Here's the url to the video card I currently have installed on my computer:
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/Se...&CatId=1560 This PCI Express card has ports for 1-VGA
and 1-DVI monitor. The card states that it features Dual-monitors so what I'm wondering is that
if I connect 1 VGA monitor simultaenously with a DIV monitor on ONE video card, would I be able to
use both? Thus, giving me dual-monitors?...

Intel has cut the prices of its core2 duo processors again despite its profits falling as a result
of this price war. The 2.8 Ghz E6700 has been made cheaper by 40% and E6600 by 30%. But with
AMD's Barcelona chip around the corner, we can expect more price cuts. So PC buyers everywhere a
wait is advised....

The eagle-eyed folks over at MacRumors spotted an advertisement on Apple's UK store that showed
an eight-core Mac Pro desktop. Presumably the Macintosh would use two Intel Quad-core chips. Apple
has since removed the ad from the store website. Rumors that Apple would incorporate two of
Intel's Quad-core chips into a Mac Pro to produce an 8-core Mac Pro have been gongoing since
late last year. Now that is a powerhouse... I bet it friggin' flys! Good show Peevles, I
luff Mac shtuff...

I have been looking at notebook computers, and have noticed that appears to be the latest in power
boosting, the dual core. Now I was wondering a few things about a dual core. Firstly, If the
description says 1.67 gHz dual core, is that the equivalent of having two 1.67 ghz processors, or
two 800ish mHz processors? Secondly, If I had the choice of getting a note book with a 2.2 gHz
processor, or a 2 gHz dual core processor, all other specs are the same, which would be the better
deal? And lastly, for now, I understand that WinXP Pro is required when you have two process...

Hey there, well i had a dual monitor set up which i used to run perfectly. I have a monitor that
runs 1680x1050, thats my main display. I had a 17 inch which i ran 1024x768 I think, i am not really
sure, I had a friend set it up for me a long time ago, and now he moved and I don't talk to him
anymore. The problem i had was that I tried to add a bigger monitor a 19 inch i believe, I couldnt
get that to work either, but I figured it was to much, and my 17 inch was fine for what I was doing.
Now the problem I have now, is that I am trying to add the 17 inch back, and ...

Id like to buy a double screen capable video board, so that I can have two independent monitors in
the same computer at the same time. Ive been searching a little bit, but whether on the net or in
local stores it seems I just cant find one... does any one know something about this? I would really
apreciate light on this matter......

Another question... I have been trying to choose between an AMD (left one) processor or an Intel
(right one). I have been customizing both of them to find the lowest price. If I choose an Intel,
I will have the 256MB NVIDIA® GeForce® Go 7600 Video Card. If I choose an AMD, I will have the
128MB ATI RADEON® XPRESS 200M w/Hypermemory™ Video Card. What will the difference be if I
choose the AMD over the Intel? Is this a good idea or not? I have never had an AMD computer so I am
not sure. Basically, will it effect me if I choose the AMD, I'm not doing any ...

I got a Dell D600 Centrino and I want to sell it. I would like to get a new laptop but now I see AMD
has a kick *arse* Turion CPU and I would like to know how does it compare with the Intel Centrino. I
like my current Centrino because it runs cooler compared to the P4 and does the job done. How does
the AMD compare with the Intel Centrino for the low power heat? Also for games, would the Intel
Centrino or AMD be my choice. kservice...

QUOTE DECEMBER 30, 2005 (IDG NEWS SERVICE) - After 15 years of service as a tool to teach
consumers what brand of chip to ask for inside a personal computer, Intel Corp. has decided it's
out with the old "Intel Inside" campaign in favor of a new logo and tag line that includes the
phrase "Leap ahead." The logo and tag line will be formally announced on Tuesday. As part of
the major rebranding effort, the 37-year-old Intel logo -- its name in lowercase letters and a
dropped "e" -- which was created by Silicon Valley pioneers Robert Noyce and Gordon Moore, ...

QUOTE SAN FRANCISCO (Business 2.0 Magazine) - Much to Wall Street's dismay, Intel is
continuing to invest billions of dollars in Itanium, a chip that most of the industry has written
off. Itanium, Xeon, Woodcrest and Opteron Itanium introduced after ten years in 2001, with no
64-bit software to run and its crappy performance for 32-bit software is already cost a lot to
Intel. AMD took the advantage and with its Opteron chip in 2003 which ran both 32-bit and 64-bit
software. Intel’s effort to adapt a 32-bit chip to run 64-bit software also (Xeon) is no good...

Some time ago news came out, that Apple is breaking a contract with IBM company, which has till now
produced all the processors for all of the apple personal computers. Now roomers became reality and
Intel is becomin a new official processor supplier for Apple. Till the summer 2006 processors in
computers for less-demanding users (eMac, Mac Mini, ...) will be replaced and somewhere in the
middle of 2007 Intel chips are goin to be in the Power versions of Macintoshs also. It is
interesting, if Apple will change to x86 and follow the rest of PC manufacturers (Dell, HP, IB...

According to inquirer, AMD published a comercial in a few american newspapers (Wall Street Journal,
USA Today, San Francisco Chronicle and others) in which AMD processor stands in a fighting ring and
waits for his Intel opponent. That was a move, with which they are tryin' to stimulate Intel to
accept a battle in which both new two-core processors would be tested by an impartial company. AMD
claims that this would be the only way for users to know which processor to choose.. Well Paul
Ottelini, CEO of Intel have easily turned down the challenge. If you want to know...

Hi can anyone tell me what is the difference between Intel Centreno and Intel Mobile processors
other than that Intel Centreno having in-built Wifi card. I have a 2 year old dell laptop which is
having Intel mobile 2.6 Ghz processor. But when i see the latest laptops in market, all having intel
centreno 1.6, 1.7 ghz processors.. How come they are lower then mine? /wink.gif' border='0'

I've bought a dell dimension 3000 desktop with 256MB. To add more memory, I find the clause
"dual channel DDR". It says dual channel will give higher performance. This make me headache and
try to find out what is it. Generally speaking, with this technology, the speed of memory I/O will
be doubled. So the question comes, how can I get the "dual channel". After research several days,
I got these answers. 1 To support dual channel, the chips on your mother board must support dual
channel, such as Intel 865, 875. 2 There is no dual channel DDR memory or non-dual c...

Money is not really a problem, but I want a STABLE system for extreme gaming. At this very moment,
