    Killer NIC pre-order - Should I get it?

    64MB of DDR... LOL! There no need for any amount of memory on a NIC since the purpose of the NIC is to transfer data to/from the network and CPU as fast as possible. Anyway, the reason this is so expensive is that it's basically a Linux computer that plugs in your PCI slot... Which means you...

    JS80: Jesus was not the son of god! Our Prophet Muhammad is the one you should worship! Believe or I'll kill you! Allah is the greatest!!!!1!1!!!!11oneoneone 5 dead... I am sorry, but for some "strange" reason I can muster no sympathy for them, even though they are just a bunch of brainwashed...

    ATOT, let's decide on the Mohammed cartoons - POLL

    Proving what point? All it proves is that 1 (ONE!) out of 400 papers found it objectionable enough to remove... Jeez... Maybe that particular paper's readers are really uptight? Sure: http://www.dk-hostmaster.dk/index.php?i...uery=10mbit.dk&submit.x=25&submit.y=15

    ATOT, let's decide on the Mohammed cartoons - POLL

    Yes, they are. The opinion expressed by the people on the pictures are on the other hand absolutely unacceptable and they should all be shot at dawn! Seriously, these people scare me. If they don't like democracy, why don't they f*** off and go home to whereever they're from? Is it because...

    ATOT, let's decide on the Mohammed cartoons - POLL

    It *is* about free speech. The cartoons were made because a writer could not get anyone to make drawings for his children's book about Muhammad. Viewed by themselves, some may be somewhat offensive. Together with the original article, as intended, they are not.

    Please people, it's just a cartoon....

    Yeah... It's called Collateral Damage... Like when good moslems get blown up together with infidels.... Do the moslems killed as collateral damage get the 72 virgins as well when they go to heaven? Sigh... First we publish cartoons of Mohammad. Then they stop buying our goods, burn our flag...

    Update: 12 hrs dual Prime 95 small fft with lower ram timings..was 13hrs dual Prime 95 stable....now I am not WTF!!!!

    You can suspect all you want, but if you don't test it you'll never know... Could even be your X800... Suddenly went bad and overheats for no apparent reason? Sounds more like PSU though (like others said as well). Try running p95 on only one core at a time. Test both cores at 15+ hours. Then...

    Been thinking about buying a 2405

    Exactly what Heinrich said. It is an absolutely awesome screen. There's two things to be aware of. * It uses Overdrive, so there's a 1-2 frame lag in the screen. Not an issue if you have a fast graphics card, but if you're stretching it's limits and getting 30fps it might be. * As Heinrich...

    Driving FOUR 24" LCDs

    I'm not sure the matrox card will be a good choice even if he's not gaming. Pay very very close attention to their specs, as some of their cards are limited in their support of high resolutions off of DVI (Example: G550 runs nicely at 1600x1200 on dual screens in analog mode, but the DVI output...

    Poor console CPU performance, claim game devs

    Ehh... The article disappeared while I was reading it (going to page 5), then I turned to this thread, and now the blog post is gone as well... WTF?!?

    RAID...? HW? SW?

    Currently, I have a file server running Linux with 8 120GB disks bunched together with LVM (Logical Volume Manager). This works pretty good, except for the lack of data security if a drive should fail. I now want to upgrade this box (another, actually, but forget that) to a MythTV backend...
