idle power of 8500 GT by
[email protected]
I got a PC which had a Sapphire HD4870 graphics card.
I measured the idle power draw of the PC, and it was 249 W. I thought
the HD4870 might have something to do with this, as it has two extra
power connectors. I have another PC containing this card, and it can
get hot. I do not need a powerful...

Combatting Oscillation with randomness for cooling fans and harddisks. by
Skybuck Flying[_7_]
Hello,
I just cleaned my PC today and I just noticed the fans started humming in
sync. They were all running at the same speed. Perhaps the humming is cause
by some dust which is on the fan blades, I am not sure, ultimately this
build up probably leads to them oscillating in sync. Like soldiers...

what cards can drive multiple 2560x1600 screens? by
[email protected]
A former classmate, now working for an oil company, boasted that they
have a workstation with 3 monitors - nothing new there.
But he said each monitor is 2560x1600.
So I presume this system has two cards. And since DVI can only spew out
1920x1200 (unless you choke the refresh rate), these must be...

why don't card manufacturers say how much power it uses? by
[email protected]
Is it the case that the GPU model and frequency and amount of RAM
will fix the power draw, regardless of brand name? Then I suppose
you could trawl through data sheets and figure something out.
One might make assumptions of maximum possible power if it is a
slot-powered card of PCI express version...

do 2560x1080 displays have an alphabetic *GA name yet? by
BW[_4_]
Most resolutions have a designation such as WXGA, QXGA, WSVGA, HD et
cetera.
I have only seen the 2580x1080 referred to as "wide HD" or "ultrawide"
in some reviews
and adverts.
Has VESA or whoever given up assigning names to these things?

The GTC 2013 keynote wasn't as exciting as previous years, it was actually
quite boring except for a few nice things and even one slightly exciting
thing.
Many items were discussed which were already presented last year, like path

I updated my nVIDIA GeoForce 8800GT driver a week or so ago to version

Earth tours) and the frame rate dropped from its typical 20-30 fps to an
unacceptable 5-6 fps. Some googling last night revealed that it's a...
