  • [quote]Originally posted by Bogie: [QB]Actually, you are not really much better off with a Radeon than with a Rage128 in a PCI slot. I looked at the bearfeats site an it showed the PCI radeon 31% faster on Quake and 25% faster at UT compared t…
    in What to get: Radeon PCI or Radeon 7000 ? Comment by bernard January 2002
  • [quote]Originally posted by janitor: the 7000 and mac edition are the same, except the 7000 has dual display support in addition to all the outputs present in the original mac edition (flat panel display, svideo tvout) retail the 7000 is $50 m…
    in What to get: Radeon PCI or Radeon 7000 ? Comment by bernard January 2002
  • would it be that crazy for apple to farm out chipset design and production to nvidia like for future imacs and emacs? if it saved them cash. if nvidia will develop it for athons sell complete MB's with geforce 4mx's 10/100 ddr usb2.0 firewire etc f…

  • THE RED BOARD MAY BE REAL BUT THE PICTURE FLOTING AROUND AND THAT IS POSTED HERE IS A MIRROR IMAGE (FLIPPED) THE PDF IS BASED ON THAT BOARD BEING FLIPPED (INCORRECT) THE PCI SLOTS WILL!! BE ON THE BOTTOM. THUS THE PDF IS A FAKE MOST LIKELY.

  • The ibooks will be bumped when the tibooks are, me bets that new G3 (750fx) is available in 1ghz by now but no way apple is gona have higher clock speed ibooks over tibooks even if they are G3's the real question is can the current ibook motherboard…
    in I hate to do this but....iBooks? Comment by bernard June 2002
  • Could some one explain how 64M of VRAM would benefit me in any way on a laptop that doest support video spanning? besides minimal gaming performance?
    in GHZ-POWERBOOKS ?? anyone know? Comment by bernard May 2002
  • Anyone notice the lack of Mac benchmarks? new ibook how fast is it? my guess is more than 16% how does a 733 with L3 cache compare to an 800? i bet the 800 wins.

  • [quote]Originally posted by apple.otaku: I think its pretty obvious that they will be dropping the 22" display soon. It doesn't make sense to have both a 22" and 23" display in there. NO- THE AMOUNT OF EXTRA PIXELS EQUALS A 1024X768 DISPLAY SO I…
    in Widescreen 17inch Flatpanel at MWNY? Comment by bernard April 2002
  • The APPLE ROM did prevent CLONING New world macs still have them there just smaller and very basic. I think there were many early Apple rip-offs 2,2c,2c+ etc.(non mac).
    in PCI? We don't need no stinking PCI Comment by bernard March 2002
  • tom's hardware has a full report about a P4 OC'd fine to 3.1 Ghz it is impresive the new ones have a 512k L2 they do smear Athlons now. I fear this means the Mhz gap will continue to grow not to say it matters or intel makes better but they do overc…

  • No Way Freakin way- :eek: current range Canadian range is $1199- 2299cdn. or $799- 1499 U.S. you think you gona get a G4 imac with superdrive and an LCD for ~1299 U.S. ? it would be nice but dream on. [ 01-07-2002: Message edited by: bernar…
    in Wow...The iLamp...too expensive? Comment by bernard January 2002
  • IBM "sahara" (4stage 512L2 256bit ) is likey to BLOW past G4 7450's at similar clock speeds, in non Altivec stuff (not that there is much) should do alot for notebooks less power and way more speed. if G4's haven't scaled well? we may not see em for…
    in FINAL MWSF Predictions: The writing on the wall Comment by bernard December 2001
  • I think I'll start worring about 8X AGP when a 2X AGP is satureated. much less 4X.
    in AGP 2x 4x 8x lets discuss Comment by bernard January 2002
  • I read the 750fx would use 1.2v on 1Ghz thats gona be a kick ass ibook chip(or ti book). with a full 256bit 512k , 4 stage, 1Ghz-should cream a desktop running any G4<1.2Ghz on non altivec apps.

  • OVERPRICED=volkswagon,porche,audi,bwm,mercedes,vol vo etc. I can get a brand new Honda for way less,breaks down less lasts longer, and maintains its value. guess what many volkswagon,porche,audi,bwm,mercedes,volvo are sold in this country just t…
    in R-E-S-P-E-C-T Comment by bernard December 2001
  • If they do appear or are announced expect the clock speed for Apple to have room to grow, for sales reasons dont expect 1.6Ghz right of the bat. My guess is like the every high end machine in the past: higher clock speed G4's with a G5 anouncement t…
