As a reference point, last year AMD had already sold over 20 Million APUs and many of those went into laptops. Kabini will definitely gain market share and offer consumers even more choices with its...

Naturally your system is likely to fail P95 once you OC it if it already does so stock.
There are numerous OC'ing guides online for the Phenom II CPUs but I'd start by bumping the vcore a step or...
FYI - high static pressure and low noise do not go together... :(
Be advised that the blade fan advertised static pressure is measured at essentially zero airflow. With actual airflow the SP...
If you're just gaming then you are unlikely to see an issue. The dropping of three cores after three hours can be caused by many things. Upping the vcore/CPU NB voltages may or may not help. Looser...
Richland is just a mild improvement over Trinity which is an excellent APU. Kaveri will be a big boost over Richland, even more than Jaguar/Kabini are.
Jaguar, Temash, Kabini and Richland is a pretty nice group of new APUs that have secured significant contracts for the PS4, Xbox, Wii and more. These new APUs not only offer a significant increase in...
Any of the brand name 1600 MHz. 8 GB. RAM kits will serve you just fine. There is no point in paying extra for higher frequency or lower latency RAM that doesn't deliver any tangible system...
I agree don't buy the HP which I have lots of experience with and do buy a Brothers which I also have personal experience with. I have been using the Brothers MFC-7860DW for over a year along side...
MSI has announced several iterations of AMD Richland A10-5750 powered gaming laptops. Richland offers up to 40% increase in GPU performance, a small increase in processor power, lower power...
Not necessarily... There are various formulations of TIM compounds and they do not all share the same physical characteristics including the perceived "drying out" characteristic which in some...
No actually 99% doesn't go to the water which is why I and Stewie007 both indicated that the only means to know how much the vinyl will affect the CPU/GPU temp is to actually test it.
The issue...
The waterblock absorbs some of the heat from the water which is then absorbed by the air. 100% of the heat pulled from the CPU does not go to the rad. That's why covering the waterblock is not...
I like the HWiNFO program a lot. Thanks for your efforts.
Vinyl most definitely will trap heat that is normally taken away via air. How much is difficult to predict other than checking the CPU/GPU temps before and after. You might be able to use spray paint...
The box is empty on both the Mushkin and G.Skill DIMMs I have.
APUs shipping to OEMs in Q4, laptops and PCs actually available in Q1 of '14, subject to changes as we are still 6 months from launch. It would be great if they surprised and pulled Kaveri forward...
Kaveri desktop probably won't arrive until Q1 of '14.
Kaveri is going to be a game changer for sure and a great leap forward for both laptop and desktop users. As noted AMD APUs will eventually cover all segments of laptop, desktop and to a degree...
There are plenty of good HSFs that do not cause any space issues even in SFF. I wouldn't suggest a 140mm fan for a SFF. The Hyper 212 is an excellent HSF and very cost effective.
The primary gain with IB over SB is reduced power consumption. Performance is only marginally better clock-for-clock.
So far it looks like Haswell has been really over-hyped as far as actual performance.
In regards to Haswell's VR it's not going to be easy to surpass a built in VR. Perhaps a mobo trace...
Thermalright has always delivered good quality and performing HSFs. I laugh at the constant increase in fan size however. Soom they will be using 300mm fans or scramjet tech to cool CPUs. :)
The Prolimatech PRO-PK3 is expensive and more difficult to apply properly. It tend s to deliver a couple degrees reduction but that is insignificant in actual performance. It's lifespan is...
Windows error messages are not very useful IME and can lead you on a wild goose chase. I've seen it show kernal errors when it doesn't like RAM timing settings and also with add on gadgets that work...
If you have real hardware stores where you live, count your blessings. :up:
3mm screws even in a good U.S. hardware store would be the exception, IME.
