Thanks for clearing that up, I had the opinion that all frames per second are equal, but your explanation about static imaging clarifies it for me. That said, I still don't really notice much differen ...

That's a bit harsh. Not many people complain about the film at the local cinema "chopping by" at 24-29.96fps (on 35mm flim). Typically, anything faster than 25fps is suitably imperceptible t ...

I would imagine that the expense of "upgrading" would be well worth
the savings (at $0.07/kWh cost @1.2MW = $84/hr vs. @2.4kW $0.168/hr). However, I'm inclined to go with penguinboy 15 ...

So this thing can do what equilibrates to 1 TFLOP (1000 * 10^9 = 10^12 = tera-). Pretty pathetic in the world of supercomputers.An nVidia Tesla 1U server can crank out an average of 3.935 TFLOPS and i ...

Oh, come on, give the guy a break. Accronyms misspellings are especially difficult to catch since spellcheck doesn't catch them. Given the consistent use of the incorrect accronym I would venture th ...

I'm pretty certain that the correct accronym for "American Civil Liberties Union" is "ACLU". Any reason to not write it correctly? At least the error is consistent. = ...

Sorry about the confusion, I was trying to say that "some" games are ported to PC half-assedly, e.g., Halo (the first one), where it was a direct port from the console, no extra hardware sup ...

Windows is "the" computer gaming platform. I would venture an argument that the majority of MaxPC readers are gamers. Ultimately, until a more open API platform becomes widely accepted by th ...

I don't quite get this debacle about making a board with both DDR2 and DDR3, especially since the board is incapable of running DDR3 in tri-channel. Plus, what happens if one uses DDR3 with an AM2+ pr ...

I wouldn't be too hasty, $250 for a full tower is pretty standard for a non-run-of-the-mill case. My only gripe is that it's steel. Granted, I've been spoiled by all of my many Lian-Li cases over the ...

Unfortunately, the separate chamber doesn't exactly help cooling as well as one might expect; many cases, if not all, use the PSU as an exhaust port. I have a Lian-Li PC-V2000 series case and I had co ...

Of course, the argument against that is that there are books published in Braille, or perhaps the Kindle has a zoom feature. However, the Braille solution is incredibly expensive for an individual, an ...
