LCD Buyer's Guide

I got it mid-October last year, it is the european version (without the M). I don't know where to check the revision. I just thought that perhaps this has something to do with running it at 60Hz while as far as I know this monitor supports 75Hz refresh rate? Just an idea. My laptop has a...

LCD Buyer's Guide

I noticed the same problem some time ago on my 20WGX2 (noise and burn in). I don't notice it day to day, but now that you pointed it out I did some tests and it's the most noticable with uniform rgb (20, 20, 20) to rgb (40, 40, 40) more less. I always attributed this to the VGA cable and my...

GF8800 GTS power supply?

well I found a SILVERSTONE STRIDER ST46F 460W and here in eu it costs approx. $105 I may have to put this idea on hold because buying a more expensive graphics card and a high end PSU is overkill for me right now ;) I will know what to look out for now, thanks!

GF8800 GTS power supply?

thx, I guess I won't get away with a cheap PSU... the idea to pay more for the PSU alone than for many cases with a PSU built in seems so wrong :) I found the system requirements for a Gainward 8800 GTS: http://www.gainward.de/media/files/Spec...s8800GTS_PCX_DD_GS_640MB_datasheet.pdf They...

GF8800 GTS power supply?

I don't know much about powers supplies, what power supply do I need if I want to get a GF8800 GTS? (no SLI, no overclocking) Will 400W be enough? What connectors must it have? I will be using it with a Core2 Duo CPU, 1 SATA II HDD. I can't find clear info anywhere (especially on...

Chorus of Islamic followers freak out about Pope's comments

To avoid confusion maybe it'd be better instead of talking about Islam or Muslims or Arabs to say radical sects within Islam and their supporters. Now those exist and that's a fact. In addition to that there are, as it is apparent today, large numbers of mildly violent protesters who perhaps...

Google AI Project

You'd have to be blind not to notice that computers already have a huge impact on how we live our lives. Just one example: the courses for my studies are planned by a computer - it will tell me when and where I have to go each day for the next semester. I actually think Google is a very...

Sonoma platform, what's the consensus?

Concerning games: I'd like to be able to play some of the older titles, especially those using Quake3 engine (though i understand ET might be too much, right now I have a Radeon9000/64MB laptop and it plays ET well, not great but ok, I was hoping the new intel gfx card had similar performance...

Sonoma platform, what's the consensus?

So how is the Sonoma platform compared to previous Centrino platforms? I can't find any recent Media Accelerator 900 benchmarks (none at all actually, just the desktop Integrated version). I've read there are some problems with rendering, is it only with DX9 games, have they released drivers to...

World Leaders Gather for Auschwitz Ceremony

What does the author of this article mean by that: "The commemoration means different things to each nation: for Russia it is a commemoration of its often-overlooked role as liberator, while for Poland and other Central European countries it is both part of a gradual recognition of their...

Debating between 2 different MP3 players

Can Zen Touch play music when plugged into a wall outlet (not on battery) or when recharging? And do you mean you can transfer files to the player without any software that has to be installed? Was there a firmware update for that (I thought Creative MediaSource was necessary)?

Sennheiser make good headphones?

Out of the headphones you listed HD555 is your best choice, especially since you like open headphones. The reason there aren't many reviews is that these are relatively new. HD555 is a lot like the top of the HD5x5 line HD595, and both of them use very similar drivers to HD650, but are lower...
