Surely it's a pricing error, missing zero at the end? Kingston's US website has the same kit at $467.00.

I don't think that's what the poster meant - although the wording could have been clearer. Nobody expects older cards to support new DirectX features. But did reviewers and users expect Intel to add TRIM via a new firmware? Absolutely. You see, users are not expecting Intel to improve...
It's certainly not me. You brought up Microsoft comparison, so I am adding facts.
Windows XP SP2 was compiled with Microsoft's new VC++ 2005 optimizing compiler and had many performance fixes. This is true for other Microsoft products like SQL Server.
XP SP2 came out almost 3 years after XP...
I recently built a file server using AMD Athlon X2 5050E. It's a 65nm, 45W chip, so not the most latest or economical, but it is surprisingly efficient and cheap to buy. The entire system idles at 38 watts - measured using a watt meter. With Prime 95 it can get upto 80 watts. It can be my file...
While your bet paid off, I think your Microsoft analogy is incorrect. Microsoft regularly release patches for performance issues. They even add features with their Service Packs, case in point Windows XP SP2. What do you think should happen if the gen 2 disks have a serious problem and Intel...
I posted about this card a few pages back, although mine hated VIA chipset motherboards and worked for max 10 minutes in 3D games before locking up the whole PC. Bad times.
Uh, the new CCC layout is not very intuitive. At least they could have put all those menu options on welcome page, instead of putting links to their own site!
Thanks for the heads up. This is one of the first tool I download and run on my new systems. I am sure the old versions had a validation option too.
This new layout seems like a widescreen version. :)
The AT article says model number remains the same. Or did you mean to say that Intel is honest because they are not changing the model number but making the disk faster and cheaper? I see plenty of companies doing that. The difference then becomes the release year or the product generation -...
Interesting. I have a Dell Studio 1555 with the Intel X25-M and I don't notice any difference between cold start and hibernate startup. The hibernate shutdown is slightly slower but only by maybe 5-7 seconds. I have my laptop hibernate when the lid is closed, so I don't really notice the...
I do vaguely remember seeing that error! Yes, both my systems were AMD Athlon XP CPU and Windows XP. One with VIA chipset motherboard and another with nforce2. Neither system was stable with the 9600 XT. I had another Nvidia AGP card at that time (6600 GT) and that card ran perfectly in both...
