That was hilarious! Thanks for making me laugh so early in the morning. :laugh:

Thank goodness!! I would have been lost without the video card reviews that you put together W1zzard. You got me good on that April Fools joke... but it is hard to be mad because the relief of knowing that you are staying put was just to good. :toast: Thanks again for all your work!! TPU...

I may check Techpowerup on a daily basis, but I do not post comments very often. But, out of the respect W1zzard has earned from me I have to post a comment. :respect::respect::respect: I trust W1zzard's video card reviews more than ANY other in the internet. He tests every card with the...

If this means we will be getting new All-In-Wonder videocards, then this is GREAT news!! :toast:

With the current state of the economy, the lower priced AMD processors are MUCH more inviting... even if they offer less performance in some areas. Heck, if I am encoding a movie I really do not care if it takes 15 minutes or 30 minutes... I usually walk off and do other things or set up a...

** The S3 Graphics 4300E is designed to offer extreme power efficiency with a total graphics subsystem TDP of less than 8 watts. ** Only 8 watts to handle the HD video... WOW!! Nice job VIA. :toast:

If you take the time to figure out how to use this utility, you will be amazed. It allows you to keep an eye on your video cards' vitals and sooo much more. I will admit that it does take some time to figure out though... not as easy as ATI Tool, but ATI Tool is really outdated and no longer...

I second that!! :toast:

Why they are running SuperPi on a multicore system!?!? Last I knew, SuperPi was not multithreaded... so the extra cores do very little to lower the time. To lower the time in the SuperPi test, you need to raise the speed of the CPU. There is one test you can do with SuperPi to show off the...

Heck, this is a wonderful deal!! Unfortunately, I do not own any BFG video cards.

True... but with this awful slump, almost ALL stocks have been going down. :ohwell:

Hmmm... I never seem to be part of the 'in crowd'. LOL. I actually think this case does have some good points. I doubt that a 120mm/800rpm fan would be noisy at all. And most motherboards can throttle down the CPU fan if you are doing simple things like web browsing. So, I think it could...

The thing that worries me most about SSD drives would be all the caching that Windows does. Don't SSD drives have a limited number or writes that can be performed on them before problems arise? Would the constant caching from Windows cause these drives to fail within a year or two? Or would...

Some of the eee's only have a 2 or 4 GB SSD drive. I am not sure if Vista could fit on those. But, dang... that surprises me. Vista beating XP with only 1 GB of memory. :o Thanks for the information and the link!! :)

I think the popularity of small laptops (like the Asus eee) is increasing the usefullness of XP. The defualt OS for these new laptops is Linux... or Windows XP. Vista is just to beefy and demanding to run efficiently on those little things. As the demand for the eee and its competition...
