  • [quote]Originally posted by Jonathan: ah but the formac is available as dvi as well as adc... so your problem's solved right there... Actually, as stated on the Formac website, the DVI version is just the ADC version plus an DVI-ADC-adapter (…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Powerdoc: L3 cache is always static ram, wich means far better latency. If you are interested by the difference between DDR and SDR SRAM see this link :
  • [quote]Originally posted by Xool: The stock 867 Ti is $1,839 US. The 1 Gig Ti w/ superdrive is $2,399. I think he was referring to the Canadian prices (they have an encrypted excel list instead of the ADC hardware pruchase store), whereas t…
  • Just to clarify, since both quotes given by Applenut contradict each other: The first one is correct. In the dual processor macs, both processors share one single 133/167 MHz bus, i.e. both processors together can only ever use half the bandwidth of…
  • [quote]Originally posted by SDW2001: And guys....give up with the "my history balls are bigger than yours debate". This is about the last couple of years. Apple is getting shalacked in bus, processor and ram performance. Well, those three a…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Stagflation Steve: I still have my original IBM PC with it's 4.77mhz 8088 Processor, 32KB of Memory, 160KB Floppy Drives and 10MB Winchester hard drive, I'm repeating myself, but the original IBM PC did not come …
  • [quote]Originally posted by Stagflation Steve: - Hard Disk Drives (Available with IBM PC in 1981) The original IBM PC did not have a HD as standard. This became common at around the AT (286 and up), I think. [quote]- CD-ROM Drives (Fi…
  • [quote]Originally posted by BRussell: Is this true? I thought g had less range then b at max data rate, and about the same range at the same data rate. g definitely has smaller range at max data rate than b. Not sure if the max range has been im…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Eugene: Macubus, this seems like the least of 802.11's problems considering the that 802.11 is simplex I know for a fact that 802.11b is simplex, but I'm not totally sure about 802.11a. Only one side can talk at a ti…
  • Well, even the lo-end configuration features DDR-RAM and the new enclosure, so it can't be using the old-style motherboard. EDIT: Oh, and even the old-style motherboard isn't in any way "crippled" like Yikes was - the main issue with the latter w…
  • [quote]Originally posted by jindrich: why a $3k-4k carefully designed computer is so noisy is beyond my understanding, specially considering that the "fixing" doesnt cost more than $100 rrp. Has anyone done any testing to see if those silent…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Kali: But there's a strange things happening here : The A machine is clearly a bit louder than the B machine. They have the same conf, except A is driving a larger display. A is producing much more heat in the back.…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Eskimo: It's quite possible and common with PCs, and if Apple chose they could make it possible for Macs as well. How is that common with PCs? You might be able to make minor adjustments to the FSB frequency (i.e. s…
  • [quote]Originally posted by anakin1992: also, because of mhz gap, let us fall back to intel xoen p3 processor at similar speed range. so can any one provide a list to compare a dual 1.25 ghz new mac tower with a dual 1.5 ghz intel xoen tower? …
  • [quote]Originally posted by cinder: oh - ok I see the other channel. regardless there are still only two controllers - but there are three channels. Nope, each channel "belongs" to one controller. However, each ATA channel can accomodate…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Barto: That doesn't say that there is no bridge chip. In I/O Reg Explorer, it shows that my system has 3 PCI channels. A PCI bridge (part of Discovery, going to the 3 PCI slots), a channel with a Gigabit Ethernet control…
  • [quote]Originally posted by radar1503: Amorph: You mentioned that Maxbus could speed up video card access...what's the point? I think most video cards these days with 128MB of RAM can store all textures in the onboard memory. Accessing main memor…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Mad Baggins: Doesn't the latency depend on the speed of the memory module itself and the length of the bus, not its frequency? If the bits have to travel 8ns from RAM to CPU (dunno how far that would be lengthwise), th…
