You'll notice in the above page that max clock speed has been stuck at around 3GHz since the P4. The improvements chipzilla makes nowadays is with new instruction sets, additional cores, cache memory, and chip die width. I even doubt if a C2D would be available on the market today, except as...

Unless they have a local distributor/dealer to handle RMA & warranty issues, how will this help? Without local distributor/dealer, you'll have to ship abroad to claim warranty, in which case, there's no difference between eVGA and any other brand. The only saving grace seems to be 'free...

Agree with ashis there. In fact, I'd doubt whether you'll have any perceivable difference in most tasks at all. I had a P4@3GHz with 2GB DDR RAM, and then moved to a C2D E6750@2.66GHz with 4GB DDR2 RAM. Frankly, I couldn't see any practical difference. I do occasional development on my PC, in...

Hmm. I guess you've trained your ears well. Just curious, what DAC are you using now ? Me, in a blind test, I think I would be hard put to tell the difference between Onboard, Xonar DX, and Xonar STX. I do really wish I could have done this blind test. Sadly, my onboard died a long time ago...

Sorry mate, it appears that your system does not have a line-out for the subwoofer. Usually its a single jack, with labelling like "Sub-Out" or "Subwoofer-Out". The above chain would have been like: DAC>Sanyo>Subwoofer It would still be possible to attach a subwoofer, but I think this...

To attach a subwoofer, your Sanyo system should have a provision for sending signal to the sub. With dedicate audio systems, the pre-amp or amp usually will have a seperate line for the sub. Check your manuals, or have a look at the rear panel to check it out. If there's none, then no point in...

I believe you should be able to do that, but I think you might need 3rd Party software (Blue Soliel ?) to do that. This is assuming your headset is using the standard bluetooth A2DP profile. The question is, do you really want to be doing that ? Almost all mobile headsets are built with one...

I have the Nokia W701, which isn't the same as the above. However given my experience, I wouldn't ever look at Nokia IEMs again for Sound Quality. These are very convenient in that you get mic+iem, but the SQ is too horrible for music. They sound like they're muffled & veiled. Mids are...

Dude, I don't see a location on your profile, and you haven't mentioned it on your post too. So, where exactly is 'locally' ?

The products might be actually genuine, but it's very likely these are grey market prices. So the drawback would be no warranty. Check carefully on the warranty terms; whether its even available, and if so whether its dealer provided (grey market) or manufacturer provided.

Have you considered using a hands-free earphone+mic ? Since you're trying to avoid radiation, ignore Bluetooth sets & just look for plain wired sets. Also, many cordless phones operate at cellphone frequency (around 900 MHz if i'm right). I think they do this due to reduced interference at...

Hmm. A knife/weapon might be too extreme, but something like pepper spray, or chilli powder would be a good idea.

Anyone remembers "DiDi"? It a comedy mime airing on DD2; i think it was from Germany. Used to love it. Another German series I remember was "Der Fadher" or something, revolving around police. It used to air on DD2 in early morning (must have been around 5.30 or 6.30), and I could catch it only...

The "recommended" way for volume control is to always have all digital outputs at 100% (I guess that should include volumes on Foobar, Xonar Control Panel, & Windows Volume) and to have the analogue controls on amplifiers to actually control the volume. The reason to keep digital at 100% is that...

I believe linking to warez sites is strongly discouraged on TE, which is what i understand you're requesting here. You are not going to get it legitimately anywhere on the net. Well, maybe MSDN might possibly have it in their archives, but you'll need a MSDN subscription. Again, as others have...

Good review, though a bit lengthy A few questions (For completeness sake of the review, not that I intend to really buy this) 1.>Does the screen have auto turn-off ? OLED screens are susceptible to burn-in, so its useful to have it auto-off. 2.>How much heat during operation? I believe all...

Google 'Partedmagic'. Its a Linux based livecd running 'parted' software. Parted can resize, create, delete partitions.

Using proxies are OK for surfing the web. You do not want to use a proxy for confidential or finance related stuff. Do understand that all your traffic passes through the proxy so all your passwords, account information would be visible to anyone with access to the proxy server. If you really...

Yeah, the power situation in India just sucks. At your end, TN seems to be going through a crisis, and here at Bangalore we're now being treated to 4 hrs 'load-shedding'. My friends tell me that in many Karnataka villages, 'load shedding' is 6 hours or more . Why the state & central governments...

Perhaps some more details around what you think is lacking would be more helpful to people to put forward some suggestions. I'm sorta wondering if this is less an issue of amplification and more of an issue with the sound signature of the HD650. I've seen the HD650 being described as 'dark'...
