TechNews - AMD/ATI vs. Intel/Nvidia - tech
(hx) 03:14 AM CEST - May,14 2010 - Post a comment / read (2)
  • AMD/ATI vs. Intel/Nvidia Gaming Performance - The chaps over at ocaholic compared the gaming performance of AMD/ATI vs. Intel/Nvidia.
  • CPU Round-up: Sub-$100 Intel and AMD Processors Tested - TechSpot posted a CPU roundup of sub-$100 Intel and AMD Processors.
  • AMD Phenom II X4 960T cancelled for retail/e-tail - AMD has notified the press that its Phenom II X4 960T, which is known for its ability to unlock to a fully fledged six core processor , will not reach retail/on-line stores, however it will still be available as an OEM- only part. The dream of having a six core 45nm thuban-based CPU for the same price as a quad core has been shattered by AMD, and honestly we can't blame them. This is mainly down to the bad publicity that AMD received when they released the X3 CPU's that had problems unlocking, even though AMD made it clear to all users that the unlock was at their own risk not AMD's. Can't really blame them for that, can we? If you happen to get a processor that can unlock cores, then you are one of the lucky ones.
  • High End Storage Comparison - The chaps over at PC Perspective have posted a high end storage comparison today that pits a pair of SSDs against Quad Velociraptors. Who wins?  As it turns out, both configurations performed very well under these criteria and there is little doubt that the Areca 1230 card is responsible for some of that leveling between the SSDs and traditional hard drives. The raw performance edge still obviously goes to the pair of SiliconEdge SSDs though I was impressed at how close the Velociraptors were able to get. Obviously if you are worried about capacity and price more than the top speed result here, I think the Western Digital Velociraptors are easily the best pick.
  • A faster Wi-Fi format aims to eliminate most wires - At a speed of 7 gigabits per second, WiGig can easily handle the transfer of high-def video. That positions it as a replacement for wired HDMI connections or optical audio cables.
  • Microsoft offers PC makers Office Starter for $2 - Microsoft is planning to offer PC manufacturers $2 per copy of Microsoft Office Starter 2010, if they pre-install the Bing bar and Windows Live Essential.
  • May 2010 Security Bulletin Release - Microsoft issued two critical bulletins on Tuesday fixing holes in its e-mail programs and the Visual Basic for Applications programming language implementation built into Office.
  • Highly critical Safari vulnerability - Secunia last week published a new vulnerability affecting Apple's desktop Safari browser. The new exploit can be used by malicious users to execute arbitrary code on the system and is deemed to be 'highly critical'. The security research company found the exploit to grant system level access when a user 'visits a specially crafted web page and closes opened pop-up windows'. Affected versions include Safari 4.0.5 for Windows, though other versions and operating systems might also be affected.
  • MS is hoping free Office Mobile will stop users from switching - Microsoft announced that Office Mobile 2010 is now a free upgrade for all Windows Mobile 6.5 users with the previous version of Office Mobile.
  • FCC hands Hollywood the keys to your PC, home theater and future - According to BoingBoing, the FCC has given Hollywood permission to activate the 'Selective Output Control' technologies in your set-top box. These are hidden flags that allow the MPAA to deactivate parts of your home theater depending on what you're watching. The FCC says that they're doing this because they believe that if they do so, the MPAA will start releasing first-run movies (the ones that are still in theaters) for TV. They say that Hollywood won't make these movies available unless they get Selectable Output Control because SOC will stop piracy. WTF?!
  • BlackBerry Bold 9800 slider caught on video - Check out the new BlackBerry Bold 9800 device running OS 6.0 on video. Who's excited about this new addition to the Bold family?
  • Border's Kobo e-reader launches June 17th for $149 - Border's ebook reader is now official. The Kobo produced device will be available on June 17th for $149 featuring a 6" e-Ink display, 1GB of internal storage, and an SD card slot. This is a very aggressive price point when considering its closest competition, Amazon's Kindle and Barnes & Noble's Nook, both clock in at $259. The Kobo e-reader will ship preloaded with 100 classic books, and will have over a million e-books available for purchase.
  • JaicraB Releases KeyFindPuP v0.1, Details PS3 LV2 Dump Progress - Just over a month ago JaicraB attempted to dump the PS3 Hypervisor LV2 (GameOS) and revealed how it was done, and today he has released a KeyFindPuP application alongside details on their PS3 LV2 dump progress.
  • Microsoft's Translating Telephone - Microsoft has developed a translating-phone that combines speech recognition, machine translation, and text-to-speech technology allowing two people of different languages to carry on a phone conversation.
  • Impossible motion: magnet-like slopes (video) - In this video, wooden balls roll up the slopes just as if they are pulled by a magnet. The behavior of the balls seems impossible, because it is against the gravity. The video is not a computer graphic, but a real scene. What is actually happening is that the orientations of the slopes are perceived oppositely, and hence the descending motion is misinterpreted as ascending motion. This illusion is remarkable in that it is generated by a three-dimensional solid object and physical motion, instead of a two-dimensional picture.
  • Pixar's Summer 2011 Newt Movie Has Been Officially Canceled - The Pixar Blog reports that Newt, a 3D film that was originally scheduled for release in summer of 2011, has been canceled.
  • J.J. Abrams' Super 8 Official HQ Teaser Trailer! - Paramount has debuted the teaser trailer for J.J. Abrams' secret alien project Super 8 online in high def on Apple. Paramount will be releasing Super 8 in theaters everywhere sometime next summer in 2011 (a date has not been set).
  • The making of Dubai 45 Gigapixels (video) - Creating the worlds largest digital panoramic photo www.gigapan.org/gigapans/48492/.
  • How Not to Demonstrate Your Car's Auto-Brake Feature (video) - Volvo (now a Chinese brand) shows how not to demonstrate your car's "Collision Warning with Auto Brake" system in front of a live audience. As you can probably already tell, the S60 doesn't fare too well when it came time to brake.
  • 2011 Porsche 911 GT2 RS (video) - Only 500 of these beasts will be produced, retailing from $245,000 when the first deliveries begin this October.

The english link for AMD vs Nvidia is http://www.ocaholic.ch/xoops/html/modules/smartsection/item.php?itemid=405

I don't even have to read it, I know Nvidia will wipe the floor with ATI unless its a BS review. I don't care if Nvidia is louder or hotter either. I've had cards people whined about being too loud or too hot and I never really experienced either problem. I got a 260 right now and I really have no plans to upgrade because everything I throw at it works great. I don't buy hardware just for bragging rights. I'm just not that small of a person. When it makes sense to upgrade, that's when I will do it.

The FCC is perfectly right here, Hollywood will switch off your sound/video when they see you watch brainless computercrap like Avatar or so, people watching such crap are not worth having a TV in the 1st place.
