize the retention (amount of information you remember) and minimizing the effort in the sa...
AFAIK, it supports Core i9 and therefore it will give you more upgrade options in the future. It also supports faster RAMs. However, it's also significantly more expensive.I am not sure if it's a good deal at the moment...
Which Thermalright cooler? The TRUE? If that's the case you are not doing the cooler justice by staying with stock. ;) Thermalright 120 Ultra Extreme. Yeah, I know. 8) :lol: My priority was low noise, so far. What monitor do you have currently? May be spend the money on that first? As for WHS, I'm ...
Thank you for all your input! I definitively want to spend my money wisely, and you all seems to agree it's not worth it. I am staying with c2q6600 for now. I will look more closely on the OC option if does not make much impact on heat and noise. The roomy case and Thermalright cooler may finally pa...
Hi, Reading the news DDR2 may be getting more expensive soon: http://techreport.com/discussions.x/17733 I wonder, is the right time for upgrade my current rig: C2Q6600 4GB DDR2 800MHz (2x2G) NV 8800 GTS 512 P35 Gigabyte Mobo Path one: Keep it as long as possible in good I may add another 4GB, and up...
Makes you look just like a fanboy, you know... Point taken. :D Anyway, I was not following stats for a last a year or two, and I am really surprised the shift is so significant. It also kind of (surprisingly) invalidates accusation of killing of competition by bundling browser. Is MSIE that bad?
Hi, As far as I remember Firefox was winning some substantial gains in market share, especially here in Europe. Nevertheless I was surprised that Firefox is already the most popular browser in my country, Poland (counting together all version): 45.8% - Firefox 44.2% - MSIE See details at: http://www...
I'm no expert, but it seems obvious, that you may be able to detect active devices, which are emitting energy or distort signal in any way. I find hard to imagine detecting camera or device which listen to you wifi traffic.
How about: - 8086 - it was THE cpu - Zilog Z80 - oh... memories... memories... - 386 - 32 bit - Athlon 64 - 64 bit - Athlon X2 - multicore - Celeron 300A and Athlon XP-M - kings of overcloking
Hi Guys, I am planning buying digital camcoder this xmas. I am looking for Canon HV30 (for superior picture quality and full manual control), but I would like to check if I got the miniDV thing right... - Am I right I will be able to upload file to my PC via USB? How slow is this process? Real time ...
