VAPOR-X SAPPHIRE ATI Radeon HD 5770 - With mainstay HSF

noreply@blogger.com (Blog Darjo) — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 07:20:00 -0800

Lately, the market was flooded with computer graphics began with the features of DirectX 11, the ATI HD 5000 series. At the beginning of its launch, graphics cards launched by their respective manufacturers still use the reference model. However, the producers seem to begin to launch non-reference models, such as this one product, Sapphire Vapor-X ATI HD 5770 Overclock Edition.

Logo Logo is Saphhire turns blue when lit graphics card.

Although using reference PCB, Sapphire has been used to replace HSF. Like the previous series, Sapphire using their typical HSF, the Vapor-X. This HSF size does not take much space on the PCB, but the lid large HSF make this HSF looks take place.
When CHIP turn this graphics card, there is the strangeness of this graphics card specifications. The number of stream processors that should amount to 800, 720 is only available on this graphics card.

Vapor-X series HSF Sapphire is believed to tame the heat.

After CHIP find information about it, was an early version of this BIOS has a bug that number only 720 stream processors. After CHIP BIOS update available on the Sapphire website, stream graphics processor is back to 800.
Previously, CHIP could perform the test using a BIOS that has not been updated. After the BIOS is updated, the performance of these graphics cards has increased, although not much like the 3DMark Vantage is increased from P9624 to P10128. Overall, this graphics card's performance, including satisfactory.
Although conclusions could experience problems with the BIOS, graphics card is still able to demonstrate its performance in the mainstream classroom.

Sparkle GT 240 512 MB GDDR5 - Effective with GDDR5

noreply@blogger.com (Blog Darjo) — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 01:03:00 -0800

NVIDIA strategy to target middle to lower market is quite appropriate, considering that this segment is the largest market for computer users. Replacing G94/G92 graphics chip that has long relied upon, NVIDIA released today with some GT240/GT220 series of new technologies. We tried one sample of Sparkle which uses chips with GDDR5 GT 240.

GDDR5 on graphics card has a total capacity of 512 MB.

Sparkle uses the standard specifications of the NVIDIA reference core clock of 550 MHz and 1700 MHz memory (3400 Mhz) GDDR5. The use of GDDR5 memory provides enough distance higher performance than the GDDR3 memory. Although memory is used only 512 MB, the memory of this size can be used more effectively when compared with the use of 1GB of memory. Given the power of this graphics card has not too large, then the 512MB memory usage should have been more than enough.

Variety of output connectors for display on this product fairly complete.

Sales package that included the very minimalist Sparkle. In the small white box packaging graphics cards have only a graphics card, drivers, quick start guide, and a discount coupon game The Sims 3. Simple sales package may be intended to put pressure on selling prices of these entry-level products.

Although relatively less powerful than the GeForce series of chips higher class, GT chips on the graphics card 240 is still quite comfortable to play new games with detail settings and resolution images are not too high.

Varian conclusion GeForce GT 240 with GDDR5 which you consider appropriate.

noreply@blogger.com (Blog Darjo) — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 00:54:00 -0800

Fill the vacuum line of NVIDIA graphics cards with the release of his 240/220 GT series, which is intended for entry-level market segment. Although not a series of high end, this graphics card brings 40nm fabrication technology, GDDR5, and DirectX 10.1 for the first time from NVIDIA.

By using the fabrication process of the smaller and GDDR5 memory, graphics card certainly can suppress the operational power consumption. 240 GT ZOTAC AMP! 512 GDDR5 running normally without the need for additional power cable.

Given the sales package graphics are abundant enough for its class.

us the opportunity to test products from ZOTAC 240 GT which has a "title" AMP!, which means that this graphics card is set by default to run with higher clock than the default (factory overclocked). ZOTAC using core clock of 600MHz and 2000MHz GDDR5 memory, which means effective at 4000Mhz. With a setting like this had improved, automatically generated performance will increase. From the testing conducted, this graphics card capable of producing a higher score of about 15-20% than the standard 240 GT product.

ZOTAC graphics physical appearance GT 240.

ZOTAC also bundles a Vision 3D glasses, which can be used to take advantage of Nvidia's 3D stereo feature. Exclusive enough, given the lack vendors who provide this bundle. Exclusive impression also emanated from the physical graphics card is: using a black PCB and HSF dove simple but effective in expelling heat from the graphics card is.

Performance conclusions fast, attractive physical appearance, and given exclusive bundle can be your reason for buying this ZOTAC products.

Phenom II: Overclocking

noreply@blogger.com (Blog Darjo) — Sun, 7 Mar 2010 19:16:00 -0800

Perhaps many of you who feel you have hardware that is not qualified, or unable to compete with hardware-new hardware. For example, you have a Q6600 but Q6600 feel you can no longer compete with the E8400? If you are talking about synthetic benchmarks like 3dMark06's probably true, but the reply is not necessarily in the game.

At this opportunity, we will discuss the basic principles of overclocking. Perhaps for most communities CHIP, overclocking is to achieve the highest value with the hardware they own. But the basic principles of overclocking itself is actually owned hardware run faster than the specification to achieve the performance level above the hardware specifications of the optimal position. Is optimal, the temperature is still in its early stages and did not experience normal hangs to run any application.

Overclocking in general would damage the equipment owned by, or shorten the age of the hardware. However, if done correctly in the optimal level, then the old age will not be as short as if 'torture' over and over. Well, the point still remains aja shorten life; even slightly.

This overclocking article will be divided into 3 parts, processors, graphics cards and memory. At this time, we will only discuss overclocking processor.

Equipments

Certainly overclock to achieve the optimal point, necessary hardware support; which must surely is a better heatsink, and also pure power supply. Power supply is recommended that a minimum of 550watt rating. These considerations will load up load is proportional to the increase in voltage and speed of the Q6600, plus the burden of VGA, and hard disk.

System test

Because this subject is testnya INTEL Q6600, then the discussion will run on Q6600. Voltage is low, ie 1.25 V to make it interesting. In addition, with 4 cores that are owned, of course, very fun to do multitasking and graphic design. In general, the Q6600 can easily reach the 50% increase, from 2.4GHz to 3.6GHz.

The motherboard of course have to have the ability to overclock. Do not need a motherboard that was created specifically for overclocking because we are not going to use it to the max. Generally the latest motherboard already has the facilities to do overclcoking, so quite a variety of options. Examples of cheap motherboard that can do the overclocking motherboard chipset is nvidia N73PV. Experiments done on the Q6600 with overclcoking motherboard is only a 25% increase alone. Quite worth the cheap price. Motherbaord with us $ 100-200 range will have a better ability, even 80% of them can reach the minimum 50% increase on the Q6600 with HSF.

In the experiment this time, we will not discuss memory overclocking, so DDR2 PC6400 memory, or even PC8500 is a good choice. FSB to Memory ratio used is that achieving optimum value from memory.

System test this time is as follows:
Processor: Intel Q6600 Stepping G0

Motherboard: ASUS P5K Deluxe
Memory: Team Xtreem DDR2 PC8500
VGA: Digital Alliance 9600GT Sonic Passat
Hard Disk: Western Digital CAVIAR 3200 AAKS
PSU: OCZ PowerStream 520watt
Heatsink: Xigmatek Scorpion LGA 775

Figure 1. The default clock of the Q6600.

Figure 2. Default memory SPD.

Overclocking
For starters, make sure all the CPU features are already in the non-disabled. CPU feature is a feature energy-saving features such as C1E, Max CPUID Value Limit, Vanderpool Technology, CPU TM Function, and Execute Disable Bit.

Figure 3. Change all the "Disable".

Because our target is at 400 FSB processor, so if you are using a memory PC 800 (6400), change the memory to FSB ratio to 1:1, on some motherboards this comparison indicated with 1.0. Changing 1:1 is intended to be working memory BUS equivalent his proccesor. Then change the command rate to 2T.
On some motherboards, this ratio is determined by using the FSB Strap to Norhtbridge and DRAM Frequency. This is done both mengcombinasi these comparisons to generate a comparison of the bios inginkan.Apabila you find this type, to facilitate, change the FSB Frequency to 400.

Figure 4. Setting of 800MHz memory, change so that when using a 400 MHz FSB, the DDR2 is 800MHz.

Figure 5. Setting should be on a memory PC-1066 or 8500.

If you use PC 8500 memory, it is better to use 2:3 ratio, as shown in the image above.

Voltage

The next thing is to increase the processor voltage (vcore) to 1.4v level, intended to ensure energy obtained from the processor is enough. Some things to come is raised, northbridge and southbridge voltage, and VPLL. For V PLL, do not set the voltage to the maximum level, as this will kill your processor is faster than raise the level 2v vcore though. For GTL Ref, raise to about 0.57x. Do not forget to disable the FSB Spread Spectrum Spread Spectrum and Memory.

Figure 6. As this is about GTL reference voltage and the desired.

After everything is loaded, so now you're ready to raise the FSB processor. FSB target this time was 400. Multiplier is not touched, so that 400 × 9, to 3.6 GHz. More than enough for playing games and doing daily tasks.

Figure 7. Screenshot of CPUZ clock in a state too overclock.

Figure 8. Screenshot memory timings in the state was overclock.

Benchmark
Below Benchmark 3DMark is to use, and a few games to see real evidence of this increase.

Figure 9. Default 3DMark.

Figure 10. 3DMark overclocked.

Can be found here, with an increase of 50% increase in processor without support from the other side, the gaming performance is also increased by approximately 15%.

Below is a comparison table adallah gaming performance on GRID and Hellgate London.

Figure 11. GRID

Figure 12. Hellgate London

Most felt that here was loading windows that usually takes about 50 seconds to just 16 seconds. Visible below the Super Pi 8M processor is very burdensome, terdongkrak far enough around 35%.

Figure 13. Loading Windows and Super Pi 8M

Thus the first article of this basic overclocking. In the next two articles, will be continued on memory overclocking and graphics cards, so the increase will be more tasteless.

LANPARTY DFI Blood-Iron P43-T34 - P43 with DDR3

noreply@blogger.com (Blog Darjo) — Sun, 7 Mar 2010 10:49:00 -0800

Intel P43 chipset is one of Intel's mainstream classes at affordable prices. This chipset is quite rarely heard since not many variants are issued by each motherboard manufacturer. One of the variants were present in the market comes from DFI with product manufacturers, LanParty Blood-Iron P43-T34.

DDR3 motherboard is ready to support new types of memory.

LanParty series hallmark of this producer, it became clear on the motherboard. As the use of PCBs in black and orange slot on some motherboards. This motherboard layout was simple look with no number attached components, such as the lack of heatsinks for cooling the processor mofset around.

For this motherboard, DFI provides four memory slots for DDR3 memory type. In the meantime, the available expansion slots consist of one PCI-e x16 slot, three PCI-e x1, and two PCI. Sales package contents provided relatively simple one, but suffice to build a whole computer.

Minimalist Not much you will find on the sales package.

Although the chipset is intended for mainstream classes, this motherboard's performance should not be considered one eye. This motherboard performance, including both the test of everyday applications. In any game testing, performance did not show symptoms of an anomaly. If you are fond of overclocking, this motherboard provides a feature ABS II, or you can do so through the BIOS menu with a choice of settings that are categorized as fairly complete.

Although conclusions sales package contents and features offered are not abundant, you still can rely on the ability of this motherboard.

Data Transfer Rate 600 MB / s

noreply@blogger.com (Blog Darjo) — Sun, 7 Mar 2010 10:45:00 -0800

SATA 6 Gb / s speed promises double the previous generation. How is the performance of first generation devices for this interface?

In using the computer certainly will not escape the use of storage media. Storage media such as hard disks, optical discs, and solid state drives. In the storage media connected with the motherboard, use an interface. Currently, there are two types of commonly used interfaces. The first is the IDE or often referred to as Parallel ATA, which is abbreviated as PATA. This interface uses a wide cable that uses 44 or 80 conductors. Storage media that use this interface can transfer data up to 100 MB / s.

SATA

The second interface is Serial ATA, or what we often call the acronym SATA. SATA is the further development of PATA. By using SATA, a storage medium for data transfer speeds up to 150 MB / s, through the PATA data transfer limit. Of course, this would enable producers to boost hard disk performance of their products. Unfortunately, until now there has been no hard disk which can transfer a data matching the SATA specification. However, an SSD can transfer data more quickly than those specifications. Therefore, this interface has named a second-generation SATA II.

SATA-IO

SATA II also has a SATA 3 Gb / s to 3 Gbit / s, but now has changed its name to the SATA-IO. The second generation SATA features data transfer speeds twice that of first generation SATA, which is 300 MB / s. Why not 375 MB / s (1 bit = 8 bytes)? This is caused by the use of 20% of the bandwidth for the encoding scheme done on his bus. Is it only enhanced bandwidth? There are several functions that are added to the SATA 3 Gbit / s is, among the backward compatibility, hot plug and Native Command Queuing.

At this speed level, an SLC type SSD can reach speeds specification SATA 3 Gbit / s this. However, a group called the Open NAND Flash Interface Working Group has established a specification that can drive the data transfer of 500 MB / s. For this reason, the third generation of SATA launched.

SATA 6 Gb / s

SATA 6 Gb / s, SATA 6 Gbit / s, SATA revision 3.0, or often referred to as SATA 3 specifications have increased the speed of 300 MB / s to 600 MB / s. In addition to speed, feature-feature on SATA 3 Gbit / s is also improved, updated, and added that more optimal function and can meet the needs of fast data transfer in the future.

When testing motherboards comparison test at last edition, CHIP find some motherboards already support SATA 6 Gbit / s this. A hard disk SATA 6 Gbit / s is also coming to the CHIP test center, the Seagate Barracuda XT which has a capacity of 2 TB. Therefore, CHIP interested to know how much impact the transition from SATA 3 Gbit / s to 6 Gbit / s.

Testing hdtune

Seeing the performance of Barracuda XT, it's SATA 6 Gb / s can not be fully implemented on a hard disk. The resulting performance of this disk is roughly equal to the hard disk installed in slot SATA 3 Gb / s.

i / o-meter

I / O meter CHIP used primarily to measure how well a device can write and read data at random. Results indicated no different HDTune. Velocity at the same SATA II SATA 3.

File copy

CHIP uses two methods to copy files test, consists of copying a large file with 3 GB and to copy many files with a total capacity of 4 GB. The results obtained when installed on the SATA II and SATA 3 is no different.

PCMark Vantage

In PCMark Vantage, just look a little different when the hard disk XT Seagate Barracuda SATA interface used with SATA 3 and 2. The performance difference is not too large. However, you are using Windows Media Center will benefit from the performance difference nearly 20 MB / s. Even so, until the time of this writing, the implementation of the SATA hard disk or 3 SATA 6 Gb / s deemed not optimal. This certainly will be different again when the hard disk that is already optimized or SSD with SATA interface will be launched 3.

Slot SATA 3 SATA 3 We have not implemented the main chipset.

3 SATA hard disk first. Seagate launched a product line of products on its hard disk. This time, the hard disk that was released by their relatively new type. This is because the hard disk using SATA 3 interface that has data transfer rates 600 MB / s. Hard disk Seagate Barracuda called XT. The first model came out and both came to CHIP Test Center is the model with the largest capacity right now, that is 2 TB. This hard disk and a hard disk with SATA interface in the world's first 3.

Seagate produces hard disk speed is 7200 RPM. In addition to compatibility with data transfer up to 600 MB / s, the hard disk is of course also supports first-generation SATA interface, the SATA 1 (150 MB / s) and SATA 2 (300MB / s). To optimize performance and reduce the bottleneck when transferring data, Seagate pair of cache memory 64 MB on your hard disk.

Performance offered by the Seagate Seagate Barracuda XT is faster than previous types of Barracuda and a few hard drives that have been there until now. Hard disk performance is capable of transferring data at a speed of reading 138 MB / s. Speed he wrote himself adrift only 4 MB / s, ie 134 MB / s. However, can not be denied that at this speed, SATA 3 interface is not optimal on this disk. When used on the SATA 2 interface, hard disk is running at roughly the same as when using the SATA interface 3.

Conclusion

If you do not have a SSD, built especially for third-generation SATA, its performance will not differ from the previous generation SATA. Therefore, SATA 6GB / s not suitable for use by home users who still use the hard disk. Hard disk SATA interface that uses 6 Gb / s was also able to run at speeds roughly the same when attached to a slot SATA 3 Gb / s. This is what makes SATA 6 Gb / s is not attractive for use in the present. However, the choice is in your hands. Do you need a slot SATA 6 Gb / s or not?

Combination Ideal CPU and VGA: Intel & VGA ATI Radeon

noreply@blogger.com (Blog Darjo) — Sun, 7 Mar 2010 10:45:00 -0800

Plan to reconcile the ATI graphics card with your Intel system? Read the following article to guide you in determining the appropriate choice!

Welcome to the 2nd round scalability test graphics card! As with last month's edition of this article you can find a pair graphics cards (VGA) is appropriate for the processor (CPU), or vice versa processor what you need for your dream graphics card can run optimally. The difference this article by article and issue lies in the use of brand processors paired with graphics card test participants. Previously, CHIP using AMD processors from the manufacturer. Well, this time CHIP will measure their performance graphics card with a pair of Intel processors.

First Things First

Before beginning, let us first discuss the return pattern of relationships between the graphics card processor. What's going on between them that makes them important? If you run an application that in fact the game is the main purpose of a consumer-class graphics card, processor speed will affect the speed of graphics card. If the processor speed can not match the speed of graphics cards, then the overall performance gaming systems will be hampered. The opposite can also happen, graphics cards will slow FPS limit the acquisition of the system very quickly though. As a result of unequal combination of graphics cards and processors are graphical displays on the screen game will appear later, usually in the form of jerky movements of the respective games. This can be very annoying playing comfort.

Balance

So what's the importance of knowing scalability of a graphics card? To get a satisfying gaming performance, you should really consider the balance of the combination of graphics card and processor. You certainly do not

Latest Atomic Train

noreply@blogger.com (Blog Darjo) — Sun, 7 Mar 2010 10:44:00 -0800

After more than a year the first generation Atom processor was introduced as a power source netbook, eventually replaced by a new generation, "Pineview".

Not much different from the Intel Atom processor is still a netbook-class filler. Intel made several changes to the platform named "Pine Trail" and the claim would make a netbook physical thinner and lighter. This may occur because the northbridge that serves as a graphics and memory controller abolished and merged into the processor. That way, only the left southbridge on the board game, which in this platform is called "Tiger Point".

This is not out of the technology has been adopted by the latest Intel processor i7 series and I5. The purpose of the removal of northbridge is a dimension of a smaller main board and power consumption required so that the diminishing power of a netbook survive longer.

CHIP seemed to feel lucky to get a "enginering sample" of the Pine Trail platform that has been installed in a yard from the MSI netbook U135 series. It could be said that the MSI U135 dimension is not much changed from the netbook MSI netbook-earlier. Still the same dimensions and weight are still not much different from before. In the graphs to be presented later CHIP you will be invited to see whether differences in terms of performance using a benchmark program Sysmark 2007 and battery life and performance qualification with MobileMark 2007.

CHIP tried to compare the U135 with a series MSI U123 netbook using Intel's Atom N280 processor. For the battery and screen, the second specification is exactly the same platform, which distinguishes only the U123 uses Intel's Atom platform long and U135 using the latest platforms. Does this latest platform Pinetrail interesting? You'll find the answer. Happy reading.

Sysmark 2007

On the MSI U123 netbook was installed operating system Windows XP Home Edition and installed on the MSI U135 Windows 7 Starter Edition which is designed for netbook platforms that do not actually need a variety of programs. In this test, the MSI U135 seems still left with the MSI U123. This may be due to the use of the operating system. When you return to the previous edition in the article "Migrating to Windows 7", you'll understand why MSI U135 MSI is still less than the U123. But this defeat is not nothing, by using this new OS you will get a variety of interesting features that you do not get to the Windows XP.

Battery life

It seems the promise that the platform is more efficient Pine Trail power can not be fulfilled for the moment. This can be seen from the comparison between the MSI MSI U135 and U123. In the graph above you can see that the difference in battery life is not too significant, although the battery with the same power. Both platforms are only for six minutes. Yet another story on the results of performance qualification, the results obtained showed that while more powerful platform than the platform Pine Trail. CHIP did not get to try on ECO mode due to time constraints. However, CHIP is very optimistic in ECO mode, battery life will be longer, but will sacrifice performance. It will not be too distracting because you will use a netbook to run applications only lower middle income that do not require high performance.

Conclusion
Still like his predecessor

Looks like Intel's promise to create a mobile device for the netbook class with Pine Trail platform can not be fulfilled in Engineering samples embedded in the MSI U135. Supposedly, the reduction northbridge makes power consumption is used less and less and make

a playing board increasingly become more simple. So that would make the dimension of a netbook will become more streamlined. Performance seems to still be pursuing Intel Atom predecessor but this may be because it was still unprepared Bios and chipset drivers Tiger Point. CHIP expect, when enters mass production, netbook earlier promised would happen. we'll wait.

ECS A790GXM-AD3 - More Socket AM3 from ECS

noreply@blogger.com (Blog Darjo) — Sun, 7 Mar 2010 10:43:00 -0800

Over time, AMD motherboard with socket AM3 increasingly flooded market. Increasing proliferation of DDR3 memory variants are accompanied by increasingly affordable price became one of the reasons. Chipset AMD 790GX & SB750 has ever released on the socket AM2 + now has a variant that uses socket AM3.

D-Sub and HDMI ECS unfortunate enough not include a DVI port.

One of the producers who issued the variance is ECS, with its products, A790GXM-AD3. Chipset AMD 790GX & SB750 into motor PCB motherboard with this dark brown. To expel heat from the chipset, ECS uses heatsinks with large enough size on northbridge chipset. In the mofset, ECS did not miss using the same amount hetsink.

If you only need an onboard graphics card, ATI HD 3300 is equipped with a memory sideport ready to meet your needs. These graphics can still be relied upon to run the games that are not too heavy. If you need extra performance, you can add a graphics card add-on or two pieces to feature ATI CrossFireX.

Two heatsinks heatsink covering the northbridge chipset and MOSFET.

CHIP currently testing this motherboard, motherboard error could occur when the processor detects the speed. However, this problem can be solved by updating the motherboard BIOS to a newer version. Beyond the problem occurs, this motherboard's performance does not disappoint.

For your conclusion that want to upgrade your computer, socket AM3 become the choice for better support in the future. Motherboard from ECS this may be one of your choice.

Supreme Commander 2

noreply@blogger.com (Blog Darjo) — Sun, 7 Mar 2010 10:42:00 -0800

Supreme Commander game series comes with the latest shows mass war involving thousands of units and a better view.

If you like war games that involve massive war with the number of units that exceed a hundred, like Total War series of games, surely you'll love the latest game in the series this game Supreme Commander.

Not only that, Supreme Commander 2 was getting quite a lot of improvement when compared with the first game. In addition to the more attractive appearance, you'll also see a major overhaul of the intelligence units involved in combat, a new method to improve the unit you're playing, and his ability to play on computers with high capabilities.

As a strategy game that has a massive battle involving hundreds to thousands of units on the battlefield, this game surely must have some advantages not shared by other strategy games that involve only small units. First, this game should be able to manage well the unit movement so as not obstructed in the area of narrowing and causes the movement of hundreds of other units will not stop running behind her. The developer of this game promises solving problems without having to ask for a large processor performance. This is one of the deprivations faced by the first game.

Second, all units are visible in one screen you should see the difference in kind. So, you can easily find a tank in the middle of the crowd tank B. It also resolved to make the design of each unit is unique. The quality looks comparable to the Demigod, game developer who also made the same. This game will release in March 2010.

Phenom II: Overclocking

noreply@blogger.com (Blog Darjo) — Sun, 7 Mar 2010 10:41:00 -0800

This overclocking article will be divided into 3 parts, processors, graphics cards and memory. At this time, we will only discuss overclocking processor.

Equipments

System test

In the experiment this time, we will not discuss memory overclocking, so DDR2 PC6400 memory, or even PC8500 is a good choice. FSB to Memory ratio used is that achieving optimum value from memory.

System test this time is as follows:
Processor: Intel Q6600 Stepping G0

Figure 1. The default clock of the Q6600.

Figure 2. Default memory SPD.

Figure 3. Change all the "Disable".

Figure 4. Setting of 800MHz memory, change so that when using a 400 MHz FSB, the DDR2 is 800MHz.

Figure 5. Setting should be on a memory PC-1066 or 8500.

Figure 6. As this is about GTL reference voltage and the desired.

Figure 7. Screenshot of CPUZ clock in a state too overclock.

Figure 8. Screenshot memory timings in the state was overclock.

Benchmark
Below Benchmark 3DMark is to use, and a few games to see real evidence of this increase.

Figure 9. Default 3DMark.

Figure 10. 3DMark overclocked.

Figure 11. GRID

Figure 12. Hellgate London

Most felt that here was loading windows that usually takes about 50 seconds to just 16 seconds. Visible below the Super Pi 8M processor is very burdensome, terdongkrak far enough around 35%.

Figure 13. Loading Windows and Super Pi 8M

Thus the first article of this basic overclocking. In the next two articles, will be continued on memory overclocking and graphics cards, so the increase will be more tasteless.

Shutter Island: Full of Plot Twist!

noreply@blogger.com (Blog Darjo) — Sun, 7 Mar 2010 10:33:00 -0800

Be ready to welcome one of the best films of 2010. Shutter Island is a famous film director claim that Martin Scorsese adapted from the novel of the same name by Dennis Lehane. If you are a movie watcher, you are certainly familiar with the duo Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio. Two senior figures Hollywood is never shared in the three major film projects, the Gangs of New York (2002), The Aviator (2004), and The Departed (2006). Result, this third successful film earned income of tens of millions of dollars and won various prestigious awards. So what happened to their fourth film?

Read the title, you must be able to tell the story of this film has to offer. Shutter Island tells a mystery that happened in a remote island. The island was used as a center of "treatment" dangerous people of all time called Ashecliffe Hospital. State of post-World War II to make those people have a lot of trauma, deviance, and psychological disorders. The people treated in hospital has a terrible criminal record. If they qualify, they can do things that may never have imagined humans with a normal mind. Most of them never get out of the hall or even the island. Weighing their psychiatric illness caused them to eventually end up in the lock and key.

Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) is a U.S. Marshal assigned to investigate a case on the island. Together with his partner, Chuck (Mark Ruffalo), she must solve the mystery disappearance of a patient woman named Rachel Solando of guard Ashecliffe Hospital. This time led investigations into the hole Teddy big mystery that can never be solved. Any instructions that successfully obtained a Teddy feels that this case is full of conspiracy and high levels of psychological manipulation. Moreover, the past had experienced bitter Teddy makes more giddy and felt will never get out of the island.

What is the mysteries of the island? What a nightmare continued to disturb the mind and heart Teddy? Did Teddy solve cases that are handled and managed to get out of the island?
Mental game and the Plot Twist the Returning

Shutter Island is one film that managed to touch and push my mental and emotional. Teddy journey from ship to adventures in Ashecliffe Hospital made me like drifting into all the mysteries and conspiracies that occurred. All the pieces of events and puzzles that reveal the story makes this film even more unpredictable. You will really feel the despair and Teddy experienced daze.

Challenged to guess the plot of this movie? You should save your energy and follow the road movie in peace. If not, you will experience the same thing with Teddy: stricken with severe migraine.

This film has a level of difficulty is high enough. We are invited to think hard, to guess the mystery behind the mystery Ashecliffe Hospital and way of life Teddy Daniels. If you remember the movie Eastern Promises with a perfect fool the audience at the end of the story, Shutter Island, we deceive even from the beginning of this story begins!

Shutter Island can be considered as one of the cleverest films Scorsese has ever worked. With Leonardo DiCaprio as the central players, this film really deserves standing applause: acting in terms of the actors and actresses, packaging the story, until an artistic arrangement. And (again) this film directed by Scorsese slide smoothly into the top of the box office. This may be evidence of the quality of a Leonardo DiCaprio, which is increasingly showing its existence as one of Hollywood-quality actor.

If you want to search for entertainment on the weekends, this movie is not the right solution. But, if you want to feel the adventure and puzzle you play a mental, this movie should be, must, must you watch. Welcome frowned and berceletuk "huh?" Many times while watching this movie!

Combining extreme sports, fashion, music and art, Casio, bringing digital technology to be part of urban culture. A simple device like this has turned into an essential accessory.

You are familiar with the technology and have an active lifestyle certainly no stranger to the brand G-SHOCK. The name that is synonymous with 'toughness' is no longer only serve as a pointer of time. Published in many interesting shapes and colors, now this tool has also been integrated in fashion and become part of the action of artists and celebrities.

Kikuo Ibe: The father of Casio G-SHOCK. Watches his favorite is the G-SHOCK series at first.

Celebrating this, Casio, as the owner of the label hosted G-SHOCK "Shock The World". This annual event has visited 19 cities in 12. And on January 29, 2010, Shock The World rocked Velvet Underground at Zouk, Singapore. In this event displayed a variety of products the latest G-SHOCK including some special editions that only made very very limited. Shock The World Singapore also rang by the presence of the icon G-SHOCK.

Of disappointment
The idea of making their own G-SHOCK Kikuo Ibe came around the early 80's. By the time he accidentally dropped his favorite watch until damaged. This incident triggered an hour to design shock proof, and even weatherproof.
After more than two decades, the G-SHOCK not only meet the basic function as a timepiece. With the development and addition of various features, the current G-SHOCK has become one of the 'standard' in the industry hours.

ATI Card FASTEST

noreply@blogger.com (Blog Darjo) — Sun, 7 Mar 2010 06:38:00 -0800

Hemlock, that's the code name given to the ATI / AMD for a graphics card that has the highest current performance. Curious what that good gaming performance from this monster? Check out the following articles.

4th quarter 2009 until the article was made (Q1 2010), arguably the most productive period of the ATI / AMD graphics cards in producing the latest technology, DirectX 11 (Evergreen Series). As if he did not want to lose this momentum, ATI released a wide range of variants that have graphics cards DirectX 11 technology brings, from the series High End (Cypress), mainstream (Juniper), and about to be signed for entry-level series (Redwood). Still not satisfied flooding the market with new products, ATI wants to further strengthen its position by releasing a series of previous enthusiast has code-named Hemlock, and now officially called Radeon HD 5970. This is the latest flagship product from ATI, consumer-class graphics card is the fastest, at least until now.

Overview HD 5970

Radeon HD 5970 has the exact same architecture with the HD 5870. The difference, he has two GPUs on one PCB board. Previously, ATI-frills include "X2" for this kind of product, such as the Radeon HD 3870X2 and HD 4870X2, but the naming technique is now abandoned and ATI would prefer to use a naming convention based on the sequence number series. Thus, the Radeon HD 5970 is a version of "double" is faster than HD 5870. In addition to the amount of GPU, another difference lies in the core operating frequency, shader, and memory of the HD 5970 is slightly lower than the HD 5870. It is necessary to maintain the temperature and the operational power requirements from the Radeon HD 5970 in order to stay within safe limits. As this article was made, this graphics card in the official price with the price range of U.S. $ 610 to U.S. $ 650, which is almost close to the price of two HD 5850. Quite interesting considering that the specifications obtained from nearly 5970 is equivalent to two 5870 (Core, memory, and shader lower).

Provide dimensions of the chassis that can accommodate this graphics card as long as 30cm.

For the power connector can walk normally, graphics cards require a power connector 8-pin and 6-pin.

MSI HD 5970

The first vendor who sent HD 5970 samples to the lab is the MSI CHIP R5970. Overall, MSI graphics card uses reference specifications of the ATI HD 5970, with 725 MHz core clock, and the GDDR5 memory with effective clock 4000 MHz. Of course, the interesting part of MSI's graphics card was the availability of utilities tuning applications afterburner. With this application you can freely do tuning (overclocking) of these graphics cards, ranging from just a mild overclock to overclock by doing Overvoltage (increase voltage) is quite risky if done to excess. In the sales package include a converter to mini DisplayPort DisplayPort, but the converter is already commonly used, such as through a mini DisplayPort DVI, not provided.

"Clash Of The Titans"

In this test included two graphics cards comparison, the ZOTAC GTX295 from NVIDIA's enthusiast-class formerly known as the holder of the title fastest graphics card, and a PowerColor HD 5870 GPU with the same chip with the HD 5970 to compare how much difference in performance with a 5970 HD specifications twice as high.

Tests involving several real game tests, such as Crysis, Resident Evil, Left4Dead, and one of the games that utilize the latest technology DirecX 11, which Colin McRae Dirt2. Circuit testing software will show the differences of each performance graphics card. To maximize the performance of three high-end graphics card, the CHIP processor i7 Extreme 975 and 3:33 GHz overclock testing with 4.13 GHz processor to overclock the HD 5970 with approximately 10% of the default clock.

Initially, CHIP Eyefinity plans to test using the monitor with 3 pieces Full HD resolution of 1920 × 1080. Unfortunately, Eyefinity can only be used with two monitors, because DisplayPort should be used as a requirement if you want to use the LCD three or more.

Long Arm of the measure appears shorter GTX295 when juxtaposed HD 5970.

3DMark Vantage

Benchmark programs from Futuremark is one of popular program used to measure the performance of graphics cards. Setting used is Performance Mode Disabled PPU to the GPU features NVIDIA PhysX does not affect the overall value of this test.

Performance of the HD 5970 was remarkable, leaving the value of the difference GTX295 with nearly 2,000 points, while the system in an increase overclock very high values up to 23,461 points. This shows that the HD 5970 can still run faster with a faster processor. While HD 5870 still have to acknowledge the benefits of GeForce GTX295 which does have "raw power" greater. Radeon HD 5870 only the 17,152 figure recorded a point in this test. With the value of 20,927 (standard clock), Radeon HD 5970 faster about 15% compared to the 5870 HD rely solely on one GPU.

Crysis

This game does require the performance of a high graphics card to be able to play comfortably. Currently, some graphics cards are capable of running this game with the frame rate (fps) is quite comfortable in the eye. CHIP uses DirectX 10 mode with high settings and a resolution of 1920 × 1080.

From the graph of test results, see the difference the difference in performance more dilated when compared with the 3D Mark Vantage. With the value of 73.93 FPS, HD 5970 almost 40% faster than the HD 5870 (55.23 FPS), and approximately 15% faster than GeForce GTX 295. Uniquely, overclocking does not help improve scores because Crysis is not very sensitive to the increase in processor performance.

Batman Arkham Asylum

CHIP also includes benchmarks from game Batman: Arkham Asylum. CHIP uses very high settings. Resolution set at 1920 × 1080 without PhysX enabled feature.

ATI HD 5970 produces a very high score that is, 254 fps. Just as a test in Crysis, this game did not experience an increase in performance when the system overclock. (GPU Bound). In fact there is a decrease compared with 1 fps running system default. NVIDIA GTX 295 scores adrift far enough from the HD 5970, approximately 50 fps. HD 5870 can only produce 183 fps score.

In the test with the settings without PhysX ATI graphics card HD 5970 is still the fastest participant, and the GTX 295 is below. However, if the active PhysX settings, it will change 180 degrees.

Dirt 2

DIRT2, this is one game with DirectX 11 support that has been present since late last year. CHIP uses this game to test the ability of ATI Radeon HD 5970 in the run DirectX 11 games. CHIP also include any other graphics card is the ATI Radeon HD 5870. This game provides a benchmark feature for the graphics card. CHIP also tested graphics cards from NVIDIA, the GeForce GTX 295. CHIP test all these products with HD resolution, 1920 × 1080, and with maximum quality settings. Because using the highest quality settings, means the ATI Radeon HD 5970 using the full features of DirectX 11 on this game. While NVIDIA GeForce GTX 295 is limited to DirectX 10 mode, will only take advantage of all features in the DirectX 10 only.

Armed with two-chip GPU, the ATI Radeon HD 5970 can run this game fast. Frame rate (fps) are acquired, including high-resolution and quality settings like this. With overclock to 4:13 GHz processor and graphics card to increase the speed by 10%, CHIP only get a slight increase in frame rate is obtained. Dependence on the performance of graphics cards seems to make the frame rate in this game can not climb higher.

Meanwhile, the performance of NVIDIA GeForce GTX 295 and ATI Radeon HD 5870 adrift far enough below the ATI Radeon HD 5970. The difference reached the range of 25%. However, when using the NVIDIA GTX 295, the frame rate this game is still good enough that this game is still comfortable to play (although the effect is not as good as the ATI series 5).

Resident Evil 5

CHIP also tested HD 5970 graphics card with a horror-themed games from Capcom, the Resident Evil 5. This game provides a benchmark for graphics cards in DirectX 9 mode and DirectX 10. CHIP using Very High settings on DirectX 10 benchmark fixed mode, in order to test the game can be seamless.

The average score produced by the ATI HD 5970 with standard conditions is 127.4 fps. As in-overclock system, there is increased up to 10 fps (137.3 fps). This is enough to show that Capcom made the game engine is quite sensitive to changes in processor speed and graphics card. Can be seen from the chart on the side, the difference in frame rate with the 295 GTX, HD 5970 in the default condition clinged 11 fps. ATI HD 5870 here last performance positions.

Left 4 Dead

Other horror-themed games that test CHIP is Left 4 Dead. CHIP uses a homemade demo time specifically to test the performance of graphics cards and CHIP using Very High settings at 1080 × 1920 resolution. In this test, there was no significant difference in all the tested graphics cards. Even when overclocking the system in-one performance that is not the same as in-overclock. In addition, performance comparisons between the ATI HD 5970 and NVIDIA GTX 295 is only about 2 fps adrift alone. Compared with HD was 5870, a separate performance for only 4 fps.

Not complete it if the power consumption of each graphics card is not covered here. Of course, the use of high-end graphics cards also require high power consumption. This can be seen in the graph on the left. All graphics cards that use the CHIP test more than 125 watts. HD 5970 itself uses 298 watts, while the HD 5870 is slightly lower in power consumption of 256 watts. NVIDIA GTX 295 uses the greatest power on the test this time, by consuming 165 watts when idle and 352 watts when reaching full load.

Tips & Info

Should Prepared Before Using HD 5970

You intend to "adopt" this monster? CHIP provides some tips and important info to keep in mind, so that HD 5970 can run normally and optimally.

1. Prepare an extra wide chassis to accommodate extra-long graphics card is (30 cm). CHIP suggests a Full Tower case, and also with a good flow of water will make this case "nest" is convenient for HD 5970.

2. After a certain HD-5970 can be had in akomodir in your case, make sure that power supply you have 8-pin and 6-pin power connector, with a minimum rating of 650 Watt Pure Power. CHIP recommends 800 Watt power supply or more, if you use a lot of other peripherals, and to overclock.

3. The next stage, so this graphics card is running optimally, by ensuring the system (processor) you have fast enough to offset the speed of the HD 5970 graphics card, in order to reduce the bottleneck. CHIP recommend at least grade Core i7 processor. You can also overclock the processor to consider showing the maximum performance from this graphics card.

4. The last thing to note, but no less important is the display output. Is LCD display with Full HD resolution (1920 × 1080) is enough? Currently, graphics cards are designed to handle very high resolutions. With Eyefinity feature you can enjoy the game with a resolution of at least 3 fruit LCD Full HD (5760 × 1080) as well. Of course, resolution or wide visibility it would give the sensation of playing experience that much more exciting.

Conclusion
The fastest, sophisticated, Longest and Most Expensive

Holders of the new throne
Like the wheel of life, sometimes we are under, and one day we will all be back on top. This is constantly happening in the two eternal rivals ATI and NVIDIA. This time ATI was on the NVIDIA. HD 5970 GTX 295 outperformed success of the aspects of speed, technology, and power consumption required. Therefore be appropriate if the HD 5970 is called as the flagship product for the current best. It does not seem fair that these two graphics cards are born in different generations. Therefore, we wait for the answer to Nvidia from ATI's advantage as this.

Some other considerations
For the use of pure game play, graphics cards from ATI is indeed a very high performance. However, for the use of CUDA-based applications or DirectCompute, such as folding, video rendering, and games that use PhysX, superior HD 5970 will not be too visible. To OpenCL itself still not seeing implementation. Hopefully later in the future will have many applications that can take advantage of this.

Should be with DisplayPort
For those of you who plan to use a feature Eyefinity, make sure your monitor provides a DisplayPort input or you have prepared the appropriate converter. Eyefinity not be used in more than two monitors if DisplayPort connectors on graphics cards are not used. This is caused by the amount of output from the DVI / HDMI is limited. What matters is the current monitor with DisplayPort input is still very rarely available, and the ATI converter itself does not include this in the sales package. This can be quite constraining, because the price of the converter itself is quite expensive, which is about U.S. $ 99 for a product from Apple.
