    Sexy Vanilla Freshness got a reaction from skullbringer in Samsung 840 Evo SSD Performance Degradation   
    Please tell me more about how TLC NAND is a wise choice.
     
    At this price point we now have the Crucial MX100 with a solid controller and MLC flash, yet still people flock to 840 EVO in droves, why?

    I think it is rather certain that if they were to meet they would both receive wounds that wound eventually be fatal.
    The tiger relies on suffocating to kill, it will not be able to rip the muscle fast enough, or brake the bones of the bear.
     
    The bear will kill the tiger much sooner.

    The spine is covered in muscle, the tiger would create a bleeding wound, but the bear would be able to get a bit or a swipe in at that point.
    The tiger relies on getting on top of its prey. It weighs them down while SUFFOCATING then, it needs to stay on the throat. It will not stay there it the bear hits it.

    Microsoft is holding a press event today in San Francisco. They started off by trolling and saying Windows 9 will be "Windows One" but shortly afterwards said that has already been done. After being trolled by Microsoft they confirmed that it will be Windows 10. At the end of the event Microsoft confirmed that Windows 10 will be shipping "later in the year" 2015.
     

     

     

     
    More info:
     "Windows 10 will be compatible with all the traditional management systems used today." Microsoft doesn't know how to count (can someone make a Count Dracula from Sesame Street meme) "We want all these Windows 7 users to have the sentiment that yesterday they were driving a first-generation Prius... and now with Windows 10 it's like a Tesla." "It gives the familiarity of Windows 7 with some of the elements of Windows 8." They are showing a lot about the desktop and how it is welcoming to Windows 7 users Multitasking seems very similar to OS X's Expose and Mission Control, which is good as I love those features in OS X You can now Ctrl+V in command prompt along with many other additions  The Windows 8 Charm bar is still there for Windows 8 users that have touch screens Start screen in touch mode  
    "Starting tomorrow we're going to launch our Windows Insider Program." "We're inviting our enthusiastic fans to evaluate it with us. We know they're a vocal bunch." Windows 10 shipping "later in the year" in 2015.

    Sexy Vanilla Freshness reacted to maxib7 in Thank you Linus   
    Going into my Sophomore year of high school I didn't know what I was going to do with my life at all, and one day I was watching youtube videos  when I came across a LinusTech video   (I can't remember which one). It looked interesting and I started watching more. Soon I wanted to build my own computer because he made it look so easy and fun. So that Christmas I got all the parts together and built my first computer (It was awesome!). That sparked a love for technology that kept me wanting to learn more, and it caused me to stumble upon programming which became a bit of an obsession for a while; and still is a passion of mine. This new passion gave me new motivation to learn and want more out of life. I actually wanted to do something with my life now.
           
               So here I am today. I have been talking to a couple recruiters and I'm hoping to join the NROTC program and go to Ohio State to major in computer(software) engineering (or possibly computer science but there still kind of similar majors) and join the Marine Corps to become an officer (the recruiters tell me my chances are good so I'm hopeful. Even if that doesn't work out, I still have backup plans but no matter what at least I know what I want to do with my life. If it wasn't for LinusTech I still probably wouldn't know what to do after high school.
     
    **NROTC is a program which gives you a large scholarship to select colleges and in return you sign up to do Officer Candidate School in the Marines after college to put it very simply
    here's a link to it if anyone's interested https://www.marines.com/becoming-a-marine/commissioning-programs/four-year-colleges/nrotc

    Sexy Vanilla Freshness got a reaction from WarlockTheWise in G-Sync has a big flaw that nobody is talking about   
    framerate has peaks, so you're dealing with a monitor that has variable responsiveness as well as refresh rate.

    Sexy Vanilla Freshness reacted to Belmire in G-Sync has a big flaw that nobody is talking about   
    I've spent about 4 days with the Rog Swift from Asus (144hz, Gsync, 1440p). Running a single 980 for now (second on the way). I've tried a bunch of first person shooters (BF3, BF4, Crysis 3, Crysis 2, Wolfenstien, etc...) and I've not had a single issue with input lag. Everything is liquid smooth and the mouse feels like I have vsync off. The experience has been nothing but positive.
     
    Gsync was made to work at variable frame rates. If you're already maxing out your non-gsync 60hz monitor and switch to a gsync 60hz monitor at the same resolution, it's completely useless. A 4k 60hz gsync monitor would make much more sense than a 1080p 60hz gsync monitor since you'll be hovering around 30 to 50fps at such a high resolution (depending on quality settings and video cards).
     
    I don't have another gsync monitor to compare it to but the Asus Rog Swift is a crazy monitor and I don't regret forking over a wheel-barrel full of cash for it. Not for a second.

    This is no real news:

     
    It will be interesting to see how Adaptive Sync will tackle this issue. I believe we will start having graphics card drivers, set an fps max in games, that does not exceed max hz on the monitor, or games might get that as a setting in the future. I think the first makes the most sense.
