For future comparison or if you want to compare different sized screens try using the utility at displaywars.com
Here are the results after plugging in the screen sizes and using the drop down menu for aspect ratio:
17" 5:4 vs. 22" 16:9
These results are assuming both monitors are LCD...
I tried my LGA 771 to 775 modded Intel Xeon X5460 (equivalent to a Core 2 Quad QX9750 Yorkfield). The results were a little better than I was expecting but not by much. I threw in a few CPU-Z benchmarks at the end. Modern CPUs are about twice as fast in single threaded performance.
Intel Xeon...
I have another result, this time with a stock 8700k with default DDR4-2133 speed and timings and again with XMP DDR4-3600 speed and timings. Got a performance boost of about 9%. I only changed it by applying XMP settings on my Asus ROG Strix Z370-I.
I'm not sure if it changed any CPU settings...
I would like to enter for every prize package. Every package contains parts that are far better/faster than what I am currently using (Core 2 from 2007). If I win a mobo/cpu combo I plan on passing my computer to my parents who are still using a Pentium 4 2.2GHz.
Either video card would be a...
I'm new to SSDs. I've never used one before and am quite excited to try one out finally.
I just received a used 80GB Intel SSD 320 Series from an eBay auction. Seller said it was tested good, however I think there's a problem with it. I have it installed into a Lenovo X200 Thinkpad. In BIOS...
I'm fixing up a Lenovo X200 notebook and want to install a 2.5" SSD. I'll be limited by the SATA 2 interface and I'm not really concerned about speed. I want to use an SSD so I don't need to worry about mechanical failure of moving parts in a spindle drive when I have the notebook bouncing...
Just to note, IBM Thinkpads are picky about what mini PCI cards are installed. They are locked so that they can only use IBM approved mini PCI cards. It's a bit more advanced, but you can get around this by using a hacked BIOS.
I'm not sure how current the following link is, but it details...
Looking for a male 25-pin (RS232 DB25) serial cable to 9-pin (DB9) female cable or any related adapters. A regular 9-pin serial cable would be handy too. Thanks!
I still use WinAmp 2.8 for my mp3's. I use an old Packard Bell serial remote control to control volume, tracks, etc.
I use WinLirc so that my computer can recognize and map the buttons on the remote. Then I have WinAmp use the gen_ir plugin (found on the WinLirc page, search for WinAmp) to...
I remember trying a demo of it on a P233 w/32MB RAM with a crappy S3 ViRGE something and it brought the machine to its knees. From what I remember of the game, the developers were trying to implement too many revolutionary ideas at once. The AI for the dinosaurs were supposed to have moods so...
