    I'm not sure it would be possible.

    Antminers and similar hardware is built on specialty ASICs that are designed to do nothing but the same (relatively few) calculation steps over and over. In...

    What were you testing to/from for this, and for what purpose? Work, or something for home...?

    Either way, hot speed :up:

    Happy Boxing Day!

    Just bringing a bit of cultural diversity here. Ever since I've moved to America, I've discovered that no-one down here knows about this Canadian calendar staple - so I thought I'd try to broaden a...

    I'll echo sentiments above... overclocking just ain't what it used to be. Now it's a consumerized product, and you need to pay extra to be able to do it well.

    Not to get all "back in my day", but...

    I think one of these days I'm going to get around to making a sticky about load balancing, it seems to come up pretty regularly and we never end up saying anything new...

    There is not the slightest chance I would ever buy this product - that price is completely unreasonable. For the cost difference vs. ECC memory alone you could actually probably just move to a...

    I don't understand what you're saying here. In the US and abroad product manufacturing was farmed out to countries with cheaper labor because it was not cost-effective to produce items in-country;...

    When they called my mom they claimed to be from Microsoft and had her open up Event Viewer, then claimed that all the errors were signs of viruses. Really a pretty great scam, as far as they go.

    I'm not sure about the router, I've never heard of port-based QoS (packets can be marked with QoS; thus QoS should be based on the packets, not the input interface), but provided it works why not. ...

    Bitcoins are an electronic currency. Currently the vast majority of hard currency pumped through the system is actually illegal funds, as criminals (scammers, phishers, etc) can wash real money into...

    How many phone lines do you have that you want to save money on? What are you looking at for VoIP?

    I know of a few hosted VoIP solutions that send out phones/switches for a good monthly rate,...

    I wonder how much they plan to simulate and what they plan on learning, exactly.

    It was just 2 years ago that scientists using BlueGene-L were only able to simulate a few particular functions of...

    I'll wait for word on pricing to commit to saying anything, but at this point it looks like a decent case. That fan snap over the second hard drive area will surely get them some business among...

    It is a nice concept though and it will be nice to see them on shelves... when they get them working properly. And a decent review too, actually. The author had a few...

    One last try and I'll stay out of the thread from here on, I promise.



    Perhaps I did not word "A" specifically enough for you; allow me to detail the reasoning behind it.

    Even in imperfect situations he is wrong. Using more power initially - even if the steady-state power draw is the same - is the very definition of not using the same amount of power. I did specify...

    No, that's a logical fallacy. "It will only consume extra power" does not go hand-in-hand with "consume less power". At best you are going for a long-term near-equality. Also, as pointed out...
