Comments:
<0> Has anyone here looked at the Asus A8R-MVP? It uses Crossfire and is really cheap yet gets great reviews. I'm not a gamer, but I would like a solid board with good features and overclocking potential (low priority).
<1> crossfire is ****
<1> get a DFI nforce4
<0> not interested in gaming, and o/c is only a low priority.
<2> so?
<3> haah crossfire
<4> Crossfire is ATI right?
<2> get a nf4 card without SLI then.
<3> crossfire is inferior to sli
<3> yes
<1> ati can't make stable videocard drivers, what makes you think they can make decent chipset drivers
<4> Hmmm, I wonder if EVE is SMP aware.
<1> it's not
<1> or if it is, it doesn't use more then one cpu
<2> Hawkeye; use Process Explorer, enable thread display, see if it has child threads
<5> Gimp-Work: All I'm sayin' is that my ATI-on-Via system runs EVE great, and always has.
<5> :)
<1> it ran fine
<1> until it broke
<5> It's never broken on my system.
<5> Just sayin'.
<1> it's possible a reboot would fix my issue
<5> :-D
<1> since a reinstall did not
<0> I can't find one bad review for that cross-fire based board. I see lots of religiou arguments on NF4 vs CF, but nothing substantial.
<5> Gimp-Work: I'd try rebooting, then.
<2> b33b; you obviously don't want our opinions.
<2> b33b; so why are you here?
<6> Anyone know how to check to see if a program/service is running and if it's not, execute it through a .bat file?
<4> Weird. I could have sworn I had process explorer installed.
<0> sure I do - I just want to know if anyone has some concrete experience (reviews, owning the board, etc)
<1> hah
<1> fdiv, i changed res's and changed back, works now
<1> b33b, they, are, unstable.
<5> Gimp-Work: Nice.
<2> i wouldn't touch an ATI motherboard product. I'll tolerate their video cards for business graphics, or for embedded server graphics, and thats about it.
<5> Gimp-Work: You've experienced this instability first- or second-hand?
<1> yes
<5> k
<7> ZeKillers: net status
<0> Why DFI over ASUS?
<8> do you know if doing a repair xp reinstallation will reset the p***wordA?
<1> it's taking it's sweet time logging in
<4> Hmmm, an average of 25FPS running the game at 1280x960 ... I think that's decent for now ... considering my card.
<1> b33b, more stable
<7> er
<6> net status program.exe?
<2> MarEakin; no, it won't.
<4> !info ntp***word
<7> net statistics <thing>
<7> maybe?
<2> tasklist
<2> [for ZeKillers]
<0> gimp - the DFI LP UT Ultra-D? (S-939 / PCI-E / 8 Chan Karajan / S-ATA RAID / 2 GigLAN / 1394 / 10 USB / 2 YR warranty)
<1> hawk, 50fps
<6> I'm making an automated .bat file that'll check to see if a program is running, if it's not, it'll launch it.
<1> yes beeb
<6> I got the launching worked out.
<4> Which card in that machine?
<1> gf4 mx 4000
<4> And are you in station or space?
<1> but it's a dual opteron
<6> just not the if program is running.
<2> ZeKillers; probably be easier in WSH than in DOS batch.
<1> station, running in a window
<2> tasklist lists processoes
<1> undocking
<4> Gimp-Work, space is more FPS intensive.
<4> In a station I see 40+
<2> by various criteria. TASKLIST /?
<1> ~30fps
<4> So you're seeing about 10fps more than me.
<0> What about the MSI K8N (NEO4-F / NF4 / PCIex16 / 4 PCI / 4 SATA / nVRAID / GbLan / AUDIO / 2YR warranty)
<1> 40's now
<4> But isn't the MX4000 a better card than the 440?
<2> tasklist /fi "imagename eq mirc.exe"
<1> b33b, DFI > *
<2> C:\>tasklist /fi "imagename eq xyzzy.exe"
<2> INFO: No tasks running with the specified criteria.
<6> peerafk, mind if I PM you?
<0> gimp - I respect your opinion, but it seems like hardcore pc users prefer DFIs for their oc features... That may not be the same as a boring old user like me that wants a good quality stable board that I'll run for 4 years.
<0> Or is it?
<2> b33b; then get a Intel brand mobo, they are the stablest boards i've ever used.
<0> My 1700+ was such a good experience that I think I am loyal to AMD now
<1> beeb
<1> listen
<1> if a board can run 40% out of spec
<1> that means it runs REALLY well at stock speeds
<1> _REALLY_ well
<3> or they have underpowered it
<3> just to make it look like it can be OCED insanly
<2> chez; huh?
<1> huh?
<2> the specs are determined by the CPU and chipset.
<1> i have a DFI board with a 4400 x2 @ 3.3ghz, @ ddr550 @ cas 2
<1> that's a nice overclock
<3> 40% oc-ed is a **** load of overclocking
<1> oh, i also have 4 1gb sticks
<3> i find that hard to belive
<1> Chez, i didn't do the math
<1> figure out what my oc percentage is
<3> o you just used an arbritary number?
<1> i have a 2.2ghz chip, running at 3.3ghz
<1> that's actually more then 40%
<3> meh
<1> AND it's dualcore
<0> Gimp - thanks. For digital audio work (music) will I see much of a gain with a memory kit at 2-3-3 vs a single stick of samsung (3 CAS)?
<1> b33b, get regular Crucial ddr400
<9> anyone know vbscript?
<0> gimp - dual channel make much of a difference?
<1> yes
<4> Hmmm, name sounds familiar ... I think I might have met him once.
<10> Hello! Can anybody recommend me a good routing tool for Windows ? I got several internet connections and would like a tool able to parse IP ranges by ACL and also if it is possible,to do routing based on application,but that's not absolutely necessary.
<1> b33b, one sec
<1> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820146532
<1> get a pair of those
<1> or a pair of these -> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820146545
<1> and now, i'm gonna go home
<1> laters
<0> what about samsung ram? The place I'm buying the PC doesn't have crucial as an option. I'd like to get this in one spot.
<11> samsung ram is good
<0> The DFI LanParty boards seem to have a fan on the chipset. I was hoping to go with as quiet a system as possible... Comments on how loud the included fan is?
<12> i have a drive that windows sees as a GPT protective partion, how do i format it? windows wont let me
<2> roy_roy; never heard of a tool like that, routing is integral in the winsocket/tcp/ip stack, and is done by destination IP
<2> even with linux and iptables, I don't think you can route by originating process, just by packet filtering
<13> hrm, freebsd can do firewalling by uid
<2> its possible there's some ipt_ filters for that which I've never played with.
<2> but anyways, windows doesn't play that game.
<2> SDMF_: what is GPT ?
<2> oh, GUID Partition Table? you can't delete the partition(s) which are already there?
<2> b33b; put it in a good solid quiet case, like a coolermaster praetorian, and you won't hear a chipset fan. if you're not overclocking, you could probably replace the chipset heatsink with a larger one and rely on the air 'splash' from the CPU heatsink
<12> ya it won't let me do anything to it peerafk
<2> SDMF_: got a linux bootable CD handy? boot it to a rescue prompt, and use `dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1024` (***uming its the primary IDE drive. use /dev/hdb if its the 2nd, etc)
<2> or...
<2> !info ZAP
<2> or...
<2> !info DBAN
<2> you can configure a DBAN disk to prompt, and tell it to just zero the drive rather than do a full DoD erase
<14> Is there any way on an Exchange server to see when a user last check mail?
<13> mmmm emergency data destruction
<15> I guess those programs if used inaproporately is the fast way to get fired
<2> or, use whatever drive diagnostics your drive maker has.
<13> or what you do right before you get fired
<2> Cool_Cat; or land in federal court on an 'obstruction of justice' charge :D
<15> ya
