The 3DGS Nerd » pc http://3dgsnerd.xware-cg.com A blog about 3DGS, Nerds and a lot of other stuff Mon, 07 Dec 2009 23:54:59 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 en hourly 1 New System http://3dgsnerd.xware-cg.com/new-system/ http://3dgsnerd.xware-cg.com/new-system/#comments Tue, 10 Feb 2009 14:43:43 +0000 Michael Schwarz http://3dgsnerd.xware-cg.com/new-system/ Got my new PC parts yesterday. Oh my god. I can’t believe what I missed out all these years. Changing from Single Core to dual core is like changing from a tricycle to a Formula 1 race car. Operations that ran at 5 MB/s before now run at 60 MB/s. WHAT A DIFFERENCE! Well okay, each core also is twice the speed the processor I had before.

Here’s my old system:

AMD Athlon 2000+
2 GB RAM
GeForce 6200

now compare that to my new baby:

AMD Athlon64 X2
2 GB RAM in DualLink(?)
GeForce 9800 GTX+

Only thing I need now is a new Power Supply so I can get the most out of my little GeForce baby. Holy cows. I’m so thrilled with all my new toys!

Got my iPhone today. Got it from ebay, used. It’s cool and it works. Only that the article was very, very literal. I only got the iPhone. No Accesories, no cables.

Now I had to order a iPhone USB cable so I can at least do anything…

Anyway, I’m glad I get to do a bit of PC assembling and Windows-XP-Installing today, a quite relaxing start into the week. Always makes me a bit happy, I like assembling PC’s and installing Windows. Relaxing, not much to do, and something that can keep someone busy all day long with a bit of (bad-) luck.

Now playing: Tegan and Sara – Monday Monday Monday [If It Was You]
