Intel is suppposed to switch their desktop line to a brand new architecture closer to the A64 and Pentium M (i.e. lower clockspeeds, more work done per clock cycle) around the summer.
Well, that would be a nice change for Intel. I thought they are going to release a completely CPU design with new CSI bus technology around late 2007 to early 2008?
yea i heard about that, starting to get on my neves the ammmount of times they change the soc.'s of there boards..
Easily 98, i mean they skrewed it up so bad they needed a re-release, even at a investors expo for microsoft bill gates managed to get The BSOD, and when i installed it, after about 5 mins of installing programs (no internet) the thing crashed and i lost EVERYTHING
I strongly feel that harddrive companies are lazy as heck. I mean, look how long they all have been making 7200RPM drives. Garbage, they should of been at least 10,000RPM to 15,000RPM right now as a strict standard.
And high end HD's like SCSI should be at least pumping with more than 20,000RPM to 30,000RPM.
Heck, if I was CEO of a HD company, I would have already had a HD break threw with a 15,000RPM HD, a 24MB buffer cache & SATA2 aling with new innovative technology firsts into that HD for a decent price. But that would be me, IMO
HD companies have been very lazy selling there non-innovative HD's for loads of money while AMD, ATI, Intel & NVIDIA & other DDR companies are hard at work trying to increase performance.
Well, the problem is the HD, if you have a slow system but it is suppost to be faster, well, your HD is holding you up IMO.
Later,
I agree, but with 20,000RPM hard drives, the cost of the drive jumps and so does the amount of cooling required to keep the drive cool.
lol at that speed you just need to stick afew blades on the disk and you could cool your whole pc :D
