  1. The fact that they use a Macbook Air as a reference for clockspeeds makes the article a lot less trustworthy.

     

    The fact that they use a MacBook is that because its one of the most popular laptop. So its easier to undestand how graphene stuff can be way more powerful, to people that are non-enthusiast or don't really understand.

    Graphene is wickedly conductive, which is important. A graphene transistor was clocked at 427 GHz. Not to get all Doc Brown on it—427 GHZ!—but that’s insane in the membrane (i.e., insane in the brain). An 11-inch MacBook comes with a stock processor running at 1.3 GHz. So a graphene-based processor, in theory, could run 300 times that. Zoom-zoom, know what I’m sayin’?

  3. Not for 10bit, quadro is really needed for that, and a titan would be good for editing since it's mass amount of cuda cores. 

    Thanks for the laugh, 4k$ gpu (quadro) or 1k gpu for youtube video (which are probably encoded with H.264). Oh and, most of Adobe software that work with Cuda (Premiere Pro at least if you tweak it since CS6) doesn't even use 2688 Cuda Cores (for the Titan).

     

    Anyway, there is no point AT ALL to spend thousand on a graphic card when you can have more or less the same amount of cuda cores on lower graphics card i.e 780 with 2304 cuda cores.

    Hell even a 680 is a better bet compared to a Quadro.

     

    Last but not least, video editing software doesn't require that much of power. Even on my old 1156 plateform with a gtx 275 (240 Cuda Cores) I was able to render and edit tons of shit in AE and Premiere Pro.

    (click Video Card, check All.)

     

    Edit : 10bit for video uploaded on youtube, its kinda pointless. 

  4. I've spent  $9,296.53 on computer stuff, however add like 800 or so from eBay as it only shows like the past 90 days and I've built 2 PC's off of used parts from there and then some :)

     

    Spent more in less time ! I beat you ! hehe

    Reading a post like that, I feel less alone ^^' but I also thought that people like us have a little problem of money management :D

  5. Of course it looks embellished. Its an out-there story which is why i posted it. This isnt facebook or twitter where you post every little thing that happens in your life

     

    But you've just posted something that happened in your life.

  6. LA 4days will have a hire car

    Vegas 7days

    Miami 7days will have a hire car

    New York 10days

     

    Good luck mate, I've visited Miami a couple of time, always had to deal with douchebags. So yeah. Good luck :) (try to avoid them when you can)
